[00:21.81]
[00:22.83]	Let's take a trip down memory
[00:24.05]
[00:24.88]	Lane at the cemetery
[00:26.01]	Rain grey skies seems at the end of every
[00:29.21]	Young black life is this line "Damn - him already
[00:32.19]	Such a good kid " got us pouring Henn' already
[00:34.98]	Liquor to the curb for my niggas up above
[00:37.30]	When it cracks through the pavement
[00:38.92]	That's my way of sendin love
[00:39.92]	So give Big a hug tell Aa-liyah I said hi
[00:43.25]	'Til the next time I see her on the other side
[00:45.44]
[00:45.99]	He was just some thug that caught some slugs
[00:48.33]
[00:48.91]	And we loved him cause in him we saw some of us
[00:51.87]	He walked like us talked like us
[00:54.00]
[00:54.63]	His back against the wall
[00:55.85]	Nigga fought like us - damn
[00:57.46]
[00:58.16]	Poor Isis that's his momma name
[00:59.88]	Momma ain't strong enough to raise
[01:01.61]	No boy what's his father name
[01:03.59]	Shorty never knew him
[01:04.83]	Though he had his blood in him
[01:06.26]	Hot temper momma said he act
[01:08.05]	Just like her husband
[01:09.16]	Daddy never f**ked with him
[01:10.68]	So the streets raised him
[01:12.01]	Isis blaming herself
[01:12.83]	She wish she could've saved him
[01:14.28]
[01:14.79]	Damn near impossible only men can raise men
[01:17.54]	He was his own man
[01:18.57]	Not even him can save him
[01:20.26]	He put his faith in a
[01:21.47]	Thirty-eight in his waist
[01:22.85]	But when you live by
[01:24.10]	The gun you die by the same fate
[01:25.80]	End up dead before thirty-eight and umm
[01:28.81]	That's the life of us raised
[01:30.30]	By winter it's a cold world
[01:32.33]	Old girl turned to coke
[01:33.52]	Tried to smoke her pain away
[01:35.05]	Isis life just ended on that rainy day
[01:37.92]	When she got the news her boy
[01:39.35]	Body could be viewed
[01:40.32]	Down at the City Morgue
[01:41.58]	Opened the drawer saw him nude
[01:43.26]	Her addiction grew prescription drugs shift and brew
[01:47.10]	Angel dust dipped in WOO
[01:49.24]	She slipped into her own fantasy world
[01:51.71]
[01:52.28]	Had herself pregnant by a different dude
[01:54.75]	But reality bites and this is her life
[01:57.79]	He wasn't really her husband
[01:59.44]	Though he called her wife
[02:00.67]	It was just this night when moon was full
[02:03.61]	And the stars were just right
[02:05.11]	And the dress was real tight
[02:06.32]	Had her sounding like Lisa Lisa
[02:08.17]	I wonder if I take you home
[02:09.51]	Will you still love me after this night
[02:11.54]
[02:12.51]	Mike was the hardhead from the around the way
[02:14.83]	That she wanted all her life
[02:16.49]	Shit she wanted all the hype
[02:18.10]	Used to hold on tight
[02:19.38]	When he wheelied on the bike
[02:20.63]	He was a Willie all her life
[02:22.00]	He wasn't really the one to like
[02:23.44]	It was a dude named Shy who
[02:25.22]	Would really treat her right
[02:26.40]	He wanted to run to the country
[02:27.75]	To escape the city life
[02:28.98]
[02:29.52]	But I-sis like this Broadway life
[02:31.57]	She loved the Gucci sneakers
[02:33.49]	The red green and whites
[02:35.04]	Hangin out the window when
[02:36.46]	She first seen him fight
[02:37.96]	She was so turned on that
[02:39.40]	She had to shower twice
[02:40.45]
[02:40.98]	How ironic it would be some fight that
[02:43.79]	Turned into a homicide
[02:45.16]	That'll alter their life
[02:46.57]	See Mike at thirty-two was
[02:47.79]	Still on the scene
[02:49.43]	Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice
[02:51.67]
[02:52.25]	Sure he saw him as an infant
[02:53.87]	But he dissed on him like
[02:55.33]	"If that was my son he would look much different
[02:58.06]	See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark
[03:00.77]	So it's momma's baby; poppa's maybe
[03:03.08]
[03:03.68]	Mike was still crazy out there running
[03:05.59]	The streets (f**k niggas want )
[03:06.68]	Had his old reliable
[03:07.68]	With thirty-eight gun in his reach
[03:09.35]	It's been fourteen years
[03:10.68]	Him and Isis ain't speak
[03:12.16]	He running around like life's a peach 'til one day
[03:15.18]	He approached this thug that had a mean mug
[03:17.60]
[03:18.22]	And it looked so familiar
[03:19.67]	That he called him "Young Cuz"
[03:20.69]	Told him get off the strip
[03:22.30]	But the boy ain't budge (f**k you)
[03:23.94]	Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub
[03:26.62]	He clearly had the drop
[03:28.13]	But the boy just paused (hold up)
[03:29.38]	There was somethin in this man's
[03:30.95]	Face he knew he seen before
[03:32.30]	It's like lookin in the mirror
[03:33.74]	Seeing hisself more mature
[03:34.87]
[03:35.41]	And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord
[03:38.23]	You know what they say about he
[03:39.93]	Who hesitates in war
[03:41.21]	(What's that ) He who hesitates is lost
[03:43.63]	He can't explain what he saw before
[03:45.51]	His picture went blank
[03:46.48]	The old man didn't think he
[03:47.94]	Just followed his instinct
[03:49.35]
[03:49.91]	Six shots into his kid out of the gun
[03:52.58]	Niggas be a father you're Killing your son
[03:55.40]	Six shots into his kid out of the gun
[03:58.52]	Niggas be a father you Killing your sons

[03:39.93]	Who hesitates in war
[03:41.21]	What' s that He who hesitates is lost
[03:43.63]	He can' t explain what he saw before
[03:45.51]	His picture went blank
[03:46.48]	The old man didn' t think he
[03:47.94]	Just followed his instinct
[03:49.35]
[03:49.91]	Six shots into his kid out of the gun
[03:52.58]	Niggas be a father you' re Killing your son
[03:55.40]	Six shots into his kid out of the gun
[03:58.52]	Niggas be a father you Killing your sons
