Crisis, Cortez - Hood PTSD Lyrics

First of the month on the bus up north
Got to get these packs off
On the fifth got court
Just a shorty should've been playing ball on the court
Like Kobe got drafted early to a blood sport
Life in the Bronx
The land of the lost
Where gees bare arms
Tattoo their skin with psalms
Put ice on a cross
Ambitions of an underworld boss
Waltz with the devil like Michael and Hyman Roth
Got to pay the cost to play and hope you make it through the maze
From project hallways to the ave they let the metal spray
Everyday a dice game
Gamble with your life
Get numb to the loss and pain
Hearts turn to ice
Serving dee and hard white
Lookouts holla when they see the dees
Stress on the brain
Burning trees is my therapy
Streets turn you to a soldier give you PTSD
Keep the safety off looking at everyone like enemies
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Had to grow up in these streets fast get my paper up
Learn to use a digi scale
Load the hammer up
Survival of the fittest
Living life dangerous
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Had to grow up in these streets fast get my paper up
Learn to use a digi scale
Load the hammer up
Survival of the fittest
Living life dangerous
Survival of the fittest
Riding 'round trying to get it
With a stash box full of work
Was grindin' in the civic
Poverty
Did dirt
I was clocking to the the limit
Only way they hate Cort was on trial as a defendant
Made a killing in the kitchen in the building with the tenants
I'ma drug dealers dream boy
I could've been a chemist
I front work
Yes, still
They never gave me credit
The raw left jaws numb like a dentist
Goons be in attendance
Mobbing every hour in the lobby in the towers
We was charging for the powder with the hammer in the Hemmi
Gassing through the city
Couldn't eyeball a brick so they travel with the digi
Scale for the weight
Frail and you fake
Couldn't bail so you told
You were out the next day
No moral
No Codes
Live life dangerous
Loyal to the bro's till my coffin sit closed
Yo
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Had to grow up in these streets fast get my paper up
Learn to use a digi scale
Load the hammer up
Survival of the fittest
Living life dangerous
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough
Had to grow up in these streets fast get my paper up
Learn to use a digi scale
Load the hammer up
Survival of the fittest
Living life dangerous
