about
Donwill: Okay so as Ilwil, me and Ilyas have a billion unreleased songs just sitting on his computer wasting their collective lives, these lyrics belonged to one of those songs, 2 of those songs actually. The first half of the verse is from a song where we portrayed opposing sides of a persons duality, I was of course the surface/exterior and he was supposed to portray the thoughts/interior of said individual but for some reason that never came into fruition. The second verse comes from an outtake of a song we did for this guy in Cincinnati (we actually recorded a whole album with this guy but that's a WHOOOLE 'nother story) the verses just happened to be in the same notebook and when I was looking for verses to go on this beat it just so happened that these two synced up perfectly to display the duality that me and Ilyas were gonna try and convey on the original song.
SuhBURB: This is one of, if not my absolute favorite Donwill verse. I'm still pretty geeked that it's on one of my beats.
lyrics
dirty with it, hard livin, take whats not given/ god given right to exist could be a curse in this/ skin im in no position shouldnt even be given/ faded as rainbow, rainin where the sun go?/ aint about to show no weakness whats that about?/ (get) outta line and challenge mine im knockin all them teeth out/ heavy metal barely balanced, tuggin on my waistline/ cant settle caged in, cant take more im/ close edge, nose dove, free fallin, hit the ground/ spazzed out, shots fired, woke up in lock down/ never thought id kill until driven to murder/ looked fun on menace, jackin rides just to order burgers/ for them nissan trucks, right in the drive thru/ but thats an interlude on icecube this my life dude/ might do life dude, no death penalty/ sittin in the holdin cell and wait for them to sentence me/ every minute, every second pass like a century/ the shit get real b/ be cause theres no peace as well/ cause my heaven could be yo hell/ now think about that/ i might have love in the streets but none in the house/ cant come in the house momma wanted me out/ and the man of the house didnt make her his spouse/ say im just like that nigga she cant stand my mouth/ and i cant stand lookin like a charity case/ so i take mines make a way whatever it takes/ heavy metal, federal scams, or peddling base/ niggas make deadly mistakes and i take em away/ and this game aint for play but i do it to play/ big boy toys homie whip the escalade/ live savage just to be in the ranks of the civilized/ bad as it sounds im just tryna survive
