P Double - Victory Blvd.

Oh, Oh, When the going get tough, the tough don’t get going
Oh, Oh, Can you handle what they're throwing, what the winds gone blow in?
Oh, Oh, You gone Make it through the storm, think before you cross
Cause This is where, Kingsroad meets Victory Blvd


Shit get ugly on Victory Blvd
It’ll make you, it’ll show you what you really are
We were just kids, roaming round the neighborhood
Causing trouble, dirtying our knuckles
Everyday after school I'd meet the homies round the block
Jump the fence in my neighbors yard, so I didn’t have to run around
Wrecking his plants when I land, it made him mad
We just ran, didn’t feel bad, for no angry old man uh
Two house up, in the cut, that’s where we’d meet up
Garage code memorized, 2231
Was real close, together we got a feel for
What life was like moving further from here at home
Had to grow up quick, could forecast what came after
Came into our own, exposed to things faster
Corrupted youth, cutting classes, squeezing asses
Catholic school nightmare, far as St Joseph Hill's stature
Wasn’t driving but was driven, I was gassed
Started drifting from home the more I danced
I was traveling all over, still always rep the block
But the homies I was close with, they never left the block
Still in the same place, I could tell in they face
Never got out, but found other ways to escape
And over time we grew apart, things started to change
On Victory Blvd, it got darker by the day


Oh, Oh, When the going get tough, the tough don’t get going
Oh, Oh, Can you handle what they’re throwing, what the winds gone blow in?
Oh, Oh, Prepared to face your block? Better think before you cross
Oh, You cornered on Kingsroad and Victory Blvd


Thanking the lord my inner battles were light
Compared to what I’ve seen in life, can’t complain I’ll be alright
Outside looking in, they see us winning and it’s cool
But dont twist it, I’m no different, I go through shit too
I’m talking dark nights, dark thoughts tryna avoid a loss
I was forced to retort, victory ain’t such an easy course
And in my position, knew that I could make a difference
But knew that if I did, it'd cause division in the friendship
What do I do, selfishly shelf it and just dismiss it
Or seek help for his health, and his mental condition?
I Was only 15, felt compelled against his wishes
To try save his life, from the hell that he was livin in
So I made the call, hello Mam it’s bout your son
Hands shaking while I hold the phone, had to be done
One day he’ll thank me for it
One day I’ll call him and he won’t ignore it
One day I hope he see the vision and realize I saw it, before him


Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, You Cornered on Kingsroad and Victory Blvd
