## Lyrics

Real n\*ggas is a dyin' breed, but I'm still maintaining

Made it out the hood, I still pop out on some gang shit

My day one n\*ggas, them the n\*ggas that I came with

Ain't no big homies, we just reckless gangbanging

Don't get caught in the mix 'cause this shit is very dangerous

Guess you want some clout, we gon' really make you famous

Skrrt, skrrt, skrrt, i8, watch me lane switch

If you ain't talkin' money, n\*gga, you don't speak my language

We grew up playin' cops and robbers, I was never 12

They tried to warn us like we gon' see them Heaven gates or jail

Free ManMan, fuck the law, just got his letter in the mail

Eyeballing the work, this shit don't ever touch a scale

Was fighting petty cases, I couldn't even pay my bail

Now it's thirty on my wrist, I paid a stack for these Chanels

I drew up a new game plan and bounced back from them L's

Made it through the storm, they ain't think that I was gon' prevail

Glock up on my hip and this bitch got thirty shells

Just look at us, we lost it, pussy n\*gga, can't you tell?

Lil Wooski lost his brothers, he gon' give them n\*ggas hell

Leave 'em on the ground leakin' out, skin turning pale

Real n\*ggas is a dyin' breed, but I'm still maintaining

Made it out the hood, I still pop out on some gang shit

My day one n\*ggas, them the n\*ggas that I came with

Ain't no big homies, we just reckless gangbanging

Don't get caught in the mix 'cause this shit is very dangerous

Guess you want some clout, we gon' really make you famous

Skrrt, skrrt, skrrt, i8, watch me lane switch

If you ain't talkin' money, n\*gga, you don't speak my language

Them was my sandbox n\*ggas like I been with 'em since birth

Tryna pull up on they corner and make n\*ggas disperse

We just want 'em to feel our pain 'cause we been hurt

They took one of ours, we just tryna get reimbursed

Took so many losses, swear I thought the hood was cursed

Started off with nothing, had to get this shit from the dirt

And life been better now, but I'm still expecting the worst

I hop in foreigns for my boys who took a ride in that hearse

And I been going hard 'cause I'm content on comin' in first

God whispered in my ear and told me kill every verse

Feel like I'm goin' numb, swallowin' these X pills and Percs

Them drugs beatin' me, feel like my heart gon' jump through my shirt

Real n\*ggas is a dyin' breed, but I'm still maintaining

Made it out the hood, I still pop out on some gang shit

My day one n\*ggas, them the n\*ggas that I came with

Ain't no big homies, we just reckless gangbanging

Don't get caught in the mix 'cause this shit is very dangerous

Guess you want some clout, we gon' really make you famous

Skrrt, skrrt, skrrt, i8, watch me lane switch

If you ain't talkin' money, n\*gga, you don't speak my language
