In Too Deep (Part III)
After “who be waiting”…
He journeyed outside, 8am, thoughts of homicide,
Strapped knowing going in would be suicide.
While she was chilling in the crib one day
When 5 birds came and chased her away
I guess in a way, you can say
That he was about to scold me
What did I do? I was just keeping it real
Is it because I realized in utter famine and thirst one will steal?
My neighbor couldn’t even give me a free glass of water
And of all that brought to me this new world order
"Baby this is how we will survive, and I aint gonna lie, where I’m going now I’m sure I’m about to die!!!! That little seed inside, is the only part of me that really felt alive, every blessing I ever questioned you were the reason why, I love you forever maybe we see each other again in other lives"
Or maybe baby, we make it alive!
HOOK:
I been through worse than you and I know all the angles this game can do
I didn’t even have to look you in the eye before I started questioning why
I just knew, knew on site without rhyme or reason that it is you
Disclosing more then I had to, I did it for you too, to recognize true
Do not forsake the only goodness I’ve seen through my eyes, which I saw in you
Chosen for a brave heart, and will to say what is right vs wrong at all costs
With an understanding of what it means to truly accept a loss
Yayo, the streets is bugged, soldiers getting popped for drugs//
Hustlers selling dubs... A new cancer called thug society show them no love//
Children forced into sin... question: where have the parents been?
Cause only in the movies do bad guys win in the end//
He was my fam, my homie, held me down when I was in an 8x10 lonely.
Rep that 718 Laupheyette school zone, but
Came from a Brooklyn home where even his pops packed chrome//
Couldn’t afford nothing else hand me downs were like a blessing,
Studied life lessons, so at the age of 14 his brother blessed him
with his first 4-4 Smiff and Wessun//
Not that type - never took beef to the tool,
First in his fam with potential because he followed God’s rules//
Wrote me daily of his life jewels, and how he had one on the way
But life’s cruel, I heard down the block were the neighborhood fools,
That used to rob him before school, young gods with no jobs,
They pimped the fly gear and shhht, always had the flyest chicks
They dipped, try to force him in when he said no again and again
So they framed him, set his ass up with 2 bricks.

Upon calling, I felt the smack, from my own father, an attack
And now, I am not even trying to make up for where I lack
Instead I turned around and said ok
If this is the way you really wanna play
Instinct took over, I hardly had to think
I stared hard at the bitch recording me as I sipped upon my drink
Off to the mall and around the block
I chose my weapon – hardly a glock
Drove to the scene
Yet somehow my heart still found a way to intervene
Eye to eye I fear no man
But what was said was so real, I began to understand
Original Hook
