Lyrics
When I was a kid
I never really thought about the consequences of my actions
It was basically go go go mo' mo' mo'
Yea Aye

In positions that I thought I'd never be
As a juvenile I caught felonies
Kept a Scrooge face like I was Eberneezer
With a gun tucked for my enemies
Niggaz talk death and I'd let her squeeze
With a gang of niggaz that'll set 'em free
Keep playin' with me and I'mma let 'em see
Have you curled up like letter G
We was wrong though we was wrong though
God was patient with us we was pronto 
We was gambling like the lotto
Where the odds ain't too hot bro
Inadvertently pleasing diablo
Knowing that we Pentecostal
Seeking that peace was weak in the streets
Admired when you being hostile
Niggaz be thinking that it's a real joke
Feel you got time when you really don't
Wasting your grind on beefing and smoke
Dimming your shine like dust on your gold
We was trippin' and grippin' the wheel that we stole
Evading the law them niggaz some hoes
Them niggaz some hoes
Jumping out pointing they gun at our nose
Knowing if we was some white little kids
They'd be gentle as Downy
Wouldn't reach for they poles
But Black in America that's how it goes
We young and we reckless the streets getting cold 
Too many die and they story ain't told

Lil' niggaz
Lil' niggaz we gang bang
Lil' niggaz we squad up
Lil' niggaz we maintain
Lil' niggaz
Lil' niggaz we here too
Lil' niggaz gotta get by
Lil' niggaz with a pistol
Lil' niggaz 
Lil' niggaz don't trade pain 
Lil' niggaz you'll grow up
Lil' niggaz do great things
Lil' niggaz 
Lil' niggaz I see you
Lil' niggaz I'm with ya
Lil' niggaz I be you

In positions that I thought I'd never be
As a juvenile smoked hella trees
Kept a blunt rolled like celery
With a light tucked in my heavy jeans
Niggaz skipped school to rap melodies
With a gang of niggaz that peddle beats
Keep playin' with me and I'mma let 'em see
Drop a diss track like Pusha T
We was wrong though we was wrong though
God was patient with us we was pronto 
We was gambling like the lotto
Where the odds ain't too hot bro
Inadvertently pleasing diablo
Knowing that we Pentecostal
Seeking that peace was weak in the streets
Admired when you being hostile

Lil' niggaz
Lil' niggaz we gang bang
Lil' niggaz we squad up
Lil' niggaz we maintain
Lil' niggaz
Lil' niggaz we here too
Lil' niggaz gotta get by
Lil' niggaz with a pistol
Lil' niggaz 
Lil' niggaz don't trade pain 
Lil' niggaz you'll grow up
Lil' niggaz do great things
Lil' niggaz 
Lil' niggaz I see you
Lil' niggaz I'm with ya
Lil' niggaz I be you

Seeking that peace was weak in the streets
Admired when you being hostile
Black in America that's how it goes
We young and we reckless the streets getting cold 
Too many die and they story ain't told
