Explaining How It Is Lyrics[Intro: LG Malique]
Look, hmm
[Verse 1: LG Malique]
You put my family in the mix, it's guaranteed somethin' gettin' dropped
Final warnin', please don't try me 'cause you know this all I got
And I don't like promotin' violence, but I'm prepared for any block
Your environment could turn you into somebody you're not
Uh, stay tunnel-visioned and be focused
A deal with the opps, sometimes it get the best of me, make it harder for me to swap
Way we was packin' these niggas, had 'em reachin' out to Allah
Had 'em prayin' this shit stop
[Chorus: LG Malique]
I'm just explainin' how it is when it get too deep
Everybody 'round me got skill, I won't lose no sleep
You cross the line, let's be for real, you made the choice, don't retreat
The way we live and fail to change, it's like our life on repeat
[Verse 2: LG Malique]
I could bring you in my life, but I can't go in yours
Yeah, I'm rich, but losin' my life is somethin' I can't afford
My mama really raised three girls and four little boys
I'm hurtin', so please don't mind the crackin' in my vocal chords
Three of 'em gone, one locked up and the other's missin'
What's goin' on? I left the block, this time, it's different
No, I ain't scared or paranoid, I just pay attention
'Cause the day I don't might be the day I'm finally lifted
And I can't let it happen, I won't feed into distractions
Understandin' that everything don't deserve a reaction
This exactly what they expect 'cause it's they satisfaction
Don't come around if it ain't genuine, fuck all the actin'
[Chorus: LG Malique]
I'm just explainin' how it is when it get too deep
Everybody 'round me got skill, I won't lose no sleep
You cross the line, let's be for real, you made the choice, don't retreat
The way we live and fail to change, it's like our life on repeat
[Verse 3: Yungeen Ace]
Still movin' through the streets like I ain't never made it (Like I ain't never made it)
Seem like I'm spittin' in God face the way I'm bein' ungrateful (I ain't bein' ungrateful)
I know it's hard to believe this time, but baby, I'm bein' faithful (Baby, I'm bein' faithful)
God know my story, the rest, don't let an opp nigga take me (Let an opp nigga take me)
They been slingin', wastin' time and I'm losin' patience (And I'm losin' patience)
Been tryna manifest my dreams like I'm hallucinatin' (Face my dreams)
They was bein' fake, I was bein' loyal, that's miscommunication (Miscommunication)
Loyalty so deep, you leave right now, I'll still be waitin' (I'll still be waitin')
For all these niggas that done died, won't bring Quan back (Won't do it)
Kso in a cell, I want him home, can't get his time back (Can't get his time back)
Life or death, take a warrant in my head, tryna get my mind back (Bitch, take a warrant)
Meet me on my death bed if you find it
[Chorus: LG Malique]
I'm just explainin' how it is when it get too deep
Everybody 'round me got skill, I won't lose no sleep
You cross the line, let's be for real, you made the choice, don't retreat
The way we live and fail to change, it's like our life on repeat
I'm just explainin' how it is when it get too deep
Everybody 'round me got skill, I won't lose no sleep
You cross the line, let's be for real, you made the choice, don't retreat
The way we live and fail to change, it's like our life on repeat
