i'm underrated in your eyes
undersized but on the rise
inclined to quench your hunger like supersizin' your fries
it's time to speak the [bad word] we [bad word] out of time
the ties that you have with your friends is the prize
we need to recognize hellos and goodbyes
and if we realize before we die
we are wise
keep digging down deep inside
don't analyze the cries
just try to push ahead through the lows and the highs

in a world full of [bad word] [bad word] fully equipped
mic in my hand
blunt at my lip

kickin somethin never nothin see you bluffin always puffin rough and tough and stuffin my soul with the flow

the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river

now someone got beef
cuz you grew up in the east
you ain't claimin the west so he knocks out your teeth
just another beatin on the crime-infested streets
the strong get stronger while the weak are obsolete
so may you rest in peace
to the recently deceased
i know one day soon we will definitely meet
and when that [bad word] son
i'll be waitin and prayin
when the light goes off

in a world full of [bad word] [bad word] fully equipped
mic in my hand
blunt at my lip

kickin somethin never nothin see you bluffin always puffin rough and tough and stuffin my soul with the flow

the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river

about the river

in a world full of [bad word] [bad word] fully equipped
mic in my hand
blunt at my lip

kickin somethin never nothin see you bluffin always puffin rough and tough and stuffin my soul with the flow

the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river
the van down by the river
