[Scarface]
2
She don't want to be with me no mo'
3
Ain't her fault she just tired of this dumb shit that she don't know
4
Whether to, throw in the towel or if he gon' grow
5
And if he do, where is he gon' go?
6
Got a letter from an old friend, I read it and cried
7
When he told me that his girl just died
8
Right out of the blue, breast cancer, wasn't nothin to do
9
Now I'm sittin here and thinkin of you
10
Tryin to come to amends, cause really I done wanted you in
11
You the only one I trust as a friend
12
I know I'm on my last leg limpin with this bullshit written
13
But I still gotta bring it to light
14
Spent half of a lifetime missin cause I would not listen
15
Confused about my wrong and my rights
16
They tellin me that time heals wounds though
17
This wound gon' need some stitches; I got testimony for niggaz
18
You doin what you do but when the shoe gets flipped
19
Standin on the other foot got your boots and shit
20
When you back up and analyze, fix shit and finalize
21
Before you leave the shit alone just try
22
Maybe there's somethin you can do to rectify what's did
23
And plus you gotta think of the kids
24
That's kinda just the way life is, you either gotta live or you die
25
At least that I can say that I tried
26
[Chorus: Scarface]
27
Cause I tried, I tried to do the best I could
28
Sometimes I guess my best ain't good... enough
29
Cause when it's over, said shit done
30
You sittin by yourself mixed up
31
But I tried, I tried to do the best I could
32
Sometimes I guess my best ain't good... enough
33
Cause when it's over, said shit done
34
You sittin by yourself mixed up, but I tried
35
[Willie D]
36
Faster than a crackhead, can pawn yo' shit
37
Willie D'll put a foot in you bitch
38
I sold dope, robbed folks, had to make ends meet
39
Since 5th grade, I been up in these streets, tryin to get it
40
Raised by a single mother, two sisters two brothers
41
I used to think she didn't love us
42
Cause she beat us so much, plus she came home drunk
43
But every now and then she'd knock on wood, and say
44
I tried to do the best that I could - and I believe her
45
Cause she was treated evil out the box
46
You can't get what you ain't got
47
Momma I was young, hittin licks, started helpin you out
48
'Bout the closest that you came to a man of the house
49
I was talkin back, walkin through the do' gettin smacked
50
You used to brag to your friends on how, well I rapped
51
We never really got along but when you took sick
52
I was at your side 'til you died
53
I wasn't the best son but I tried
54
[Chorus]
55
[Bushwick Bill]
56
I've always been crook, never given up
57
But the past few years has been really rough
58
Felt like givin up a couple of times
59
Take a jump or plant a slug deep, up in my mind
60
Fuck it I'm dyin, done wit strugglin for mine
61
Sleepin on fans, knowin there ain't no use to me lyin
62
Change my name for anonymity's sake
63
But a four feet dwarf that be on television's hard to miss
64
I get pissed over little shit, little shit drive me crazy
65
Then I start thinkin 'bout my babies
66
I cain't go to jail, I cain't die
67
Who better to teach 'em 'bout this cruel world than I?
68
Their mommas won't let me see 'em, I still pay my support
69
Cause once you give life, life is bigger than yours
70
Maybe I'm not all you expect me to be
71
But when it's done and said ultimately, daddy tried
72
[Chorus]
