-Margucci, San Francisco
Grew up in the trenches
All that shhh had shaped my mind
Sayin’ momma I’m a listen
Just ‘cause I’m locked up doin’ time
Knowin’ I ain’t gone listen
I said that shhh the last three times
What if shhh was different?
Picture livin’ like you white
Imagine you got privilege
And two parents that can guide
Livin’ in the burbs
Ain’t gotta watch nobody die
And now you can see college
‘Cause you ain’t gotta slide
‘Cause when you in the trenches
If you ain’t on ten then you gone die
I’m sorry it’s not different
And what if shhh don’t matter?
Keep yo’ cards on yo’ chest
Be prudent and when approaching matter
Do everything with precision
Be patient you gone climb the ladder
If you change the way you move
That what if shhh don’t matter.
