Ridin' in the city like I own it
Yea like I own this shit
Live & die in the city yea I'm on it
Lookin' at everybody like they an opponent
28 winters yea nigga this the coldest
Wake up nigga smell the folgers
I'm tryin' out here yea these niggas they ain't notice
They gon' wait til a nigga gone to give a nigga roses
Mine still waitin' on the throne
Playin' ring around the rosie
Came a long way from sittin' in the nosebleeds
I ain't going back to the old me
Only god knows why I feel this pain
I been outside tryna feel the rain
If the cops catch me then I plead insane
They gon' have to kill me 'fore I leave the game
I know why the birds sing in the cage
I been in the cage
Yea Yea
On my side, yea the tree's bigger
And the rivers swimming with fish
Better watch your ass 'fore you get hit
Live by the code, by the regiment
All black trucks like the president
I create the wave, now they sea sick
If the cops catch me I ain't seen shit
My teachers always said I wouldn't be shit
The OGs told me I'ma be rich
Now I'm in the middle
Forget to live a little
Foot on the pedal
Got that heavy metal
I'ma never settle
Dancin' with the devil
Pray we live forever
Swerving in a rental
Say a nigga mental
Birds of a feather
We gon' flock together, We gon' sing together
Ridin' in the city like I own it
Yea like I own this shit
Live & die in the city yea I'm on it
Lookin' at everybody like they an opponent
28 winters yea nigga this the coldest
Wake up nigga smell the folgers
I'm tryin' out here yea these niggas they ain't notice
They gon' wait til a nigga gone to give a nigga roses
Mine still waitin' on the throne
Playin' ring around the rosie
Came a long way from sittin' in the nosebleeds
I ain't going back to the old me
Only god knows why I feel this pain
I been outside tryna feel the rain
If the cops catch me then I plead insane
They gon' have to kill me 'fore I leave the game
I know why the birds sing in the cage
I been in the cage
Yea Yea
