Lyrics
*Talking In The Background*
Talking In The Background
Uh
Expressing a sense of uncertainty or contemplation
The streets of my city be gritty
Describing the harsh and tough nature of the city streets
Young niggaz pack plenty, and ain't never show no pity
Highlighting the prevalence of violence among young individuals without remorse
Many die on streets of concrete, blasted from the heat
Referring to deaths on the streets caused by gunfire, emphasizing the brutality
From under the seat, niggaz just tryin' to make ends meat
Describing the desperate measures people take to survive and make money
Trying to eat, day to day livin' with no religion
Portraying a life without a moral or religious foundation
Luxury cars, and this money got my full attention
Expressing a strong focus on materialistic pursuits, particularly wealth and luxury cars
School teachers and the preachers don't know what to teach us
Criticizing the inadequacy of traditional authorities to guide or educate
They don't get a second look without them ghetto features
Noting that physical appearance often determines societal value
Created so the non pigmentated rated
Commenting on racial categorization and stereotyping
Pornographic caught they children learn the words and say it
Addressing the impact of explicit content on children
Save the monsters, but don't nobody know the lord
Calling for attention to spiritual matters amid societal chaos
Status depends on the baddest shit you can afford
Linking social status to material possessions
And look at me I'm in the middle of the confusion
Expressing personal confusion in the midst of societal issues
Crime in my blood and I need a transfusion
Acknowledging a criminal influence in the speaker's background
Take it how you want to take it
Asserting a blunt and straightforward attitude
I gotta twist and break it
Expressing the need to confront and reshape one's reality
Make it shine to distinguish from the ones who fake it
Highlighting the importance of authenticity and genuine success
and if it comes out raw, and uncontrollable
Emphasizing the unpredictable nature of life and success
Money's foldable, fuck a hip-hop quoteable
Rejecting the importance of being quoted in hip-hop culture
Nobody felt what I was feeling when I wrote this shit
Expressing a lack of understanding or connection with others regarding personal emotions
Broke this shit, but that ain't new so I can cope with this
Acknowledging challenges and difficulties but accepting them
Hope it get better for those who don't get a chance
Expressing hope for improvement for those who face adversity
To advance, and dig the shit I be saying
Encouraging listeners to understand and appreciate the speaker's message
You know what might make what I say a little clearer
Suggesting self-reflection as a means of clarity
If mothafuckers judge the one they see in the mirror
Encouraging individuals to judge themselves rather than others
*Talking till the End*
Talking till the End
