1
When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigga
2
And make change, outta five dollar ass niggaz
3
I was a nerd in middle school
4
But by the tenth grade, I was playing in a game that had only four rules
5
Kill or be killed, try not to go to the pen
6
Never rat on nobody, and you can't even trust your best friend
7
Fifteen and five, were the numbers in the kitchen
8
And the day I sold my first ounce, wanted rich high school ain't seen me since then
9
A long way, from making the honor roll
10
Mo City Texas everybody had a weapon, you had to stay up on your toes
11
Drinking forty ounces of brew, and smoking fry
12
You ain't from around here, better get gone or be the next to die
13
Even though my hood ain't a ghetto, ain't nothing friendly here
14
The CPS thought they did me a favor, when they sent me here
15
It wasn't nothing but high class hookers, and murderers
16
And Houston hardhead, kickdo' burglar
17
A two room duplex, with eleven of us living in it
18
Thought we were players, so we kept some mo' of women in it
19
To see if we could run a train on em
20
Always buying new sheets, cause the old ones had too many stains on em
21
We use to jack, for Raiders and Kings starter jackets
22
Throw a broken spark plug through a car window, and then flag it
23
Snatching Rolexes and purses, coming up nonstop
24
Property from home invasions, ended up in pawn shops
25
Taking penitentiary chances, but having fun nigga
26
Back in the old school, as a young nigga
27
Huh yeah, as a young nigga
28
Back in the old school, as a young nigga
29
[Chorus - 2x]
30
When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigger
31
Sometimes, I sit and wish I was a kid again
32
When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigger
33
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
34
So now I'm living, in a two man hell
35
23 hour lockdown, in a two man cell
36
Stuck in the system and one day home, I hope I'll get to go
37
Meanwhile, they talking about shipping me off to Mexico
38
Ain't that a bitch, I can't speak no Spanish
39
But I guess I shoulda thought about that, when I was out there living manish
40
Too busy missing, what grandmother was telling me
41
I'll end up in prison, or somebody would end up smelling me
42
They say you reap what you sew, and that's the truth
43
I planted a rotten seed, and it brought forth forbidden fruit
44
Now I'm like Adam and Eve
45
They took a bite of what ain't right, that was enough for Eve and Adam to leave
46
I use to roll around the city, with my hand on my mack
47
Now it's a guard telling me, to put my hands behind my back
48
This can't be life I'm grown, I don't do rules
49
Knowing damn well if I was free, I woulda smoked you fool
50
But that's the same attitude, that got me here
51
Picked up for armed robbery, and then a blue bird dropped me here
52
If I was sober, I woulda been in my right mind
53
Ninety months already, but I'm looking at a lifetime
54
And all the homies I ran with, they passed on
55
Living like they were invincible, they didn't last long
56
And I ain't doing no better, than my friends
57
If I don't make parole, I'll never lay my hands on a woman again
58
I'm almost done nigga
59
If only I could back in time, I'd do it different as a young nigga
60
Huh yeah, as a young nigga
61
I'd do it different, as a young nigga
62
[Chorus - 2x]
63
In the beginning I was skinny, but now I'm on swoll
64
57 years old, still waiting on parole
65
Damn near ready to catch a case, I know I'm never gon' leave
66
The walls are closing in on me, and it's harder to breathe
67
I never been to visitation, since I been here
68
The players I kicked it with, did their time and left me in here
69
I'm old but taking my commissary, ya'll won't do to me
70
I'm good with them hands, but I'm not as young as I use to be
71
So I keep a lock in a sock, and a shank under my mattress
72
These youngsters trying to get me, for my coffee stamps and jack mack
73
My teenage years, I was pulling robberies
74
Now I'm up in age, and I can't stop these teenagers from robbing me
75
I guess the tables have turned
76
They triple teaming me but the CO ain't concerned, my lesson is learn
77
But uh, I ain't never been a coward
78
So the next time they got me, I got my shank and started downing em in the shower
79
I ain't the one nigga
80
But even still I was murdered in the prison system, at the hands of some young niggaz
81
We need to stop acting like dumb niggaz
82
So we can raise our daughters, and our sons nigga
