State Property used to make that real emotional hood shyt :mjcry:

[DMGAINGREEN]

Pops wasn't around one of the reasons why I'm hustlin now
One of the reasons why I'm strugglin now
Wit' three one your own, workin' the night shift and leavin' us home
It's cool mom, I just couldn't finish school mom
Cause' of rappin' cause' of that you 'bout to move mom
Boy make moves mom, soon mom, trying to get us away
From them nosey neighbors and the boys in blue mom
But I remember them times, no food in the crib
Nobody taking timeout schoolin' the kids
In school with the kids they got they Timb's on
Buttered up, it wasn't right
I'm up in there my slim's on button up, it's alright
But they ain't never clown me, they see pain up in me
I had a little Sugar Shane up in me


If I could do it again, I would do it different
Less time spent in prison, more time in religion
Less time talkin' more time listenin'
Learnin', observin' went to school fukked around and been a surgeon
But the hands of time do not go back
And all my nikkaz in the dirt in the box they will not come back

These rhymes be hitting home hard like a motherfukka shyt really resonates with my life growing up .. now Im getting ready for school in a somber state off the strength

It's Not Rights my favorite State Property joint.
another joint worth a mention for Oschino's verse...



We gotta, hollow the gat, bottle the smack
When the cops pull up we gotta swallow the crack
All my nikkas did time like Geronimo Pratt
See the Benz like damn, what model is that
Oschino, the nikka who was locked in a cage
nikkas clockin my style like Flavor Flav
fukk gettin the Source Award, or gettin Five Mics
I'm happy just gettin my daughter a pink bike
A roof over her head and some Barbie skates
It's plenty of nights man, I hardly ate
I'm from where the summers dangerous, the winters is cold
And bytches pop Xanax's like birth control
I got nikkas on death row, stuck with a cell number
So close to Jesus they got his cell number
The ghetto is trife, this is my life
How many rappers you know been down for murder twice ?

let my guy get his daughter her pink bike

then Neef comes in with that drug talk.

What it look like ?
Throw it in the pot, see if the shyt cook right
We can get it down, see if it bubble white or brown
Take it to the town and break my youngin's down
It's doin good, business is lookin fine
Get em for 20, maybe 29
Youngin out on his grind, youngin poppin nine's
I'm a juvenile delinquent, youngin was doin time

next Chris got a line i always liked too.

"You ever heard a nikka's lawyer scared to talk for him ?"

 

[Big Jo]

If I could do it again, I would do it different
Less time spent in prison, more time in religion
Less time talkin' more time listenin'

Those are some of my favorite "grown man" lyrics ever. Really makes you think.

As soon as I saw the thread title, I thought of its not right...I have nothing to add to this thread.

them nikkas were really "out there"even when the roc was poppin...

I never really checked their music like that..gotta catch up

 

[AMcV'88]

i wonder if anybody on here went to the Dipset/State Property show in Chicago last week ?

them nikkas were really "out there"even when the roc was poppin...

I never really checked their music like that..gotta catch up

i wish the documentary of them recording the first album was still on youtube.

Dame took them all down to Miami to record because Bleek's family member, i think his brother was in accident so Dame wanted to keep the family side of it up and show support so they were all down there recording the album.

they spoke about how Neef was just awkward and anti-social, didn't want to be there, hardly recorded and insinuated he would have rather been on the block than doing it.

..was a good little watch.
need to see if its out there somewhere...i assume it was ChokeNoJoke that had the footage.

Met you on a ski trip
Just wanted to skeet quick
I think we was dancing to uhhh Fiesta Remix
You had ya ice and ya Louie Vuitton bucket on
But I was anxious to see you with nothing on
Ya skin was smoother than The Isley Brothers
I had rubbers, plus my pockets was filled with the Franklin Brothers
We had sex once, we had sex twice
Before I knew it we was smuttin every night
