lirik lagu do better – von poe vii
introduction:
say that one more time, grandma
“it’s not important what other people think of you. it’s what you think of you, chad. and you came from the best, the best” – grandma poe
[verse one]
ayo them angels in the outfield
keep a distance
it was never seen in my hood
brenda was poppin babies
like every weekend
shorty’s barely fifteen
on the block with the pick up
f-ck the bacon and the swine
they’ll shoot it out for the stick up
ptown k!llas
the type to emanc-p-te their incarceration
they’re going straight to jail
when eighteen hits
and their pleading the fifth
it’s kind of funny in the long run, right?
you sell that poison but be mad at a snitch
now what’s the point of this?
got love for your hood
but not for your people
oh, you solid as stone?
well homie you’re see through
see i’ve been there
and i’ve done that
you niggas brag about what?
peddles in the dust
and when you die, ain’t worth a buck
my nigga
[chorus]
they want to see us do better
they want to see us doing better
locked inside the brain
could never take away the pain (2x)
we just pebbles in your window
bullets through your temple
i am not your equal, nigga
i am not your equal
you are not my equal
i am not your equal, nigga
“i’m experienced now, professional. jaws been broke, been knocked down a couple of times, i’m bad! been chopping trees. i done did something new for this fight. i done wrestled with an alligator. that’s right. i have wrestled with an alligator. i done tussled with a whale. i done handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail.” – muhammad ali
[verse two]
i was just that token with a destiny
never had a child though
that was probably for my peoples
i just want you to be proud of me
did i do my best?
do you respect my efforts?
am i appreciated?
is this love forever, dawg?
cause i’ve been living up in a box
so many homies have disappointed
i threw a lock up on the lock
and now they’re wanting to reconnect with me
my focus is papa j. in all honesty
we ain’t really been a group
since back in the day
[chorus]
they want to see us do better
they want to see us doing better
locked inside the brain
could never take away the pain (3x)
we just pebbles in your window
bullets through your temple
i am not your equal, nigga
i am not your equal
you are not my equal
i am not your equal, nigga
