Luyện nghe bài hát Like It Is

I tell it like it is, then how it be

Heaven or hell boy, or jail boy
A bag full of shit I could sell for
The higher, the low boy, just me and my
The police us so we made up our own laws
Been fighting 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
never been no threat, I be chillin', relaxin'
Everybody

I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To make it up to heaven, the things I've done
I gotta be, I 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 nobody has ever done

When I was in seventh grade my 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 like 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 that could help
but they look at us and all they see is a
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 crows
The young catch gun shots, the old catch the holy
Ho I love not, I never no pot of gold
Just windows and six fours with no switches
Was broke no bitches, she love me though
You'll me if it make you richer, what you screaming, you my brother for
is where the hatred is, the brain that stained the love below
And life is what you make it so I'm makin' money for my

I be, I gotta be, I gotta be the one
To make it up to heaven, despite the things done
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To make my proud, feel like her only son
I gotta be, I gotta be, I 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

When most look at a person who does what I
Do they look at us these preconceived notions 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 treat other like it
looking at a person telling them that they story don't
Matter they're no better than me, walkin' down the streets tryna shoot at somebody
'Cause all we got is these dreams man and y'all never had to not have nothing
And that's the last you want from anybody
Is to not really have

I been hell and back, I seen my momma 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 'em back
So how you say you feel me when you never had to get that?
We for they amusement like they view us from behind the glass
No matter we grow into, we never gonna escape our past
So in this cage they made for me, exactly you find me at
Whether my time to leave or not, I never turn my back

I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To it up to heaven, despite the things I've done
I gotta be, I gotta be, I be the one
To make my proud, feel like her only son
I be, I gotta be, I gotta 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
