From a brick to a stone, does a feign a soul? (Oh, Oh) As a kid need a goal, the powder's of gold (Oh, Oh, Oh)
Getting Thinkin' I'm so glad I can rap cause I can't move no dope But I do know, a few niggas that did and a few niggas that And a few niggas that's through, are the few niggas dead
So fuck a 9 to 5, they and tryna to survive Cop a and supply cause nobody offerin' jobs Bricks build, build, houses build neighborhoods Better ripped than turned a baller or a Davis shirt to say it hurts, I was optimistic Tryna see my gang and whippin' made me wish that I was This went out of his dollar pension Cause 4 or 5 you don't have nothing but college tickets
But them niggas tryna hold my head and work out (tryna work this out) Countin' numbers up in my tryna build this house (tryna build this house) Mama told me if I my bed then I gotta lay down But I seem to keep these words all up out my mouth
Bricks bricks it's all them talkin' bout Bricks it's all them niggas talkin' bout bricks it's all them niggas thinkin' bout Little niggas on the scene, gotta dream it now
Studio getting Thinkin' I'm so that I can rap cause I can't move no dope But I do know, a few niggas that did and a few niggas still And a few niggas that's through, are the few that's dead

If a brick is a brick from a brick you can From a brick to a stone, got a feign for a 2 into 4, turn reef to a home Turn the powder, into power, and the power to hoes If a brick is a brick, to a you can throw (It's one way out)
