Yeah
[Verse 1]
Ross was the youngest one but just as troublesome
Succumbs to d** and guns freshman 14
Ran with the mischievous hoodlums to stick up kids
Went on to do a bit senior year 17
Just another hard-headed cat with hood etiquette
One thing in mind gotta get mine yo
Yours, hers and his, poverty encourages
The pressure from one's peers
Want the girl, get the gear
Failing every course
I wasn't built for sports
Skinny, awkward guy that got high to stay occupied
40's, old E, st. ides
Mushrooms, acid I tried
Add in ego and pride
The making of Senim's Frankenstein
But there's more to the story
I gave a f** for authority
sh** they never did for me
Teenage minority, I acted accordingly
Mama, papa don't know me
New shoes, new clothes I stole these
Disguised good guy supposing, 'til that day I met them police
[Hook]
Always after some thing with the same city lights watching over
I guess it's just a human thing, everybody wanna be the king (king)
I got 20 dollar dream, just a penny a time
Getting high off remains of the day
See the pot don't boil if there ain't no fire
So I'm a burn 'til I burn away
I'm a lost cause baby, don't you try to find me
I done made up my mind I'm gonna stay
Living less than capital is more than enough
More than enough ain't enough for me
I'm still trying to find a better way
[Verse 2]
It ain't me
It ain't me
I ain't no senator's son, I ain't no fortunate one
Fortunately I ain't get caught with the gun
I walked down 2 and change, got home 19 still young
On the surface, the pious, righteous, Islamic observant
'til faced with temptation, the apple, the serpent
Got took by the current dog
A lack of work the cause
Brought me back to serving the law
Was no deterrent, more concerned with having room & board
And meanwhile this girls having my child
I'm digging the sound of daddy, but dad ain't got no gig steady
Pushing up in a broke chevy
Musical career I'm betting
That kid can't eat good intentions you'll need a plan b
Come in reality, over me like a stampede
Too late be a lawyer/doctor, cats dig your raps
But your music ain't popular
Life is so touch and go, bullethead Mr. Poe
One minute invincible, then skid row miserable
[Hook]
