Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dedicated
[Verse 2]
This goes out to all my peoples in the city
Makin' ends meet, gettin' by
Thinkin' 'bout the hustle, everybody struggles for the answer
Confusion will attack in a cold blooded manner
But cancer kills my society, no need to lie to me
Real people fightin' always try to be
Correct with the mental and upright with the info
Catchin' hell, payin' dues, but could it be so simple?
[Verse 3]
The dark, cold planet, you can't take the drama
Don't worry, underprivileged got the bulletproof armor
Surviving's just a job as they dodge caps daily
People goin' crazy, everyone who raised me
Thanks to my moms and thanks to my pops
And thanks to the youth, rowdy on the rooftop
Who warned me of trouble, so, son, get the bonus
I dedicate this to those who kept me focused
[Verse 4]
To my brother, big E, yo, rest in peace
To the dead money makers, rest in peace
To my little cousin, Shawn, rest in peace
To the slang gang bangers, rest in peace
[Verse 5]
Dedicated
I got to live, kid
I got to live, kid
[Verse 6]
This goes out to all my peoples locked down
And waitin' for the days to see the sun and the clouds
The stormy weather came, of course, we ignored it
Prayin' for parole in the prison, see the warden?
Released for the pen, eight to ten, on your feet
You're workin', buildin', stayin' strong, watch the heat
Deceit, lies, snitchin', you became a victim
The bitch sewed you quick on the phone in the kitchen
Nightmares and troubles, rememberin' the vision
Times is frustratin' when nobody listens
Is this because they forget and regret to
Acknowledge one another? But all due respect
To the veterans, experts, inmates in the cell
Keep your eyes on the prize, see you soon, wish you well
[Verse 7]
To my brothers doin' life, rest in peace
To my man known as Diz, rest in peace
To my brother, Carl Capone, rest in peace
To all the lost souls, rest in peace
[Verse 8]
Dedicated
I got to live, kid
I got to live, kid
[Verse 9]
This is dedicated to the **** on the block
Servin' up those rocks and keepin' knots
This is dedicated them girls of the night
Rock on till the break of light
This is dedicated to the BMs
The Benz and the Jeep's
And the city that don't sleep
Dedicated, dedicated to the herb and smugglin'
[Verse 10]
Dedicated
[Verse 11]
Much love for Puerto Rico
And my homeboy, Tito
This is dedicated to the sun, the moon, and the stars
Peace to all the gods
[Verse 12]
Dedicated
[Verse 13]
This is dedicated to my **** on the Hill and in the House
You know what it's about
This is dedicated to Gunsmoke, the 1 30 crew
[Verse 14]
Dedicated
[Verse 15]
To Ms. Rosa May, rest in peace
To the baby who's aborted, rest in peace
To my Uncle Pop-o, rest in peace
For those who lost their minds, rest in peace
[Verse 16]
Dedicated
[Verse 17]
Mr. Rob-o Munden , rest in peace
To the child in the drive by, rest in peace
To the one called Stompa, rest in peace
To those who overdosed, rest in peace
[Verse 18]
Dedicated
I got to live, kid
I got to live, kid
I got to live, kid
I got to live, kid
[Verse 19]
Rest in peace
