I can't adjust to this new way of livin
I've always been a product of the street, crime drivin
I came up under older n***as up to no good
What I don't know, you was nuthin in your own hood
Baggin up Manilla envelopes of weed
Likin bag after bag, until it made my lips bleed
You want your sh**, slide your money under the door
And if you try somethin funny, you get wet up wit the 4-4
I used to be on 4 corners bustin all nights
To the sun up, not afraid to hold my gun up
Started sniffin bags of Brown Smurf
Dennis "the" Mennace
Stickin n***az, now just let me finish
5 years later, i'm trapped up in this game sh**
Faces change, but it's really all the same sh**
These young Boston Ma**. n***az taught a city yo
Eight floor, Superior Court, they lockin n***az up
I heard the soundz form the steel door slamin
I heard the soundz of my n***a Tee's gun jamin
My n***a Rock, Damn near died up in my lap
And should'nt nobody have to go through that
I'm FED investigated, got drama in the streets
I'm doin d**, and tryin to rap and f** beats
Every other day be like runin from the jake
Don't wanna see my dog like that, outta way
It's gettin so, I can't even shed tears
Forget all that, let's talk about these last 5 years
I never took for granted why i'm still breathin
A family is for somethin, but I don't know the reason
I survived through all the agony and pain
Of years pa**, dodgin d**h when you call my name
It's over dog, it's a new time, new era
Almost got 15 years for 3 letters
It's f**ed up, the FED's got you snitchin on a ho
No stay of execution, cause n***az ain't comin home
I lost about 100 n***az to these streets
My lifestyle's changed, but i still hold heat
I'd rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6
Colect calls, n***az be sendin me flix
I'm older now so that means i'm much wiser
Stay 1 step ahead of the game, my pops is liver
He always said grave don't have no fear
He always told me hey don't trust no b**h
He said make sure you take care of your moms
And most important of all, hey don't be no snitch
These are the words that i live by
That's why i'm still here
After 15...
