Strandz Take Your Time
[Intro]
I don't mind
Take your time
Live your life
You're free
Yo
[Verse 1]
I'm under influence, but they can never influence me
Damn, we did a lot of crime in our innocence
Feel like I'm runnin' out of time when I feel and shit
I got this trauma on my mind when we chill and shit
Be all, "How I wish that they would listen too"
Busy at the cells, we ain't get no job interviews
It's crazy, I seen a couple niggas with a mill' or two
Huh, yeah, I could've backstabbed and been a winner too, but that ain't me
We was sellin' grubba off a Blackberry
And when that fеll apart, it's robberies and battery
Thеy see the black in me, they're tryna le tit slap at me
And, they say the, "Good die young," I say, "It's fallacy"
Either die or survive in this canopy
Sell some cannabis, invest in a wap, or three
I guess the poor die young, we can all agree
'Cause these teeth are pricey but you get slapped for free
And how a white man preach Black History?
It got me tryna find where the difference be
Between the system tryin' to imprison me
Just like my ancestors, so how we claim to be free?
And we don't spit the same, nigga, how you claim to be me?
They knew I'd make it out 'cause of the way that I speak
She knows I'm paranoid 'cause of the way that I sleep
And everybody knows my value, I ain't never been cheap
[Chorus]
I don't mind—
That you ain't got it yet, but, Louis, I don't like the way you—
Live your life
I'll always be there for you, you ain't gotta worry, so, just—
Take your time
You're free
[Verse 2]
I came up on Nina, I came up on mover
As a schooler hearin' 'bout movies
Meetin' a shooter and seein' the future
Then it got too dark, re'ing up on a new light
Money got too tight, you know how to shoot, right?
I been in a few fights and spared a few lives 'cause I don't do pride
But, my niggas do ride
So if you violate, better think twice
Two guys, .38, make it spin twice
And that's a upper-body bullet if the wind right
It ain't cool, that shit got my nigga doin' life
So if you wanna hustle, boy, you better do it right
I can't grind with him 'cause the high all the time
And we was really gettin' busy on the border, she like—
[Chorus]
I don't mind—
That you ain't got it yet, but, Louis, I don't like the way you—
Live your life
I'll always be there for you, you ain't gotta worry, so, just—
Take your time
You're free
[Outro]
I don't mind
Take your time
Live your life
You're free
