This song is about my opinion on the street life & how it's far reaching effects can hurt those influenced by it. The other part is about the one who got away from the street life & uses it as motivation, which is me. This is Nostalgic Boulevard off of my upcoming album, Came From the Bottom. Enjoy!
Lyrics:
Im on nostalgic boulevard/
Wantin the brothas that ride & the homocides to be gone/
Murder & money seem like a good combination/
Until that combination breaks the hearts of those #s countin on you to make it/
(Nostalgic, feelin so nostalgic) 4x
What?
Shits real out here, hearts get broken/
Heads are left open/
While other heads are hopin/
That theyll stop putting band aids on bullet wounds & actually close them/
Yea it aint all good/
People die while rappers live off tellin lies/
Im not getting paid for this! I do it for the love! (Into verse)
I do it for the little girl who misses her fathers hug/
For that soul that wants to fight but the family pulls the plug/
Like that sometimes I feel powerless/
Why does it take a tragedy for many of us to acknowledge Him?/
So many of us refuse to take knowledge in/
While other races utilize their scholarships/
Wed rather gaze at magazines that are the octane to our sexual fantasies/
Fuck novels our men treat women like novelties/
Talk about a head rush but its not enough/
Shes got to swallow me/
Take in my sickest thoughts/
Im responsible for makin women take that shameful walk/
See I climbed a tree/
& at the top I was able to see/
A myriad of things that were hidden from me/
See its all good for those at the top of the totem pole/
But those at the bottom cant get a signal, so theyre ignored/
Or a number & taken/ 4 get them/
The little men & women are silenced/
Whether it be from a POWERful crush or a modification that quiets gun violence/
The streets a sesspool/
That leads wake planners to dive into thoughts on how theyll dress you/
So far from God we are/
Rather than pray/
Wed rather prey on a chick in our new car/
I got a riddle for ya/
What do you call a patriot arrested for treason?/
An American who good at public speaking/
Subliminals are everywhere/
Coke had head as an advertisement you see right there?/
No matter how long it takes Ill spit the love until you get it/
Rappers get rich & run to the suburbs/
But my wealth makes me learn/
To say fuck the suburbs/
So here I am still so here I am still/
Yea, the street needs me, the game needs me/
Im on nostalgic boulevard/
Wantin the brothas that ride & the homocides to be gone/
Murder & money seem like a good combination/
Until that combination breaks the hearts of those #s countin on you to make it/
(Nostalgic, feelin so nostalgic) 2x
