FAIRWELLS

Man

I'd like to, I'd like to say my farewells and my goodbyes

I'm done with this shit, man

It's time to live life

For real

No more bullshit, man

I promise

Let's go

Damn, here's my farewells to the street life

Farewells

I'm from a place where if you talk proper, they say you speak white

Ironically, a long sentence'll lead to a couple brief kites

Damn

A cot inside a six by nine should help you to sleep tight

This our history I recite

Farewell to them **** in stairwells who no longer breathe life

I shake my fist to release dice and pray that I don't ace out

Get 'em

But if you're planning a win, you gots to replace doubt

That Ran gonna send and plot his escape route

Yes

Don't gotta ask what you pray 'bout

Nah

If you get that kiss from death, you'll never make out

Mwah

A lion could never play mouse

Could try, but you'll never break out

Farewell to them nights, was lying on Ray's couch

Farewell

Had nowhere to sleep through the week, surviving the days out

Damn

I'd be dead if I couldn't rap, or doin' life because I wouldn't rat

What good is that? I used to flood my hood with smack

Good is that? Ah

I understood that I stood for more, I built my name and I stood on that

Yeah

The farther you try to slip away, the harder they try to pull you back

That's facts

Damn, just say your goodbyes and farewells

Just sitting in a square cell, scared to God 'cause you fear Hell

Goodbye, bye

You told your dear daughter that you won't dare tell

She cried, was sent to your tear as soon as her tears fell

But why?

We wasn't born just to die

I'm doing more than survive

It's either tortured alive or receive your portion of pie

I need all mine

Now we only offer goodbyes

Only thing we offerin', ****

Goodbye

Farewell to all them project nights, no parking, we double park

We took in price, your mom's gave birth, but the judge could off her life

Farewell to the hallway lights, they flicker when we enter

When **** park their bikes

Hope is still out there, oh, you gonna walk the night?

Farewell to the nightmares when I sleep, I seen the poltergeist

Grandma talked with Christ, I found Allah, can't do no pork, aight?

Farewell to the bros I lost, ups and downs in life

Rough as the smokers cough, to separate from rock, kinda like Hova thought

Switch the weed, farewell to the train, this whip a different speed

Farewell to the hand to hand with grams when it was ten degrees

Like ****, please, I dealt with bigotry, you know, they dislike

I sent kites, the lifers, they write me back just for insight

They ask me about these foreigns, fishbowl 'em, just keep the tint light

Black rose, I tatted on my windpipe, farewell that WIC nights

And EBTs, we sold it in the store like it was DVDs

Farewell to TMZ, trying to watch us like TNT

BNB, I ain't stayed in one since they took Pop

Watch how I stand right here in my spot

I had a few grams when I first got knocked

Hopped out them vans when they came to the block

Chop me a hand, better shoot till they drop

Cop me some land, if I use it or not

I got with Ran, **** knew this was hot

I'ma get love, don't care who in the spot

You could get shot just for movin' a lot

He ain't as tough as you think, look what he drink

He probably take hookah from thots

It was just me and Stoop that got locked

Shooter forever, you know him or not

We handle drama like Oprah, you get a shot

You get a, you get a shot

Damn, just say your goodbyes and farewells

Just sitting in a square cell, scared to God 'cause you fear Hell

Goodbye, bye

You told your dear daughter that you won't dare tell

She cried, was sent to your tear

Second class citizenship is nothing but a modern version of slavery

Which means that according to him, his definition, slavery still exists

Twenty million black people here in America are still slaves

The Emancipation Proclamation and the Civil War were fought for nothing

Goodbye
