Lyrics
Back when skippin was kool, and we was fans of the dopeman
We was bad kids in the bathroom smokin
In the back of the classroom actin up and jokin
Jus lookin for somethin that we could find hope in
Caught up wit new kicks and old chicks man its hopeless
Not to mention that my whole generations smokin
Brainwashed with this filth so tell me where the soap is
So much on my mind, but its like nobody notice
My mom sick, but I ain't gone trip
As long as I'm smoking this potent
I'm vibin, I'm float in,
My problems in slow motion
I'll deal it tomorrow, cause right now I'm ghostin
You imitate my lifestyle, I live the one you postin
Real dudes they see me
fake dudes wanna be me
Its easy till ya 3 deep
Rollin wit that heat, gettin ready to bust something
Just a late teen tryin ta be seen
Get cream and maybe cut somethin
Yo boys say they got ya back,
but ya can't even trust em
So you accustom to bustin
Even when the boys rush in
Yo big homie on that substance
Now you can't even trust him
Yea you trappin, big captain
Ya aunties and ya cousins
Yea you got that action
But it ain't moving nothin
You stay losing someone
But ya gotta be winnin somethin
Cause You celebrate, say its nothin
Fool you must be frontin
Cause honestly its sad to me
To see such depravity
sirens in the backdrop
Mixed wit gunshots
That's the soundtrack to what's happening
Makes ya wanna step back, but take some action g
Put the sack down and maybe make a masterpiece
Bring the peace and end the catastrophe
And let it breathe
Jus let it breathe
