Dropped out the twelve'th
7
'cause my wealth is shorter than a midget on his knees
8
Now I slang keys
9
Infest my hood with crack, 'cause I'm the mack
10
Take a nation of millions to hold me back

Used to get 18 when my G was alive, now a key is 13-5

Lawyer got paid, plea, no contest
31
And everything I own got repossessed
32
Now take a look at the dust

And I'm happy 'cause I only got 36 months
34
Never picked up a book
35
But my arms are 16 inches, niggas look
36
Can't wait for '92 so I can get with my crew
37
And see, what can I do?
