lirik lagu uc brigante – better dayz
[chorus]
growing up in the area where they try to bury ya
can turn your heart into stone
won’t be long for you turn into a man
and you figure it all out on your own
i’m surrounded by a whole bunch of soldiers
ready to rock and roll when it’s on
and i’m just tryna make it and see better days, better days
[verse]
okay i’m writing from a place of remenicing
of dark times on the dark side let me paint a picture
back when we were kids i remember hanging with ya
jumped the fence at school just to ditch it
stole my daddy’s nokia just to call some b-tches
when they had you in lock up we used to make them visits
back when mamma used to tell us all to pray but we never listen
matter fact i told my mamma making money my religion
used to catch a bus to the trap
i used to watch the boys all bag it in a flat
off that waterloo road get off that 940
now all my homies gone but the love still strong
i remember when -beep- had my back
the older brother i ain’t never had
bumping 2pac on my walkman when i walked to cl-ss
used to love the rush of the street life
guns busting in the broad daylight had me hypnotised
[chorus]
growing up in the area where they try to bury ya
can turn your heart into stone
won’t be long for you turn into a man
and you figure it all out on your own
i’m surrounded by a whole bunch of soldiers
ready to rock and roll when it’s on
and i’m just tryna make it and see better days, better days
[verse – dence]
they talking bout them drugs in the street
like they know what’s up
popping pills and walking round witcha shoulders up
we looked up to the convicts who we know was tucked
just the life we was taught, respect em if they know w-ssup
but you don’t know this man, i spent my whole life for god
when times got hard, i trapped out my moms garage
it’s basic, i ain’t gotta pay no stripes for love
they say sky is the limit, but we like the stars
watched a sucker hit my momma over drug money
pregnant with my lil brother, like it’s all funny
barely a metre tall, tried to swing but i missed
but let me see you now i’ll -gunshots- till they call for me
you can be my first body, save the nina for you
besides, the rappers in my city nowhere cleaner than you
and i done buried that way back, the boys in blue know
[chorus]
growing up in the area where they try to bury ya
can turn your heart into stone
won’t be long for you turn into a man
and you figure it all out on your own
i’m surrounded by a whole bunch of soldiers
ready to rock and roll when it’s on
and i’m just tryna make it and see better days, better days
[bridge]
for my mamma imma shoot
for my daddy imma shoot
for my brothers imma shoot
for the family imma shoot
that’s the truth, that’s the truth
and there’s nothing you can do
that’s the truth, that’s the truth
there’s nothing that you can do no
it’s better to forgive i know i know
it’s better to forgive i know i know
but i didn’t grow up on the east side no
and i didn’t grow up on the north side no
[chorus]
growing up in the area where they try to bury ya
can turn your heart into stone
won’t be long for you turn into a man
and you figure it all out on your own
i’m surrounded by a whole bunch of soldiers
ready to rock and roll when it’s on
and i’m just tryna make it and see better days, better days
