- (Statik Selektah)
- Time waits for no man, life is but a two-step slow jam
- Dancin' with the devil, tryin' not to lose my balance
- Look, God blessed the kid many talents, he was chosen
- It's why you see him livin' in the moment
- Every second, gotta own it
- 'Cause you never know when could be your last
- Time breathin', now you bleedin' from the gun blast
- And you thinkin' 'bout the past, see your whole life in a flash
- Best friends lowerin' your casket, now your son a bastard
- Pressure on his shoulders make 'em gotta grow faster
- Wherе I'm from, the stories nevеr end with no happy ever afters (Uh)
- Just broken families forced to start new chapters
- A natural disaster, the cycle, in a loop
- Are we caught up in a rapture?
- Not to mention all the other factors
- Government agendas against rappers
- They wanna see us either dead or captured
- So I hold my head high 'til they put me below
- Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close
- This is for my niggas who took a day to relax
- Huggin' their block but the block ain't hug 'em back
- So we hold our head high 'til they put us below
- Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep my heat close
- This is for my niggas who took a day to relax
- Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug us back
- Took a trip to Miami that March (Uh)
- Couple weeks right before my daughter got born (Uh)
- To meet up with a kid by the name of X
- Had to go to him 'cause he was on house arrest, nonetheless
- Our first time meetin' we was always on the FaceTime
- He offered me his place to stay, "Thank you, but I decline"
- First impression in my mind, "Now that's a stand-up nigga
- Someone I could call a friend of mine and that's tough, nigga"
- Shit, I could talk about any type of stuff with him
- Never gave a **** about who didn't **** with him
- See, that's my nigga, I had to keep it a buck with him
- When he played me his album, I told him what he was missin'
- A lot of niggas woulda took that shit different, woulda thought that I was dissin'
- Still, we found this beat and started riffin'
- Shit had me reminiscin', had me thinkin' 'bout Steelo
- Now that I can see his vision
- So I hold my head high 'til they put me below
- Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close
- This is for my niggas who took a day to relax
- Huggin' their block but the block ain't hug 'em back
- So we hold our head high 'til they put us below
- Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep my heat close
