Pieces of a (Black) Man AZ

[Hook]
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Stuck in time, so many young boys busting nines
Some serving state bids 'cause they hustle blind
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Stuck in time, so many young boys busting nines
Some serving state bids 'cause they hustle blind

[Verse 1: AZ]
Yo, when times get trifle, I'm subjected to street survival
See many never complete they cycle, other retreat to bibles
Livin' holy, but currency seem to control me
Movin' coldly, in the presence of old parolees
My mind mold me, keep me in mack mode like Goldie
Police know me, but ain't got enough to hold me
I follow rules, through the knowledge swallow jewels
A form of teachin' from the streets, never taught in school
You caught you lose, a wise man utilize tools
Solitude certifies all moves
So I walk the path of this old dread that lead me off the Ave
Absorbin' fast, learnin' from niggas I lost in the past
It's poison plays in these foul days
Housin' cops and their foul ways and walkin' through a wild maze
Holdin' my brain, tryna maintain
Sleet, hail, snow or rain, I guess the game'll never change
