Porch Lyrics by GRIP

Porch

2017

[Verse]
Uh, front porch
Empty beer bottle for a ash tray full of butts from Newport Shorts
Niggas shit talking back and forth
Lighting blunts, nigga, pass the torch (Pass the torch, nigga)
Product of paper plates and plastic forks as a first and a last resort
Scramblin' for cash on a crash course
Waitin' on them stamps, but don't nobody got no passports
Ambulance light the night up like its the 4th
And me and my homie just hit the sto' to get a fifth
Been tight since middle school, I think I met him in the sixth
Consider him my brethren by the time we copped a .7
His moms kept me straight on them days I barely ate, can you relate?
.9 up under my seat, Retro 10's on my feet
It's like a quarter 'til eleven
You hear them twelves when they beep?
It feel like Friday 13th
These lil' niggas runnin' in this bitch with masks, give 'em cash or they'll blast
We dipped out fast and hopped in the bucket and hauled ass
Think I saw like eighty-five on the dash (Fuck nigga move, yo!)
And even though it wasn't us causin' the friction
We two black males, so we fit the description
Tryna feed our addictions, and look where we landed
Potential suspects with two .11's, I hope we can manage
To make it back to the porch with minimal damage
I panicked and ran on the curb
Nothin' that can't be handled by a mechanic
I just ain't tryna' end up in front of a cops cannon
They'll kill our ass right where we standin' and empty handed
Dammit, police issue, blow a niggas chest away
The homie sayin', "I was just with him yesterday"
Got him pouring out the forty ounce (R.I.P my nigga, we miss you) (Damn)
I'll just be one of many more announce
Hashtag before my name when they showing support
Should've kept my black ass on the porch (Eh, uh)

[Refrain]
So you really wanna jump off of that porch and let live take its course?
The world is yours
Forced to be a man, you had to grow up quick
Now you seein' first hand life's a bitch (Life's a bitch)
Should've kept my black ass on the porch
Should've kept my black ass on the porch
Now, I'm forced to resort, nigga, life is short, shit
I should've kept my black ass on the porch, uh (Black ass on the porch)
So you really wanna jump off of that porch and let live take its course? (Take its course?)
The world is yours
Forced to be a man, you had to grow up quick
Now you seein' first hand life's a bitch (Life's a bitch)
Should've kept my black ass on the porch
Should've kept my black ass on the porch
Now, I'm forced to resort
Nigga, life is short, shit
I should've kept my black ass on the porch (Black ass on the porch)
