verse 1
25 YEARS SINCE BIRTH
IN BROOKLYN-JEWISH
BREWIN SLOWLY
ALL OF US BROKE & THIRSTY
DEEP IN THE DESERT
IT'S NOT A MIRAGE
I MADE IT
NICCAS IS LOST AND GONE
AND COULDA BEEN FAMOUS
BUT U KNOW HOW IT GO
WHEN U RAISED
AMONG ROACHES
AND U TALK TO THE RATS
THAT'S HOW I
LEARNED TO RAP
A 22 WAS THE FIRST PIECE
THAT CURRUPTED MY MIND
IT WAS SO LITTLE
BUT LATA I MOVED
UP TO A NINE
FASCINATED WITH
THE POWER
AND THE TRUTH
THAT IT HELD
SO INTERESTIN
I STARTED
COLLECTIING SHELLS
MADE A CHAIN
OUT OF A HOLLOW TIP
STAYED WIT A HEATA
WALKING AROUND BIG WILLY
WIT THE BLADE IN THE SNEAKA
21 TIMES I PROBABLY
WENT TO COURT BEFORE 99
MAD CHARGES AND ISSUES
I REMINISCE THROUGH
BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH
CAN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT
HUSTLE MY WAY
INTO SURVIVAL
COMPLICATED BUT JUST TRY TO

chorus
UNDASTAND
MY TEAM IS DEEP LIKE A THESIS
UNDASTAND
THE TRI-STATE, THE BRICKS DON'T BRAKE
UNDASTAND
BUCKLE DOWN FROM WINTA 2 FALL
UNDASTAND
I HOPE I GIT 2 CONQUER IT ALL

verse 2
19 WAS THE AGE I
STARTED WAKIN UP
STARTED EARNIN MY NAME
STARTED LEARNIN THE GAME
STARTED HITTIN BACK NICCAS

LEARNED THAT IF U GOT
I NIC N 1 DIME U
MAKE IT A 20 EVERY TIME
17 CHICKS AT ONCE
A PLAYA JUST HAVIN FUN
WHAT WAS MY GOAL
PLAYEM TILL MY GAME GITS OLD
I WAS ONLY 16
BUT I WAS THOROUGH N GIFTED
HAD A NEGATIVE SIDE
AND THAT'S THE SIGN
OF MY SPIRIT
BLAZE THROUGH THE BLOCK
AND KILL IT
NAH BABY I'M GROWN
GOT TO MANY HOMES
KILL TO MANY STREETS
NAH COUSIN
I'M TOO MANY DEEP
I NEVA REST OR SLEEP
STAY ON MY P'S N Q'S
PAID MY DUES

chorus
UNDASTAND
MY TEAM IS DEEP LIKE A THESIS
UNDASTAND

UNDASTAND
BUCKLE DOWN FROM WINTA 2 FALL

WHEN YOUR TRYING TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN
THERE'S REASONS FOR YOUR ACTIONS
THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES
PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND

E-Freestyle
Feel the impact
like u witnessed a murder
u stand in shock
it's surreal, not forreal
u just realized
it's ova, finito
Forte's Mr. Reliable
stay comin' wit the lethal
it's not a decision
it's a knock out
it's not a mirage
it's a forcast
tec in ya mouth
the trigga
i sware I'll pull it
i don't see a need to hesitate
i am a street hustla baby
i rob, cheat, kill and rape
u choose your destruction
go ahead, pick ya fait
Forte's like a little kid
I can hardly wait
How do u want it?
the King or the God
Forte's a higher power
i can see in your heart
How about I
Pull your soul from your body
empty my full clips into the empty shell
and what's left i can't tell
Please your figures ain't ready
u can't afford to make mistakes
u ain't gittin money
u git cup cakes
You ain't real
everybody know yo a fake
your own momma probly told u
you can't hold your own weight
i give u streets to poetry
the real, the scripture
holla at me, "Brooklyn Nigga."
