Smoke & Retribution lyrics

You ain't got no money, I ain't got no time

All these faces lookin' funny when I'm drivin' by

Had to tint my whip, my name is buzzin'

Know they plan on killin' mine

Aim it at your temple, we was taught to kill a nigga mind

Genocide buried in the tide, cleanse it in the sand

Blood is sittin' in my hands, I'll never be the bigger man

I know they'll never understand, but I don't give a fuck

Lift your hands up high before I stick you up

I held you to the ground 'cause you were floating

Told me you're afraid of disappointing

Pushing on your physical existence

Pushing only cause you felt resistance

Can't help but think about the situation

Tryna get to see but my mind's racing

Only got each other we can turn to

Lying here, I know they'll never break you free

You and me nobody else

If it can't be that way then I'll just be all by myself

I love the way you stay away from me, you make me melt

Those nights you used to come and stay with me

Replaying in my memory, it's no such thing as "Meant to be"

That's fine 'cause you so fine, the way you walk, you talk

The way you leave your mark, just can't break you from my thoughts

Walkin' through Ramona Park like they wasn't tryna shoot me up

Doing all we did, we still ain't do enough

Leaving through the night and starting fires

Going through society's desires

Smoke and retribution, keep it burning

Only 'cause of sorrow I'll be learning

Can't help but think about the situation

Tryna get to see but my mind's racing

Only got each other we can turn to

Lying here, I know they'll never break you free

Nah, I ain't scared of six feet

'Cause I ain't scared to be free

All I seen while on this earth

Know that hearse can't be too worse

Tell the woman that I hurt

That I apologize for all my lies

And tell my mama blame my karma

Hate she had to see me die

I just wanna see the sky

Shinin' from the other side

Lookin' down on all my friends

Makin' sure they're walkin' right

Cause ain't nobody watch our back

And this life way too hard for that

I made it out with my heart intact

Might harm me, still can't harvest that
