10 STEPS FORWARD AN NO STEPS BACK
IM ON MY WAY WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT

10 STEPS FORWARD AN NO STEPS BACK
IM ON MY WAY WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT
THIS IS THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
I KNOW YOU ALREADY BEEN WARNED

I LOST MY BEST FRIEND LAST YEAR
COPS ARE [bad word] MADE
OUT HERE HARD TIMIN STEADY GRINDIN
TO GET PAID

CAUGHT UP IN THE [bad word] 
SAME [bad word] ON DIFFERENT DAY 
HARD WORK ON DOUBLE 
OUT FOR MINE IN DIFFERENT WAY

SOME SEE IT AS TROUBLE 
I SEE IT AS BUBBLE
I GOT NOTHIN TO LOOSE 
FROM THE HEART OF [bad word] 

UP OUT THE CENTRAL COAST 
WHERE YOU DON’T REALLY KNOW
AN [bad word] RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES 
YOU COULD SEE YA HOMIE GET SMOKED

AN ALL I EVER SEEN WAS [bad word] DEALERS AN DOPE FIENDS 
IT’S SUCH SAD SCENE 
NO AMBITIONS AN NO DREAMS, NO MONEY LOW SELF ESTEAM
LIL YOUNGSTERS CATCHIN MULTIPLE FELONIES

IN THE STREETS NO LOVE
SCREAMIN [bad word] WHAT THEY TELLIN ME
HOMIE ALL I EVER HAD WAS 
DREAM AN MELODY 

BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH DRAMMA 
NOTHING REALLY FASE ME
AN BABY EVEN THOUGH 
THIS WORLD IS CRAZY

I BELIEVE THAT
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT NOW 
WATCH THE HOMIE 
BREAK IT DOWN

Sincere verse 2

STEADY ON RISE
AINT NO SURPRISE TO ME 
YEAH HOMIE RESPECT MY GRIND 
AND THE PRIDE IN ME

THROUGH LIFE OF HEARIN SCREAMS
IN THESE VIOLENT STREETS 
IM LOCKED AWAY WITH THESE BEATS
TRYIN TO FIND SOME PEACE

YOU COULD CALL IT MY VENTALATION
SPIT WITH NO HESITATION 
FOR EVERYBODY DOIN BAD
THROUGH OUT THE NATION

I CAME FROM THE BACK OF THE ROW
WENT FROM NEVER ROCKIN SHOWS
TO SPENDING 25 DAYS
ON THE ROAD

AN YOU KNOW IM WORKIN WITH SOME VETTS
STRAIGHT UP OUT THE WEST
GETTING BLOW
WITH MY HOMEBOY PEP

YEAH NOW EVERYBODY WATCHIN CLOSE
KNOWIN I GOT IT SEWN 
I KEEP IT REAL THOUGH 
ITS ON TILL ITS GONE

LIQUOR ON 
BLUNT GOT ME TWISTED 
NO LOVE IN THIS BUISNESS
GOTTA SEPARATE THE REAL
FROM THE [bad word] 
IMA GET IT IN 
FOREAL GRIND WITHIN INCHES
TO SITTIN NEXT TO EVERYTHING WE NEVER GOT
HOMIE DON’T YOU EVER STOP

Reapeat [bad word] 

Chris Rene verse

GIMME THE MIC N LIGHT IT UP 
LIKE FLAMES GOT FIRE INSIDE 
AN KNOW 
IT WONT BE TAMED

I MAKE MY MONEY 
I DO MY THING 
IM LIVIN MY LIFE 
LIKE HUMAN BEING

PEOPLE TALK ALL DAY 
WHILE THEY WALKIN AWAY
IM HEADED STRAIGHT TO THE TOP
AN THE TOPS WHERE ILL STAY

Repeat [bad word]
