[Verse 1: Bo Deal]
As a youngin I was good, my momma worked 2 jobs to get us out the hood
My auntie used to keep me, she was gangsta like you should
And she would whip my a** every chance that she could
So I rebelled, started fighting back was the only f**ing key there
sh** ain't never good getting beat on by a female
I used to cry, go and feed my fish
I used to pray, telling god I can't live like this
My older cousins used to get me, showed me what the streets bout
Til they let a older n***a come and knock my teeth out
Damn, I ain't going started fighting back
I was on my own got a pocket knife I'm striking back
My momma found out and moved up north
That's when I got worse, met a bunch of project boys
So we started robbing n***as making project noise
We was vice lords living round all them boys
My daddy came around once tried to tell me I was f**ing up
I ain't seen your a** in 10 years homie don't f** with us
Told him to beat it like MJ
I'm in deep I ain't give a f** bout what him say
I'm in the streets, me and Valentine, BFN, Whiteboy
Lil One and ? roam through the hood all night boy
Work reach the D i was on the team, we got it in
Only n***as in the whole neighborhood that rep the field
But the Spanish folks tried to take they block back
That's when n***as started to drop, shots ?
We was riding, ? nothing
Every lick we hit we like f** work we buying guns
I ain't sell no dope, I robbed dope n***as
Sat back and scope n***as later on ? n***as
I caught a robbery and got probation, 90 days later shoot out, got caught with a bag
Now I'm in the joint waiting to get out
So I could do it better 5 star, ? Chief felt I could do whatever
I'm back down got a ugly background
But I gotta get paid, I got work and got down
Ten bands a day, you n***as hearing me? 8 months later I'm popped, drug conspiracy
Now I'm back off in a cell for pushing dope mane
8 years, decent exchange with Mr dope game
n***as saying they gone knock me off, I came home ain't a motherf**er touched this boss
I'm 6"4 but I got Fos whipping, when I came home them the n***as that rode with me
Now I got the whole city locked down
f** what a n***a say
A n***a to this f**ing day will k** you if you in the way
Let a n***a rap and write these rhymes
I'm getting legal money tell they all this life of mine
