See what iand'm talkin bout here
Is love is life and life is love
And you can love bein a thug if you want
Ainand't nothin wrong with that nigga
But what you do will come back to you
You know
Check me out
Awoke but never ever dreamed itand'd be the last time
Steamin and laughin with my niggas under sunshine
In my mind if i knew that my day would turn tragically wrong
Iand'da edited this shit and wrote a brand new song
All i heard was the word of the wrath of god
Pointed at my chest, hollow tips in barrage
Stuck inside the middle, watched allah pull my card
As he told me: and'time is up for all you niggas livin hardand'
Question: and'why me?and' said: and'you couldnand't see
Rather drink your hennessy like you was watchin over me
I was generous, hit you up a chance, time to change
But you rather be a knucklehead livin off a nameand'
Now iand'm shocked as he explained it all, vivid in a tale
Iand'm feelin every minute like the blind feel the braille
Lost inside the shuffle of the bitches and the mail
He rolled up and told me: and'inhale...and'
To live or die by the same shit
Leavin behind everything that it came with
The verdict of a life niggas play with
Try the truth, itand'll all come back to you
He said: and'i had a lotta hope for youand' i said: and'i know you didand'
Said: and'i couldnand't see you on this road when you was just a kid
But i had to let you grow to man and use the brain i gave you
Thinkin maybe give this rap shit a crack and try to save you
You bein you, rather juggle with the crew
Find some drama, break the rules, spend your money on em jewels
And the tools that i gave you sat around and caught rust
While the tools them niggas hit you with, you turn around and bustand'
Itand's disgusting, dropped my head, threw my hands in the air
Said: and'i know that all in all it seemed i never really caredand'
Still and all iand'm feelin scared and he said: and'you wasnand't buggin
One of them nights you came prepared with baby-macs, started thuggin
Now itand's time for you to see exactly what it means
When youand're reapin what youand're sowin in between...and'
...know what i mean
I said: and'itand's all said and done, showed the pictures, brought the factsand'
Said: and'i tried to play it chill, but ainand't no evidence to that
Bring me back and iand'ma never do the same shit again
Word to mother, daughter, son, and all my peoples in the pen
Hope youand're listenin, itand's hard for me to beg someone for somethinand'
Said: and'your problem, thatand's fear, too much pride, steady frontin
If you took the time to think about the ends and what it means
Wouldnand't find yourself a million somethin feet above the scenes
And i know theyand're goin through you, felt the pressure and the pain
It was all about the cream and all the props you had to gain
For the fame you sacrificed the love i showed, to play the game
Now youand're just another reason why the shitand'll stay the same
Now you chill with me forever, ainand't nobody else to blame
And the only thing you left behindand's a name
A shame you opened up your ears just a little late as i explain
Youand're just another nigga layin slainand'
