6 Million Ways to die I chose all Heart sunk deep into my chest, the phone call My knees got weak then i fled and drove off A voice saying sorry to say this but man your son didn't make it and damn the videos taken it seemed awful Cops had a small altercation and tee'd off on him. Spectators screaming and pleading to ease off of him, dammit, there's 3 on top he's panicking panting to breathe damaged in need of oxygen, Man handled and beaten he's bleeding and leaving consciousness Doing his best to scream with a copper’s knee on esophagus Empty pleas for providence Saying please to the father he wondered what kind of god this Without a second to swallow the news, all of the news cast crews passed through past to talk with you Politicians get called and the nearest alderman brought in the mix to comment on violence and how they should be accountable Niggas like **** , **** and all of them tryna politic even though you've been honest you don't rock with them niggas The news putting up pictures of the one time your son threw up gang signs cause he was young and he's just following niggas A million right-wing think pieces and panelists dancing with everything shorthanded of "that's the problem with niggas These politicians that’s tryna secure a spot in the office going on tour to ensure us that they impartial to niggas The black celebrity singers and self-proclaimed leaders be making sure they're distinguished from these intolerable niggas These white celebrities posting a pic of Martin and getting praise in the comments like they was out there to march with that nigga The city burning as we await for the verdict People hope for the best but know to expect the worse shit Another killer walks off free, it goes on 6 million ways to die, I chose all

Nigga I was this close Searching up your addy on Obama burner flip phone, and riding through your zip code Fleet of black vans full of black masked, black men ammo full equipped flow Pulling out a dolly like I’m Pitbull Why these niggas work in our hoods? Causing havoc, grabbing niggas by the neck like you're The Big Show Swelling up my lymph nodes We aint get to fully rinse off the flint water. This is Willie Lynch daughter’s son carrying that ritual. I might die for this shit nigga I might die for this so I can’t sit and watch y’all niggas playing games with it I might die for this shit lil nigga I might die for this so I can’t sit and watch y’all niggas playing games with it If I die just plant a tree and mix the ashes I wanna help provide air for the masses Free my soul of these inanimate attachments I don’t want no distractions when the empire crashes I can’t dwell whatever happened in the past tense We cut strings like me, my niggas won the Pac 10 We got a first class ticket to pick a casket niggas aint with the madness, get the fuck to the back then This is about to happen I might die for this shit nigga I might die for this so I can’t sit and watch y’all niggas playing games with it I might die for this shit lil nigga I might die for this so I can’t sit and watch y’all niggas playing games with it

This that rider shit Don’t come outside and shit Don’t run don’t run hide and shit I’m tired of it Popo gon lie and shit Mofos got slide and shit That leadership Ain't no more peace and shit Them niggas don’t speak that shit That PETA shit Niggas don’t want beef and shit my niggas gon eat that shit Finally I think we got to a point in our lives, where we don't just wanna survive We fighting ppl that don’t really want us alive, & they got a gun on their side I'm getting tired, of seeing a momma like mine, on cnn crying, her lil one die Now I’m realizing somebody's lying and niggas got something to hide You thought you had me cornered but I bounced right back (I bounced back bitch) My OG said lil homie don’t go out like that ( (bitch I’m bout that shit) If way more ppls that broke and in poverty, treated like quotas and salary, is worth more than some well off niggas property Why would they sound like that? These niggas rub me the wrong way We let you come into our streets I look like Jesus in 4K I run my fingers through 4C Bitch I aint come in this foreplay They coming at me like 3D They skipped my story like 2K Now all my ppl on one team This that rider shit Don’t come outside and shit Don’t run don’t run hide and shit I’m tired of it Popo gon lie and shit Mofos got slide and shit That leadership Ain't no more peace and shit Them niggas don’t speak that shit That PETA shit Niggas don’t want beef and shit my niggas gon eat that shit Finally I think we got to a point in our lives, where we don't just wanna survive We fighting ppl that don’t really want us alive, & they got a gun on their side I'm getting tired, of seeing a momma like mine, on cnn crying, her lil one died Now I’m realizing somebody's lying and niggas got something to hide

STAND 03:16
I'm fully aware that I'm not perfect but I try I still try, I still try You can see my feelings on the surface. I can't hide. But i still try, I still try I don't even really wanna get to know you Statistics show one of us might go soon No I don't even really wanna get to know you Because I can't take no more heartbreak I can't stand to see my brothers die I can't stand to read my sisters will I can't stand to see our mothers cry I can't stand to see my niggas killed I'm too young to see the other side I can't stand to read my sisters will I can't stand to see our mothers cry I can't stand to see their killers live I know the game, just what it seems to be, won’t be no peace treaty, shit don’t come easily I know the devil I battle him frequently Don’t treat me special no just treat me equally. I know the.. I know the game... Special achievements for putting them rings on me Air out my grievances Stop us illegally Can’t have no weaknesses they’ll try and feast on me Anxious just seeing it U-turn and leave me be Don’t try and speak to me Won’t be no ke-ke-ke How can you preach to me? You don’t believe in me You ain’t that innocent, you ain’t no deity Nothing but blue guess the water runs deep at sea Discipline missing tradition runs deep I see Show me some decency I know the game It’s hard to believe it can change I can't stand to see my brothers die I can't stand to read my sisters will I can't stand to see our mothers cry I can't stand to see my niggas killed I'm too young to see the other side I can't stand to read my sisters will I can't stand to see our mothers cry I can't stand to see their killers live
