Legendary stuff, so, if you don’t know who I’m talking about, Big Narstie

HB Freestyle, let’s get into this

You like the fire, but you don’t like the flame

You want the lov, but you don’t want the pain

Yin and yang though, they’re on of the same

Yin and yang though, they’re one of the same

‘Cah when there’s love there’s pain and when there’s pain there is love

More time it destroys by trust

Lack of trust, more hate, less love

Trust

New day, same mission

Build an empire for my children

Smart choices keep my arse out of prison

I talk but not everybody listens

Young g can’t take what he’s given

Young g can’t handle how he’s livin'

He saw survival like a mission

PTSD, blud, a serious condition

No money, just hope

And I ain’t oppressed though

Tryna stay afloat

Bought a billion pounds of ammunition

Eye of the tiger, not eye of the kitten

Roll up my sleeves, time to dig in

Purple heart on the field, I refuse to be a victim

No retreat, I refuse to ‘bort the mission

Like a soldier who went AWOL

All I saw was a wall

Man better know I’m not a fool and this ain’t fuckin' April

What’s the mission?

Food on the table

What’s the mission?

Make sure my family’s stable

I was scared of the hand that rocked my cradle

The worst thing with the truth is that it’s painful

The worst thing with the truth is that it’s shameful

But what don’t break you will make you success story

That is when they rate you

They despise, get jealous and get hateful

But to a paigon, I’ll be pavement and laying you

Down

Six by six in wood beneath ground

The fortifiers break the barrier of sound

Proper gritty, open arms, all you heard was a — (baow)

Lion heart, man roar, no miaow

Survival was a mission then, it’s fucked how livin' seems to be a mission now

Had to distance from niggas ‘cause their intentions and their aura was foul

I don’t wanna know why or how

If your number’s not a hundred or a thou'

It’s just adios and ciao

You like the fire, but you don’t like the flame

You want the love, but you don’t want the pain

Yin and yang though, they’re one of the same

Yin and yang though, they’re one of the same

‘Cah when there’s love there is pain and when there’s pain there is love

More time it destroys by trust

Lack of trust, more hate, less love

Trust

(Trust, trust)

(Trust, trust)

(Trust, trust)

(Trust, trust)

(I understand you, fat sweat)
