A educated brother;
Didn't have no money for college,

To commit the perfect treason.

Even had my cousin locked down,
A one- way seat, to Milledgeville.

Slow mo', custom funk fingerprinted, to carry
Feelin' stuck with the art that my skin carries,
scary.

If I ever had to plot again,
Gidgets to pidgits, moves to Philly
Nothin' else to prove,

Twenty G's or better,
the whole neighborhood tanked up.

Buddha say, the Bloods are strictly
They besieged, on the beats,
Goodie Mo- B, run the creeps.

Y'all can have the streets,

asphault caught many suckers.
Slippin on wet floors,
we puttin' out the signs.

On krokers, C- I, T- Y, such a pity.
G
Bein' suckled dry, like a newborn,
Bm
On his momma's titty before I retired,
True to cellulite with big room
Em
mesquite on the porch.
Poundin', like cartoon Ennis,
Through the Sunday down,
Crenshaw sparkin'.
Bm
Zoned out, off the ink, for life.
G
Goin' through time and metal detectors,
I can't take my weapon,
Em
And I can't be no dope dealer.

'Cause they be done put a hit out on a n****, plus
With them keys, locked in the fo'- do'.

Backseat drivers havin'
out- of- body experiences.

This most loved invention,
G
my consciousness, is an ex tension
Of Him, yet I'm flesh and bone
with a mind of my own.
Em
To dig deeper than the surface,
whether I learn
G
From your upcomings or your downfalls,
we all have individual purpose.
G
how the streets do the majority of raising,
Of children who end up dead before
hearing what you said.
so all I can write about is what I had.
G
Interpretations of life, good and bad,
with a pen and pad.
Bm
It seems like abortion,
when I just write a small portion.
G
It's either crumpled up or torn,
F
without lettin' the thought be born.

and somebody overstood.
