Pusherman (Shoot out to Curtis)


Im yo daddy

Im yo mammy

Im yo granny

On these streets

 

Im that doctor

Im that leader

On that fighter

On these streets

 

Im that nigga

Im that wigga

Im that lingering feel

from yo streets

 

Im that speaker

Im that seeker

I'm that sleeker

Version of yourself

On yo streets

 

Im that virgin

Im that vegan

Im that beacon

That illuminates

Yo streets

 

Im you

Im yo girl

Im that boy

Standing in the middle

Of yo streets

 

Im that papa

Im that  mama

Im that grandma

Languishing on these streets

 

Im yo healer

Im yo manager

Im yo soldier

Fading away on these streets

 

Im yo blackie

Im yo whitie

Im yo refreshing feel

That your doing good on these streets
