Security yeah yeah
Security
Lemme tell yâall a story about somebody I feel was a gangster
And thatâs the very same reason he ainât here with me no moâ
He marched around the cornaâ like a soldier
But not to get no on-the-mic exposure
To question me, I guess he checkinâ me
Iâm feelin like Iâm lookinâ at my own self in the face
As deaths destiny awaits
Us both wearinâ vestsâs, us both stressed from the same pressures
Us both fuckinâ trainwreck wreckless
Guns whip out, he had a .9, I had a .40
I remember a point in time he had mine, I had his shorty
And I could cry tellinâ this story
If you can visualize a downtown crowded street
Somebody was eatinâ ân saw P pull out his piece
And decided to reach
(Security yeah yeah)
Police rolled up on like âPOLICE FREEZE!â
(Security yeah yeah)
Cuffed us up like nothinâ
(Security yeah yeah)
Asked us what we got guns for, we told âem itâs for
(Security yeah yeah)
(Proof this oneâs for you! I love you doody)
Lemme tell yâall a story about somebody I feel was a gangster
And thatâs the very same reason he ainât here with me no moâ
He marched up out his house like a soldier, decided to titty-bar it
A lot of alcohol consumption and drug use, while out with the cityâs hardest
Niggas, foldinâ money up with black face, flickinâ photos
The only thing he was missinâ was my nigga dolo
He decided to leave them and go to an after-hour
After the 4-hour,
He act crazier than Scarface after snortinâ powder
He get into it with this dude, point his piece at him
They say he shot him, problem is, I donât believe that
And on the real I, only know shots flew
And when the smoke cleared they say he got killed by
(Security yeah yeah)
Shot my nigga like that, that
(Security yeah yeah)
Probably shoulda watched his back
(Security yeah yeah)
Itâs fucked up, right?
(Security yeah yeah)
(Proof this oneâs for you! I love you dude)
Lemme tell yâall a story about somebody I feel was a gangster
And thatâs the very same reason he ainât here with me no moâ
I know yâall seen Beef III
And it probably made you think that I ainât like Shady
The truth is, I was at Proofs funeral, cryinâ like a baby
I was sittinâ in the back row
With Vicious, wishinâ I can go up to Marshall,
Denaun, Swifty, Obie, Bizarre, Paul, Levaughn
And say somethinâ positive
After all the negative shit that we been through
Thinkinâ weâd talk one day if it was meant to
Reservations âbout walkinâ up there ân gettinâ in the way
Itâs probably better off to just pray
Thinkinâ my niggas are dyinâ
It was my first time at an over 1000 people funeral with
(Security yeah yeah) R.I.P.
(Security yeah yeah) We love you, P
(Security yeah yeah) R.I.P.
(Security yeah yeah)
(Proof this oneâs for you! I love you dude)
Lemme tell yâall a story about somebody I feel was a gangster
And thatâs the very same reason he ainât here with me no moâ
