Eli Manna – Arizona Lyrics
Artist: Eli Manna
Song: Arizona
2007 walking home from the drop off
Hood knew not to touch me momma quick to blow ya top off, but
We ain’t neva had it sh#t was tuff (mhm)
Once upon a time the hood was love (mhm)
Jess and her boys was protected on the Northside
Know some goons’ll make you cha cha but we don’t slide
Where I’m from you’ll end up on a T-Shirt for a bike ride
4 5
n#gg#s at yo door could play for Roll Tide
Cul-de-sac got some stories we won’t ever tell
Stare out the window driving home blasting Maxwell
Seems like a dream
Mommas dresser had some pretty things
Little Gun
Incase a ugly n#gg# wanted pretty wings
As the years pasted I analyzed the situation
Why all these people on my block face common limitations
Saw silhouettes drawn in chalk by hands that mastered patience
The number 12 became quickly hated by the nation
Puff Pass Puff Pass we can’t ever choke
Get Cash, Quick Dash now who want the smoke
12 coming, haul #ss they won’t let us go
Trigga Finger, too fast now we on a note
But all that sh#t was cool
Used to get bullied in school
Now I’m the f#cking BooBoo
I was not the one to fool
Money was tight I just figured that’s the way it goes
Remember begging ma for her to buy us Dominos but
We ain’t neva had it sh#t was tuff (mhm)
Once upon a time the hood was love (mhm)
We ain’t have no car we took that bus (mhm)
Blessings falling down but nun for us (mhm)
Jess and her boys was protected on the Northside
Know some goons’ll make you cha cha but we don’t slide
Where I’m from you’ll end up on a T-Shirt for a bike ride
4 5
n#gg#s at yo door could play for Roll Tide
Crackhead on the corner try and put it on ya
Called every female sweety, no f#cking Arizona
99 cent
Enough to pay that n#gg# rent
He shared the place with demons
He was screaming through the vent
Let me out!
Let me go!
I’m sorry lord I’m
Losing hope!
Just take me home!
Years later I can hear him
So tragic all the hood could do was fear him
What a place, what a waste
What a world who gone keep us safe because
He was just a man in the wrong space
Do that make me special cuz I made it out
Like n#gg# you put on a show gone head and take a bow
Reflective surface I see chains and welfare on my crown
I see mommas crying outside with bonnets and gowns
Gangs in the cul-de-sac spraying rounds
My brothers heads on the ground
Momma said Justin take your brothers to the bathroom
Close your eyes and pray that all them n#gg#s will just stop soon
Tears in my eyes I heard them bullets tear my windows loose
Momma in the front them bullets screaming duck duck goose
f#ck Dat
Ran out to my momma
She said Justin get the f#ck back
Fo’ you get your #ss clapped, baby boy cuz
We ain’t never had it this sh#t tuff (mhm)
Only thing that keeps me here is love (mhm)
I would give my life boy if I must (mhm)
God ain’t never did nothing for us (mhm)
