Cold Facts

They stand the test, got Father Time rhymes
I know Im blessed, Father, pardon my crimes
Just wanted to stack and ride Beemers;
Dont laugh on the ave with a pack of hyenas
Come through with the pride, get attacked with five ninas
Got trapped, now Im fly, now Im back with my Venus
The dream is live clean, and good livin
As free as it seems, but this shit is a hood prison
So we sold that poison like Bivins
Made noise and quietly gave sisters nice ribbons
Fxck them cops and swats with night vision
Give me three days, well celebrate like Christs risen
Grew up with good-spirited goons;
Now I only see em in tombs or in visiting rooms
Hold the chrome tight; the beasts on the creep
I own the night, the heats my receipt
I need peace; all that beef sh!t is weak
But n!ggas that talk trash get sweeped in the street
Washed down the gutter
Whatever remains gets tossed round your mother
Jump the squares, made em crown another
I see your traps and your plots to dead us
Yall rode with Kojaks, n!gga, I got Berettas
I heat it up with cold facts
I heat it up with cold facts
Hood pyrotechnics with no alarms
I blew up the block when I sold them bombs
And all them n!ggas that didnt turn pros is cons
Guns 24 karat, got golden arms
Good metal, dont settle for silver of bronze
With the fruits of my labor, Im building farms
The illest psalms written with killer palms
And a scoundrel mind
But nice cyphed with anybody down to rhyme
Too much vision, them n!ggas soundin blind
They must be in the dark, downing swine
A titan... Yeah, but Im enlightened
Should build museums from all the sh!t Im writin
Y'all n!ggas weak, check my speak, start bitin
I dont speak too much; words more potent
Live n!ggas say it with me; herbs, dont quote it
Colt loaded, waitin for a reason
Praise me when Im dead, make bread when Im breathin
Cant take it when Im leavin
Judge me too quick, mistake me as a heathen
Because I had tools, moved weight, and was thievin
But I was broke, out the gate I was grievin
Had a cold heart cause my apartment was freezin
Studied this 30 years, so you could say its mastered
Thorough n!ggas, its in my nucleic acid
I heat it up with cold facts
I heat it up with cold facts
