| [01:08.05] | just like her husband |
| [01:09.17] | Daddy never ****ed with him |
| [01:10.68] | so the streets raised him |
| [01:12.02] | Isis blaming herself |

| [01:25.81] | End up, dead before thirty-eight and umm |
| [01:28.82] | That's the life of us raised |
| [01:30.31] | by winter, it's a cold world |
| [01:32.33] | Old girl turned to coke |
| [01:33.53] | 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 |
| [01:39.36] | 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 |
| [01:51.72] | |
| [01:52.29] | 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 |
| [02:03.62] | And the stars were just right |
| [02:05.11] | and the dress was real tight |

| [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 |

| [02:27.75] | to escape the city life |
| [02:28.99] | |

| [02:39.40] | she had to shower twice |
| [02:40.46] | |
| [02:40.98] | How ironic it would, be some fight that |
| [02:43.79] | turned into a homicide |
| [02:45.17] | that'll alter their life |
| [02:46.57] | See Mike at thirty-two was |

| [02:49.44] | Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice |
| [02:51.67] | |
| [02:52.26] | Sure he saw him as an infant |
| [02:53.88] | but he dissed on him like |
| [02:55.34] | "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 |
| [03:03.09] | |

| [03:06.69] | Had his old reliable |

| [03:19.68] | that he called him "Young Cuz" |
| [03:20.70] | Told him, get off the strip |
| [03:22.30] | but the boy ain't budge (**** you) |
| [03:23.94] | Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub |
| [03:26.62] | He clearly had the drop |
| [03:28.14] | but the boy just paused (hold up) |
| [03:29.39] | There was somethin in this man's |
| [03:30.95] | face he knew he seen before |
| [03:32.31] | It's like, lookin in the mirror |
| [03:33.74] | seeing hisself more mature |
| [03:34.88] | |
| [03:35.42] | And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord |
| [03:38.24] | You know what they say about he |
| [03:39.94] | 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 |
| [03:46.49] | The old man didn't think he |
| [03:47.95] | just followed his instinct |
| [03:49.36] | |
| [03:49.92] | Six shots into his kid, out of the gun |

| [02:29.53] | But Isis, like this, Broadway life |
| [02:31.57] | She loved the Gucci sneakers |
| [02:33.49] | the red green and whites |

| [02:47.79] | still on the scene |
| [02:49.44] | Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice |
| [02:51.67] | |
| [02:52.26] | Sure he saw him as an infant |
| [02:53.88] | but he dissed on him like |
| [02:55.34] | " If that was my son, he would look much different |
| [02:58.06] | See I' m lightskinned and that baby there' s dark |
| [03:00.77] | so it' s, momma' s baby poppa' s maybe |
| [03:03.09] | |
| [03:03.69] | Mike was still crazy out there running |
| [03:05.60] | the streets niggas want? |
| [03:06.69] | Had his old reliable |
| [03:07.69] | with thirtyeight gun in his reach |
| [03:09.35] | It' s been fourteen years |
| [03:10.69] | 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 |
| [03:17.61] | |
| [03:18.22] | And it looked so familiar |
| [03:19.68] | that he called him " Young Cuz" |
| [03:20.70] | Told him, get off the strip |
| [03:22.30] | but the boy ain' t budge you |
| [03:23.94] | Instead he pulled out a newer thirtyeight snub |
| [03:26.62] | He clearly had the drop |
| [03:28.14] | but the boy just paused hold up |
| [03:29.39] | There was somethin in this man' s |
| [03:30.95] | face he knew he seen before |
| [03:32.31] | It' s like, lookin in the mirror |
| [03:33.74] | seeing hisself more mature |
| [03:34.88] | |
| [03:35.42] | And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord |
| [03:38.24] | You know what they say about he |
| [03:39.94] | 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 |
| [03:46.49] | The old man didn' t think he |
| [03:47.95] | just followed his instinct |
| [03:49.36] | |
| [03:49.92] | 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 |
| [03:58.53] | Niggas be a father, you Killing your sons |
