Posing.
Packed inside
loosely hanging flags.
Strapped with eight bandannas,
but have you ever been strapped?
Do you know what it is
to NEED a pistol
to sleep
on a bare mattress?

Do you get what they're up against?

Do you really relate,
or are you a fake?
Are you in things to win things,
or in shit to finish it?

You should know, homeboy,
that you ain't HIS homeboy
cuz your home is for boys,
and he lives with the men,
and they'd all have you stripped
and runnin' when they run that new whip.

So conceal that sweet grin
if you find the real grillers,
gorillas, and killers,
rock slingers, and dogs.
Go walk a real street
then pop your lip
and wear your hat low
cuz you seen too much shit.

Come back and show me
how real men walk hard
cuz they're afraid if they don't
someone'll pull their card.
