Morning Radio

Some days I want to hustle just to see if I could

My life aint half bad but it aint all good

 

My twin brothas got knocked by some fools in the hood

A real conspiracy how the went to bad from good

Never offenders before this trail and graduated HU

But guys were jealous of them cause they dressed real smooth

Got all the girls something about the appeal of being twins

Didn't have much except a mom who really loved them

Car from granny older than the day they were born

they sought to flip a profit paint it up and tint it

Through some D's on that…and it would be finished

Nobody else saw it quite that way

These boys were good at everything

Now they locked away

Aint no way to get em' out once the jury says guilty

And yet the real villain still making streets filthy

 

Still I want to hustle just to see if I could

My life aint half bad but it aint all good
