The Parables

[00:11.313] Gotta ride with 'em, ride with 'em
[00:13.802] Ride with 'em, roll with the, woah, woah, woah
[00:16.729] Tell 'em, "Ride with 'em," we could ride with 'em
[00:19.030] Ride with 'em, woah, we could, woah, woah, woah
[00:22.163] I tell the odd, gotcha, odd, getcha, woo, what
[00:24.874] Check it out, n!gga, woah, woah, woah, woah
[00:27.707] N!gga, we could fight with 'em, ride
[00:29.673] Yeah, uh, yeah
[00:31.635] Done seen some sh!t within my lifetime, my light shine bright
[00:34.530] Protect your energy from poison when the python strike
[00:37.339] My first mistake was doin' robberies on Niken bikes
[00:39.788] Watch my moves and I'ma show you what a icon like
[00:42.731] Y'all let bygones be bygones, right?
[00:44.872] N!gga, f!ck your truce, bust your move
[00:47.264] And if that n!gga touch your shoes
[00:48.807] You better blast on 'em and on my momma, n!gga
[00:51.147] I'ma get that cash on 'em, hunnid on the dash on 'em
[00:53.599] Swerve, born from the trench, you from the 'burbs
[00:56.259] N!gga, f!ck that early bird, n!gga
[00:57.925] I'ma get this motherf!ckin' chicken
[01:00.030] And if a n!gga ever got a problem, n!gga
[01:01.870] We can f!ckin' solve it, on my mama, n!gga
[01:04.230] I just been itchin' to prove myself
[01:06.474] I just pray throughout the struggle I don't lose myself
[01:09.158] Glock, no safety, Plaxico, I might shoot myself
[01:11.747] They catchin' bullets like two Odells, and, n!gga, you gon' tell
[01:15.043] But listen
[01:15.596] I can tell you 'bout the time was goin' hard up in the paint
[01:18.289] And I can tell you sh!t the other n!ggas can't, lemme tell you
[01:21.030] I can tell you by the time I had the drop a n!gga rank
[01:23.593] And I can tell the sh!t I did up off the drank, lemme tell you
[01:26.376] I can tell you 'bout the time I signed a deal for twenty bands
[01:28.984] And used that sh!t to get my brother out the can, lemme tell you
[01:31.727] I can tell you 'bout the time I had a penny and a plan
[01:34.670] I can tell you sh!t, but you won't understand, lemme tell you, n!gga
[01:37.364] First and foremost, for every door that's opened, a door close
[01:40.266] Beat a n!gga, take his Bordeauxs, upgrade my wardrobe
[01:42.943] And Lord knows livin' like this, it leads a short road
[01:45.456] A dead end, or prison time, where we was headin'
[01:48.515] Instead, when I got bread, broke it with bredren
[01:51.372] Eyes open, leave the house, move like a veteran
[01:53.872] Made a couple dollars from come ups, my n!ggas flexin'
[01:56.643] N!gga got a problem, then I can make some corrections
[01:59.148] Okay, cool, still with the same n!ggas since grade school
[02:02.120] Give a f!ck about your shade room when I had made room
[02:04.680] For everybody on that late moon, and word to Rae Sremm'
[02:07.590] Had to bring the motherf!ckin' swang on 'em
[02:09.988] I ain't even wanna have to blink on 'em
[02:12.688] That Lam' truck got a full tank on 'em
[02:15.517] But, a n!gga better not look at me wrong
[02:17.957] It's certain sh!t that I can say on this song, but let me tell you, n!gga
[02:20.919] I can tell you 'bout the time was goin' hard up in the paint
[02:23.961] And I can tell you sh!t the other n!ggas can't, lemme tell you
[02:26.538] I can tell you by the time I had the drop a n!gga rank
[02:29.115] And I can tell the sh!t I did up off the drank, lemme tell you
[02:31.680] I can tell you 'bout the time I signed a deal for twenty bands
[02:34.543] And used that sh!t to get my brother out the can, lemme tell you
