Blown Away Songtext
von Akon feat. Styles P

Cheh
Crazy
It′s one of those things man you gotta experience to know what I'm talkin′ about
It's where the goin' get rough (Akon)
The tough stay tough (Styles P) haha
Up front
Let′s go
Konvict, Konvict
We in too deep to turn back now D
Sure is
Watch yourself
Before you get (blown away)


You know where I come from
The place where your fate is a mic or a bull or a dum-dum
A jail cell a pine box and brothers is dumb young (young boys)
Still bustin′ guns for the slum that they come from
Cops is the only ones they gon' run from (that′s it)
They puttin' they hood up
But nine out of ten of us ain′t got good luck
You gon' ride on a man and catch 25
Or get hit and get sent to the other side
You lose both sides of the coin
So me I play the hood baby not in the groin
Mama got a little church I could join, but I ain′t go yet
Man got a mosque I could join but I ain't go yet
Cool with the devil on my back, I'm in cold sweats
′Bout to do some dirt
In some dirty black old sweats
If you known you shoulda shown the way
Most of the hood ′bout to get blown away

'Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts′ll never last long here
If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you′ll get blown away
'Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryna hold on to a couple more years
Tryin′ not to get blown away


See I ain't never shot nobody
But I'm known for fightin′
So when I strike man you′ll think you been struck by lightning
Shouldn't have to prove myself by killin′ a nigga
Even a child could take a life by pulling the trigga
Retaliation only takes anger mixed with passion
So you target in the distance and keep on blastin'
They say guns don′t kill people, people do
So when you're hit man you feel that shit the evils do
Can′t see myself get beat down my eyes swollen
Mom's cryin' they don′t know what happened my pride′s stolen
If I ain't got my heat, then I got a blade that hit ya off me

′Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
If you ain′t man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you'll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryna hold on to a couple more years
Tryin′ not to get blown away

Keep my eye out for jakes
Ears to the streets
Other eye out for snakes
And these scandalous freaks
If we ain't on good terms
Don't bother to speak
Don′t smile and try to spark a convo with me
Same thing′ll make ya laugh, will make ya cry
Fuck around and leave this quiet nigga, he'll take ya life
Hate for it to be the world′s sacrifice
If somebody else could travel, through the tunnel of life
Cause I'm that type of guy I′ll be there when you're ridin′
But I'll stay to myself
So if you see me out there with a bear we fightin', nigga then go help the bear

′Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts′ll never last long here
If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you′ll get blown away
' Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryna hold on to a couple more years
Tryin′ not to get blown away
