Run It Back ft. Lu Jerz Lyrics

He was just a broken kid, barely had the hope to live

No food, mama out tricking, he got the open crib

Old shoes, house cold, lift his shirt, he showing ribs

No school, he wasn't cool, plus scared of the older kids

Bullied cause he ain't had nothin', make him wanna go grab something

Youngin' got too much drive, but still gon' hit that crash button

But he's still faced with reality

Making it out and it start to seem like a fallacy

Being stressed and depressed, that's normality

Born into it tragically, wishing it can go away magically

But his story way too real to be plagiarized

Pops played the block, got knocked with a 9 with 85

Yeah, he's still faced with lies

Dying inside, trying to stay alive

Seen so much shit in a stranger's eyes

And now his thoughts became more than suicidal

Lost his faith, dawg, he had to use the Bible

I wish I could run it back

One small decision leads to death or prison

Wishing I could run it back

Needed guidance and provision, wish I was willing to listen

Wish I could run it back

Was it even worth it? Clarity's what I'm yearning

Wish I could run it back

Wishing I could run it back

Over time he started doing crime, he got fixated

Whole block throwing up signs, he got initiated

Heart cold as ever with no plan for him to insulate it

Mind of a savage, now he gotta go and demonstrate it

Started making a little bag, but he wanted more bread

On go for the set, that red flag across his forehead

Appearance of a man, but inside

You know this kid lonely, same ones who bullied him now

Became his big homies, every mission that he went on

They said he slid lonely, can count on one hand

How much them niggas really did for him

Poppin' percs to put in work, mixed with the xannies

Ready to burn out, cause right here, this his family

Something he ain't never had, attitude forever mad

Probably cause he barely even met his dad

Wasn't there to steer, so in reality, he let him crash

Say something to him now, you stand on it, he won't let it pass

Shit really different now, youngin' don't listen now

And he trigger happy, he ain't gon' put that pistol down

Make you feel uneasier to everyone that sit around

Yea he became the most feared, and that was just in his town

Molded by the gang without the pottery

Ready to put in pain without the bribery

Him vs. self, always the rivalry

Until it's him vs. state for armed robbery

I wish I could run it back

One small decision leads to death or prison

Wishing I could run it back

Needed guidance and provision, wish I was willing to listen

Wish I could run it back

Was it even worth it? Clarity's what I'm yearning

Wish I could run it back

Wishing I could run it back
