3 Went In

- A gangster rap persona characterized by a deep, guttural growl that strikes with the force of stone hitting steel, - Verses are raw, intimidating, and enriched with unusual “shill” noises — including raspy hisses, throat clicks, and distorted vocal fry — intricately woven into the rhythm as additional percussive elements, - Hooks transform into in

**(Verse 1)**
Me, Jay, D-Way, three deep in the ride,
Late night, black hoodies, heat on the side,
Heard dude had bread, thought the lick was sweet,
Quick in, quick out, back on the street.

Hit the front door hard, everybody rushed in,
Then a car hit the curb—man, that's when shit flipped.
Blue boys hopped out, whole block went loud,
Jay caught one first, folded right down.

D-Way hit the back, tryna make that gate,
Couple more shots—then everything went blank.
I woke up leaking with the laws in my face,
Now I'm staring at a wall with two names I can't erase.

**(Chorus)**
Three went in, only one still breathin',
Jay gone, D-Way gone, I'm still here for a reason.
Now the door lock clang every night in this cell,
Whole thing went bad and I remember it well.
Three went in, only one came back,
One dumb lick put my whole life on its back.

**(Verse 2)**
County blues on, posted up on the bunk,
Dudes playin' dominoes, somebody rollin' a blunt—
Least in my head, 'cause it still smell like the block,
Till them keys hit the gate and bring me back to the box.

I see Jay sometimes when I'm half asleep,
Same white tee, same J's on his feet.
D-Way yellin', “Go!” from the back of that crib,
Then I wake up mad 'cause I'm the one that lived.

Mama came through, wouldn't look in my eyes,
Said, “Boy, all that street shit done cost you your life.”
I ain't say nothin'. What I'm supposed to say?
Two homies in the dirt and I got years on the way.

**(Bridge)**
Still hear tires when the whole tier quiet,
Still see that muzzle flash soon as I shut my eyelids.
Everybody tough till the real shit start,
Then you find out quick who got fear in they heart.

We thought we was soldiers.
Man, we was kids.
Couple little pistols and some dumb-ass plans.
That's all it is.

**(Outro)**
So pour some out for Jay, pour some out for D,
Two young fools that thought the block was everything.
I ain't askin' nobody to feel bad for me,
I picked that road—now the road got me.

Three went in.
Two stayed gone.
And every damn morning,
I wake up alone.
