Heno. - Ashtray Music (feat. KJ Focus)

My mind racing a million miles in a minute
Hard to smile with this pigment
It's been a while since I did it
You niggas lie for a image
And I got niggas that done died tryna flip it
Or are inside of a prison
Pray to God I get my brother back
Took him from me 3 times I've had enough of that
Some niggas claim they held it down but I can see that their energy off
And I ain't petty I just gotta good memory dawg
Used to think bout it heavy now it don't get to me dawg
Why the things we picture perfect really tend to be flawed
I guess it's in our nature to glorify the nostalgia
More than high though it's all love
But at the same mortified at the thought of losing it all
Talking about myself stressing out tell me who can I call
Take a knee for my life now they got troopers involved
But in more than one way I might have to shoot for the stars yeah

Cuz I'm trapped amongst rats in this rat race
Lapping niggas since back when I was in last place
Smoke gas and leave ashes in the ashtray
For whenever I'm having a bad day yeah
I'm trapped amongst rats in this rat race
Lapping niggas since back when I was in last place
Smoke gas and leave ashes in the ashtray
For whenever I'm having a bad day yeah

Coming from where I'm
These streets are Mad tough
Fiends with some cash come
And we tryna Stack sumn
You see a badge run,
Police will tag ya or at least they gon tax ya
They beat my ass once
Said that I resisted arrest and I'm tryna act tough
Only when sipping some lean is when imma act up
See I never had much but I always had nuff
All of that's perspective conversing with those who've had stuff
They see my dreads it's a wrap
Can't look ahead our past
Or get to forgetting the facts
Like ending up dead cuz I'm black
And I already pray even though we are already prey to the system
Denying shit like what happened to Freddie Grey is the issue
Holdup, So what
Hate me, Don't ya?
Crazy? Sho nuff
Blame it on us but
Pardon me honestly gon keep it a bean
A lotta guala fuels the greed for the green
In this rat race
