(*talking*)
Uh-huh, you understand, this for all the n***as
That's out there drugging you understand
I ain't hating on you n***as, I feel y'all pain man
And it's like this here, just peep this song out n***a
It's real, cause I done been through it
And I done left it alone
[Turk]
I understand now, I'm a grown man now
I was out there dog, no more dope in the bangs now
I done been through it, and I know what it's like
When you can't get no sleep, on a all night flight
Not worrying bout sh**, not a god damn thang
All you want is that hit, and to hear that ring
I know it's hard dog, it ain't easy to quit
When that monkey on your back, n***a need that sh**
You got to feed that b**h, cause he gon straight blues you
Get that noise out you, especially if you a shooter
I know you filthy, don't lie tell the truth
The sh** you hearing, sound like I'm talking bout you
But I'm just keeping it real, telling it like it is
This sh** ain't just started, been going on for years
And I'm sick of, sh** k**ing us slow
I'm a grown man, and I don't want it no mo'
[Hook]
See what you n***as doing, I done been through that
From weed to coke, to that sh** they call smack
And I ain't gon lie, that sh** done broke my back
I done left it alone, and I ain't going back
[Turk]
They say time is hard, but time is what you make it
When you're wasting time, I call that baking
I done did a lot of wasting, in my life
A lot of drug chasing, all day and night
Same clothes bout a week, could you believe that there
No bath, brushing teeth, or braid my hair
Just running like a chicken, with his head cut off
When I'm banging never missing, you can ask my dog
I ain't give a motherf** about whoever, whatever
Turk was gonna get it, in any kinda weather
Out there head first, had to get me
One and one everytime, never cope without the deed
That's just how it be, when you living that life
Stealing through your peeps, when you living that life
Or was it just me, who was living that life
Caught up in these streets, just living this life
[Hook]
[Turk]
I said it plenty of times, but now I really mean it
f** that sh**, cause I no longer need it
It ain't good for me, cause it's bringing me down
And plus I'm never happy, cause I stay with a frown
Man I love my life, f** throwing it away
f**ing with it leave it alone, please believe what I say
Cause if I could do it, you could do it too my n***a
No such things, as you can't do n***a
It's on you my n***a, nobody else dog
You know one thang, your boy been on your cell dog
f** help dog, cold turkey that b**h
And I bet you that you don't want go through it again
I'm through with it man, I done left it alone
And f** turning back, cause I done left it alone
[Hook]
(*talking*)
Yeah, and it's like that ya heard me
I'm a living testimony to that monkey
That nasty untamed gorilla, ya understand
I feel you n***as hurting, I know how it is you understand
Waking up 8:00 in the morning, yawning
Body aching and you broke, don't know what to do
You understand, but you gotta do something
Cause that gorilla gon pimp you, you understand
He gon make you go get him, cause he gotta eat you understand
Either rob, k**, steal it don't matter you understand
You gotta get it, the best way you could you understand
If you out there drugging or thugging, you understand
That's on you man, I ain't hating on you, you understand
Yeah and it's like that man, let that man do what he want do
If he wanna be out there on the corner shooting up
You understand, snorting up, tooting up
That's all on him you understand, don't knock a n***a
For what he do you understand, he gon come in
Just like I came in, you can come in too n***a
You understand and it's like that there, I respect you yeah
