| This what I enjoy doin' best |

| Ya nah’m sayin'? |
| Shay, turn me the fuck up, man |
| Let me hear myself |
| Let me hear this music |
| Nah’m sayin'? (Uh) |

| Let’s go (Let's go) |

| Right, yo |
| It’s that live or die |
| Uh, yo, uh |
| Dear mama |
| Know you wish we were home but we gon' |
| Your two sons |
| I got caught with the chrome, we was wrong |
| It was hard, it was cold |
| It was bad, we was bold |
| Don’t worry |
| 'Fore you know it we be back on parole |
| And it is what it is |
| Gotta go, got a bid |
| We just mad 'cause we can’t be |
| There for the kids |
| And it hurts me to think when they hungry or thirsty |
| Hope God reimburse me with mercy |
| My mama had birthed me |
| But the streets grabbed me from my nursery |
| They bathed me and burped me, they encouraged me |
| All they did was work me, desert me |
| Leave me then jerk me |
| Got charges from Washington DC to Jersey |
| You heard me? |
| Never ran, mama did the best she can |
| Two sons in the can? Somethin' she never planned |
| I gotta go back home, gotta go and make sure that crack gone |
| Knowin' that I’m my family backbone |
| Pop’s need money, the kids need money |
| My aunts need money, my mom’s need money |
| Shit, they all need money and they call me for money |
| And I go through the check to make sure you correct |
| Ma, you know you the best and I love you to death |
| I don’t do what you expect but I’ma do my best |
| Tryna make it through the mess for my pop’s left |
| Who did it effect: me or you? |
| But you was really stressed |
| Me? I was in the projects, Ruger’s by the sweats |
| Gettin' checks, tryin' move us to a new address |
| Shit, I feel like what I do is not a threat |
| I can’t wear these shoes to school, it’s ruinin' my rep |
| I regret leavin', bein' gone for them weeks |
| Not callin' at least but your boy in the streets |
| Used to play with toys now I toy with the heat |
| I’m even paranoid when I’m sleep |
| Please let me speak |
| Speak to my family |
| Please understand me |
| I only got what the streets hand me |
| I gotta keep the heat 'cause the heat come in handy |
| Cats in the streets want to blam me |
| Please let me speak |
| Please, money, keys |
| Cars, trees, that’s all I really need |
| I ask for things I don’t need |
| Is it hunger or is it greed? |
| Please, let me speak |
| Uh (Uh-uh-uh) |
