Track No: 08

Staring at the world through my rearview
Just looking back at the world from another level
You know what I mean?
Staring
Multiple **** fill the block, the fun stops
**** is callin' cops, people ****, nobody stop
I wonder when the world stopped caring last night
Two kids **** while the whole block staring
I will never understand this society
First they try to murder me, then they lie to me
Product of a dying breed
All my homies trying ****
Now the little baby's crazed, raised off Hennessy
Tell me, will my enemies flee when they see me?
Believe me, even thugs gotta learn to take it easy
Listen, through intermissions, search your heart for a plan
We turning bad boys to grown men, it's on again
I give a holla to my **** in the darkest corners
Roll a perfect ****, and let me **** it for you
One love from a thug
**** rolling with a posse full of paranoid ****
To the end, my friend
'Cos I'm seeing nothing but my dreams coming true
While I'm staring at the world through my rearview
See, I'm seeing nothing but my dreams coming true
While I'm staring at the world through my rearview
They got me staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast, 'cause it's time to die
Getting ****, watching time fly
'Cause all my **** staring at the world through my rearview
Go on baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast, 'cause it's time to die
We getting ****, watching time fly
All my **** (Listen)
Now you see 'em, now you don't
Some **** be here for the moment, and then they gone
What happened to 'em?
Well let's see, it seems to be a mystery
But all I know, I never let the money get to me
Stay down like the truest
Thug life until I checkout this ****
I thought you knew this
Who is gonna catch me when I fall or even care to?
While you thinking, I see you lost up in my rearview
Half you is down with them Outlawz
Outcast, left far, I'm through like southpaws
But still we keep mashing till our dreams come through
Staring at the world through my rearview
Now I was raised as a young, black male
In order to get paid, forced to make **** sales
Caught a ****, so they send me to these overpacked jails
In the cell, counting days in this living black hell, do you feel me?
Keys to ignition, use at your discretion
Roll with a **** for protection
**** hate me in the section from years of chin checking
Turn to ****
Heavenly Father, I'm a soldier, I'm getting hotter
'Cause the world's getting colder, baby, let me hold ya
Talk to my **** like they fly ****
All you bustas best to run, look at my ****
Now I know the answers to the question, do dreams come true?
Still staring at the world through my rearview
I said now I know the answer, do dreams come true?
Staring at the world through my rearview
They got me staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting ****, watching time fly
And all my **** staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast 'cause it's time to die
Getting ****, watching time fly, ****, Kadafi say
Back in the days, we hustled for sneakers and beepers, ****
'Cause fools hitting our blocks with street sweepers
Bless myself when knowing rules to these streets
Somethin' I learned in school
On some Million Man March **** for the peace
True that, only one life to lead, a fast life of greed
Criminally addicted, infested since the seed
We all die, breed, bleed like humans
Towns run by young ****, outlaws, and truants, **** deep
Turn eighteen, roll my will when I go
Burn my body with my ****, or choosing my dough
So while you reminiscing all nights out with the crew
****, too, while staring through your rearview
Ha-ha, you ain't knowing what we mean by staring through the rearview
So since you ain't knowing what we mean, let me bring a better understanding
The world, the world is behind us
One a **** get an understanding on the game
And what the levels and the rules of the game is
Then the world ain't no trick no more, the world is a game to be played
So now, we looking at the world from **** watch, behind us
**** know what we gotta do, just gotta put our mind to it and do it
It's all about the papers, money rule the world
**** make the world go round (I can feel your heart beating fast, 'cause it's time to die)
Real **** do they wanna do
**** **** do what they can't
Staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast, 'cause it's time to die
Getting ****, watching time fly
You know, staring at the world through my rearview
Go on, baby, scream to God, he can't hear you
I can feel your heart beating fast, 'cause it's time to die
Getting ****, watching time fly
And we'll be staring at the world through my rearview
Scream to God, he can't hear you
Heart beating fast, time to die
Watching time fly
Staring at the world through my rearview
Scream to God, he can't hear you
Heart beating fast, time to die
Time fly
