I'm a man I gotta care 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 can't say goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the
I say goodbye, to the hood Goodbye, to the Goodbye, to the
I can't say goodbye goodbye to the 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 Plus my hood lost another homeboy Another one got life and we know, if he coming home boy
They in the tell me, "Just leave it alone boy Let them do them take 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 Banging for the turf, late night Puttin' me in work, good day comin', airbrush, Pay day, get the spot, got my hair cut
Made mom when I wouldn't go to church Yeah I live in the but I think 21st I know since I left that gotten much worse But I'd be there, if I couldn't write a verse
I'm a man I gotta take care of my Fighting pressures in my life I know my mind should be on shining and getting But these won't say a goodbye I say goodbye
To the the blocks raise me The enemies and the homies that Me tough to hang on the corners that would mold me Critics wonder if I'm be the old me
But if the the old me ever left Then don't really know me And don't know, we don't change, we become OG You addicted to the life, you just don't OD
I owe the before they owe me Took me in when my didn't want me To wild to be a child and cops not now All I got now is the
To me, how to be a man an' what not How to brake ounces in the grams an' not The reason I'm so with my hands and what not S***, you I forgot, man
I'm a man I take care of my family Fighting these pressures in my I my mind should be on shining and getting Grammy's But these won't say a goodbye I can't say
Thank every day that the boy could spit And all around the world they enjoyin' my I know I got more wars to get I got a wife and some gorgeous kids
But it be right if I ignore the s*** They made me how I am, the in the man Told me that I can for the world gave a If it for my ****, they sayin' stick to the plan
Probably be a gun instead of a pen in my Probably be doin' a dub [Incomprehensible] 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 when I get spins All I had was the when I didn't have kids If it all come down and my was to end I'm my name would live in the streets
I'm a man I gotta take care of my Fighting these pressures in my I know my mind should be on and getting Grammy's But these streets say goodbye
I say goodbye Goodbye, I can't say Goodbye,
I say goodbye Goodbye, I say goodbye Goodbye,
You can the man out the streets But you take the streets out the man
