Lyrics
growing up, shit was never really easy damn,
my pops used to yell in my face for everything I did man,
I knew a lot of cats that had it harder than me,
like my boy josh and his stripper mom angie,
she was mad nice, always had a place to stay,
till she injected to much in herself one day,
I can only imagine how hard he must of taken it,
But I haven't spoken to him since that day and,
We used to joke around calling her "josh's mom the hoe",
Lookin back, that shit really ain't that funny no more tho,
My homie billy got locked up for killin some bums,
him and his friends beat em to death by a museum,
I remember looking at his picture in the news,
wondering what the hell he was thinkin to choose,
to do some dumb shit that would affect his whole life,
but at the time, thats the last thing to cross your mind,
jail cells are only good for repenting and findin god in yourself,
and crying at night, just wishing you could be held
a lot of cats go in and say they found jesus,
a lot of cats say shit like that just to please us,
a lot of cats do shit and don't think of the consequences,
They end up back in prison, behind wired fences.
Coming up, shit was never really hard,
stick to the skript, don't get caught off guard,
I knew a lot of cats that are now 6 feet deep,
worms crawling through their eyes as they sleep,
Life wouldn't be called a game, if there wasn't struggle,
put your past behind you, or it comes back to haunt ya,
My homie SG told me the words I live by today,
Be true to yourself homie, and always try to stay,
one step ahead of the pack, spit from the heart on the track,
and everything will fall into place, thats a fact,
toke the weed from the sack, flip the coke or the crack,
and keep the piece on the waist, thats a fact,
jail cells are only good for repenting and findin god in yourself,
and crying at night, just wishing you could be held,
a lot of cats go in and say they found jesus,
a lot of cats say shit like that just to please us,
a lot of cats do shit and don't think of the consequences,
They end up back in prison, behind wired fences.
