Vince Staples - Turn lyrics
rate me(Verse)
Woke up walking on water
Ditching my alma mater
Made a lot of mistakes from mimicking ways of my father
Father, can you forgive me? Sinning since I remember
Back when grand-daddy died, that was a cold December
They closed his casket while my mother's fuckin' hope was in it
Soon as you come out the womb
They hang a rope for niggas, groomed for the stone and the tomb
Going for broke, but shit we've been that, put shit back
The Devil coaching, telling little niggas shoot
Like the title on the line, when its done, this time
I doubt that God can look me in the eye
Before he send me down to Hell, cause I'mma ask a nigga why?
Never played it by the book cause the book was full of lies
And the preacher full of shit, and the teacher full of shit
Used to boo me from the bleachers that I'm never gonna forget
Eating $5 Little Caesar's pizza on the WIC
Cause my daddy left my mama for the motherfucking pen
(Hook)
But when it come down to it now out here shooting
Cause it's all a nigga got
Yeah that's all a nigga got
When it come down to it now the bass head use it
Cause it's all a nigga got
Yeah that's all a nigga got
Find me posted on the block, cause that all a nigga got
Couple hundred in a knot, cause that's all a nigga got
Still running from the cops
Cause it's all a nigga got
Cause it's all a nigga got
Cause that's all a nigga got
(Verse)
All father who are in heaven see my momma dying
Everyday since grade 11, you see her age is catching up
Through all them years of stressing
Tears is falling and the sun to fall, way to catch him
All the calling when she call she gotta leave a message
Cause a nigga working
And I'm working so she worry free cause I defeat the purpose
Medication cause a arm and leg, hardly even worth it
Doctor tripping so I got it nigga feeling John Cue wow
Round sitting with a gun, duck duck goose style
Pressure building up nigga, what you gonna do now?
Brother kid too now, 12 years in the pen
See life end fore' this shit begin, sing again
(Hook)
But when it come down to it now out here shooting
Cause it's all a nigga got
Yeah that's all a nigga got
When it come down to it now the bass head use it
Cause it's all a nigga got
Yeah that's all a nigga got
Find me posted on the block, cause that all a nigga got
Couple hundred in a knot, cause that's all a nigga got
Still running from the cops
Cause it's all a nigga got
Cause it's all a nigga got
Cause that's all a nigga got
(Outro)
One for the fucking money
Two for the fucking show
357 on me, loaded ready to go
I know my bitches love me
Know my enemies don't
My momma know I'm shady
I'm granny bastard baby
Look in the mirror
Like this is what you made me
I'm going crazy please somebody save me
Jesus way to far gone for him to reach me
To reach me
