Life And Times Of​.​.​. Lyrics by McKinley Dixon

Who Taught You To Hate Yourself?

2016

[Verse 1: Micah James]
The true and living, in this bloodied up NutriSystem
Tryna stay level like the new coupe suspension
I tried to bite forbidden fruit but the fruit was missing from the garden
Basedgod Micah James Harden
Thinkin, I was cursed to this corner of the earth
Where the only way I can talk to y’all is through a verse
I put that on my life, just like my lil’ brother had to put on prison stripes but now that nigga’s alright
Well, actually I ain’t talk to his ass in a while
Expressing this shit just like isn’t my style
So I’ll check in when I check in
I’m more concеrned with how to enter chеck in the mailbox from the mics I’ve been checking, okay
Don’t believe everything you’ve been told
Niggas handing out hugs just to give you a cold
Sensitive people will hurt you
Promise you cash in exchange for virtue
Whip yo’ ass and then desert you
Steal a niggas innocence, you see the fingerprints?
When he was down he was around but I ain’t seen him since
So now I’m all about me like nothing more exist
Could’ve had the triple-double I just needed more assists, whatev’
Disgusted with life, my role in it
And trite as it may sound I think my future is bright
Or maybe that’s just because the real future is white
I dunno I can’t call it, I’m up but I’m still falling, y’know?
[Verse 2: McKinley Dixon]
With that tat on his arm he’d probably give up his hand
For that tat on his hand he’d probably kill a man
If the situation was permitted, his homies were with it, and the tattoo on his leg suggested it
Infected with the thug process of a caged dog
Released to intimidate then tied up in the yard
Chain collar digging deep up in his skin
He was bred to kill but only wants to protect his kin
But it’s hard when Whole Foods don’t take stamps no more
Baby in the other room stomach still sore
Yours is too so what would you do when someone came and said there’s a crew for people like you, who knew?
Sweet talked him into their street sweeper
Unaware their intentions lied a little deeper
Drying out [?] made by the block keeper
Be forced to deal with the hood’s grim reaper, yah
[Outro]
Just let it ride out
Just let it— just let it ride out
Just let it—
Just let it ride out
Just let it— just let it ride out
Should I throw a hook on this?
Yeah, I got you
That’s just how we do, running ‘round with this crew
Never thought it’d affect you
But now that it has, we still gotta see this through
That’s just how we do, running ‘round with this crew
Never thought it’d affect you
But now that it has, we still gotta see this through
See this through
See this through
Yeah
