Staring out My Window - Lil B, "The BasedGod"

The only way you can feel this pain

Is from the BasedGod, I appreciate that

Ya’ll hear that, from the bottom to the top

This all out my soul, Imma give you all the real, for real

I’ma take you back to the days I was growin up

Eyes lookin out that window

Metaphor in my house, I was all alone

Next time I’m in the cell, far away from the home

But similar, I’m staring out that window

Mary J. Blige «My Life» playing in the background

No income, but that was the projects

It was all mental, my life is a project

When you realize it’s hard to grip

I be mad walking around on some ill shit

I be one of the niggas that be like «Why me?»

I can’t help it, rage, I can’t speak

The only time I talk is when a nigga rap

They be like, dude, I be like, a nigga’s capped

For real, this ain’t just a rap

So much pain in my life, I got to take a nap

Sometimes I be staring out the window

My boombox on my bed, I done live through hell

But I ain’t scared

Sometimes I be staring out the window

Fred Durst poster on the wall

My boombox right by my bed, I done live through hell

But I ain’t scared

Trying to fit in, but I’m out the box

Downstairs around the block, on the clock

Look back, I’ve been betrayed by the coldest

I’m staying focused

In my own lane, my attitude so blang

Feelings out the way, sometimes I be ashamed

How I become wrapped up in my looks

Now I’m not the same and it’s hard to change

Don’t be so shallow, the life’s an ocean

I got to keep focused, I’m so complex

Got to kill fast, trying not to die first

Plans so diverse, protocol is so offensive

My mind don’t abuse it, I just keep it in the music

Sometimes I be staring out my window

My boombox right by my bed, I done live through hell

But I ain’t scared

Sometimes I be staring out my window

Fred Durst poster on the wall

My boombox right by my bed, I done live through hell

But I ain’t scared
