The Verdict Songtext
von Selldretti

Your honor
Made it please the court
My name is Selldretti
And if you don′t mind me doing this
I would like to say a few words to the defendant
Thank you


Life is hard
You can't take me down cuz I′m in charge
Even if you try to lock me up behind them bars
It's a real soldier livin' right beneath the scars
I pray to God I live long enough to see the stars
It′s real
Have a hard time keepin′ still
I walk around lookin' hard like I keep the steel
I try to live my life well but I lose the will
The fact that my momma gone make it hard to feel
I got God on my side and I understand
I wanna′ break but I know I gotta' be a man
About to marry my love I gotta′ make a plan
And when she feel let down I gotta' take a stand
No audibles
Skin color marginal
Do you really know when the devil really hauntin′ you
People that you call friends back stab dishonor you
Then the next day they want you to give an arm or two
Everywhere you go you got the hammer and the armor too
Fearin' for ya' life, you don′t know where you haulin′ to
It can be ya' homie or the red and blue brawlin′ you
Way the world goin' how lies different from the truth
And now they got you real stuck in a obstacle
You don′t even remember everything you got into
Kill or be killed and the former ain't optional
Got 3 chances but you lost when you got to 2
It′s real funny how the same dude that followed you
Is no tryna' use ya' loyalty to swallow you
You got to stick n move same thing Apollo do
And be aware of where you at so you don′t fall in too
And if you had a second chance you would keep intact
Cuz it ain′t even worth ya' energy and that′s a fact
And now you gotta' do a bid cuz you sellin′ packs
Ya' fam back home know that you ain′t comin' back
The world turnin' for the worst when that karma hitchu
You shoulda′ walked the other way instead you grabbed a pistol
Layin′ on ya' back dwellin′ all up in ya' mental
About how you left ya′ son and daughter back to miss you
That's the burnin′ issue
You really tried to change
But the world ain't tryna' turned the other page
It′s almost like we still wit′ the whips and chains
Manipulatin' wit′ our minds like we ain't a slave
That′s why we keep a firm handle on the 40 gauge
Cuz anybody tryna' violate will feel the pain
We really don′t want the drama but they throw it on us
And at this rate we'll never see it ova
I'm still young and I got the heavy weighted shoulders
I really don′t have a choice but to be a soldier
My mom passed away
Granddad passed away
Honestly it′s really not more that I have to say
But deep down I'm worth more than that
And deep down I know you wanna′ do more than smack
Let's put our heads together we can make some happen
Worry bout our own color while we keep on stackin′
Like lets put the guns down less we really have to
If somebody tryna' level up then act cool
They ain′t even on the same mindset that guide you
They start applyin' force then we do what we have to
Educate the younger age
Show 'em to the purely gates
I know it′s gonna′ be hard but it's the only way
We gotta′ teach the next gen to be the trend setters
And when it's all said and done they′ll do better
Support the independent
Cuz that's the real mission
And stop giving them ya′ money they'll pay attention
We got the greatest force
So what they hittin' for
We goin′ global wit′ it
They hate it to the core
It's more to life than just mac 10′s and weed bags
It's more to history than standing up for the flag
Ladies and gentlemen
Jury and the court
On behalf of what′s real this is what we going for
And that's the final verdict

I hope you took what I said into consideration man
Take care of yourself out there
We all we got
