[01:11.561] |
The kid was like twelve or thirteen |
[01:13.369] |
Never had the chance like other kids to follow dreams |
[01:16.624] |
Watched his father catch two in the dome and to the spleen |
[01:19.859] |
Nothin' but blood everywhere, these streets are mean |
[01:23.200] |
They spared his life, but killed his moms and his sister Jean |
[01:26.733] |

[01:36.216] |
His pops got played out though, with silencers they laid him out yo |
[01:40.415] |
Took his stash and all the cash and left 'em, tied up on the couch yo |
[01:44.054] |
With tape over his mouth, so he couldn't cry out |
[01:47.309] |
Cause his dad was the ***** with clout |
[01:49.582] |
Survival of the fittest so they split his wig no doubt |
[01:52.797] |
Despite the stocking caps he noticed the same cat, who used to give him dough |
[01:57.066] |
And taught him, to use the same gat |
[01:59.253] |
Supposed to be an Uncle, fam and all that |
[02:01.830] |
He could tell that it was him cause he had on the same slacks, he wore when |
[02:06.302] |
He took him to Meadowlands racetrack |
[02:08.842] |
Why did he flip and go out like that? |
[02:11.465] |
It's called betrayal |
[02:15.310] |
Scandalous, money greed and lust |
[02:18.417] |
In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust |
[02:21.517] |
Plus there's no justice, it's just us |
[02:24.755] |

A betrayal |
[02:41.005] |
Punk ass ****** |
[02:44.286] |
It's called betrayal |
[02:48.166] |
He on a mission to become a ball player |
[02:50.967] |
Flip big Benz's, flossin' all gators |
[02:54.221] |
Had it all mapped out, a 6-8 12th grader |
[02:57.334] |
Fresh outta school and finna go make paper |
[03:00.626] |
He had a brother who was hustlin', collectin' his change |
[03:03.604] |
Never let his baby brother stick his neck in the game |
[03:06.749] |
Told him all he had to do is just enjoy the ride |
[03:10.087] |
And he ain't have to worry about money cause that's in time |
[03:13.557] |
So now he's pacin' as the time moves slowly |
[03:16.926] |
Can't wait to face Shaquille in the paint and school Kobe |
[03:20.114] |
Kept his grades and stayed up under neighborhood functions |
[03:23.284] |
And then a group of knuckleheads came through dumping |
[03:26.677] |
So now he's sittin' on the sidewalk bleeding |
[03:29.907] |
Fell into a puddle of his own blood and stopped breathin' |
[03:33.180] |
And everybody in the neighborhood still grievin' |
[03:36.270] |
But destiny caught up with his ass and he got even |
[03:39.629] |
And all the cryin' in the world ain't goin' to bring him back |
[03:43.053] |
His brother, sittin' at the wake wipin' tears from his mother's eyes |
[03:47.514] |
Why'd the game have to go and take the young boys life |
[03:50.552] |
Only the wicked live shife, payin' the price |
[03:53.608] |
While he's starin' at the shell his brother's soul once held |
[03:56.997] |
The trigger man made bail |
[03:58.644] |
And you, wouldn't pay the boy his mail, and sacrificed your ******' family |
[04:04.245] |
That's betrayal |
[04:05.575] |
Betrayal (echoes) |
[04:07.206] |
Money greed and lust |
[04:08.378] |
In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust |
[04:11.754] |
Plus there's no justice, it's just us |
[04:14.991] |
In fact, watchin' yo back it be must |
[04:18.375] |
And each and everyday around the way gats bust |
[04:21.507] |
And jealous so-called friends'll try to set you up |
