lirik lagu reggie bonds - gangsta's w/ concious
(beginning poem)
(verse 1) (spit with pain!)
witness abuse as a younger child!
the skies was gray!
seen uncle harold beat with some bats them n-gg-s left him planked!
mommy in the alley smoking!
cousins on the corner banging!
daddy always told me stay away from the f-cking gangsters!
but them n-gg-s held me down!
made me to a rebel child!
even though i seen em push a n-gg- sh-t back!
just tryna feed the fam!
the dealer dealt this f-cking hand!
i pray to god every night hoping that he understand!
tales of the stolen youth!
hiding in the grape vines!
mommy got her check and she was gone until the day time!
we was watching sports kobe dunking from the baseline!
base heads running up the block tryna catch dimes!
night time!
thoughts was running!
hoping mommie coming back!
i a stand out on the porch watch them n-gg-s dealing crack!
they a ask if sh-t was good!
i all ways tell em yup!
even though they gangsters man them n-gg-s had they heart intact!
facts!
parallel to the motions!
dave was in the kitchen seen em wiping it with soda!
100 g’s made dam that many n-gg-s smoking!
made me want to try it till he told me it want foe me!
f-ck!
(hook)
a lot of n-gg-s banging where i’m from n-gg-!
(under melody)
lodda dyyyeee dodda dyee!!!!
seen n-gg-s lose they life in the slums n-gg-!
lodda dyyyeee dodda dyee!!!!
(x2)
but this the only road we was giving!
slaved to the ways!
and conformed to the system!
(verse 2)
you speak the truth they shut you down!
was raised where them k!llers dwell!
microscopic vision to the light because we seeing h-ll!
we fight amongst!
but stand aside!
are foolish pride is suicide!
true indeed!
we packing burners
just so we can stay alive!
blah! (gun sound)
choppas rang!
but the feelings deep!
n-gg-s out here hustling prolly never seen a quarter key!
but they got to eat!
and them jobs ain’t in n-gg-s reach!
they treating us like animals and program us through what we see!
huh!
so n-gg-s turn to that darkside!
all i seen was gangstas growing up where i come from!
but they told me choose rap!
n-gg-s really dealed crack!
but they told me write
instead of me being a monster!
practice what you preach!
and you rep what you sow!
seen so many n-gg-s dead but they living through my songs!
n-gg-s hustle to they bones die!
but can not tie a bow tie!
but they love they momma and will pray up to the most high!
propaganda through the contraband!
chopper hit him shower land!
steady fighting demons the confusion come from instagram!
for jimmy chews they chew yo face!
the k!llings so remorseful!
but that’s just another sad case!
(hook)(x2)
a lot of n-gg-s banging where i’m from n-gg-!
(under melody)
lodda dyyyeee dodda dyee!!!!
seen n-gg-s lose they life in the slums n-gg-!
lodda dyyyeee dodda dyee!!!!
(x2)
but this the only road we was giving!
slaved to the ways!
and conformed to the system!
