Gangster turn informer when the jig's up, your tool mix up, mix up Babylon boys get bodies left for pick up Blood puddle, gun muffle, guns couple Muzzle in mouth, we bring trouble
Soon police come rush, whole family crushed All because them *** couldn't 'ush Shot box mouths with no covers Body 'pon body gets stacked one top the other Wish them hadn't to suffer

Nobody seen nothing, heard nothing, they ain't said a word Just chalk and yellow tape with blood 'pon them shirts Ashes to ashes, his body back to the earth That casket dropped six feet then throw upon it dirt
Mum's the word, that's hustler's etiquette Ya rather hang yourself than turn state evidence Ever since I was young never talk to the folk Tongue small like a rudder yet steer the 'ole boat
Loose lip the reason that ship no longer float Telling the Feds everything they wanna know That fatal blow took his very last breath The power of the tongue, is life and death, you feel me?

Speak, speak of freedom Sing of amber, waves of grain
With every line written and all I have given Music's been nothing more than a self-made prison I've taken inmate losses at the hands of this one My pen's been the poison to family and friendships
Now is time to mend ***, time to bring closure to The clear conscience of Pusha is long overdue Thinking to myself what can I be owing you They only tell you great when they reminiscing over you
Before I trouble T-boy, it's just a D-boy Let me play the role of a common on his B-boy Speaking my truth in rhyme no matter how bland it is A heavy heart lighting that's just what my ransom is
All apologies, I bear the cross I wear the blame We in the same group but I don't share my brother's pain Not to confuse our sentiments are all the same I just don't feel nothing, I'm numb by the will to gain
Same thing brought tears to innocence I turned away and didn't even flinch, yeah The music drove me crazy looked up and lost the first *** I ever wanted to have my babies
Nowadays she can't even face me I'm sorry for the heartbreak I promised you forever my lady, Jodeci baby Pompus ***, just look what them jewels made me I'm only finding comfort in knowing you can't replace me
What a thing to say but what am I to do? I'm role playing a conscious *** and true is true Cocaine aside all of the bloggers behoove My critics finally have a verse of mine to jerk off to I own you all
Speak of freedom Sing of amber, waves of grain
This is where the buck stop, here's where I draw the line I touched the hem, God's work is so divine I seen the error of my ways over time Never to return, Malicious had been refined
Like wine, with time I get better Napa Valley vintage, my flow is fermented Now drink of me, as if I bought the bar Run to these words as if there's no tomorrow
Never mind my car, careful what you wish for Behind every curtain the devil and his pitchfork Jealousy, I ask thee, what is this for? How was I to know I was happy being piss poor
No whore, that's not love, we was *** I was in search of a chicken-head, you was clucking And I was lusting, we were both out of order I shoulda known better as I'm reminded of my daughter
'Am I My Brother's Keeper' or 'For Himself Every Man'? I have been your reaper, there's blood on my hands Accept me as your keeper, there's been a change of plans Careful what you speak of, I've come to understand, peace
What else do you want from us, huh? What more can you ask (Speak, speak of freedom) We'll give you everything, we lost life, we lost love (Sing of amber, waves of grain)
We lost family behind this *** This *** you call music, we call this *** life We gave you proof, they give you ***, we gave you truth Do I entertain you, ***? Well, dance then ***
'Til the casket drop, 'til the casket drop 'Til the casket drop, 'til the casket drop 'Til the casket drop, 'til the casket drop 'Til the casket drop, 'til the Lord say stop
[Chorus] Last night what I seen made my life change Made my life change, Made my life change, Made my life change, Made my life change, Made my life change, Yeyet yet yet I move on, Yeh yes I move on, Yeh yes I move on, Yeh yes I move on, (hear me out now)
Where I'm from see us guy don't believe in luck I can't beleive what they doin to my nigga buck Facin time, 25 to life 25 the same thing as life Only chips is to fight or to forfiet Baby momma tryin to make the mortgage Daughters playin, tryna put cha back up in the portrait Uh it's like the tear never stop When u was home it's like the smiles never drop Collect calls with all the hopes of the best And hang up with a knot in my chest See see your cell is my hell My hell is our pain The hurt gon never stop until we see you home again And that's all we wanna see Maybe in a dream but not a memory Forget that hold your head man head man Last night what I seen made my life change
[Chorus]
I was retchid, pitful, poor, blind, and naked So much so I had left my family forsaken A troubled soul whose heart was often achin So much dough but my spirit ever so vacant Foul and fragrant I was taken off course The road ahead should have ended me in divorce But now I see clearly with the family of 4 Never did I deserve a 2 seater porshe Heart filled with remorse, my life was such a mess Now I'm back on board due to the lords GPS One eighty degree turn whoever couldve guessed
Malice believe in his heart and out my mouth I confess YES more than blessed I was choosen I been on the troop, my wisdom is that of old men Wasted so much time stuntin for folk When really the whole time I was just stuntin my growth A message to the youth, what I'm offerin is hope Now somethings gotta change I'm at the end of my rope CAUSE
[Chorus]
You know I gotta go and get it There aint no other choice in it Aint tryin to be a part of the percentage Hear me out now
Lord knows I done seen the worlds cold shoulder Seein my future thru the crystal ball of bakin soda Oasis of hoes, my champagne supernova The high life and high times, I watched em turn sober Seen it all come crashin crashin The FEDs was at the door, and no they not askin Sayin they found drugs but they aint talkin asprin Diesel design ones and I aint talkin fast shit
Money hoes and clothes is malices past tense All said forgiven, all you do is askin Even when laughin I can't explain the hurt Knowin I can't change the world in a verse Even to my self I'm feelin my screws loose But how can I deny what I know to be true When I dint have a clue, shoulda viewed it as a gift Now I see what they mean ignorance is bliss
[Chorus]
You know I gotta go and get it There aint no other choice in it Aint tryin to be a part of the percentage Hear me out now

[Verse 2 - Malice] It's not for you to do as I do rather do as I say These footsteps could lead you astray, Lead you to the cell or lead you to a grave Either way you may never see the light of day Don't let my wrongs do you the right away To immilate my past escapin the lords grasp Told you the truth yet who was I to brag Especially seeing how?armani fines ain't hard to last I miss my homie but she's missing her dad It weighs on my conscious and I hate conscious rap Apart from that I wish to see you succeed
So I speak to my people on the spirit of chuck d You behind the glass trust me and cut deep Then the words to every verse on it me in my sleep So now what you see is malice and contradiction People have hears hope you listenin come on

Pusha-T; With every line written, And all I have given Music's been nothing more than a self made prison I've taken inmate loses at the hands of this one My pen's been the poison to family and friendships Now is time to mend shit, Time to bring closure to The clear conscience of Pusha is long over due Thinking to myself, what can I be owing you? They only tell you great when they reminiscing over you Before I trouble t-boy, It's just a D-boy Let me play the role of a common on his B-Boy Speaking my truth in rhyme no matter how bland it is A heavy heart lighting that's just what my ransom is All apologies, I bear the cross I wear the blame We in the same group but I don't share my brothers pain Not to confuse, Our sentiment are all the same I just don't feel Nothing I'm Numb by the will to gain Same thing brought tears to innocence I turned away And didn't even flinch, Yuuch The music drove me crazy Looked up and lost the first bitch ever wanted to have my babies Nowadays She can't even face me I'm sorry for the heartbreak I promised you forever my lady, Jodeci baby Pompus muthafucka! Just look what them jewels made me I'm only finding comfort in knowing you can't replace me What a thing to say! But what am I to do? I'm role playing a conscious nigga And true is true Cocaine aside All of the blogger behoove My critics finally have a verse of mine to jerk off to I owe you all

How was I to know I was happy being piss poor No whore, that's not love, we was fucking I was in search of a chicken head; you was clucking And I was lusting We were both out of order I shoulda known better as I'm reminded of my daughter Am I my brothers keeper for himself every man I have been your reaper, there's blood on my hands Except me as your keeper, there's been a change of plans Be careful of what you speak of, I've come to understand bitch

[Verse 1 - Pusha T] Follow the leader exhaust pipes and breathers, The flash from the barrel turns bullies to believers, The time of the life make the bitches wanna keep ya, This is my reality want it well let me teach ya
