Danny Brown — Fields

[Verse 1] Money talk, only broke people listen Ain't got a pot to piss in, can't afford to pay attention These unfamiliar niggas be expectin' recognition Respect the intellect, let me continue on the mission I used to walk through alleys, paths with the field You know, that one house where Kenneth 'nem use to live Now it's just another shortcut to the store The TV in the window drew the line of what was rich and poor Mommy gave me food stamps and told me buy Wonder Bread On the way, these niggas jumped me, left me with knots in my head Went to school yesterday and had to leave early 'Cause niggas said they was gon' jump me at 3:30 All because I lived in the hood they had beef with And I ain't never tell 'em, dog, I kept that shit a secret I can't really trip, niggas looked out for me Them same niggas played me ain't around to tell the story I'm just a young nigga on the D.O.T With my headphones on and a sack full of weed Rhymes in my head, thought nobody wanted to hear 'em So I had the fiends hittin' rocks like the Pilgrims [Chorus] And where I lived It was house, field, field Field, field, house Abandoned house, field, field And where I lived It was house, field, field Field, field, house Abandoned house, field, field [Verse 2] That nigga much sicker That's why he pop pills, sip lean, smoke Swishers Yeah, I'm doing drugs thought I'd never ever try That had my eyes dry, dog, I wish I could cry I'm fuckin' bad foreign bitches while you in the hood Smokin' on some dirt weed, smellin' like some firewood Sittin' on porches of abandoned houses Or sitting in the field on bed-bug-ridden couches It's like they all forgot, man, nobody care about us That why we always end up in the prison 'stead of college Or livin' in the system, workin' kitchen for chump change Lost in the streets, niggas playin' that gun game Where nobody wins, just a bunch of mamas losing Dead body in the field, nobody heard the shooting We livin' in the streets where the options is limited Because it's burnt buildings instead of jobs and businesses [Chorus] And where I lived It was house, field, field Field, field, house Abandoned house, field, field And where I lived It was house, field, field Field, field, house Abandoned house, field, field
