This is a song about "Growing up in the streets in the gang life"

Goin crazy, i might be no sleep having light dreams

Hero in the streets, carnage in the sheets

Frequently hated, either that or misunderstood

But i get the gang violence that be in that hood

Got a little too much confidence and seem shook

These are al the symptoms of growing up in tha hood.

Too much percussion and bass when i take beats

But not the same kind thats back in the streets.

They gon keep on watching, give em something to see

Growing up in the industry where the evil chemistry

And all the nerds claim that they in the streets

Story of cudi, nigga getting out my dreams

Cause the streets leave you in pain

Grown men in this game
