From a brick to a stone, does a have a soul? (Oh, Oh) As a kid need a goal, the made of gold (Oh, Oh, Oh)
Getting Thinkin' I'm so that I can rap cause I can't move no dope But I do know, a few niggas did and a few niggas that still And a few that's through, are the few niggas that's dead
So fuck a 9 to 5, they clockin' and to survive Cop a and supply cause nobody offerin' jobs Bricks build, buildings build, houses build Better ripped than turned into a baller or a shirt to say it hurts, I was optimistic Tryna see my gang and whippin' made me wish I was flippin' This went out of his dollar pension Cause after 4 or 5 you don't have nothing but tickets
But them niggas tryna hold my head and work out (tryna work this out) Countin' numbers up in my head tryna build this (tryna build this house) Mama told me if I made my bed I gotta lay down But I never to keep these words all up out my mouth
Bricks bricks it's all them talkin' bout Bricks bricks it's all niggas talkin' bout Bricks bricks all them niggas thinkin' bout Little niggas on the scene, gotta dream it now
Studio blowed Thinkin' I'm so glad that I can rap cause I can't move no But I do know, a few niggas that did and a few that still And a few niggas that's through, are the few that's dead

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