Risk It - Castro Escobar

100% pure orange juice from concentrate

Yeah

Uhh

I love my girl to death, but lately she’s been tripping on me

Claim that I never make time & shes feeling lonely

I’m feeling shitty, my guilty conscience is weighing on me

Looking back at the fact that she left everything for me

I’m at a point where I’m willing to risk it all

If you’re down to fuck with your boy and if not then don’t get involved

I’ve had plenty of people say they down for the cause

And their colors change like the leaves do in the fall

Yeah

And mama, I know you’re telling me to settle down

Start a family, buy some land, consider building me a house

But only if you’ve seen the visions I’ve seen

Believe the things I believe

You see that life ain’t for me

You say I’m just like my father and yeah at times I could be

But then you say all the time and that’s when I disagree (oh lord)

I used to hear that shit like every day

But I’m probably the best mistake my parents ever have made

I’m not tryna be the best, I’m tryna make a difference

But, i-i-it's what it is, man, and I-I feel like, I feel like

A lotta people are seeing my vision now, dude

Like, I feel like people are actually relatin'

Procrastination kills, that’s word to Curt Co'

Life’s the biggest bitch that always finds a way to hurt you

I’m starting to think that we all just living a lie

I keep tryna reach for my dreams but they’re all a little too high

I keep tryna meet with my goals but they’re all a little too shy

They keep tryna kill my faith but that’s something that just won’t die, right

I’ve had these contacts in for quite a minute now

And that’s why I can’t see my vision vivid now

Fuck what you talking, I’m never stoppin, it just won’t happen

Most of my childhood friends I seen is out here trappin

My homeboy told me

«They ain’t tryna see us win bro, they just tryna send us back the same way

that we came in bro

It ain’t meant for our kind to make it out of this

Punk ass police always find a way to try to manage shit

Against us, it ain’t shit but a mess

I guess it was a good thing you unexpectedly left»

Yeah

And that reminded me of harder times

I’m talking times I would preferably not cross my mind

I remember crossing that river in '95

Just a couple of days after Selena died

On a cool, dark night in early April

Just me and my mama runnin in hopes of makin some paper and dreams of a better

life

I swear we started from nothin, ain’t even thought of it twice

We had to have gotten somethin, yeah

And I still can’t seem to know the worth of this dream we have of being rich

before leavin this Earth

And we all tryna climb up the ladder

Money ain’t everything, it’s just the only thing that’ll matter

Yeah

Still figuring it out, what the world expects from me

I asked the game to be mine, she just kept on rejecting me

Fuck it, just live one day at a time right?

Yeah, just live one day at a time, yeah

(Instrumental break)

(Outro)

Before I sleep from time to time, get on my knees and pray

My own people hatin on me, that’s a fuckin shame

That’s a fuckin shame, yeah

Before I sleep from time to time, get on my knees and pray

My own people hatin on me, that’s a fuckin shame

That’s a fuckin shame, one time
