LYRICS
Became a grown man too young these two eyes seen too much blood told a few lies mostly to the fuzz lived a couple lives this is my third one don't wanna live it like I'm on the run or romanticize struggle like it's fun trying to survive ain't no pretty poem on a bed of roses mostly soaking in my sweat, broken.
Searching for some secrets to shed some light on exactly why my brain is constantly concocting new reasons to cabbage patch off of the path after all the years we subtract the bad math and that
Thank Ma for my education, I don't thank god or the devil ever made it as a man.
Dammit, DIY bandit, codefendant, till the day I can't stand it.
Enter cameo, you didn't expect The code effigy causing the train wreck Giving people what I know they don't want I'm your patsy neophyte dilettante
Should have never seen the things I did Bodies shot in the street by the age of ten
Police had my ass beat, pepper sprayed me
Hell on earth, 95 mobb deep
Peace, quiet sleep, home street Riot fiends roam, hit a bip, rob, scheme, Catch a lick and get gone, spit it straight to the front of your face Eyes up, I'm not the one today
We were young once, childhood quickly left us Had to figure out tactics, how to live, how to make a bag, We were only kids.
