I Don't Wanna Wait
It's like where we're from, you'd be lucky to make it out Not everybody gets this chance God help us all J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League I'm from the block where the powder blew minds 'Cross the street from the spot fiends crowded two lines Summertime hot, had to shower two times My very first pair was the Powder Blue 9s Thought Jordans and a gold chain was livin' So I molded my image out of God's Son's vision To the point every communion that I'm gettin' I'm in Bred 11s and Bordeaux 7s Christ, it was written and rap was our religion Let my OG mold me, he hustled for a livin' 16 in the spot, close enough to smell it Rode with him on his shift, he never let me sell it Lost my mind 'round the time that bro got locked Couple years before that is when Kev got shot I mean... I could've been a crash test dummy Pumpin' for herringbones, beeper and sneaker money Said I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til that sunshine turn to rain 'Til them good times go away SongtexteSaid I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til the devil take control Gotta hold on to my soul Don't wanna wait My brother got locked, I only visited once The ride was sick, smelled like someone pissed on the bus He taught me when the gun buck, you duck And I was only 18 the night I almost got touched Couple shots close range, I think God intervened Same corner I seen needles in arms of a fiend Same corner I seen teens bear arms for the green Same corner I seen kings die for a dream Somethin' like survivor's remorse So when I hit St. Paul's, make the sign of the cross Word to Wallace and the solace that I find in the lord Found God 'round the time Al died in the Bronx Bless Brad, bless Brad for the gangsta and the gospel The Fix was like the Bible, Face was our Apostle My fate was in the bottle, I chased with a Clamato Vodka shots, no tomorrow, Hail Mary with my eyes closed Said I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til that sunshine turn to rain 'Til them good times go away Said I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til the devil take control Gotta hold on to my soul Don't wanna wait Everyone addicted to somethin' Some addicted to drugs, some addicted to hustlin' Some addicted to women, some addicted to sinnin' It's the rush, the adrenaline, the high when it's settlin' I tap a vein, hopin' that my dreams pop 'Cause I don't wanna wake up, and then the dream stop But I can't sleep either Seen dudes better than me turn underachiever Men with ambition get hit, turn up missin' I almost got shot, I started seein' things different My homie baggin' in the kitchen I'm just waitin' for this Hennessy to kick in These drunk thoughts, soberin' my soul Seen karma come around, startin' to lose control Just tryna get it 'fore the time pass 'Cause I don't know how long the ride lasts Said I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til that sunshine turn to rain 'Til them good times go away Said I don't wanna wait No, I don't wanna wait 'Til the devil take control Gotta hold on to my soul Don't wanna wait Aus Songtexte Mania
