Door slamming is heard. A Voice says Lay Down, Your Next Visit Is In Two Days Springs from a bed is heard.
Fuck Man. . . I Was In Too Deep. . . .
My Rights Revoked, Shit Causes Me To Sigh And Choke
I Lied About Coke, Cause I Don't Wanna Die Or Be Broke
Tryin This Smoke, Gettin By On A Hundred Every Few Days
News Say, The Brusies Of A Life Bout To End In A Cool Way
These Chains On My Feet, Allow Me To Be, Nuthin More Than A Worker
Wife With A Kid On The Way, Keep The Pain At Bay, Try Not Ta Hurt Her
Hard To Survive, Red In Parts Of My Eye, High Can't Subside
I Try Ta Provide, Enough Paper To Find Wifey Food For My Seed
Mood Movin With Deeds, Rocks On The Block Cause I Need
The Green, I Strive For N Ride More, To Deal This Shit Quick
Parents Sayin I Got No Dick, But I'm Bustin My Ass For A Fix
Caught In The Mix, Bought Every Fuckin Thing I Could
Sell Good, So When My Son Is Born We Outta Tha Hood
Paid For Protection, So I Carry Heat To Leave Beef In Stretchers
But I Just Want Perfection, Life And Order Need Connection
Don't Need This Stress N, Cops Is Runnin Checks N Leavin Me Guessin
[Chorus]
Tryna Make A Livin But Peoples Is Givin Me Shit
Sinnin With Bricks, I'm Jus Tryna Get Me Some Chips
I'm Working Fucking Hard, Strugglin To Make Ends Meet
Make Wins Peak, But Sins Creep, Am I In Too Deep?
It's Like God Had It Out For Me, Done Had A Bout With Disease
I'm Beggin Please As I Smoke These Trees And Fall On Knees
End This Sufferin', Get Me Somethin, Don't Leave Me With Nothin'
Don't Lead Me With Bluffin, Really I Don't Need Any Frontin
Believe Me Cousin, I'm Buzzin' With My Life Lookin At Labor
Family Callin' Me A Traitor, Sayin' I'm A Fuckin Drug Blazer
With Emotions Goin Up N Down Like Elevators. . .
I'm Needin This Non-Sense To Stop
I Got Sense To Pop Shit If My Mu'Fuckin Money Flops
Then My Honey Drops, Sweat Beads Runnin Down Her Head
God Tests G's I See, I'm Restless As Wifey Lay Up In The Bed
My Pockets Full Of Dough, I Can Buy That Crib
Buy The Toys For My Kid, And Provide A Nice Life To Live
Baby Bought To Come Out, Cops Runnin' In With Guns Out
My Son's Out, Wife Cryin As Cuffs Like My Hands Now
Hands Down, They Busted Me For Hustlin' Weed On The Street
These Mu'Fuckas Only See Green And Don't Realize. .
I Was Jus Tryna Get What I Need
[Chorus]
Now I'm Lookin At My Wife N Son Behind A Stained Glass
The Pain Lasts, Forever And A Day, Cryin With Chains On My Ass
I Put My Hand Up But Can't Touch, Only See A Tear In My Baby's Eye
Daddy Why? It's Drivin Me Crazy To See My Lady Try
To Hold It Together, I Tell Her This Is Jus Some Bad Weather
Tell my Son, Pops Is Clever N I Won't Be Locked Up Forever
My Time Is Up, I Blow A Kiss, Reminice Then Hit My Cell
Think To Myself, I Got Enough Stashed To Get My Ass Out On Bail
But Oh Girl Ain't Tell, She Spent That Money Cause She Was Hungry
So I'ma Stuck G, Locked Down With Cops Now, I Pray Every Sunday
Get Me Outta This Shit, It's A Fuckin Crime To Wanna Provde For My People?
I'm Writin Rhymes Equal To Kineval, Words Lethal, My Lifes Evil
Devil's Over Took Me, No Longer A Rookie, I See What I Need To
Tell Wifey I Need To See You, Cause My Heart Hurts So Much--
That One Touch Will Cause It To Bleed Through
Mom N Dad Have Fully Turned Their Backs So It's Support I Lack. . I Think
That This Is The Fact, God Put Me On My Back Cause I Was In Too Deep
Damn. . .
