Isse Baby - First

Stay awake till my eyes hurt
Visions of my place of birth
Where I'm from and what it's worth
If the Reaper coming for me
Then I hope I see him first
Then I hope I see him first
Stay awake till my eyes hurt
Visions of my place of birth
Where I'm from and what it's worth
If the Reaper coming for me
Then I hope I see him first
Then I hope I see him first
We've broken laws but never rules
There's a code we've grown by live by to
Silly thing cos at it stickiest it get live with a guy that live by you
Fuck sides we just tryna survive if the numbers right not all of us do
I turned 24 in April I'm grateful I made it here
Watch me shine like 24 summers
Gold like laker colours
This my Kobe year
Told the homies soon we all be clear
When we on the reign gone be like Roman years
Cos Marj already cried a thousand tears
More than a thousand words in prayer
Asking the Maker to protect her babies
Cos one thing we can depend on is safety
Here kids go missing daily
And the feds don't care much if you look like me
Cos that YG my just be cross country
On a train he bumped if they grab him he run
Next stop if he lucky
It ain't funny it's ugly
But choices are rare
No one chooses hell
But sometimes you already here
Stay awake till my eyes hurt
Visions of my place of birth
Where I'm from and what it's worth
If the Reaper coming for me
Then I hope I see him first
Then I hope I see him first
Stay awake till my eyes hurt
Visions of my place of birth
Where I'm from and what it's worth
If the Reaper coming for me
Then I hope I see him first
Then I hope I see him first
Got rid of everything that limits my potential
Got greedy with my private time protective with my mental
They saying patience is essential
But what's the point of waiting when you figured out your purpose
I was rewriting verses that were perfect in the first place
Back when you were having first dates
I do it better than my best cos I want it in the worst way
We used to be eye to eye but now we looking down
From young we learned to fake a smile
Centre stage my generation take a bow
We kids of parents that left home
But little did they know
That there's nightmares on this road no Elm Street
And those dreams they got sold all empty
But they still filling church seats
Cos chasing dreams means belief in things as dark as they may seem
Cos better come after worse
Tell whoever don't test my nerve
Cos the weight on my shoulders means I lifted the curse
So if the Reaper coming for me I hope I see that nigga first
Stay awake till my eyes hurt
Visions of my place of birth
Where I'm from and what it's worth
If the Reaper coming for me
Then I hope I see him first
Then I hope I see him first
