Bongx - Lockdown : Diary of a Hustler Lyrics
Official




I don't make these records to break records
I turn broken hearts to modern art
Just tryna play my part
Coz I knew from the start
My upbringing similar to the rise of a star
Sun rise beaming light through the dark
No surprise my power can cause shock
To people that who never knew what they got
In themselves and it shows
In all they different goals
And different thinking
I'm headed to the top to get my millions
Meanwhile there's a kid on the top of a building
Ready to jump off
That's why I call my friends
Even when the hour odd
On some you right my Doug?
If you not, just remember you a God
And we are we all got!
The present has a lot of gifts missing
Its why I hate reminiscing
Hope you lay your life for a better reason
Saturday's leave wet faces in every season
Coz history repeats It's self
Like I'm watching legion
But we can't go back in time
Can't hold back the crying
Correctional services Always lead you back to crime
Coz Even if you change, who go'n hire you
Corporate don't believe in systems
They give money to
So what you gonna do
When you out of food
And your back against the wall coz your rent due
Don't be so quick to judge, until you walked others shoes
Coz where I'm from my people Really ain't got much to choose
They ain't got that much to lose
[Skit]
I always tried to be the change I wanna see
Shit I used to sell drugs I was just tryna live
In my hood the kingpins busy running the streets
In my hood the kingpins the only ones that give
So who you think inspires the Kasi kids
When it seems like the ones doing wrong are the ones that win
I'm just following footsteps but the stumbling humbling
The Money I was fumbling
Now I stack or double it soon as it come in
Gotta thank Curtis for courtesy
Get Rich or Die trying
Got me chasing paper with urgency
Legal or not
The game rigged at the plot
I ain't go'n pretend like it's not
The fairer skin find it easier to get at the top
Huh I'm opening up like I'm opening shop
My chest prolly the last place that you'd find my heart
It belongs to the kids in my hood, it shows up in my art
I sacrificed myself for you, I'm just playing my part
[Skit]
