Back in the east
Days when nobody was fucking with me
Losing some people I thought never leave
Too many niggas aspire to be
Leaders but neither responsible, sheesh
All my attention been focused on me
I gotta get better
Maturity measured
Connecting antennas right over the sea
Back in the
Back in the
Back in the east
Back when my teacher was Abdul Latif
I was still cutting, just look at my sleeves
Told you my nigga, i am where I be
Value my work cause it coming from hurt
Who gonna put a price on what Im worth
Moment I stop I'll be laid in a hearse
Bouncing balls dribble on letters I word
Niggas and bitches got nothing but interest
Depicting editions of snakes in attendance
I'm dipping my toes before walking on liquid
I meant it, correcting my own masochism
No longer the victim, I broke out the prison
I hear you my nigga but who gonna listen?
They claiming I'm tripping, I guess be bitching
And silence is stronger than yelling & hitting
My own intuition go off like a pistol
Detaching whoever the man in the middle
It's fuck everybody and that is official
The biggest is often thenigga with little
Cause
I was just hating myself (self)
Wasn't accepting no help. (help)
Loneliest I ever felt. (felt)
Exit the stage to the left. (LOW)
Chours:
And if you talking bout friends
Then I can not count on them
I'm a young sad nigga and I ain't gonna pretend
I'm a young sad nigga and want it all to end
And if your talking bout life
Then you better get it right
I'm a young silly nigga happiness never applied
I'm a young silly nigga and i really wanna die
Verse two:
Yea I'm a hoe and I know I'm a freak
What other things are they saying bout me
Some of these niggas be thinkin they deep
Only the surface, their ankles will freeze
Sizzle, we popping, like hamburger grease
Closest to me cheering on my defeat
Closest to them, got more sympathy, sweet
Trusting my homies gets hard by the week
Hustle
My muscles
Not privy to comfort
Rock hoodies in summer
So cuts undiscovered
The gutters I utter
Are unlike no other
That's true for my sister
And three of my brothers
Maybe I'm timid
Or maybe I'm different
I muster the courage to change how I'm living
I get it, you got it
These people be toxic
I'm part of the problem
And rarely unconscious
Outro:
Back in the east
(woah woah)
Back in the east

Back in the east
(yo yo)
Back in the east
(go go)
Back in the east
(yea yea)
Back in the east
(oh oh)
Back in the east
(aye aye)
Back in the WOAH
