Hook
I be up in the streets,deep off in the game, but you know this ain't a game, I be up in the streets, deep off in the game, but you know this ain't a game,(repeat1)
Verse1
Started off in the shallow, barely had my foot wet,swam to the deepside,in back a my head with regret,everything I learned, soaked it up like a towel did,snapped quick hissy fit,best friends with my temper,I was broke I remember,I be there in a little bit,that's what I said to the broke bitch, curve ball pitch, the pinched,ratchet wrench, teenage boy when I had my first offense,l.p to scillmore 6 months in holton camp, 2 days in central j,testing, good enough diploma g.e.d is what Im getting,all this time back in the day for a gun posession, fuck your whole life up! Why you do it? That's the question.hard headed still ain't learn my lesson,the more things you go through, the more you pay attention, its time to catch on,street will get you worse here,clean yo pockets like detergents, best to walk away, before your situation worsens

Verse2
Painting picture like picasso, bout the streets I be living in, home of the weak minded, people always giving in,they get mad at the world all cuz the position that they (be) in,I'm in the same spot, where opportunitie knocks,same shit different toilet,can't avoid it,on the block,we all hustle for different reasons,that's why we don't stop, goals we achieving,others pipa chiefing, we got plans to make it out,others ain't even planning on leaving, broke up in the pockets what they being,but when you deep up in the game, the outer limits what you reaching,way past the next, use the cause and effect,no malcolm in the middle man,always direct,sock full a money,no check,clean slate no wreck, numbers on the deck, no focus on a set, just dineros that I get,counting numbers as I sit, can't call it quits,charge the money like a quarterback blitz,crystal grip, fa chipz

Verse3
call me chance the rapper, game took a chance on me in a world full a backstabbers,take my time , call me lagger, done the game like adam levine did his bitch like mkjagger,extreme content you in the game at a glance, you got a little bit a money,that you hold like a clamp due, you barely making enough money when the rent due Im ,where the kids boof out and never focus on curfew, where everybody's beards grown out and hit the barber for they hair due,edge up they hairline, southwest airlines,when? How? Where? Why? Fuck up they whole life,female smoked out, they so high,no lie,I know why,you fucked up your own program, that's the reason,why the streets is so dry,for you, its always depending on the person, to whom it may concern, be careful who your burning, end up with the shock lights,carma gone confirm it,my reflection is my homeboy, dirty.
