[Verse 2]
Give me a cigarette, my nerves bad
The Feds said they heard that, I know where them birds at
And my old lady✦ say she saw me with anotha✦ brizzah
And some of them boys shot up my block, and now I gotta✦ kill 'em
And teachers keep tellin'✦ my momma✦ that I'm gettin'✦ worse
And now she trippin', talkin'✦ 'bout I need to be in church
And my lil' girl whole family✦ tryna✦ lie in court
Tryna✦ put me, a child, on child support
And my whole family✦ deny✦ me of what I do 'cause I'm a 'thug and stuff'
Plus, my niggas✦ keep fallin'✦ to them drugs and stuff
That dope got these niggas✦ meltin'✦ away✦
Man, they got clowns right around me, killin'✦ they self everyday
We keep fightin' but they so strong
I know it's hard but don't give up, baby,✦ hold on
Just keep ya fate, count blessings, and wodie, keep ya trust
And grab ya nuts and let 'em know that we don't give a fuck
We don't give a fuck
[Chorus]
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world
I lost my father✦ to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin'✦ wit' my niggas✦ tryna'✦ keep it real
And I'm still doin' for my mother✦ and I'm payin' bills
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world
I lost my father✦ to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin'✦ wit' my niggas✦ tryna'✦ keep it real
And I'm still doin' for my mother✦ and I'm payin' bills
[Verse 3]
I mean the world just ain't gon' never✦ change
So I just keep my head up and my nuts, let 'em hang
Dawg, I swear it's very✦ rough out here for the youngstas
Like everybody against me 'cause I'm a young thug
Dear Rabbit,✦ why they have to kill Rabbit?✦
But I'ma✦ keep you alive,✦ nigga,✦ I'm Lil Rabbit✦
That's why this lil' nigga✦ be buggin'✦ like it's no tomorrow
I only✦ can depend on Ms. Cita✦ and C-M-R
I try my best to make it through the night and live today✦
But I'm upset✦ so I'm steady✦ wipin'✦ tears away✦
And police✦ got me under✦ surveillance when and wherever
Wracking they brains, tryna✦ figure✦ where I'm gettin'✦ that cheddar
I tell my family✦ just leave me a-damn-lone
I can handle all'a✦ my business, this lil' man grown
But I try to forget✦ about✦ it and just stand strong
But if everythang was cool, I wouldn't write this damn song
Fuck the world
[Chorus]
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world
I lost my father✦ to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin'✦ wit' my niggas✦ tryna'✦ keep it real
And I'm still doin' for my mother✦ and I'm payin' bills
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world
I lost my father✦ to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin'✦ wit' my niggas✦ tryna'✦ keep it real
And I'm still doin' for my mother✦ and I'm payin' bills
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world
I lost my father✦ to a gun and made a little girl
And I'm still thuggin'✦ wit' my niggas✦ tryna'✦ keep it real
And I'm still doin' for my mother✦ and I'm payin' bills
Look, I don't curse, but in this verse, man, fuck the world

Verified Doubles & Entendres
"Tryna put me, a child, on child support"
① The literal financial obligation of court-ordered child support for his own daughter.② The irony of the speaker still being a minor/youth himself, highlighting the pressure of premature adult responsibilities.
"That dope got these niggas meltin' away"
① Physical deterioration and sickness caused by drug addiction.② The metaphorical loss of self and humanity as drug culture consumes the individuals around the narrator.
