[Verse One: Ludacris]
11
You never know how much you miss a person, until they gone
12
Like to hear it? Hear it go, I'm rehearsing, gotta sing my song
13
I know I've done some wrong, but I can't get right
14
Cause life is like a big fight
15
I'm stickin-and-movin, tryin to get my shit right
16
My family's been houndin me, friends they done turned against me
17
Kinda like they hearts was on a full tank, but now they empty
18
And they say I've changed, but like twins I'm just the same
19
It's because of my job, mo' money mo' prob in this dirty game
20
This industry fucked up
21
That's right I said it, and it's fake as ever
22
Keep real niggaz around me, stay "Space Age 4 Eva"
23
Po-ppa never went and jumped the broom, never got that one degree
24
But if you looked down from heaven, you'd still be proud of me
25
Your son was dui, but my momma made it by
26
I didn't she'd no tears when you left me
27
But the rest of the family cried
28
Trials and tribulations, ruined my concentration
29
Losin my patience, hard times for goodness sake'
30
[Chorus:]
31
[Verse Two: Eightball]
32
As this Valium slowly starts to kick in
33
Them subconcious, subliminal thoughts, start tickin
34
This whole world around me, diseased, and crumblin
35
Babies doin dope cause daddy did it right in front of them
36
Everybody wanna blame music for they bad kids
37
Sittin up in the court talkin 'bout Eminem made me do what I did
38
My own hard times rolled in like the fog
39
Try to think of others, but I can't get past my own thoughts
40
My momma, in 1967, pickin cotton
41
While other blacks was gettin liberated, boycottin
42
My old man was a player, ain't no hidin that
43
He started tootin then he graduated to smokin crack
44
I never saw him, never needed to see that muh'fucker
45
He left me and my mother stuck down here in this fuckin gutter
46
I tattoed it on my arm so I can't forget it
47
It's in my mind and my heart so I'm forever with it
48
[Chorus:]
49
[Verse Three: mjg]
50
A drum machine, the old fo'-track, and a pack of new tapes
51
In the middle of, 1988, in a corner cafe
52
We made beats, and hung with old heads, and stayed out late at night
53
Do talent shows, fo'-way split the dough, that was our way of life
54
My momma stayed, home full time so she could raise me
55
Knowin without a, household father, things could get crazy
56
Sometimes I listened, sometimes I thought I knew it all
57
But nevertheless, momma was with me through it all
58
I graduated out of nothin, not out of school, it was like
59
12, 13, 14 years I'm thinkin cool
60
I might as well, be focusin on me tryin to get paid
61
Usin these rhymes I've been writin since in the 7th grade
62
Our team played, and had physical s** with minimum wage
63
It was just like a piece of pussy
64
It fucked me long as I stayed
65
But still I prayed, Lord I'm tryin now please help me out the water
66
It can't get no harder
67
Help me to get back up and get my shit tomorrow
68
[Chorus - 2X]
