They putting prices on heads, silver or lead
3
I pray the scores settle 'fore the devil notice you dead
4
Got me smoking the potent, my eyes open and Otis, they red
5
Thoughts of my eye roam and words that I hoped I had said
6
That aunty sippin on, we missin ya
7
Even tho you gone, your thought alone can lift us up
8
This is us
9
Got some niggas that never call me unless they need something,
10
But I pick up, like, "whassup, what you need cousin?"
11
My niggas know that I love 'em
12
Give 'em roses while they can smell 'em
13
Cause ain't no tellin' who'll be here tomorrow
14
Used to borrow your digital scale
15
Flippin' them sales
16
But now it's digital dash while you're still in the past

Boy, trust me when I tell you, the picture got much bigger
18
The swishers and dutch fill up

Bitches in lust with us
20
Momma would dissapprove, losing my way
21
Lost in the sauce, this bolognese is so amazing
22
Had a talk and she remark: "you so engaging"
23
Running game, it's all the same
24
I'm growing jaded
25
Had a couple things in common, like Lonnie Lynn
26
But I'm too faded for conversatin'
27
I'm sittin' here contemplatin'
28

Cousin in jail again, asking me for bail again
35
Close when I was 12, but I was much frailer then
36
He was like 16, a nigga from the gutter and
37
Years ago his favorite uncle had married my mother and
38
Here we are, runnin' through the Ville like dumb and dumber and
39
For that summer man I swear I wish you was my brother then
40
Well time passed and we fell off cause you moved back home
41
Little did you know Jermaine done grew a new back bone
42
Niggas thought he wouldn't make it 'till he proved that wrong
43
12 years later on the radio that Who Dat song
44
Your homeboy bumps the Warm Up now you buggin'
45
Cause you looking at the cover and you say "Yo that's my cousin"
46
And niggas looking at you like you lying but you wasn't
47
Next thing I know you blowing up my line all a sudden
48
And I'm showing love saying "yo look what I did,
49
Man, nobody coming from here ever did this shit this big"
50
But now you saying "Man enough about you,
51
Shit what about me, my nigga what about me?
52
Oh you forgot about me?"
53
Saying "Niggas showed you how to rap, now you don't know how to act
54
Boy I'm at the bottom you could pull a nigga out of that
55
Put me in a video, yo put me on your hottest track
56
Bring me on the road with you, you know 'cuz got yo back
57
And I'm strapped up if them niggas act up
58
See you headed to the top you need to let me catch up
59
Please let me catch up
60
Won't you let me catch up man"
61
"I'll see you when I see you
62
Harsh as it seems to say, I wouldn't want to be you
63
Bail you out for your daughter and I pray to God
64
A nigga never pull your card or she won't ever get to see you"
