Twenty One Lyrics by Kofi

K2*

2020

[Intro]
Man the streets so cold, yeah-ah

[Chorus]
I swear to God these streets, they ain't got love for anyone
My momma praying for my life 'cause I'm her only son
I hold my breath in just in case I ain't got another one
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21
I swear to God I thought I told you that this ain't for fun
Don't be playing with your life, they'll take your only one
And for my safety I got niggas totin' load guns
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21

[Verse 1]
These might not be my hardest lines (No)
I ain't even in my prime
F**kers got my little bro so I got murder on my mind
I done gave too much of my heart to these people that ain't got slime
I got niggas in the trap and I got niggas doin' time
I was walking home from school and I got stuck up with the .9
And they ran off with my phone 'cause I ain't even have a dime
These niggas like to hate on me but shit, at least I'm trying
I was down bad, in the trenches looking for a sign (Yeah)

[Chorus]
I swear to God these streets, they ain't got love for anyone
My momma praying for my life 'cause I'm her only son
I hold my breath in just in case I ain't got another one
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21
I swear to God I thought I told you that this ain't for fun
Don't be playing with your life, they'll take your only one
And for my safety I got niggas totin' load guns
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21

[Verse 2]
You ain't never seen no bullets in no dash of a rented car
You're lucky you ain't hit but you gotta take it back tomorrow
I was hustlin' through the night, just tryna make it back to mom
Solid with my niggas, peace and loyalty will take you far
I can't even sleep now, all I hear is grrt-bow
Streets is getting f**ked up, oh they shootin' kids now?
Yeah I got some niggas moving packs to pay they rent now
Pour out for my bros in penitentiaries, still 10 down
No, I don't wanna do this shit no more but I got to
Grew up with some demons, probably smoking their patu
Drivin' past the jakes, a lucky day if they don't stop you
They gone try to book another nigga if it's not you

[Chorus]
I swear to God these streets, they ain't got love for anyone
My momma praying for my life 'cause I'm her only son
I hold my breath in just in case I ain't got another one
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21
I swear to God I thought I told you that this ain't for fun
Don't be playing with your life, they'll take your only one
And for my safety I got niggas totin' load guns
'Cause these days the streets saying I'm lucky I reached 21
