And all my I thought Bill Clinton ran the country Until I found out Gates had all the money And the starting east and west coast wars I'm the south, where they prejudice on us all

The only way to avoid stress is to get By drinking Hennessey but I but I can't get too I gotta keep my eyes on my enemies I've seen harder times, but there gonna be some days
Penitentiary close, but you know ain't that far away Before I die I'm trying to the whole world feel our people scared to stand there
The way we express ourself, they think we all some killers But look into the eyes of a ghetto child influenced by the Go to sleep to gunshots, wake up from the sirens of the See now my life ain't been the same nigga, as a thug
If I had to draw a picture of my I have to my picture in blood Closest died, before he die little cousin told me this Get you something 'cause Packed of niggas who had dreams to be rich
So keep your head up, to all my children it was hard To tell my family one day I was grow up to make millions When I told them, they seemed to at my so called dream I like to when I came home from jail
When I was told best turned into a fiend I ain't gonna lie, my conscience ain't clear, I close my eyes Of course you realize, God forgive me, I'm just trying to survive
They cut welfare and health care, that shit gotta I got a note, my auntie having a baby Congratulations, she on
