Signs

I asked the Lord to send me a sign

I thought that I was blind 'cause I ain't never seen the sign

But the sign showed after time and when I finally realized

It was too late to rewind

'Cause I was just waiting on that sign

So I got up and went out on my grind

'Cause I used to crackers ain't no food in the house

Seeing all the older ****, man, they used to shine

Used to have the pretty girls, and I just hope that it was mine

Hypnotized, I was just nine

Black boy robbed a **** right in front of my eyes

Rappin' killed time, the years flew by

Till I got old enough to run up on you with that nine

The light man, we became friends

I see him so much, he cutting off the light again?

I know his name, coworkers and his kids

Ain't coming in a work truck, he coming in his van

The more my stomach growl, the more I wanna lay a **** down

Take your shit, and make 'em cry

Mama got robbed in July, I watched her cry

So I don't care about yours 'cause they ain't care about mine

But look at me now, they told me settle down

TBL charges got me waiting on trial

Oh, so you know now?

The sound red, never know till you found out

The things I found out

But they don't understand what goes on in my house

Ain't no love if you broke

'Cause if you broke they treat you like a bad joke

Don't even wanna laugh with you

When you shitting on 'em, you can make 'em do anything

They'll even wipe your ass for you

In this world

Full of fame and pretty girls

It can make your mind swirl

But you just gotta think, is that what he gon' play?

Get in your brain, have you running in them banks

But now, I just want the world to scream my name

Don't even come, I'm the reason why they came

Taking people's shit, I'm the reason for they pain

Pinky rat, I'm all the way insane

Poking houses, going crazy 'bout them chains

Them Cuban links and them rings

It's deep, the sign I couldn't see

Man, look at me now, I'm getting weak

Damn, look at me now, I can't sleep

Oh, look at your boy, I can't eat

I don't think, ain't never think

Owe for some money, I might blow it all in a week

But it's Kodak, you **** know that

I'm 'bout whatever and now I hear the **** like a road rat

But fuck that, right now I'm chilling

Slow money 'cause fast money give me sentence

I was in it, they say I'm a menace

Say I'm sleeping and when I wake up, I'll be in prison

I'm chilling, this I'm feeling

Give me a deal, give me a mill' so I'm finished

Forget it, I'm still willing

To mask up and hit your granny for a penny

They say I'm stupid, say I'm foolish

Kamikaze baker rap, but I know what I'm doing

Fuck school, everybody on the campus

I did it so I'm ready for all of the consequences

Hard to trust a ****, do I know you?

They hate the Corleone, so paranoia, might have to blow you

Fuck a friend, family too, I don't know you

Bastard child, hey daddy, I don't know you

It's gon' change, gon' change, yeah

It's gon' rain, gon' rain, yeah

Feel the pain, feel the pain, yeah

Just gotta maintain, maintain, yeah

It's gon' change, gon' change, yeah

It's gon' rain, gon' rain, yeah

Feel the pain, feel the pain, yeah

Just gotta maintain, maintain, yeah

It's gon' change, gon' change, yeah

It's gon' rain, gon' rain, yeah

Feel the pain, feel the pain, yeah

Just gotta maintain, maintain, yeah
