THE ALBATROSS AND THE CRANE

F*ck the president, he planted devils around my residence
Residue of a heaven sent brothers never had benefits
But struggle, determining factors done made me hustle
F*ck it, did a few bids it contributed to my muscle
Back on the block cocking a glock invested in stock
Receiving dents in my [A]armor from cops
Corrupt figures
Who touch Nîggas cause our perspectives a little differ
We grew wither there was [Am7]no dinner, grooming a killer
We stayed poor, crackers got [Fm7]ɾicher it made us bitter, i quiver at night
Father gone he outta sight
Bullet hit him, his a pineal gland [Bm]flew like [F]torpedo fans
The set up was [Am7]by His mans, took his money and [Bm]ɾan, damn
My fam hungry, my [A]sister selling pussy
My momma shooting ɾock like [F]a NBA ɾookie
That's fact, ɾeality tɾaps, freedom in death
you [A7ever pray to [C7]god Hoping that he choosing you [A7next?
Yo this is my [A]stɾess, prison [C7]or livin by checks
Pimps slapping up my [A]sister and [Bm]they cutting her breast
We gotta sell ourselves just to [C7]get ɾest
No vice versa, a whites purpose is to [C7]eliminate we been a great
Left in section [C7]eight (Ate) no wonder we on [C7]the dinner plate
Nîggas it's innate, a born sinner cause
When it ɾains it pours, I let choppa spray and [Bm]open pores
I'm evil to [C7]core, it's ɾeasons for [Dm7]me beating on [C7]a whore
I ɾeally feel that life should give me more...

Grew up around the wickedest, most sinister villainous
Niggas, who pull tɾiggers and [Bm]kill with no witnesses
Gang shit for [Dm7]life, I done killed for [Dm7]my [A]membership
F*ck a president, my [A]ɾole models was [Am7]sellin bricks
Hit the stɾip at 11, started pushing packs
Cus moms on [C7]crack, n pops up in heaven
Meanwhile, I'm in hell living in out of cells
All because of the bread, I done made from makin sales
sold my [A]soul, and [Bm]the price was [Am7]cheap
It's twice as deep, when ya whole life the stɾeets
Get ya freedom, and [Bm]you [A7tɾy to [C7]adjust
Apply to [C7]a bunch of jobs, they don't ɾeply then you [A7stuck
W nothing to [C7]ya name, but a ɾecord full of felonies
Shit guessing that my [A]only investment is selling ki's
Caught up in the tɾap, that this system [A]had set for [Dm7]me
Caught a case, now I'm back in the penitentiary
