BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
toy soliders (freestyle)
- If I could recollect before my hood days
- I'd sit and reminisce, thinking of bliss of the good days
- I stop and stare at the younger, my heart goes to 'em
- They tested, it was stress that they under
- And nowadays things changed
- Everyone's ashamed to the youth cause the truth looks strange
- And for me it's reversed, we left them a world that's cursed, and it hurts
- 'cause any day they'll push the button
- and you all condemned like Malcolm X and Bobby Hutton died for nothing
- Don't them let me get teary, the world looks dreary
- but when you wipe your eyes, see it clearly
- there's no need for you to fear me
- if you take your time to hear me, maybe you can learn to cheer me
- it ain't about black or white, cause we're human
- I hope we see the light before its ruined
- my ghetto gospel
- I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure
- Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders
- I ain't never supposed to show it, my crew ain't supposed to know it
- Even if it means goin' toe to toe with a Benzino it don't matter
- I'd never drag them in battles that I can handle unless I absolutely have to
- I'm supposed to set an example
- I need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'em
- If some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em
- That Ja shit I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop it
- There's a certain line you just don't cross and he crossed it
- I heard him say Hailie's name on a song and I just lost it
- It was crazy, this shit went way beyond some Jay z and Nas shit
- And even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost it
- I spent too much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted
- And I'm so caught in it I almost feel I'm the one who caused it
- This ain't what I'm in hip hop for, it's not why I got in it
- That was never my object for someone to get killed
- Why would I wanna destroy something I help build
- It wasn't my intentions, my intentions were good
- I went through my whole career without ever mentionin'
- And that was just out of respect for not runnin' my mouth
- And talkin' about something that I knew nothing about
- Plus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef
- So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth
- While he's all over t.v. down talkin' a man who literally saved my life
- Like fuck it i understand this is business
- And this shit just isn't none of my business
- But still knowin' this shit could pop off at any minute cause
