Dem Gates Lyrics

Koba-19, Clef Majorz on the beat

Why they hate to see you live, then show love when you die

I lost faith as a kid, now I cope by getting high

Mother work hard to put food on the plate

At night praying to God, wiping tears from her face

Them memories I can't erase, I really seen a homicide

Surrounded by them apes, koba kong, gon' survive

Give word to the fates, take koba soul with pride

My city full of snakes, gotta make it out alive

Cause love fake, they vacate when the cash left

Koba going ape, in case I take my last step

Still blowing cake, I anticipate a fast death

Till I meet fate, I'ma hustle to my last breath

Till the day I meet fate, I'ma always chase cash

My city full of hate, so the good don't last

The love really fake, then they treat you like trash

Had no food on the plate, so I ate with a mask

See the pain in my face, I'm trying to heal from my past

Memories I can't erase, from the steel when it blast

Dreaming of a better place, so I hustle for that cash

I pray I make it to them gates

I'm still trying to heal, I numb pain with a perc

You better shoot to kill, or get covered up in dirt

Feel the pain I feel, why my dog on a shirt

Finna pop another pill, cause all that pain really hurt

I remember being dead broke, stomach touching my back

Seen my mom on dope, and my auntie on crack

That's why I been lost hope, I'm in the cut with a mac

Hit a lick for some coke, but I blew the whole pack

They threw dirt on my name, but I'm sharp as a sword

I was just trying to maintain, but the plug lost the cord

they hit him with that flame, bullets flying on one accord

That's unmeasured pain

Till the day I meet fate, I'ma always chase cash

My city full of hate, so the good don't last

The love really fake, then they treat you like trash

Had no food on the plate, so I ate with a mask

See the pain in my face, I'm trying to heal from my past

Memories I can't erase, from the steel when it blast

Dreaming of a better place, so I hustle for that cash

I pray I make it to them gates
