Silver - Inner City Blues (feat. Milan Credle)

We all are searching for something
Is it worth it all or are we still hurting for nothing
Will my niggas eat or are we still nursing the hunger
But even when they press the button, we gon rise
I don't really hide my feelings
I don't really want no drama
Going through the ups & downs and
I don't really want nobody
I been on the road to healing
I ain't really holding no grudge
All I really want is what's mine
I don't really ask for too much
Had to take a lil minute just to get right
Devil tryna knock you down when you this high
Couple demons had to spar with a fist fight
They be tryna clip the wings when you this fly
Still dream like I'm supposed to
Wildin with the team that I'm close to
To bring you all the things you can grow to
Love up in my city so we been committed
Unless you been through what I witnessed, you won't really get it
I been all up in my mind since the 10th grade
Couple jobs, on the grind tryna get paid
Went from just a nerdy nigga with the temp fade
To never stepping out the crib without the switchblade
Cuz time flies in a city of killer
Bullets fly, niggas die
Intertwined on the run from gorillas
Getting hunted for them hunnids, something gotta give
Never violent
But gon pull it if you tryna live
Inner city blues
These cold streets can turn a good seed bad
Misguided and dismantled
Looking for refuge in anything within reach
Demons in disguise but
You know you gon survive
Only the strong
So will you stand tall or die alone
I don't really hide my feelings
I don't really want no drama
Going through the ups & downs and
I don't really want nobody
I been on the road to healing
I ain't really holding no grudge
All I really want is what's mine
I don't really ask for too much
One day
You can be here
One day
You can be not
Timbalands is stomping block
Lil niggas own nuffin'
So They have nots
Then they reaching for the tech
For respect from the vets
But yo life they could care less
In the essence of lessons
A lil nigga in they soul is one asking for protection
They was vexing
But now I’m stressing
I’m just tryna keep it low
I’m just tryna make it home
I’m just tryna speak my peace
But a 38 is in my reach
Damn
Decisions decisions decisions
Life going hit you wit em
So play yo position my nigga
I gotta believe my destiny was written
I gotta mission to make it out
And make it rain on the drought
Cuz all my niggas gotta purpose
It ain’t cloudy when you living it
But they chasing clout
Backward shit
Used to sit infront the tv for the lottery pick
Hoping luck would bring some ending to this poverty shit
Plane rides for the tropical trips
Praying for better days, I get the feeling that it gotta be this
Cuz I'll be damned if I do, damned if I don't
Bro told me be yourself, I'll be damned if I won't
Cuz this Martin in the flesh, but it's Malcolm in spirit
Funny thing about the truth, it always stick when you hear it
Now my mind in the matrix
Foot up in the grave as I slave through the day shift
Go against the grain for the plays we been making
Keep em entertained in the name we encased in
Waves I'm creating
Visions of me whipping like I ordered a plate
In a 745 like a quarter to 8
Niggas passed me the baton so I carry the torch
And I done made too many strides to be coming up short
Cuz I don't
I don't really hide my feelings
I don't really want no drama
Going through the ups & downs and
I don't really want nobody
I been on the road to healing
I ain't really holding no grudge
All I really want is what's mine
I don't really ask for too much
I don't really hide my feelings
I don't really want no drama
Going through the ups & downs and
I don't really want nobody
I been on the road to healing
I ain't really holding no grudge
All I really want is what's mine
I don't really ask for too much
