J_sav - Welcome to the city of darkness (feat. U.N.I Jk)

Ha
Yo, it's funny, J
You've been doing this shit since you were seven years old
You was really destined for this shit
Remember what I told you
What you put out, is what you get back
Right
Respect the game, and It will respect you
Amen
That goal of yours true
Talk your shit, nigga
Ha
I was a 07, baby, this shit, it get so crazy
We fell in love with the drugs, the dopamine makes you lazy
We live in a generation where teens are having babies, product of our environment
It keeps on escalating
My mama taught me right from wrong, there was no real debating
Knew my fake friends from the real ones that really had me restraining
Mama had three kids, I was the real odd , taking over my chances
I ain't gonna be the last one
Counting up my digits, I'm climbing up to the prize
Okay
Kill up on each other, they running up to the fight
You ever made memories that you loved before that night
When the time comes, you better cover up your sight
Have you ever seen sirens
Police at your door
You scared to get charged, you get bodied on the floor
The trials and tribulations, the PTSD on the board
You got commas, but your mama be crying out for those
(Yeah)
Have you ever got knocked
It wasn't the plan, but it was the plot
They put us in a system where we don't got it locked
Then start complaining cause we sell that dope and rock
But they don't give us a chance to show what we can do
So we end up in jail and struggle too
Now society see us as criminals, so that's how the cycle works
It's probably gonna continue too
Now let me replay my story from the start of the line
Clock in, check out, it's been on your time
Play us like a victim, we be acting fine
But deep down, it's becoming hurtful more like a sign
Now we know the truth, they put us in a project
Single mother with no father, they treat us like an object
We grew up thinking we would never amount to nothing
Grew up solely, really amounted to something
The reaper coming, he gonna take us back
We live in trauma and the blessings get untack
We live crazy, I just wanna pop a tag
Dior or amiri, chrome hearts just for that
We live life full of riches
I remember the day I had nothing to begin with
Now we live up the life though, remedies
Beat me down, you thrive through your energy
They envy me, they play me like they down in it
Baby we drowning it. Baby come find a minute
Damn, this is my life. Crazy I was just trying to get it right
Chasing your dreams ain't never easy, you know
You always got a target on your back
And the people have the opportunity to take your talents
they take it in the instant
They whisper your accomplishments and they shout out your failures
But as long as you believe in you, that's all you need
I love you little bro
Keep chasing your dreams. Dream chasers shit
