Can't keep runnin' away..... |
|
Verse One: Fat Lip |
|
I must admit on some occasions I went out like a punk |
|
and a chump or a sucka or something to that effect |
|
Respect I usedto never get when all I got was upset |
|
when niggas use to be like 'What's up fool!' and tried |
|
to seat a nigga like the Lip for no reason at all I can |
|
recall crip niggas throwin' c in my face down the hall |
|
I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eatin' chicken at |
|
three, wonderin' why is everybody always pickin' on me |
|
I tried to talk and tell tham chill I did nothing to deserve |
|
this But when it didn't work I wasn't scared just real |
|
nervous and unprepared to deal with scrappin' no doubt |
|
cuz my pappy never told me how to knock a nigga out |
|
But now in 95 I must survive as a man on my own Fuck |
|
around with Fatlip yes ya get blown I'm not tryin to show |
|
no macho is shown but when it's on, if it's on, then it's on! |
|
Verse Two: Slim Kid Tre |
|
There comes a time in every mans life when he's gotta |
|
handle up on his own Can't depend on friends to |
|
help you in a sqeeze, please they got problems of their |
|
own Down for the count on seven chickens shits don't |
|
get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear |
|
zones Used to get jacked back in high school I played |
|
it cool just so some real shit won't get full blown Being |
|
where I'm from they let the smoke come quicker than an |
|
evil red-neck could lynch a helpless colored figure And |
|
as a victim I invented low-key til the keyhole itself got |
|
lower than me So I stood up and let my free form form |
|
free I don't sweat it I let the bullshit blow in the breeze |
|
in other words just freeze |
|
Verse Three: Knumbskull #1 |
|
It's 1995 now that I'm older stress weighs on my shoulders |
|
heavy as boulders but I told ya |
|
till the day that I die I still will be a soldier and that's all I told |
|
ya and that's all I showed ya |
|
and all this calamity is rippin' my sanity |
|
Can it be I'm a celebrity |
|
whose on the brink of insanity |
|
Now don't be wishin's of switchin' any positions with me |
|
cuz when you in my position, it ain't never easy |
|
to do any type of maintaining cuz all this gaming and famin' from |
|
entertainin' is hella straining to the brain and... |
|
But I can't keep runnin I just gotta keep keen and cunnin'... |
