Dro Benji - Welcome to the Trenches

Welcome to these trenches
Ya Im glad that you visiting
Take a look to your left that's the part that's off limits
Better lock yo doors and don't get out for no reason
If you looking to the right I hope you good keeping secrets
It's best to look str8 because they plotting n scheming
And don't come here at night that's when them tires start screeching
And when they say they hungry please don't try to feed them
Cause it's 2 different meanings between eating and eating

Dapping up saying wassup my bad I meant shaking hands
If you look a lil closer some one laying down that's a man
And those two ppl with guns pulling pockets out his pants
About 3 months ago month they were also best friends
But then he started making more money just a lil more then them
Now he praying they take money and not his life instead
The crazy part it's common situation that he in
Cause he's the one who put a gun to his friend lil bro head
On TV they act it out but leaving out the blood shed
Somethings you see might be true but you still don't understand
The difference from me and you
You had more then one chance
You see them ones out there on the block they out gettin it in
They don't know about punching clocks cause they Days never ends
That's the meaning of eating to put some cash n they pants
To put some food on the table that's how they paying the rent
So when u think about trapping I'll rethink it again
Think about all the rappers that talk about what they did
Some might be out be faking I said might I'm just saying
It's a cold cruel life and we didn't choose to be here
Welcome to these trenches
Ya Im glad that you visiting
Take a look to your left that's the part that's off limits
Better lock yo doors and don't get out for no reason
If you looking to the right I hope you good keeping secrets
It's best to look str8 because they plotting n scheming
And don't come here at night that's when them tires start screeching
And when they say they hungry please don't try to feed them
Cause it's 2 different meanings between eating and eating
Ya we cruising cooling str8 threw the trenches
Ya This the life that you all feel like y'all missing
Where even if they doing good stereotypes they a villain
And he shooting up schools and get off as the victim
These apartments another name just for section 8 buildings
And the jungle another name for the trenches we live in
Think of it as a cage for all the lil bitty children
For the parents with no support this what our taxes been doing
And the well far office that's where we go for improvements
Ya them drugs that smoking that's what they do for insurance
That's how they cope wit the pain
That's what help em' get threw it
Or they Drink it away with shots of illegal fluids
Got Babies having babies giving they life to the system
Now if the tree grew up bad would you blame the roots that had gift them
You think they all look alike
They probably be family members
How bout you open your eyes that's who got raped by her siblings
Now she dropped out of school put on her heels and start stripping
Cause she ain' going back to the place that took away all her wishes
And the money so scarce that's why we take or start dealing
Now sit back enjoy the ride this just part one of the trenches
