Faded ft. Gordo Luchini Lyrics

My mama told me, hey lil' listen son, know what I told ya

Better hear me now, I ain't gon' be here when you older

Keep your head on straight, stay away from niggas who ain't focused

You ain't like these niggas, you my son and plus you chosen

Ain't got time to chill, gotta get my bread straight

You can't hang around if you not workin', ain't no dead weight

Feel like life be testin' me, I gotta keep my head straight

Worst case, I be fightin' for my life or fightin' a fed case

Maneuver through the trenches with precision

Stayin' in my lane, I ain't insured, got a full collision

Gotta show my son how to be a king and what's the difference

From those who stand on principle and those who be reneged on

Still healin' from some shit that hurt to speak about

Peace of mind be hard to find, but still I seek it out

I don't like lettin' people in, I'd rather keep em out

These people vicious, dawg, you really gotta peep em out

Peep em out and watch how people speak outside your presence

And nigga, never leave your house without your weapon

I love my bro and all my soul, bout them I'm steppin

Cause in my heart, I swear that you my greatest blessing

I know I be faded but I be focused

I stay 10 toes down like a soldier

So my young niggas watch over they shoulder

Cause this world gettin' colder and colder

I know I be faded, but I be focused

I stay 10 toes down like a soldier

So my young niggas watch over they shoulder

Cause this world gettin' colder and colder

I know I be faded, I know I be faded

I'm twisted up, I'm anti-lock and super-braided

I know I be faded, I know I be faded

Keep it focused, I can't have too many time waiting

I know I be faded, I know I be faded

No doubt the bitch, I walk around like I'm sedated

I know I be faded, I know I be faded

Mama hatin' and she tellin' me it's overrated

I'm never an angel, keep my angel on my shoulder

If it's up to me, I put you on that poster

Big bone nickel, we ain't never in a roaster

I know I be faded, but I keep focused

I cross my T's, I dot my I's

That boy look shaky, he ain't right

When he switch on you, don't be surprised

Don't wanna tell the wolves and see if he survive

If he survive, he ain't gon' survive

I had to realize niggas fallin

I had to realize niggas fallin' and they fade

I had to realize niggas just wanted what's on her plate

I had to open up my eyes, I had to close the gate

I had to rake up the whole yard, cause it was full of snakes

I had to burn a couple bridges, it was no mistake

I had to realize niggas fallin' and they fade

I had to get away from niggas, had to separate

I heard her liver full of liquor, hella heartbreak

I had to burn a couple bridges, it was no mistake

It's getting colder, colder, colder

It's getting so cold, colder, colder

It's getting so cold, it's getting stone cold

We got a 316, that poor rattlesnake

I know I be faded but I keep focused

I'm slippin' toe down like a soldier

I'm slippin' toe down like a soldier
