Like It Is (Explicit) - Vince Staples

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

I tell it like it is then how it could be

Heaven or hell boy freedom or jail boy

A jansport bag full of shit I could sell for

The higher the low boy just me and my homeboys

The police kill us so we made up our own laws

Been fighting this long war there's shells in this shores sand

Still young but a grown man could tell by my stash

Been stackin' money and problems as I wait for the rapture

Death never been no threat I be chillin' relaxin'

Everybody bleed

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make it up to heaven despite the things I've done

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make my momma proud feel like her only son

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

With everything I need with everything I want

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To do it like nobody has ever done

When I was in seventh grade my grandfather

Told me don't get caught lovin' the streets

Cause they never gonna love you back

But I feel like it's all we got so it's all we really do love

At the end of the day I feel like the problem is the people that

Control it don't really come from here

So they can't do nothing but look down on us

We look at them

We see somebody that could help but they look at us

And all they see is a nigga

It don't really matter anyway

We all gon' die one day man one day

Do doves cry when the black man dies

or do we croak with crows

The young catch gun shots the old catch the holy ghost

Ho I love not I never seen no pot of gold

Just ball windows and six fours with no switches

Was broke with no bitches she love me though

You'll kill me if it make you richer

What you screaming you my brother for

Heart is where the hatred is the brain

that stained the love below

And life is what you make it so I'm makin' money for my folks

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make it up to heaven despite the things I've done

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make my momma proud feel like her only son

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

With everything I need with everything I want

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To do it like nobody has ever done

When most people look at a person

Who does what I do they look at us with

These preconceived notions as if

It's a set way for us all to be

But we all people at the end of the day

So I wonder why we don't treat each other like it

You're looking at a person telling them that

They story don't matter when they're no better than me

Walkin' down the streets tryna shoot at somebody

Cause all we got is these dreams man

And y'all ain't never had to not have nothing

And that's the last thing you want from anybody

Is to not really have nothing

I been through hell and back I seen my momma cry

Seen my father hit the crack then hit the set to flip a sack

I done seen my homies die then went on rides to kill 'em back

So how you say you feel me

when you never had to get through that

We live for they amusement like

they view us from behind the glass

No matter what we grow into we never gonna escape our past

So in this cage they made for me exactly where you find me at

Whether it's my time to leave or not I never turn my back

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make it up to heaven despite the things I've done

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To make my momma proud feel like her only son

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

With everything I need with everything I want

I gotta be I gotta be I gotta be the one

To do it like nobody has ever done

Nobody has ever done
