Big Hoop - Dark Times Lyrics

You won't make it out the hood
Without a strong mind
I cant name how many times
They tried to break mines
Wanted to dp a nigga I ain't do crime
I bust a mission got promoted to the front line
Back to back the same day i put a nigga on
I wish back then we had recording cell phones
A lot lessons being learned i got stole on
Then every day moving forward they got stole on
School dance that nigga Q wanted to catch fades
But I was scared he chased a nigga till i hit a gate
At that point I turned around there was no escape
I beat his ass knew i had hands
Nigga that day
Me and mike got into it
He punked everybody
Then he ran into me
And realized I ain't everybody
I made him learn he can't fight
Now he got a homi
Thats on god he in jail right now
Nigga Caught a body
I dont break bread with bitch ass niggas
I done learned the hard way my nigga
But it only happened one time
I Grew up hella cautious
Fake niggas in my face
I notice i get nauseous
And I swear that i get down
Cause i done been up on the other side
Ill fuck a nigga up im from the bottom
Now im tryna shine
Im from the trenches do this shit
With or without the nine
I scratched the surface now it's over
Took it overtime

Man i had to tell that bitch
Im not the same nigga
I took a tour and came back
Shit changed nigga
If it ain't mutual
I know I need to stay away
I know Im tripping
I been doin shit the wrong way

A dark past
A dark mind
Bro that shit wild
My stepdad mad me feel like a step child
There was nights I slept on the bathroom floor
Man I wanna know how his heart got that cold
I was angry i needed everybody to feel that
And all the shit it made me do i can't take back
A young nigga turned bully
Use to be the victim
Certain shit i can't express
And i will never mention
My money grow in 4 accounts
Nigga fuck hoes
18 years of extortion
I don't trust hoes
She only mean it in the moment
That shit not the truth
You can't control how she feel
Who the fuck are you
A couple niggas talked shit tryna twitter beef
But when they saw me i guess that shit was never beef
Andrew told me on Facebook to pull up
And when i got to his block he was like hold up

I been out here tryna make it thru these dark times
These niggas don't give you respect if you aint all grind
But then you still got these haters on the sidelines
Kill yo brother don't give a Fuck
Because he not mine
