[Trae] Somebody help him that boy ain't tripping, he really misunderstood |
|
Addicted to doing bad, but he trying to get out the hood |
|
Life as an adolescent, got him stressing back in the day |
|
Now he paranoid, ducking and dodging to get away |
|
You would think a hard life, is what he prayed to have |
|
Everytime he reached out for love, there was nobody he could grab |
|
That's why he was cold inside, he took his pain as strive |
|
With a 4-5, minus one to stay alive |
|
A ghetto baby is what he was, his uncle was doing drugs |
|
And left him to be a thug, on the corner with nigga slugs |
|
His brother was locked up, and mama was stressed out |
|
He was a good kid, until reality turned him out 20 years old, on the way to becoming a man |
|
Live in another world, people would never understand |
|
Loving to be alone, feeling like he would meet the end |
|
The good life, was never part of the plan [Hook] |
|
Let me tell you a story, bout a dude |
|
I know With so much pain in his heart, it wouldn't show |
|
And he never knew when his life, was gon go |
|
Everytime he'd step out, he grabbed the fo'-fo' |
|
Let me tell you a story, bout a dude |
|
I know With so much pain in his heart, it wouldn't show |
|
Everybody he knew, was living so shife |
|
But he kept on moving, trying to live life [Trae] |
|
Now he running the block |
|
With a pocket full of rocks, missing |
|
FED time And watching hating niggaz, so he don't wind up with dead time |
|
Cause everything he got, that nigga rightfully earned |
|
Get in his way behind his paper, he was subject to leave you burned |
|
Plus he running with a click of guerillas, that's living shife |
|
And hated life, the only way out was to pay the price |
|
He was ready for whatever, decisions he made his own |
|
And since they pissed him off, he would prolly be moving alone |
|
Doing his own thang, to hell with the consequences |
|
Real ran through his blood, and them niggaz payed attention |
|
He wanted to get it together, but it was prolly too late |
|
He took the wrong turn, and that's what decided his fate |
|
It wasn't his fault, but that's how the game done got him |
|
Swallowed him up and left him, to be on the rock bottom |
|
Without no say-so, a victim of circumstance |
|
Put in a situation, begging for a hand [Hook] [Trae] |
|
Nowhere to turn nowhere to go, so he contemplate suicide |
|
Mentally out of line, needing help but he got pride |
|
He got a child on the way, but his baby mama don't want him |
|
Cause he broke without a job, and probation be leaning on him |
|
Three strikes, and he heated to live in the penitentiary |
|
Believe me it get lonely, to niggaz without a family |
|
He might get lost to the system, or might get shanked in a bed |
|
The thought of calling it quits, gotta be running through his head |
|
He don't know what to do, he praying he in a dream |
|
Waking up in a cold sweat, to be shaking it like a fiend |
|
But he can't get away, so he be running out his mind |
|
People looking for him, so he know he running out of time |
|
One of three things can happen, he can run or wind up dead |
|
Or go out on his own, with a 44 to the head |
|
No one ever really knew, cause ain't nobody seen him since |
|
He disappeared in the night, with no evidence [Hook x2] [Hook] |
