You don't even know the half..
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Man I been in and outta trouble since an adolescents
|
Spoiled rotten, dead fresh, wit no daddy present
|
I got two uncles, Quint and Man and they keep me straight
|
7 and 8, I'm countin money while they movin weight
|
My daddy send me clothes and always tell me come and see him
|
I say aiight but still I feelin like my momma need him
|
They sendin letters home from school, nobody read mines
|
And plus my uncles, doin 10 years F.E.D. time
|
Then I started rebellin, began crack sellin
|
Tha littlest thang on the corner wit a Mac 11
|
After school I hear my momma holla homework
|
I say aiight ma, but look I got my own work
|
Started interactin wit fiends at the age of 13
|
Now my momma findin rocks in my socks, glocks in my toy box
|
Like damn, why do trouble come to me like this
|
But on the real, it ain't even have to be like this (fuck)
|

|
Mistakes made on this road to wealth
|
I still ain't forgave myself
|
Ay, what I am today
|
I made myself but I still ain't forgave myself
|
For runnin to the grave getting closer to death
|
I still ain't forgave my self
|
For anyone who ever wondered how I felt
|
I still ain't forgave myself
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
At 14 man, thought I knew everything
|
I'm slangin slabs, trappin hard, movin heavy Cain
|
I bought an '85 cutlass on some dane-a-danes
|
Now I'm the shit, huh, the motor blew in 30 days
|
Hardheaded man I ain't listen to anything
|
I'm getting money so, I'm right and I got plenty game
|
Besides why I need school, Im'ma be rappin momma
|
If that don't work, then I guess Im'ma be trappin momma
|
But hey I promise Im'ma make it cause I'm damn good
|
Im'ma get us out this hood and off these can goods
|
School just a white man game, and it's ran good
|
At 16, here's my introduction to manhood
|
Blue lights behind me, damn what I'm gonna do
|
Cause I got 2 pounds of weed and a 3.80 too
|
I guess everything'll be aiight if I just keep it cool
|
How ya doin officer, what ya mean why I ain't in school
|
Can you search the car?? Yea but, I rather that you didn't
|
Besides it's just a waste of yo time cause ain't nutthin in it
|
[Laugh] I guess that's when I seen, that I ain't know shit
|
When stuck in a place wit freedom I ain't gone get.. (Damn!)
|

Mistakes made on this road to wealth
|

Ay, what I am today, I made myself
|

|
Guess these the chances ya take, when dealt the cards I was dealt
|
But I still ain't forgave myself
|
For anyone who ever wondered how I felt
|
I still ain't forgave myself
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
Outta all the niggaz I was wit when I was doin wrong
|
3 in the fed, 1 doin life, and 2 dead and gone
|
Knew there was more to life than sellin blow and chopper bustin
|
But what's the good in knowin' better if I ain't tell 'em nutthin
|
I knew I coulda told Cap not to kill shawty
|
Put down the gun, get in the car let 'em live shawty
|
You'll probably get locked up, and I'll probably have a deal shawty
|
Naw, I ain't scared, I'm just telling ya like it is shawty
|
Coulda told Endae, Quint, and Kern, man ya covers blow
|
Leave that country town alone, yall needa come back home
|
Bankhead and J-Rue, I just feel like if I was wit 'em
|
They woulda never got killed that night if I was 'em
|
Seem like I coulda done mo', said mo'
|
Why all my partners gotta be dead or in the fed fo'??
|
All the time, I just wish that yall could ball wit me
|
Sometimes at night I close my eyes, and dream that yall wit me (damn.)
|
