(Pooh-Man)
|
|
Yeah me and the boy JT Tha Bigga Figga
|
Straight from west block San Quinn prison
|
serving five year sentence on a robbery case
|
This is to everybody I love
|
Everybody I am going to miss
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
(Pooh-Man)
|
|
September fifth
|
9 a.m.
|
Courtroom Ten
|
Turned myself in
|
Sentenced to five years on a robbery case
|
Can't forget the look on my women and mothers face
|
Now I am on the great goose west block thang
|
32 months now I got lay it down
|
No more riding with my homies getting high
|
Just reminiscing about the Eastside
|
Hit the weight pad
|
Trying to stay in shape
|
By the time I get out I have songs for 20 tapes
|
Family visit's I look forward to
|
And on my back I got a new tattoo
|
The 4 the 1 the 5 stripped in my stride now I got's to ride
|
One day soon I will be home
|
And my kids and there mother won't be alone
|
|
[Hook]
|
|
Sentenced to five long years
|
Room's full of tattoo tears
|
These 20 years on the compound
|
Never would I thought I would be penitentary bound
|
(2x)
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
(JT Tha Bigga Figga)
|
|
Never say they flow or flooded with game
|
10 years done past and now them thangs done changed
|
Remember the ballers
|
Remember the shot callers
|
Remember the times your homies
|
Were riding around in them 7-7-9 Impalas
|
Your life man it ain't right for me
|
Can't do a thang
|
Just stand in the back and give you a beat down
|
Homies is missing but ain't no need for reminiscing
|
Celebrating cuz all this time you been waiting
|
At the under spot now make it clever
|
Now lets start the nation make it a whole lot better
|
I am thinking about my grip
|
I have my twist
|
My freedom and a extra clip
|
I choose my freedom because I am on my way home
|
I get to sleep in my bed and get to see my kid
|
Grow into his manhood
|
No more waiting on the block
|
And playing hind and seek from a gang of cops
|
|
[Hook]
|
|
Sentenced to five long years
|
Room's full of tattoo tears
|
These 20 years on the compound
|
Never would I thought I would be penitrany bound
|

|
|
[Verse 3]
|
(Pooh-Man)
|
|
I got a letter from my house my homie just died
|
Seems nothing ever changes on the Eastside
|
Waiting, booking reading, eatin,
|
Penitentary lifestyle is playing with my head
|
Wish I never did what I done
|
But it's already done and I can't run
|
Missing my family and my freedom
|
I guess you never really know much you really need em
|
My girls are growing up to be young women
|
And I'm regretting everyday that there father is not with em
|
But everybody makes mistakes
|
Were only human
|
But reckless was the lifestyle I was pursuing
|
Smackin brothers jackin brothers
|
Now everyday the more miss my mother (I love my mother)
|
I walk around with my head hanging down
|
Never would I thought I would be penitentary bound
|
|
[Outro]
|
Sentenced to five long years
|
Room's full of tattoo tears
|
These 20 years on the compound
|
Never would I thought I would be penitentary bound
|
(4x)
