Chasing Faith

So, a **** ain't have no direction

Locked up in my own mental prison

Suicide on my mind, no one listen

Made a **** remain so distant

From the ones that could help me cope with it

Heart closed, **** feelin' indifferent

Can I stand on my own?

Pain on my dome, fuckin' up my zone (Let's go)

Dreams surrounded in darkness, heartless

Mind fucked up, thoughts littered wit' garbage

Desolate minds, so my pace move lethargic

All of this pain is what made me a artist

Picked myself up off the ground

Push a **** forth where they chalk 'em out

Needed a rain in my endless drought

'Cause all a **** rivers filled up with doubt

Free, free, lemme tell you what I mean

'Cause a **** grew up in the coldest of streets

Hood real gutter, make you fold up your dreams

Old school system, bring no clothes for the weak

Rob and they stealin', but the plot only thickens

'Cause the cops hittin' ****, 'fore they reach for the phone

Try intervention, but the confidence missin'

So they got all the children, and they stripped 'em of hope

Damn, damn, feelin' like death

Where do you turn when a **** need help?

Trapped in your conscience, your conscience gon' melt

You busy watchin' what they do and you fail

I'm tryna show you that a **** been there

Crucify myself, a story to tell

If you thinkin' that you stuck in a jail

They key is in the room, you standing right there

When you lost in this world, man, it's hard to relate

And your back's on the wall, only choice is go straight

Road signs, left, right, which path do you take?

Only one lead the way

Tell me which one destined for your faith

****, which path you gon' choose?

Both got they perks, but one is for the few

Other is bright, and gold, and shinin' too

Either one you pick, you win or you lose

One is for the dark and one is for truth

One will keep the voices, one is on mute

One will keep you hangin' inside a noose

Other teach you all the ways to unloose

Woke up from a dream we still in

Will we ever break free from these chains on skin?

Got a axe, in a flash we'll be back makin sense

Bring it back on her ass, mine blowin' in the wind

Bold thoughts of a king, go hard, but fuck brain

So hard to sustain, just a product of the game

Young ace hit the safe, get involved with the snakes

Pull you card, better keep a guard, **** might take everything

Had to clean my  karma, now there ain't no drama

Always felt like the target, with a chink in my armor

Takin' shit from my father, never listen, why bother?

Dude lost in the ego, could've drowned way farther

'Cause my dogs, they lethal, get a path, they eat you

Had to get up, get out of the trap they lead you

But we live now, that Cali lifestyle, my eagles

Had the wars peaceful, had to start to eat full

Used to bang with the dirt, quickly leave you bloodstained

Pants hang, ain't a thing changed, ****, fuck fame

Through the panes, they could see the sun, 'cause they up late

Hittin' Jane, writin' to them drums make ya sub crank

'Member thinkin', "Is this gon' pay off?

Is a **** really gon' have to get a day job?"

Tell my **** load the guns, hit the streets, then we mob

No shoulder to lean on, to show my allegiance, the words to bond

Twelve years old when I took my first toke

And I never looked back, since then been ghost

Always gravitated to the shit that stayed away the most

If my mama only knew about the shit that I indulged

Would'a been without a home, and probably laid up wit' a stone

Was a sticky little brat, stuck packs under my stove

Burnin' dodie in the crib, but shh, nobody knows

Showin' late to every period, smellin' like a O

When you lost in this world, man, it's hard to relate

And your back's on the wall, only choice is go straight

Road signs, left, right, which path do you take?

Only one lead the way

Tell me which one destined for your faith

****, which path you gon' choose?

Both got they perks, but one is for the few

Other is bright, and gold, and shinin' too

Either one you pick, you win or you lose

One is for the dark and one is for truth

One will keep the voices, one is on mute

One will keep you hangin' inside a noose

Other teach you all the ways to unloose

What you gon' choose?
