"Pick Up An Instrument" lyrics
All them gang signs that he throwin' up, brodie could probably master the guitar
Pick up an instrument, my nigga, go change your life, you'll probably go far (Get out them streets)
Mama ain't trippin' on you, she just know where that street shit lead
It's all around you, I know, but you gotta have the mindset (That one day, you gon' leave, huh)
Don't get stuck, we all live in spirit, why you think they keep checkin' in with the physical?
Took me months, studied that shit, had to pull back quick, start takin' shit literal
It's a journey, I swear I'm feedin' my soul, but I been doin' that in general
Only thing that's different now is I know my purpose to reach my pinnacle
We get lost in the gravitational pull, I know it's because of the block
Better pull that deck, better pull them cards, them daily routines is awesome
I been flickin' these strings and playin' these chords, I never been scared to blossom
So when you get bored, nigga, fuck that phone, you'll never know if you don't start it, mm
You already know how to use your hands, better use that shit on a fretboard
Uneducated nigga standin' next to me tryna tell me what he want respect for
I don't really fit in this timeline, why is my spirit here in the flesh for?
Niggas be actin' like knowledge is lame until you teach them about chess board
It seem like the OGs didn't really leave us much 'cause the culture got put up for sale
They gave us the blueprint to walk in the labels and how to walk out of jail
In the streets is when you losin' all of your weight and I'm not talkin' walkin' on scales
When you get in that mode, resist traditional codes and rebel
All them gang signs that he throwin' up, brodie could probably master the guitar
Pick up an instrument, my nigga, go change your life, you'll probably go far (Get out them streets)
Mama ain't trippin' on you, she just know where that street shit lead
It's all around you, I know, but you gotta have the mindset (That one day, you gon' leave, huh)
Pick up an instrument, my nigga, go change your life, you'll probably go far (Get out them streets)
Mama ain't trippin' on you, she just know where that street shit lead
It's all around you, I know, but you gotta have the mindset (That one day, you gon' leave, huh)
Don't get stuck, we all live in spirit, why you think they keep checkin' in with the physical?
