Desperados

You know I'm a wanted man

For reasons you won't understand

Prices on my head, for like a hundred grand

Cause I'm wanted dead or alive

You woulda thought I was whippin'

And pushin' and sellin' this dope

(Bang, bang!)

The way that they tell me to get out of town

And then aim for throat

(Bang, bang!)

They tryna ghost you boy

They pullin' the gun out the holster

(Bang, bang!)

But I'm doin' me, I'm doin' me like I'm 'posed to, yeah!

You're smart

Out here like the Wild Wild West

Shorty right there with the wild, wild dress

They tell you can be more if you show less, hol' up

I been around the block a few times, I got a new mind, I'm lit

Man, I was sleepin' on futons

Bread small as crutons

Now my business legit

How many beats do I got to poop on to prove I'm not a fluke?

I want true, a true sign a growth

For you find ways to refine yourself

You win when you lose, aye!

Seem like every team them got a Judas

But I don't care

Give me a snake and I'll make a nice pair of boots with, yeah

I ain't tryna be liked, man, I'm tryna be a light, bang!

I ain't tryna make a livin', man, I'm tryna make a life, bang!

Ayo, that's way different

Nowadays I pray different

Used to ask for mo' blessings

Now I thank Him for the ones He givin'

You know I'm a wanted man

For reasons you won't understand

Prices on my head, for like 100 grand

Now they want me dead or alive

Bang!

They gunnin' for me now

Bang!

They got they weapons drawn

Bang!

They say get out of town

Cause I'm wanted dead or alive

How do you terrify a man that is scared to die

So while I got a mic, I'm a air the lies that paralyze my people

I live by the fear of God

I'm sick and tired of songs that don't dignify a lady

But, baby we givin' them power

The moment you go out

And buy it and give 'em yo' dollars

Why they try to define us by how many commas we got?

They don't know what's inside us

But let me honest, there's something beyond us

Yo, homie, preach!

I gotta speak on my peace

Man, I can't keep it a secret

The only way that you get acceptance is

When you know you don't need it, yeah

Freedom is a mindset, and I ain't in my prime yet

Minor League and one sixteen, yeah

Them my folk I prime with

I think about all that time spent way before success

Get to see the kid shinin'

That's the glimmer from the sweat

Get up and go

Homie, we live by the code

We don't got minutes to blow

Time is more precious than gold

Sharp with the flow

Mix it with lyrics that fix up your soul, oh

I ain't tryna be liked, I'm tryna be a light, bang!

I ain't tryna make a livin', man

I'm tryna make a life, bang!

Alright, now we some desperados

Livin' by the motto

If I die tonight, man, I'm ready for tomorrow

They say get out of town

The truth won't let me lie though

They gunnin' for me now

They know the way I go

They want me dead or alive

I'm wanted dead or alive

I'm wanted dead or alive

I'm wanted dead or alive

I'm wanted dead or alive

I'm wanted dead or alive

I'm wanted

You know I'm a wanted man

For reasons you won't understand

Prices on my head, for like 100 grand

Now they want me dead or alive

Bang!

They gunnin' for me now

Bang!

They got they weapons drawn

Bang!

They say, Get out of town

Cause I'm wanted dead or alive

Bang!
