1
Now I used to walk with the gun now I walk like a man
2
And I walk what I talk and I walk never ran
3
And I never say never but I mean hardly ever
4
And if shootin' is the solution then you're not that clever
5
If you don't know shit then you still know better
6
Human life is so precious it could never be measured
7
Have you ever had a load of it, cock back the heat
8
Poppin' on the next nigga while he walkin' up the street
9
Trigger off safety spacin' an opportunity
10
These niggaz want to waste me it ain't nothing new to me
11
Soon as he walked by I was ready to bust
12
But he just posted up like he was waitin' on the bus
13
Now I'm all pumped up with a steroid trigger
14
Cause most of y'all are easy just some paranoid niggaz
15
Used to walk with a gun but I never did use it
16
What's the point of holdin' heat if you ain't gon' shoot it
17
Stupid
18
It was a late night sunset me and him out
19
Lookin' at the ladies to come up on some trim
20
Everybody wildin' out cause the summer's about to end
21
He had the hypnotic he was missin with the hand
22
Of that mean green, laid back with the deep lean on low pro shit
23
That's how we rolled on the scene
24
Two girls lookin' probably in they late teens
25
But these days you can't tell but I figured what the hell
26
So we yell out: Hey girl, they yell back
27
Maybe two in the front maybe two in the back
28
But they had this dark tag couldn't see through the black
29
We roll up ask 'em where their party at
30
They just start to laugh and I knew it was a trap
31
But I couldn't roll out cause the strip was so packed
32
Now I'm lookin at this nigga in this motherfuckin' hat
33
Start talkin' that bullshit like we was on some bullshit
34
My nigga used to bang but we ain't know no thug shit
35
I tried to dismantle it but you know Los Angeles
36
This nigga kept talkin' so my boy had to handle it
37
He jumped out the Lex snatched the dude at his hat
38
I put it in park jumped out to get his back
39
But as I did that, I heard two shots
40
I turned to my right and I see my dude drop
41
Time stopped, couldn't believe what I seen
42
I was struck by reality when the two girls screamed
43
I saw his killer stand up put the gun in his jeans
44
Saw him wince from the pain as the heat burned his waist
45
Then he turned up the block disappeared without a trace
46
I remember his face but what I remember most
47
Was when I got to my knees and held my nigga close
48
And asked not to leave us in the name of Christ Jesus
49
But he's gone and all I got left is his blood on my sneakers
50
[Chorus: x2]
51
It was a year to this day that my best friend died
52
For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
53
And I tried to pretend everything was fine
54
But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine
55
The day began with me standin' at his grave with his mother
56
His old girlfriend, his two younger brothers
57
We said a few words faces covered with tears
58
How we missed him so much and we wished he was here
59
Then his girl said a poem put some roses on his stone
60
And we said our goodbyes and they all went home
61
I thought I'd use this time for me and him to be alone
62
I broke out the Hen' poured a little out for him
63
Told him who was gettin' married, who had went to the pen
64
How the homie named his newborn son after him
65
But as the sun went down the talk came to an end
66
So I said a quick prayer, amen
67
And I shook in the lab plus the well wrote tracks
68
And I headed up saw the homie Eyezeer
69
I asked him what he doin' he was way out of bounds
70
That he had a freak that lived on that side of town
71
He always kept the heat just in case it went down
72
A clown, I rolled down my window 'bout to light a ciga-
73
Hey! Is that that nigga that, hey give me the motherfucking gun
74
Man, drive around the block and post up for a minute
75
I hit you on the shirt hit the corner nigga bend it, splendid
76
Now with vengeance in my grasp
77
I couldn't dream of a better day for me to catch his ass
78
Slippin while he dippin into the ride by himself
79
I slid up behind him in the shadows hell of stealth
80
He started to breakin' stuff I said I didn't want a dime
81
Remember what you was doin' last year at this time
82
He looked into my eyes with both shock and surprise
83
When I split his face with the glock right before he could reply
84
He cried as I pressed the heat against his cheek
85
The I squoze two times for the homie rest in peace
86
[Chorus]
87
And I thought that's what I wanted until the problem was confronted
88
Now I'm haunted by remorse that I wished I hadn't done it
