[Intro]
They told me the streets ain't safe
They told me the streets not cool
But I've got streets in my veins and there's some shit I gotta do

[Verse 1]
We got friends and family in the jailhouse
We at the red letterbox and the mails out
How would you feel, you don't know
We got dead friends from these roads
And we won't see them 'till the afterlife
When we see a paigon we have to fight
It could be an old friend and it hurts, but you're told friends been in the dirt
It's like our lives are really cursed, while you dream of beemz and mercs
RIP the mandem from the hood
Free up all the mandem, hope you're good

[Chorus]
Only help if you got beef on the street, only help if you're hustling just to eat
Soldier, they can't disagree
They can't spend one day in your feet
They told me the streets ain't safe
They told me the streets not cool
But I've got streets in my veins and there's some shit I gotta do
They told me the streets ain't safe
They told me the streets not cool
But I've got streets in my veins and there's some shit I gotta do
[Verse 2]
Living like I've got nine lives an'
Already on the verge of my life an'
If I die on the hospital bed or on the curb
I just hope I'll be flying with the birds
All my people on this earth
I just pray you reply to my words
This song might be too deep for you
This song is not too deep for me
I love my squad, I love my crew
I really done seen shit on the streets
RIP the mandem from the hood
Free up all the mandem, hope you're good

[Chorus]
Only help if you got beef on the street, only help if you're hustling just to eat
Soldier, they can't disagree
They can't spend one day in your feet
They told me the streets ain't safe
They told me the streets not cool
But I've got streets in my veins and there's some shit I gotta do
They told me the streets ain't safe
They told me the streets not cool
But I've got streets in my veins and there's some shit I gotta do
