Refrain: EarthGang]

Can′t call it, can't call it

I never came from deep pockets

Why can′t I make a deposit?

Can't call it, uh, can't call it

Yeah, can′t call it, I can′t call it

I never came from deep pockets

Why can't I make a deposit?

Can′t call it, yeah, I can't call it

Oh, I had so many days of crying

Oh, I had so many days of pain

Have you ever been as sad as I am?

Lord, I ask if anything would change?

I can see the future that we′re heading

I would say it's better not to tell

If it′s anything like this in Heaven

Maybe I'd be better off in hell

(Better off in hell)

Miseducated, unemployed

Get deployed in a week

Them snatch my body and my soul was exploited for free

Now occupations getting sold, shipped and sold overseas

Can't trust nobody like at all, to make sure I′m gone eat

All I see is distractions, distractions

My life just keep flashing and I′m flashing

Blue lights get behind you and your little blood pressure start to climate up

My niggas be speaking in spirit, schooling me on timing (heh)

I went to sleep thinking them caves with spiders on my eyelids

So, so so-...so what you know 'bout shining? (heh)

Lord I′ve been dancing for days, hell I'm still shaking off slave

Beneath and dipped in diamonds

She claim I be so zoned and I can′t leave her for one moment (heh)

Really I be so floated, carrier of these components

Of life and I still be trying to make sense of that jibber jabber

You right, I can tie this 'round my neck, floating up that corporate ladder (uh)

Whether the levels matter or realistic I′d rather be a misfit

We get it crackin', we sip, mechanic actions

But I can't call it

Oh, I had so many days of crying

Oh, I had so many days of pain

Have you ever been as sad as I am?

Lord, I ask if anything would change?

I can see the future that we′re heading

I would say it′s better not to tell

If it's anything like this in Heaven

Maybe I′d be better off in hell

(Better off in hell)

Heavy duty, Hell on Earth

We've been feeling Heavens duties

Even with these demons on us

Journey deep into atonement

Through the edges of my mind

I cannot give you my mind state

That shit like going on blind dates

I don′t know how that bitch look

I could've been took

I′m keeping divine fate

Follow the lines straight, and narrow

Never been one of my fine traits

I just been living the road, I don't got no home

I cannot define safe, 'rounding the bases I live in the times

Few of my niggas is running it with me

We′ve been surviving and keeping alive

Thankin′ you God, God's great

Give me a pond, now lakes upon us

Look at the water inside your eyes

You have been stuck in a blind state

Most of us out here just nickel and dime

Cook up a trip of the crime rate

But that′s by design and we never snooze

Now I'm so awake, come step in my shoes, nigga

Can′t call it, can't call it

I never came from deep pockets

Why can′t I make a deposit?

Can't call it, uh, can't call it

Yeah, can′t call it, I can′t call it

I never came from deep pockets

Why can't I make a deposit?

Can′t call it, yeah, I can't call it

I can see the future that we′re heading (can't call it, can′t call it

I would say it's better not to tell (I never came from deep pockets)

If it's anything like this in Heaven (why can′t I make a deposit?)

Maybe I′d be better off in hell (I can't call it, uh! I can′t call it)

(Better off in hell)

(Let me get that last... that last

Let me get that last... that last)

Can't call it, can′t call

Can't call it, can′t call

Can't call it, can't call

Uh, so far I done, uh, yeah, so far I done...

Okay, so far I done managed to take advantage

I set a goal and of course it ain′t take off like how I planned it

Granted I want the globe and the planet where my hands is

Granted, I′m on my toes and I'm sick of standing

Sick of the bicker back and forth

The lifted pitch inside your voice

Cause I can′t afford a picket fence and a Porsche

If I get in a pickle, I pull the pistol out my shorts

Payback on a pussy boy, so give me mines and give me yours

Give me time and let me finish to design the method

Enemy, the line, I stepped it

Point me in the wrong direction, digging in the mind connecting

Everything I ever seen, ever done, never was trying to set the gas to the fire

I prepped it

Walking in shit that I stepped in

Oh, I had so many days of crying

Oh, I had so many days of pain

Have you ever been as sad as I am?

Lord, I ask if anything would change?

I can see the future that we're heading

I would say it′s better not to tell

If it's anything like this in Heaven

Maybe I′d be better off in hell

(Better off in hell)

Activated (Activated, activated, aw man)

Native language, middle finger

How ironic? (How ironic, how ironic, aw man)

What it take to get it when you know you got it?

How you operating when you know your calling?

Glad he raised me cause I know my papa wasn't sober often

I ain't judging, woo, I get high

Now I′m the best to break out and lead 285

Sticking my chest out, putting my deuce up

Losing respect for the one′s you like

Back in Georgia we whip it slow

Get pulled over and you could die

Fuck the bullshit, fuck the cool shit

Grab the burner, let's use our rights

Let′s get rid of these fools tonight

What a decision, what a commitment, what are the limits when you decide

Pop the moon-roof, ain't your voodoo

Hit the crib, get danky coo coo

Certified I could lead the new school

Word to Tribe, whole team is Zulu

Oh, I had so many days of crying (can′t call it, can't call it)

Oh, I had so many days of pain (I never came from deep pockets)

Have you ever been as sad as I am? (why can′t I make a deposit?)

Lord, I ask if anything would change? (I can't call it, uh! I can't call it)

I can see the future that we′re heading

I would say it′s better not to tell

If it's anything like this in Heaven

Maybe I′d be better off in hell

(Better off in hell)
