This story takes place, back in the South Bronx
11
where at the age of 14 I was already knockin off punks (yeah!)
12
And suckers were scared to death -- every time I walked by
13
I hear them niggaz take their last breath (ahhh..)
14
See I just didn't give a fuck - and if you had a C-skin
15
a leather bomber, you was gettin stuck (word!)
16
That was the way it was
17
One day I went to visit my aunt, and stuck up my cuz
18
See shit was fucked up back then
19
No matter what the fuck I did I never had no ends
20
And my moms was on walfare
21
Aiyyo I knew I had a father, but the nigga was never there
22
So what the fuck was I to do
23
I'm sick and tired of bein the bummiest nigga out the crew
24
I gotta get mine, I gotta get cash
25
I see an old man, I'm gonna rob him with the quick-fast
26
Give me your motherfuckin loot, papi
27
I'm gonna get paid, and can't a damn thing stop me
28
See, I'm tired of this poor shit
29
And who the cops? Well they can suck my motherfuckin dick
30
Cause all them niggaz ever do is harass
31
That's why I get glad when I hear somebody smoked that ass (*gunshot*)
32
Just to let ya know how I feel
33
Word em up, the fuckin shit is real
34
Hey yo, it's real

40
Now I'm sixteen and there's a brand new scene
41
I'm makin mad loot, gettin paid off the dope fiends (word)
42
Keep the shit in check, in order
43
and my main man Tone was fuckin everybody else's daughter
44
See everybody knew in town
45
that Joe and Tone had shit locked down
46
And a nigga wouldn't test me
47
It seems like every other day the fuckin cops arrest me (yea!)
48
But the shit will never stick
49
I make one phone call and be out like quick
50
Cause Uncle Dan had my back
51
And now niggaz gettin jealous cause they know I'm livin fat
52
Talkin shit around the way and on the block
53
But never in my face, cause they knew I packed a glock
54
And my crew is mad deep
55
A bunch of crazy Puerto Ricans, so aiyyo don't sleep (word!)
56

73
