I'm a man I take care of my family Fighting these in my life I know my should be on shining and getting Grammy's But streets won't say goodbye
I say goodbye, to the blocks Goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the
I can't say goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the
I can't say goodbye to the blocks to the streets Goodbye to the
I say goodbye, to the hood Goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the
I guess it's true, you take the hood out a homeboy my hood just lost another homeboy Another one got life and we don't know, if he coming boy
in the street tell me, "Just leave it alone boy Let do them take care of your own boy" But I said, "Back brake a bound, I was drome boy You had of being a dope boy"
Yeah, I was from the po po for the turf, late night huntin' Puttin' me in work, day comin', airbrush, shirt Pay day, get the spot, got my cut first
Made mom when I wouldn't go to church Yeah I live in the burbs but I 21st I know since I left it's gotten much worse But I'd be there, if I couldn't write a verse
I'm a man I gotta care of my family Fighting these in my life I know my should be on shining and getting Grammy's But these streets say a goodbye I say goodbye
To the the that raise me The enemies and the that made Me tough to hang on the corners that would mold me Critics if I'm tryna be the old me
But if the thing the old me ever Then they don't know me And don't know, we don't change, we become OG You always addicted to the life, you just OD
I owe the streets they owe me Took me in my momma didn't want me To wild to be a child and not around now All I got now is the
To me, how to be a man an' what not How to brake in the grams an' what not The I'm so nice with my hands and what not S***, you I forgot, man
I'm a man I take care of my family Fighting these in my life I know my mind be on shining and getting Grammy's But these won't say a goodbye I say goodbye
Thank good every day the boy could spit And all the world they enjoyin' my s*** I know I got plenty wars to get I got a beautiful and some gorgeous kids
But it wouldn't be right if I ignore the made me how I am, the music in the man Told me I can for the world gave a damn If it wasn't for my ****, sayin' stick to the plan
be a gun instead of a pen in my hand Probably be a dub [Incomprehensible] with my man The say streets but they don't really understand All I had was the block, when I have fans
Wrapped on the corners I couldn't get spins All I had was the homies when I have kids If it all down and my career was to end I'm my name would live in the streets
I'm a man I gotta take of my family these pressures in my life I know my mind be on shining and getting Grammy's But these streets say goodbye
I say goodbye Goodbye, I say goodbye Goodbye,
I say goodbye Goodbye, I can't say Goodbye,
You can the man out the streets But you take the streets out the man
