They Forced My Hand
Cormega

Yo, I seen it all, coke rise and kingdoms fall

Profits in sneaker boxes, riches hidden between the walls

The hood agony, I'm one of the few who ever understood Tragedy


Batteries not included in my music or holdin' up my spinal cord

Niggas be lyin' on wax, committin' vinyl fraud

Denyin' the fact they never slung or fired a Gat

Mega's tongue is ghetto, dun, hello


Where I'm from is the crime and graffiti and NYPD

Broken glass, .44's, open caskets

Shorty ballers pop shit when they rock hits the basket

The only life we know I flow so precisely, though


My chain got the icy glow

B-Mer Jeep shine with Lorenzos shine brightly, yo

Laugh now, cry later, one day I might be broke

And tellin' niggas I need coke, shit is real


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


Yo, visualize Mahdi as a shorty Fidel Castro

Snotty nose, nappy afro

Never realized in due time what I would have though, yo

Before I spit at a ho I used to bag up blow


Little bastard, rockin' Pumas under two-tones

As we roam from the streets to the group home, yo

Watchin' mob flicks, clappin' at imaginary targets

Adolescents up in Spofford, facin' hardship


Newborns grew up on Anita Baker songs

In the 'hood, wonderin' why the police hate us all

Up late nights waitin' for the next day to fall

We're up late nights waitin' for the next day to fall


My stomach hurtin', still searchin' for a way out

On an island where P.C. was a gay house

Made my first board, stabbin' niggas on the way out

I knew cats who got bagged they first day out, yo


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay


I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand, yeah


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


Yo, Trag, we been down for years

From rappin' in the 'hood to promisin' careers

It's all good, yo, the rap game is new to me

The crack game true to me


Accept the consequences and the blood money cruelty

Yo, remember you and me? Back in the days

You had a sheepskin, I had a goose and Pumas in gray

We even did the same dorm in C-74

More than boys we were fuckin' outlaws


If I could break you out the courtroom and clap through reporters

Kidnap the jurors and whack all their daughters

The Montanas, Al Po's and Rich Porters

Mandela time get smacked with two quarters


A life speed fuckin' with cracks and weed

Yo, I sniffed so much coke, I froze with nosebleeds

Jumpin' over snow cliffs without the skis

Then I saw shit was real and I switched my steez


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand


See the good Lord giveth and he taketh away

But niggas talk it and don't live it then they forced to pay

I'm just tryin' to be a man in this poison land

Forgive me, Father, they forced my hand
