Luyện nghe bài hát Like It Is

I tell it it is, then how it could be

or hell boy, freedom or jail boy
A Jansport bag full of I could sell for
The higher, the low boy, me and my homeboys
The police us so we made up our own laws
Been fighting this long war, there's in this shores sand
Still young but a grown man, could tell by my
Been stackin' and problems as I wait for the rapture
Death never been no threat, I be chillin',
Everybody

I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the I've done
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To make my momma proud, feel like her son
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
With everything I need, with I want
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To do it like nobody has ever

I was in seventh grade my grandfather told me don't get caught
Lovin' the streets cause they never love you back
But I feel like it's all we got so it's all we really do
At the end of the day I feel the problem is the people that control
It don't really come from here, so they do nothing but look down on us
We look at them, we see somebody that could
but they look at us and all see is a nigga
It don't really anyway, we all gon' die one day man, one day

Do doves cry when the man dies, or do we croak with crows
The young catch gun shots, the old catch the ghost
Ho I love not, I never no pot of gold
Just ball windows and six fours with no
Was broke with no bitches, she me though
You'll kill me if it make you richer, you screaming, you my brother for
Heart is where the hatred is, the brain that the love below
And life is you make it so I'm makin' money for my folks

I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the I've done
I gotta be, I be, I gotta be the one
To make my momma proud, feel her only son
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
With I need, with everything I want
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To do it like nobody has ever

When people look at a person who does what I
Do look at us with these preconceived notions as if
a set way for us all to be, but we all people at the end
Of the day so I wonder why we don't treat other like it
You're looking at a telling them that they story don't
Matter when they're no better than me, walkin' down the streets tryna shoot at
'Cause all we got is dreams man and y'all ain't never had to not have nothing
And that's the last thing you want from
Is to not really nothing

I through hell and back, I seen my momma cry
my father hit the crack then hit the set to flip a sack
I done my homies die then went on rides to kill 'em back
So how you say you feel me you never had to get through that?
We live for they amusement like they view us behind the glass
No matter what we grow into, we never gonna our past
So in this cage they for me, exactly where you find me at
Whether it's my time to or not, I never turn my back

I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the things I've
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To make my proud, feel like her only son
I gotta be, I be, I gotta be the one
everything I need, with everything I want
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To do it nobody has ever done
