Let It Go
Urban Struggles: Navigating Life's Turmoil
Lyrics
Sometimes you gotta let it go
Sometimes, it's necessary to release or relinquish something.
Certain situations you're facin' will make your head explode
Specific challenging circumstances can be so overwhelming that they might cause extreme frustration or mental distress.
Being in this game ain't no joke
Participating in this lifestyle or industry is serious and not easy.
Plenty brothas on the street straight get smoked
Many individuals in the streets are killed.
People wearin them folks
People are wearing or carrying firearms.
Its straight up bump to the grind
The situation is challenging and requires persistent effort.
We drop and it seem like it ain't gon stop
The challenges keep coming without an apparent end.
Growin up around gang bangers, feinds that'll make you scream,
Growing up involved with gang members and drug addicts who cause fear and distress.
Is on the scene, us that make ya cane
The group or individuals involved in illegal activities that distribute drugs.
It was fun at first, now I pass
Initially, engaging in the lifestyle was enjoyable, but now it's avoided.
I was trippin with the game, but the game dun got to bad
Initially enjoying the lifestyle, but now it has become extremely negative or dangerous.
Them boys lockin us up left and right
Law enforcement is arresting people frequently.
I'm down with the cause, uphold the law
Supporting the cause of law and order.
It begins at birth, from which I draw
One's foundation or principles derive from birth.
And everybody want to be the man with the quick hand
Everyone desires to be the skilled or influential person.
But the big man un-organized
But the influential or higher authority is disorganized.
Up in them thangs, blowin our brains
Involved in dangerous situations where lives are at risk.
Close your eyes picture how you might die
Imagining or contemplating the possibility of one's own death.
Sippin up the dro, livin in the g-e-double-t-o
Consuming drugs and living in a tough neighborhood.
Comin outside sometimes I'm strapped
Sometimes carrying a weapon when going outside due to potential threats.
Knowin that somebody might try to pull my brains and my life
Awareness of the possibility of someone attempting to harm physically or fatally.
Want to take me out
Someone wanting to cause harm or kill.
It's the life we live for, we kill for
Living a life where killing or being killed is a reality.
When you get pushed to the edge of the ledge
When pushed to the limit of danger or desperation.
And fusion all I hear is music
Amidst chaos or crisis, all that's perceivable is music.
