Let me tell 'em, James
When your soul co-
When your soul co-
When your soul comes near
We're not gonna suffer patiently anymore
No more turning the other cheek
No more blessing our enemies
No one will offer in

When you're broke crushing coke don't take much coaxing
Cooking the raw is a foot in the door, tryna bust it open
But dudes ain't making moves, our view is just commotion

To succeed you've never seen such devotion
To succeed you've never seen such devotion

If it's a bounty you're bound to encounter us approaching
Straight or super narrow, no Cupid's arrow or lover's potion
Our start honestly is dark comedy, no brothers joking
Aggressive tone for flesh and bone, that's why blood is spoken
These gardens hardened a heart that was tender
Moms is solid, my Earth never shook, not a tremor
Learned not to fall from her, they never call you "Sir" if you surrender
How they dealing? Killing us always been the true agenda
It's the public way, another day a new dilemma
Thoughts marked if you lost your spark and could use an ember
Here zealots seem to sell a dream, choose a vendor
My kin been dwindling, can't afford to lose a member
The load that is on these shoulders is much to bear
From a city with battalions of stallions its always been "Fuck the mayor"
As a knave evade a few close shaves, they ain't touch a hair
Trust I can hush the bluster, only a sucker duck a fair
Had to shed endless before I ascended to this upper tier
I did enough for all of us, hope you never suffer dear
Admit, never cared where you from, it was rougher here
Guess them dirty jeans in early teens gave me another gear

To succeed you've never seen such devotion (never)
To succeed you've never seen such devotion (never seen)
To succeed you've never seen such devotion (never seen it)

Let me tell 'em James
When your soul comes
