(Xzibit)
|
My son was born about four and a half years ago
|
Loved and protected him, amazin how fast they grow
|
I came to know about his likes and his dislikes (yeah)
|
Video games, taught him how to ride his first bike (that's it)
|
This is the life my little nigga, I see you gettin all upset
|
When I leave the house, poutin, let me tell you about
|
Tryna make it in this world and provide for you
|
Cause on them overseat plane rides I miss you too
|
Never knew that I would have to be away so much
|
Five thousand dollar phone bills keepin in touch
|
We Starskey and Hutch, yeah, we partners for life, yeah
|
I rock mics, so I'm sorry when I hug you if I squeeze too tight
|
Long nights in the studio take me away
|
Gettin mad 'cause I'm tired and you want me to play
|
Money can't replace time, I'm just tryna get you outta the fine relyin
|
And expand your mind my lil' ni', yeah
|
Yeah, c'mon
|
|
(Chorus-X)
|
Look, sorry I'm away so much
|
Understand me, yeah
|
It's for you, hah, yeah (you, and you, and you)
|
C'mon, look, sorry I'm away so much
|
Huh, we keep it gangsta
|
Look
|
|
(Xzibit)
|
I got a brother locked down, he be out in a couple
|
Knuckle for knuckle, a veteran and nothin but muscle
|
Now broadcastin live from behind the wall
|
Stayin tight through long kites and telephone calls
|
Gettin hype when you see your brother on T.V.
|
Can't wait for your release so you can roll with me
|
Arrange everything exactly how it's supposed to be
|
For right now here's a thousand, J, stay lo-key
|
You say damn Xzibit, whyn't you pay a nigga a visit
|
Time limits got me movin a million miles a minute
|
Knee deep, gotta strike while the iron is hot
|
Still gotta eat and keep the lights on when it's not
|
Sleepin on cots, bullet wounds got you in knots
|
I wish I was there to snatch you up instead of the cops
|
Muthafuck it, do the time and get it out of the way
|
You goin from convict to corporate nigga in one day (in one day)
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
(Quik)
|
Now I ain't never been this hot before
|
So in essence it's obvious, I ain't never been this out before
|
I'm spending 25-8 days, 366 times a year
|
Up in the studio freakin and mixin rhymes in here
|
Nothin but beer, bud smoke, Hen and Coke, women and sheer
|
Callin playa niggas there
|
Not the kinda place I really wanna bring my son
|
Get on lil' Dane, gon' in there and have you some fun
|
Used to be that ??? be up there sewin ya clothes
|
While I'm with you on the Playstation showin you codes
|
Hit the X button stupid, forward, left, right, X
|
Now I'm tryna get your college fund, bustin with X
|
|
(Suga Free)
|
Come here, give that here dada,
|
no no don't do that mama 'cause dada be back
|
Here go your ba-ba, Pampers, flashy ???, you can see that
|
You tryna figure out
|
why dada talkin to you through this glass on the phone
|
Ooh, I socked a bitch and then she snitched, but I'll be home
|
Can't keep me away, just can't stay away
|
|
(Chorus-Suga Free)
