What up Prodigy n JD Rapper yall got 2 feel me

I remember them days grinding hard just 2 get off a quarter
was tired of eating church's chicken and drinkin faucet water
thank tha lord 4 my farther tha streets was hard but he was harder
told me not 2 loiter on tha corner
that's not how you brought up
2002 I lost my farther a day after Mardi Gras
had me lookin 2 tha sky like why'd he die
not questionin ya judgement
but where i'm from it's corrupted
used 2 care when he was there but now that he's gone i'm like fuck it
wats it
2 a 17yr old
who momma treated him cold
chose 2 remarry and leave em alone
in a 3bdrm home wit no job 2 support em
livin wit my older brother at tha time he was snortin
I was broke and needed funds fom a valuable source and
these drastic measures had a nigga wyldn off course when
i know my daddy wantna hop out his grave
ya baby boy off track this isn't how i was raised
going thru a phase
friends started revealin themselves as we aged
how u my dawg when u full of feline ways
had 2 distance myself and get my life intact
said fuck minimum WAGE and started back writing raps
if i dont get PAID it's a slight chance that imma snap
so i wake up every DAY like where them dollaz at
holla if u hear me are u listenin people
its hard 2 make an honest dolla
so we gettin it illegal
moments of desperation only fill us wit evil
got us sellin all these different drugs killing our people

Damn.... I feel ya bre! Talk about spillin ya heart though ya pen...

yo where im from rent is 15 hun a month
people aint broke but might as well be in the slums
once you get that calculator out
you realise somethins wrong is it taxes theyre taking out?
i spend the same amount yet savins keep fadin
makin 15 a hour twice minimum wage AFTER they raised it*
houses keep losin value ery time they appraise it
yet i made home improvements usin my paycheck
is it inflation? like tires at gas stations?
or balloons clowns be makin shit is gettin flagrant
price of gas is gassed im bout to air it out
if votes fail im takin rocket launchers to the white house
cause i just saw a youtube clip
3 dudes switched a ROM in an electronic voting booth in a minute
an i dont mean a "gimme a minute" minute
i mean 59 point 9 mufuckin seconds
democracy's a joke now, no hope now
Barak's taking triple K funds an Snoop's the only one who spoke out
ery rapper on the east been gotten to
by rap police who have the power to silence you
good cops turn bad now that Fuck The Police song is true
a self-fulfilling prophecy til hip-hop's deceased an
the west is once again where hiphop has moved
fuck wut its comin to, look wut its gotten to
time deprived, frogs in pots slowly boilin alive
im no prankster, this is no jive
KRS said its one thing to lie, another to die
cuz you dint keep your eye, on the shiester
now we gotta worry bout meltin icebergs
an those that dont worry are busy guzzlin yagermeister
too busy to see whats goin on
generals an bosses robbin us nobody says "thas wrong"
no balance of power we cower instead of standing tall
sometimes ya gotta replace textbooks with C-4
when the only "checks" in government "branches" are makin sure the whole tree falls

*minimum wage here was like 5.15 for a long time then they recently raised it to 7 somethin, to make it look like the politicians are doin good
work , when it's all an illusion to any one who can do basic math

i like tha fact you talkin about shit relative to tha working class and not just thuggin on a verse that was str8

i liked how you were rappin bout shit that matters to u
and u made niggaz feel ya pain nice one






almost forgot what part of the n.o. you from

new era=new breed
