Off the Block (feat. Stressmatic and J. Banks)

Oh these hard time
Just trying to get trying to get by
Trying to get by trying to get by
Woo
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we give up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we give up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
Off the course of my religion I try not to go to prison
Wash out shoot with precision
My vision never missing with just the rightful ammunition
These double do studs go though your ligaments
We created this sequel despite our skin and our pigment
One day I hope to become legitimate legitimate
Thats the thought process of a young hustler about his money
Far from a dummy smart enough to run a big company
If I was put in position the end results would be lucrative
No more life on the run living life as a fugitive
I register marijuana smoking my lungs to decrease the stress
Got a vest of olive oil that the pastor blessed
Then I take out the bottle put it on my head and chest
To protect me from death
It gruesome out here its spooky ugly and murkily
Its dirty out here
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we give up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we give up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
I went off the block you aint no better than me
My sins aint no worse than yours only father like God can judge me
I heard somebody say Im sick of they urban gear
The dreads and the saggy pants Ive had it up to here
They said why yall show your draws and wear them way down there
I said why you show your balls and wear them way up there
Contradictions and criticisms we trapped in the system
Its not a lot of school but its a lot of prisons
By big homey went though with me and just like me and you
Hoping and wishing for a financial breakthrough
Where Im coming from you gotta be street smart not dumb
Put your hands up dont run cops will shoot you with a gun
Consequences everyone makes mistakes
Whats between today and tomorrow is your faith
It gruesome out here its spooky ugly and murkily
Its dirty out here
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we give up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we get it up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
Off the block try and make it off the block
The markers in yellow tape bodies outline in chalk
We be funking non-stop warring and beefing
Trying to take off the top we stressing depressing
Nobody to ask us a question
The government treat us like peasants
Can;t get a job no reference
Back in the day we had some scrill
But now you get on jail on purpose just to get a decent meal
Stop chasing this high you can get some get back
With a strong guy got a monkey on his back
I see it all the time
The people that help they must be the ones that give the hardest time
Thats some backward ass shit
Act like you oweem some you dont oweem shit
It gruesome out here its spooky ugly and murkily
Its dirty out here
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we get it up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
We dont stop always running from the cops
Praying night and day selling rocks gotta make it out
Before we get it up
Its ugly try to make it off the block
Im tryin to get off the block Im tryin to get off the block
Im tryin to get off the block
Im tryin to get off the block man
Im tryin to get off the block
Im tryin to get off the block
