1
Now when I just made 12 years old
2
My mama told me:'Baby boy, you know you gotta be strong
3
And even though they lead you wrong, stay on the right track
4
Cause it ain't no get right without some get back.'
5
Yeah, I heard that, but back then I didn't feel it
6
Cause I was rollin' do or die, tryna see me a ticket, just kickin'
7
G-block, I said I'll never leave
8
Even when the rollers chase me down til I can't breathe
9
Nigga freeze, who me? Oh, never that!
10
I'm hittin' fence after fence until I'm chillin' at my doormat
11
Like a mack I had to get away
12
Cause I'm a smooth operator, ask Shanda
13
But the rollers in the V is so shady
14
If they could, they would plan something on me
15
But really, them ain't the fools I gotta worry 'bout
16
Cause white folks goin' loced in the white house
17
And I doubt a republican or democrate
18
Gives a fuck about us young inner city blacks
19
It's a trap, Uncle Sam keeps cursing me
20
Rather have me in the pen than the university
21
Yeah, it's a shame but mane, that's how it is
22
So ya better peep game and try to lace ya kids
23
Cause it ain't no tellin' what's soon to come
24
When the punk president might drop the bomb
25
Got me all stressed out with my brain on numb
26
My little cousin asking me where dope come from
27
Chorus:
28
They try to tell us in the verses and the scriptures
29
But I guess the real message must have missed us
30
In '96 all my brothers and my sisters
31
Is on a mission, we're trippin' livin' senseless
32
Tell me, will I see the sun in days to come
33
Will blacks be the victors instead of victims
34
Or will my people keep killing over fuckin' crumbs
35
Pushin' dope just to reach ghetto stardom
36
If you ask Mac Mall who I'm voting for
37
I say:'Farrakhan' as I'm hittin' the bomb
38
I .. to the swisher or the dohja spliff
39
Get elevated to another as I reminisce
40
About fresh candy paint and peanut butter tops
41
Young hustlers havin' paper, livin' top notch
42
And then the D-game straight decline
43
And all you Sawyer turf niggas makin' headlines
44
10 o'clock news or America's most
45
Unsolved mysteries, you better soak some dope
46
Then the judge starts droppin' the injuries
47
On all the gangstas, playahs, macks and G's
48
And you know you won't see 'em til about 2 thou'
49
Cause ya boy got washed with a faulty assed trial
50
But at least one day he gone be free
51
Some soldiers ain't never gonna see the streets
52
That's why I keep servin' game over my beats
53
So all my people, in and out, can straight feel me
54
Chorus
55
There is nowhere for me to run
56
Nowhere for me to hide from reality
57
But I don't want to be a casualty
58
Of another tryna smother a brother just cause my salary
59
And dog, I tell ya that these times' so sick
60
That my sister's smoking dohja, 8 months pregnant
61
My brother bubble on the grind and he's way legit
62
Working on his third strike and he still won't quit
63
But I can't tell him nuttin' bout a salary job
64
So in order to get tha paper the boy gotta mob or sob
65
All will fall to the waistside
66
While the rollers overlook they want to take lifes
67
Youngstas they gettin' raised off the T.V.
68
Got white kids around the country want to be me
69
And the way they point the finger ain't even shob
70
Television replace religion, now the gangsta's god
71
And old folks wonder why we so crazy
72
90 knuckleheads and 70 high babies
73
And can't nobody tell me that I'm wrong
74
Uncle Sam finding ways to fit computer chips in my dome
75
So I should ask before you slip
76
See it's higher than the ultimate trip
77
Chorus
78
You know, dedicated to DJ Cee, S-Double the Mac
