good life '16 - cantrell lyrics

[intro]
yeah yeah (dviousmindz beat tag)
look…

[verse 1]
the only soundcloud rapper this good
i don’t wear it proudly, that’s just where found me
out in dirty county where mud get murky
better move with a purpose ‘cause them boys steady lurkin’… in the 9
i heard numbers don’t lie
my dotted line ain’t come with a co*sign
know i got the drive i’m running the stop signs
thought i seen god, that was a sight for sore eyes
where i’m from we ain’t have eazy*e
it was pop, boatwright, earl price and junior pete
who we wanted to be…
iced out, rolling on dubs, giving money to the kids so the hood eat free and all the birds come clean in my dreams
they don’t know about me
they don’t know my story sh*t got gory in the sly
bullets hitting windows mama holding down
coming home late from work, our door kicked, sh*t real on this side
weird n*gga and the cool at the same time
gotta swallow my pride
they gotta feel me this time, this sh*t deeper than rhymes
this way deeper than who the best and who up next dawg i’m focused prayers up, he got wet, they super soaked him
swimming in the land of the sharks or with crabs in the bucket if you lucky
[chorus]
where the sun goes down… heroes eventually slide and dope boys pay their tithes
where the slugs all gold but it ain’t all smiles
so if you scared of more than god
boy don’t come outside
‘cause it’s up

[verse 2]
granny on my line and she sending me scriptures
she a jehovah’s witness so is my mama’s sister
ironic, i was never religious ‘cause it seemed so distant rather be in the creek with my n*ggas
i peeped the hypocritics… they never listen
my heart is dark, i… gotta aunt viv it
walking timid in conversation with christians
god complex how they judge and render a sentence medicate daily my meditation is prayer
like, i hit shawty raw now i’m praying dodging the scare highway to heaven i’m thinking i’ll take the stairs
gotta pace it out, got way more living to share
but back to the family bidness
my granny got favorites out of her grandchildren
my favorite aunt drink, but missed her niece bday pictures but i’m afraid as a child i compromised her kiddies
new years eve mama dragging me to church
wasn’t with it but a voice had to call my bluff
i’m like, f*ck it, i guess i’ll try my luck
i mean i did buy a bible but ya boy been stuck
sitting in the pews, preacher man preaching
sounds like he talking to me, but i’m on defense
now i’m outerbody but feel it deep down inside me
on my 1st time joining a church, i seen zion
[chorus]
where the sun goes down… heroes eventually slide and dope boys pay their tithes
where the slugs all gold but it ain’t all smiles
so if you scared of more than god
boy don’t come outside
‘cause it’s up

[verse 3]
my life flashed before my eyes
halloween 2016 i’ll tell y’all why
another day selling shoes, y’all know how i do, or so i thought early am making a drop
dudes had the drop on me
staking out for weeks, or months, i can’t call it
barely hear the footsteps got my air pods in
thought it was a prank or a joke of sorts
another behind the car, eyes no remorse
hands up like “you got it”
i can see it in his eyes he wanna try it, i pray that he don’t
he ran off, 2nd shooter on me though
shirts pulled over they head like cornholio
i know that look he got an itch
all it take is a twitch
of the finger, then i’m lying
face down in a ditch
not a singer, all i’m thinking
let me go, i won’t snitch
where is god? i kind of need him
i don’t see him. this is it
now i’m running off hope i don’t ricky’d
left all alone n0body to come and get me
i’m p*ssed off, who am i gon call?
feeling like tre with my boyz in da hood with me allegedly, i might’ve had folks looking for ‘em
then i seen ‘em on the news, we went to the same school they hit 2 more spots later that night
and i’m the only one they ain’t shoot
god is good
