Let's see, lazy ass, wake up!
All damn morning sleeping
What do you think? that I do nothing?

If I sang to you only winter days would fall only downpours
A deluge so strong it would even put out hell
I saw Lucifer up close, I even hung out in his room
With life examples similar to cowboys

Faith in weapons more than all the saints in your heavens
With beliefs that emanate from that hunger they felt, uh
Pure sick people looking for medicine
A blanket for the cold and loneliness they carry inside
That sincere love they didn't get from their relatives

And an armor that withstands stones from a rude world (uh-huh)
How to get close to those dogs
Who only labeled us, never saw anything good (uh-huh)

And I discovered that poverty causes a lot of desire for love
That children end up in gangs because of that
Finding in the street what they don't find at home
He called it that path and he didn't think twice

He met another kid and they bonded
Similar stories where his father is God
When he grew up he analyzed even his religion
And discovered that there was a lot of deception in it
He met marijuana, alcohol, and sex
At home they didn't tell him about this world

Nor how to have the security to face it
And if you fall, be strong to overcome it
Because my street brothers have never judged me
And we've been together in really bad times
Saying goodbye to homies who buried our world

Now I'm a man, obviously a g
With so many little brothers and they're all like that
How people look at me doesn't matter to me
For my worn-out clothes, workin' only for me
Because I don't follow schedules, they already know how I am

Even niggas do the right thing
Motherfuckin', it ain't never enough (never enough)
If life were easier
You wouldn't feel so much love in the face of pain
No matter how cold the street is, sometimes you can find more warmth
With those who are
Love is not always found
With the family God gave you, the one you got

This is what I study, you know I don't run away
And if there's a problem, I'll face it
Sometimes I doubt it and put up a shield
And I don't even know who the hell to trust anymore
This is what I study, you know I don't run away
If there's a problem, I'll face it
Sometimes I doubt it and put up a shield
And I don't even know who the hell to trust anymore

I walk through the dirt towards wealth
This is my religion, I don't want more poverty
Smoking crack won't pay the rent
And I'm burning blunts and she's moving away
But that's life, I took a painkiller
And then I put the devil inside the bottle

I got drunk so her love would come back
Marks all over my skin, you only see it from the outside
You want to belittle me and here comes the war
If this street criterion ignites the fire
Watch your words, God condemns you
Pure street love from a whole gang

What would she feel, what would she feel?
That her son was part of the street network
And what would she say then, what would she say?
If she pushed him to go with anyone
What would mom feel about my war?
But I made sure she never found out
What would she feel, what would she feel?
That her son was the one who fell in the cell

And what would she say then, what would she say?
If she pushed him to go with anyone
What would mom feel about my war?
But I made sure she never found out
What would she feel, what would she feel?
That her son was part of the street network
And what would she say then, what would she say?
If she pushed him to go with anyone

Hell, yeah, I roll with gangsters, not busters, them heat buster, nigga
I have felt the edge and love of those they call niggas
The good feelings of sewer rats
The hypocrisy of others who claim to be family

Roll with blunt smokers, feel comfort around for real niggas
Hung around them jackets that pack it but they are sincere niggas
I don't get dizzy hanging out with killer minds
I get more dizzy with those who only smiled at us
Most niggas are tough, most to the rough
Most niggas are tough, most to the rough

This is what I study, you know I don't run away
And if there's a problem, I'll face it
Sometimes I doubt it and put up a shield
And I don't even know who the hell to trust anymore
This is what I study, you know I don't run away
If there's a problem, I'll face it
Sometimes I doubt it and put up a shield
And I don't even know who the hell to trust anymore
