It all started like a new day
(like a new day, started like a new day)
a cold February Tuesday (yay-hay-hey-yea)
my wife left me on some fugazi (fugazi)
been in jail 352 days
went out of town on some other sh*t (town on some other sh*t, town on some other sh*t)
about to go n' cop a couple bricks (yayo)
the feds set us up what a b*tch
no I never said a word not a whisper (scratching)(whisper)
my codefendants been out on the streets (what up A)
puts money on my books every other week (ayye good lookin’ Mayne)
got me a lawyer cost 20 G’s
Roc, Zay and G been really holding it down for me (I love y’all for real for real Rest In Peace Roc)
(Chorus)
taking these charges like a taser (taking these charges like a tay like a taser)
losing my life behind the paper (loosin' my life behind the Mufukin' paper)
will Philip treat me like a stranger (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
little John Laying in a manger (yea that’s my baby boy)
we’re in Atlanta like some rock stars(lanta like some rock stars, lanta like some rock stars)
leanin' n’ Rockin' like there’s no tomorrow (lean wit' it rock wit' it AAAAAAAA!)
we at the Dub on the rooftop (on the roof top)
in Buckhead with some new broads (hey say? what’s your name again?)
been in the county now seventeen (county now seventeen, county now seventeen)
they’re dragging me trying to make my spirit weak (pshhhhh)
the DA hasn’t offered me a thing (maaann f*ck Cobb county and Saliba)
but I still got all my dreams (yea-hea-yea-eeyeaa)
(Chorus)
taking these charges like a taser (taking these charges like a tay like a taser)
losing my life behind the paper (loosin' my life behind the Mufukin' paper)
will Philip treat me like a stranger (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
little John Laying in a manger (yea that’s my baby boy)
