So a n***a ain't have no direction

Locked up in my own mental prison

Suicide on my mind no one listen

Made a n***a remain so distant

From the ones that could help me cope with it

Heart closed n***a feeling indifferent

Can I stand on my own

Pain on my dome f**king up my zone

Dreams surrounded in darkness heartless

Mind f**ked up thoughts littered with garbage

Desolate minds so my pace move lethargic

All of this pain is what made me an artist

Picked myself up off the ground

Push a n***a forth where they chalk them out

Need it to rain in my endless drought

Cause all a n***a rivers filled up with doubt

Free free let me tell you what I mean

Cause a n***a grew up in the coldest of streets

Hood real gutta make ya fold up your dreams

Old school system bring the clones from the weak

Robbing they stealing but the plot only thickens

Cause the cops hitting n***as 'fore they reach for the phone

Try intervention but the confidence missing

So they got all the children and they stripped off my hope

D**n d**n feeling like death

Where do you turn when a n***a need help

Trapped in your conscience your conscience gon' melt

You busy watching what they do and you fail

I'm try'na show you that a n***a been there

Crucify myself a story to tell

If you thinking that you stuck in a jail

The key is in the room you standing

Right there

When you lost in this world man it's hard to relate

And your back's on the wall only choice is go straight

Road signs left right which path do you take

Only one lead the way

Tell me which one that's down for your faith

N***a which path you gon' choose

Both got they perks but one is for the few

Other is bright and gold and shining too

Either one you pick you win or you lose

One is for the dark and one is for truth

One will keep the voices one is on mute

One will keep you hanging inside a noose

Other teach you all the ways to unloose

Woke up from a dream we're still in

Will we ever break free from these chains on skin

Got an axe in a flash we'll be back making sense

Bring it back on her a*s mine blowing in the wind

Bold thoughts of a king go hard but f**k brain

So hard to sustain just a product of the game

Young ace hit the safe get involved with the snakes

Pull your car better keep a guard n***as might take everything

Had to clean my karma now there ain't no drama

Always felt like the target with a chink in my armour

I'm taking s**t from my father never listen why bother

Too lost in the ego could've tried way farther

Cause my dogs they lethal get a path they eat you

Had to get up get out of the track they lead you

But we live now that cali lifestyle my eagles

Had the wars peaceful had to stop and eat full

Used to bang with the dirt quickly leave you blood stained

Pants hanging and things changed n***a f**k fame

Through the pains they could see the sun cause we up late

Hitting jane writing to the d**gs but the sub cray

Remember thinking is this gonna pay off

Is a n***a really gonna have to get a day job

Till my n***as load the guns hit the streets then we mob

No shoulder to lean on to show my allegiance the worth of bond

12 years old when I took my first toke

Then I never looked back since then been ghost

Soul is gravitated to this s**t that stayed away the most

If my mama only knew about the s**t that I indulged

Would've been without a home probably laid up with a stone

Was a stinky little brat stuffed packs under my stove

Burning dodie in the crib but shhh nobody knows

Showing up to every period smelling like an o

When you lost in this world man it's hard to relate

And your back's on the wall only choice is go straight

Road signs left right which path do you take

Only one lead the way

Tell me which one distant from your faith

N***a which path you gon' choose

Both got they perks but one is for the few

Other is bright and gold and shining too

Either one you pick you win or you lose

One is for the dark and one is for truth

One will keep the voices one is on mute

One will keep you hanging inside a noose

Other teach you all the ways to unloose

What you gon' choose
