I Self Devine - Up Aboves lyrics

rate me

born in the la district; was a misfit, never ign'nt

treated unfit but i wont quit. i was raised strict

and gazed in amazement, engaged with the pavement.

through the maze of inhumane shit

underprivileged functions;

seein' roaches in your lunches;

not trippin, still eatin' it.

no electro, no heat n' shit.

thought it was the norm:

rats in the kitchen,

no front lawn.

in the dark but i saw the light.

at first sight i was born to fight

with blood, sweat, intellect

on the corner wet, payin' dues intersect.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.

whole tables of cocaine, what i seen it was close range,

when i seen it was so strange:

try to breathe and your life change.

god ain't in my life, my family ain't actin' right.

so its off to the deep end,

fall asleep descent

to a world full of victims, walking dead.

can't see the symptoms, sippin on venom and emotions.

three wheel motions in the field and we coastin.

im a certified vet of genocide when i murdered my kin.

divided in life and it saddens me, you're noddin' though for pain; different tragedy.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.

struggle built me, from all that slug we're filthy

not healthy; when you down there's no helping.
