Black Pontiac - Crackhawk Down

Smackdown in a Burger King crown plus a pair of sweatpants and a glass pipe, downtown
Living out a suitcase, thats not a metaphor
Crack rock smoke out the booth by the back door
And when its all said and done my mans got nothing, not even a fuck he don't give one
Like Jay, what more can I say its a brown paper bag land, all in a day (ay)

Let it all out, or keep it inside, or get wasted, rock n roll suicide
Yea and I just can't, swallow my pride (because I'm slick like a water slide)
Stick in my hand, shoe on my feet
Another brother who's lying on the concrete
Giving you a rundown like a track meet, 3 2 1 hear the gun and the drums go

I try to touch the sky
No reason to live but no reason to die
Everybody think that they run this town
Crackhawk, show me how to get down

He living in a
Mad world, junkie Donnie Darko
Freaking out the neighborhood like Demarco
Functional in a disguise, hiding in the suit and ties turning blind eyes

It could be a homie or somebody I despise,
I don't put the blame on him, you oughta realize it coulda been me, see but I ain't roll the dices,
Ain't been thinking bout an opioid crisis
I don't cap kid we ain't in the same boat, but at the end of the day we're all just tryna get pay and stay afloat (thats all I wrote)

Let it all out, or keep it inside, or get wasted, rock n roll suicide
Yea and I just can't swallow my pride (because I'm slick like a water slide)
Stick in my hand, shoe on my feet
Another brother who's lying on the concrete
Giving you a rundown like a track meet, 3 2 1 hear the gun and the drums go

I try to touch the sky
No reason to live but no reason to die
Everybody think that they run this town
Crackhawk, show me how to get down

I try to touch the sky
No reason to live but no reason to die
Everybody think that they run this town
Crackhawk, show me how to get down
