[Verse 1]
Gangster in my veins
Run it like the rent due
Whole squad heavy
Every eye against you
Blood on my hands
Still I never rinse through
Jaw locked tight
Like a pit in a clinch move
Cold nights, chain swing
Breath like a smoke trail
Mama on the phone
Saying, "Boy, that road fails"
Devil in my ear
Selling me a wholesale
Heart on freeze
I could watch a soul pale
[Chorus]
I got gangster in my veins, it don't empty
Whole block on my back, it get heavy (yeah)
Evil in my head, it be tempting
Stone cold heart, don't feel, just envy
Tatted up skin, every line, every memory
Teardrop ink, every crime, every felony
Jaw lock tight like a pit in a deadlock
Broken hands swinging on the edge of a headshot
[Verse 2]
Black bandana
Cover up the face lines
Dice on the crate
Pray I never snake mine
Court date circled
Still I let the days fly
Hope on E
All I got is hate high
Park by the store
Windows like a black hole
Shorty send a text
Say I never act whole
I just send "soon"
Knowing that I'm that cold
If I die young
Bury me in black gold
[Chorus]
I got gangster in my veins, it don't empty
Whole block on my back, it get heavy (heavy)
Evil in my head, it be tempting
Stone cold heart, don't feel, just envy
Tatted up skin, every line, every memory
Teardrop ink, every crime, every felony
Jaw lock tight like a pit in a deadlock
Broken hands swinging on the edge of a headshot
[Bridge]
Look in the mirror
All I see is red smoke (red smoke)
Pray for a way out
Still I keep my hand close
If I see tomorrow
Will I ever let go?
Or ride with this rage
Like it's all that I know
[Chorus]
I got gangster in my veins, it don't empty
Whole block on my back, it get heavy
Evil in my head, it be tempting
Stone cold heart, don't feel, just envy
Tatted up skin, every line, every memory
Teardrop ink, every crime, every felony
Jaw lock tight like a pit in a deadlock
Broken hands swinging on the edge of a headshot
