got a nigga sheddin' tears, reminiscin' on my past fears 'Cause shit was for me last year It appears I've been marked for death, my heartless breath The underlyin' of my arrest, my life is stressed And no forever weary, my eyes stay teary For all the brothers that are buried in the Shit is scary, how black on black crime But at unnecessary, I'm gettin' worried Teardrops and closed caskets, the three strikes law is And certain death for us, bastards
What can we do when arrested, but open fire? Life in the pen ain't for me, 'cause I'd die But cry through your despair I wonder if the Lord still cares, for us niggaz on And who if we survive The only time notice a nigga is when he's clutchin' on a four five My ain't the same all these little babies goin' crazy And they sufferin' in the game and I swear like a trap But I given up on the hood, it's all good when I go back Hoes show me love, niggaz give me Forever 'cause it don't stop on my block
