7
the streets got meaner, the hoes got growner
8
and went and got baby?s the day they got a diploma
9
damn, there?ll be some -ggas missing when you fly back
10
if you black, they sending you to jail or to Iraq
11
old buddy that we hoop with, with a bad chick and a fly lac
12
anda gold chain, caught him on a merc, tryna buy crack
13
damn homie, sh-t, in high school you was the man homie
14

15
used to beat -ggas down at the buses after school
16

37

[J. Cole - Verse 3]
48

51
that trying to get laid so i gotta stay fly
52
but a -gga had a shot you?d have thought thats where the bulls play
53
wished this freshman could used a little Kool-aid
54
crushing on them upper clansmen but it was tool late
55
buddy she was dating he had the freshest shoes
56
but the -gga was graduated but he never made two a?s
57
hey if you?re listening we got in to school
58
but who will pay our tuition man
59
these -ggas crazy
60
one year cost about the same as a Mercedes (benz)
61
four years cost white crib and a baby
62
ay maybe this aint for me
63
if only i could be Lebron with the strength to leave
64
the worst part about growing up man the shit just aint for free
65
maybe i can be someone people pay to see
66
and maybe i should move up outta here to the place to be
67
to get from a to z ay what you think im crazy
68
if i told you one day that Imma sign with jay-z
69

70
[Chorus]
