dark days (Explicit)

21 Savage：
I finally got the fame and fortune that I prayed for
Who would have thought I would emerge from all that gun smoke
This for all the teenagers that wanna gun tote
'Cause they cheaper in the hood than in the gun store on God
You gon' lose a lot of your friends and that's what hurt the most
You can't do nothin' but reminisce about y'all crackin' jokes
You feelin' like nobody love you I know how that go
You gotta love yourself lil' nigga that's gon' help you glow on God
I know it might sound lame but just stay in school 21
They got a place that they put people who don't follow rules yeah
You probably got your mama scared don't wanna watch the news
Ready to risk your life and freedom for a pair of shoes
Yeah you say you love your switch but they don't love you back
You can hug that block all night it ain't gon' hug you back facts
Some of your friends gon' reincarnate and come back as rats pussy
And after your candlelight they ain't gon' give your mama jack
Now your brother kids askin' where they daddy at
So you gotta lie and tell 'em he just took a nap damn
You done failed in the streets so now you tryna rap
But that ain't really workin' for you so it's back to trap damn
Mariah the Scientist：
When it's all said and done
There's some things you can't run from
It's hard to decide
Either live or you die
I I ask myself was it all worth the risk
'Cause I can't pretend yeah
I can't stand the thought of losing you
Both：
I know how it feel to see your dawgs stretched out on God
And watch him struggle tryna let his last breath out damn
You don't wanna do it
But you lost some real niggas that you gotta step out
One more seat left in the car you gotta help out yeah
Niggas stressed out yeah
Probably why I tell the kids to put the guns down oh facts
Gangsta but I still cry when nobody around
Tryna numb the pain drinkin' bottles 'til I drown 'til I drown 21
Never do no suicide
But I'd be lyin' if I said it hadn't crossed my mind
I hurt on the inside and I still act like I'm fine
Why the judge give my nigga Paul all that time
Free Paul hey
Heard they lockin' niggas up for what they put in rhymes
Standin' on this **** oh **** it I'm still writin' mine **** 'em oh
This what growth look like no more committin' crimes 21
I stayed out the way and made a way for us to grind 21 21
Mariah the Scientist：
When it's all said and done all said and done
There's some things you can't run from
It's hard to decide
Either live or you die live
I I ask myself ask myself was it all worth the risk was it all
'Cause I can't pretend yeah
I can't stand the thought of losing you
All my dawgs too
Both：
Forever-ever Eastside Eastside
This **** 'posed to be for life supposed to be for life 4L
Jumpin' **** since we was five 21 five
We got that fire we was nine nine
Even though I'm up up
You can see the pain in my eyes
I mean like **** love on God
But either way I'm still gon' try
Got me ****** up 21
Seein' my twin on Channel 5
I 'cause even gangsters cry
I I I
Gangsters cry

My son this is your time
I know your heart
And I've watched you rise above many challenges
And you have made me so proud
I pray for many more fulfilling experiences
As you elevate to new levels of growth purpose and success
Dreams really do come true
By the grace of the source of life
So be it
