[Intro] Yeah From enemies To ‘’nemee friends Listen [Verse 1] I was raised on that side talk House shoes, chalk lines, live stock Whole block played tug of war with the same rock Same po po, different mugshots, same lock Me and Shorty used to hoop at the schoolyard Till the crew card turned him to a pool shark Eight deep, red flags on the handlebars We went blue steel, black masks in a stolen car He took my lovin,, I took his cousin Cycle spinning like rims, we just kept gunnin' Mama praying with a Bible and a busted fan We just learned how to fight ‘fore we learned to plan [Chorus] From enemies to nemee friends We bleed then we make amends We lose, then we rise again Same block, we just changed the end From enemies to nemee friends War drums turned to shoulder bends Old scars, new rules we bend Same block, we just changed the end [Verse 2] Caught him slippin’ by the corner with the dice out I had the drop, lil homie pulled the pipe out Heart thump, both hands on the timeline One move, both crews in a flatline We locked eyes, saw his brother in the rear view Saw my cousin in the concrete near you He said, “You ain’t built like that, you just hurt” I said, “You ain’t either, you just thirst to shoot first” Then the sirens made the whole street freeze Little kids on the porch yellin’, “Please!” I dropped mine, he slid his in the trash can We backed up, middle fingers to the system like mad men [Chorus] From enemies to nemee friends We bleed then we make mad amends We might lose, then we rise once again Same block, we just gonna change the end From enemies to nemee friends War drums turned to shoulder bends Old scars, new rules we bend Same block, we just changed the end [Chorus] From enemies to nemee friends We bleed then we make mad amends We ain’t gotta lose, then we rise up again Same block, we just changed the hip hop end From enemies to nemee friends War drums turned to shoulder bends Old scars, new rules we bend Same block, we just changed the end
