Fleming St

You know regardless of all the bull s*** it still made me who I am. Yo... How do I fix my mouth to say I'm sorry and all we saw were the flashing lights The tire marks and the body parts by the traffic lights. The sweat from his Mother's brow. The since of disbelief and all the grief that you suffer to lose You oldest child. The stone walls and the phone calls of pity. The foe pauex and The four walls that fall on the city. Flocks of family members that send you They best regards and the faith you can't escape yet it's got you questioning God. How do we find our selves here? What do we represent for? How do we wipe The slate clear? What do we do to ensure? That in store's a bit more. Atonement Or resent for. How do we look the dudes in the face them bullets were probably Meant for? Mentors are useless, police are spiteful. One less to stress about Their sentiments delightful. A pipeful full of candy that came in handy when N****s eat. More than just me rappin this really happened on Fleming Street I said its More than just me rappin this really happened on Fleming Street That's where killers meet, that's where the dealers be, More than n****s Scrapping they really clapping to f***ing eat You ain't gotta listen you ain't gotta know me. This is how it's been, how it's Always gonna be. This is how it is, it's forever gonna be. Forever gonna be How do you take advantage when you young and foul, running wild and careless F*** what they was yelling rebelling against our parents. Moved away in high School though I choose to wallow. Til a shy dude that I knew came to my school With a ralo. And said we started shooting instead of fighting started to Heighten writing it down in my mental journal external likeness of my father Made harder though the harness had me bothered. I was caught, I was brought up Never follow. And how do you leave the place you love? How do you find your Solace? How do you take advantage of living a life of carnage? Harnessed all the Hell and despair. Yelling you seldom prepared. Smell in the air is how the hell Is this fair. And n****s selling powered rock, every hour cowards pop. That's The reason my city's known for liquor stores and flower shops. The same place Where them little n****s and killers meet. More than just a fraction this really Happened on Fleming street I said its More than just me rappin this really happened on Fleming Street That's where killers meet, that's where the dealers be, More than n****s Scrapping they really clapping to f***ing eat You ain't gotta listen you ain't gotta know me. This is how it's been, how it's Always gonna be. This is how it is, it's forever gonna be. Forever gonna be And I over heard the screams from the back room. Was listening by the hallway An argument to determine where would all stay. My mother wants to leave hood She said its all to blame. My father wants to stay. Cause he's not accustomed to Change. We need time to save and you always ready spend. She said what about Your son what if something happens to him huh? Could you forgive yourself just Knowing what was lacking. That's all she needed to say the next day we started Packing. Packing up our sorrows. Packing up a car load. Packing up our Yesterdays and looking towards tomorrow. And all though I'm grown it still hurts And it shows. I could never turn my back its the only home that I know. So What's happening little cuz I'm still in deep shock. We came a long way from Playing by that green box. The same spot where them older n****s and killers Meet. You left us all but ur spirit is still on Fleming Street You left us all but your spirit is still on Fleming Street. That's where killers Meet, that's where the dealers be, More than n****s rapping this really happened On Fleming Street Locksmith
