First breathe |
| [00:32.77] |
Started off a bad ass |
| [00:34.70] |
East side roamin |
| [00:36.02] |
Out late gettin cash |
| [00:37.34] |
Killas don't talk |
| [00:38.46] |
So I can't say s**t |
| [00:40.02] |
So read between the lines |
| [00:41.27] |
And just paint your own pic |
| [00:42.71] |
Hustlin baby |
| [00:43.83] |
On the grind |
| [00:45.34] |
I was brought up right |
| [00:46.46] |
But stayed outta line |
| [00:47.84] |
Guess you can say when you lose |
| [00:49.90] |

Couldn't nobody give me rules |
| [01:17.13] |
Every now and then a jail cell |
| [01:18.94] |
But what's that prove |
| [01:19.69] |
I was still bein hard headed |
| [01:21.26] |
Claimin the streets |
| [01:22.06] |
(We have a red skinded male here disturbin the streets) |
| [01:25.31] |
Problems problems everybody's got em |
| [01:27.93] |
Jack and sticc and cut and shoot and rob and |
| [01:30.81] |
I was addicted to all |

No need for safety nets |
| [02:02.02] |
Cuz I will never fall |
| [02:03.08] |
Keep it floatin like a ghost at night |
| [02:04.83] |
And put fear in those who's eyes just ain't right |
| [02:07.89] |
I got angels watchin over |
| [02:10.52] |
I can feel em when I'm speakin |
| [02:11.89] |
Like they're on my shoulder |
| [02:13.39] |
And I admit that it sure feels good |
| [02:15.77] |
To finally get a chance to be understood |
| [02:18.83] |
Hard times was broke payin dues |
| [02:21.34] |
Made a lot of friends and I met a lot of fools |
| [02:24.14] |
