[Intro]
(Oh my God, what is this? An L beat?)
Look

[Verse]
Once upon a time around the South Side, a young black man grew up in a house (Yeah)
Had a pops he never knew, with a mom that's strung out (Damn)
His granny careless just about, say he'll never make it out (Say he'll never make it out)
Of the hood and had a handful of aunties that could vouch (What?)
Young n***a named Malcolm, all his homies called him Malc' (All his homies called him Malc')
His big brother off in college, Malcolm took another route
From gang bangin', 'caine slangin', moms threw him out the house
Stuck on probation, on and off, since thirteen, been in and out
Soon as he turned seventeen, shit got super wild (This shit got super wild)
Still a juvenile, he just totin' Rugers now
He shootin' now, streets got him, Malcolm ruthless now (Malcolm ruthless now)
Mom still gettin' higher than a motherfucker (Higher than a motherfucker)
Malcolm used to cry at night, shit a motherfucker (Shit a motherfucker)
Ask hisself why every time he lie at night (Shit fucked up)
Sometimes he even pray to God and wish he die at night (Wish he die at night)
He grown now, had to get it on his own and (Had to get it on his own and)
He know nobody gon' be there when he alone and (When he alone and)
So, fuck it, he just gon' continue doin' wrong then (Continue doin' wrong then)
One day he woke up, left the house and he forgot it (What?)
But somethin' inside told him, "Malc', don't leave the ratchet" (Malc', don't leave the ratchet)
But he ain't worried, he been lettin' n***as have it (Fuck them n***as)
All his life he been bangin', stealin', robbin', killin'
Livin' heartless, foolish, godless (Huh?)
Stop to get some swishers from the supermarket
Usually leave the car in neutral, but he parked it
Looked in his rearview, two n***as, black Charger (What the fuck?)
Black hoodies, black masks, black carbons
He know it's over, try to duck, they started sparkin' (Boom, boom)
Shells poppin' everywhere, Malc', get out of there (Boom, boom, boom, boom, skrrt)
He goin' crazy 'cause he knew it, Malc' gon' fire (Malc' gon' fire)
Car hit up, windows out, but that was minor (That was minor)
Perfect settin', it just wasn't Malcolm time yet (It's wasn't his time yet)
Rush in the house, yell out to moms, "Where my iron at?" (Where my iron at?)
And now he gettin' high and don't know where his mind at (Don't know where his mind at)
N***as was masked up, he don't know where to find 'em (Fuck)
Was gettin' out and he ain't know who was behind him (He ain't know who was behind him)
But when he catch a n***a slippin', gon' remind 'em (N***a)
Two weeks later, Malc' right back in that action (Right back in that action)
Whip fixed, new tints, painted, slidin' (He out here)
Malc' ridin', late night, 'round three somethin' (Skrrt)
A youngin focused, he just lookin' and he peeped somethin' (Ayy)
Charger parked, car on, he see the heat runnin' (He see the heat runnin')
Bitch hop in the passenger, he tryna freak somethin' (Oh yeah?)
Malcolm ready, his adrenaline just keep rushin'
But he ain't buggin', he don't want homie to see him comin' (He don't want homie to see him comin')
He gon' wait 'cause when he run up, he ain't leavin' nothin' (He ain't leavin' nothin')
Fuck around and hit the bitch up, he ain't even bluffin' (N***a)
Look what Malcolm got now, yeah, this his lucky day (Yeah, this his lucky day)
He on a mission, watch the Charger pull off right away (Oh yeah)
Sweet as fuck, n***a pull right up to where he stay (What?)
Ain't even watchin', Malcolm trail a n***a all the way (Damn)
He super geeked, been tryna catch some action all the day (Catch some action all the day)
Charger pullin' in, parkin' in the driveway (Mhm)
Malcolm parked some houses down, he finna violate
But somethin' tell him, "Malc', you might as well go all the way" (Huh?)
"You came this far, before you spark him, might as well rob him" (Might as well rob him)
Walked him right into the safe, it was a piece of cake
Gave him three hundred K and Malcolm blew his face away (Boom, boom, boom)
Ain't give a fuck, that n***a up, he gave the bitch a break (Fuck that bitch)
But feds watch the whole thing while they investigate
They had surveillance on a n***a's house since yesterday (Damn)
Malc' runnin' out the back door with the cheese (Yoom)
Ks pointed in his face, "Don't move, freeze"
His mind racin', "Run, throw the gun, shoot, squeeze" (Skrrt)
But Malcolm came right to his senses, got down on his knees (Damn, fuck)
The saddest thing about life, it keep revolvin'
Same story, different n***a, same apartments (Same apartments)
Same gutter, same group of people starvin'
Malcolm could've stayed in school and got a job though (What?)
But this was all that Malcolm knew, he from Chicago (He from Chicago)
Compare and contrast if Malc' was from a rich town (Uh-huh)
His whole life was planned out since he was six pounds (Uh-huh)
Let me break it to a core so you can focus more (Focus more)
At the age he started puberty, he was smokin' weed (Smokin' weed, roll up)
His eighth grade graduation, he was totin' heat (Huh?)
His freshman year of high school, he was posted (What you need?)
Before he saw his senior year, his life was over (His was life was over), over (Over)
It's over (It's over)
It's over, over (Huh?)
