Luyện nghe bài hát Like It Is

I tell it it is, then how it could be

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

I gotta be, I be, I gotta be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the things done
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To make my momma proud, feel her only son
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
With everything I need, with I want
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To do it like has ever done

I was in seventh grade my grandfather told me don't get caught
Lovin' the streets cause they never gonna love you
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 really come from here, so they can't do nothing but look down on us
We look at them, we see somebody could help
but they look at us and all see is a nigga
It really matter anyway, we all gon' die one day man, one day

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

I gotta be, I be, I gotta be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the things 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 everything I need, with everything I
I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To do it nobody has ever done

When most people look at a who does what I
Do they look at us with these preconceived as if
It's a set way for us all to be, but we all at the end
Of the day so I wonder why we don't each other like it
You're looking at a person telling them they story don't
Matter when they're no better than me, walkin' down the tryna shoot at somebody
'Cause all we got is these dreams man and y'all ain't had to not have nothing
And that's the last thing you want anybody
Is to not really have

I been through hell and back, I seen my cry
Seen my hit the crack then hit the set to flip a sack
I done seen my homies die then went on rides to kill 'em
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 we grow into, we never gonna escape our past
So in this cage made for me, exactly where you find me at
Whether it's my time to leave or not, I never turn my

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 gotta be, I be the one
To make my momma proud, feel her only 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
