He started running down the middle of the street
|
Bare feet, looking like he needs a little to eat
|
Broad daylight, the school kids are laughing at him
|
It doesn't matter, he's battling a traffic jam
|
A Pacman tryna come up a quarter
|
Joystick, put your score in the corner
|
Running from the ghosts till you get that pill
|
Gotta hit the wall when you wanna stand still
|
He's used to sell crack, years back
|
I remember it was him and his weird fat cousin
|
The last ones that you would've guessed at it
|
Soundtrack was "Black Planet" and "Sex Packets"
|
A long time ago in a hood
|
that is still relatively close as the crow flies
|
No time to grieve or bleed
|
Tryna find a way to fulfill those needs
|
|
[Chorus: 2X]
|
Such temptation, what's the basis?
|
Cutthroat rages, tuck the razor
|
Stuck in a phase of must get paid here
|
Blood rush, raised up to the majors
|

|
I was living at my dad's crib
|
still a kid, when my best friend began to drift
|
So I guess I was a lame
|
cause I wasn't with the game, motherfuck cocaine
|
Yeah I know you didn't want to be broke
|
It's a common excuse for those that sold dope
|
If your momma had knew, I know she'd throw blows
|
Y'all moved here from Chicago to grow
|
You got a tool up inside of your coat
|
And you got no clue why you decided to smoke
|
I never even said goodbye to the bloke
|
I would see him around but never try to provoke
|
But here we are two decades later
|
I'm curious to see what the kingpin's days made of
|
You never got to be Scarface
|
Caught between a rock and a hard place
|
Maybe he got something to say to me
|
I have to patiently wait and see
|
Hoping that heaven has a vacancy for dope fiends
|
Cause I know he never made it to the major leagues
|
|
[Chorus: 2X]
