[00:02.14] Woo! Uhh, uhh
[00:04.31]
[00:05.19] It's "The Gift & the Curse"
[00:06.32]
[00:08.52] Uhh, uhh yea
[00:11.42] First they love me then they hate me
[00:12.87] then they love me again
[00:13.96]
[00:15.45] .. they love me again
[00:16.46]
[00:17.09] Let's take a trip down.. I gotcha
[00:21.81]
[00:22.83] Let's take a trip down memory
[00:24.05]
[00:24.88] lane at the cemetery
[00:26.02] Rain grey skies, seems at the end of every
[00:29.21] young black life is this line, "Damn - him already
[00:32.20] 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
[00:39.93] 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
[00:48.34]
[00:48.92] 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
[00:57.47]
[00:58.17] Poor Isis, that's his momma name
[00:59.88] Momma ain't strong enough to raise
[01:01.62] no boy, what's his father name
[01:03.59] Shorty never knew him
[01:04.84] though he had his blood in him
[01:06.26] Hot temper, momma said he act
[01:08.05] just like her husband
[01:09.17] Daddy never ****ed with him
[01:10.68] so the streets raised him
[01:12.02] Isis blaming herself
[01:12.83] she wish she could've saved him
[01:14.28]
[01:14.80] Damn near impossible, only men can raise men
[01:17.54] He was his own man
[01:18.58] not even him can save him
[01:20.27] He put his faith in a
[01:21.48] thirty-eight in his waist
[01:22.85] But when you live by
[01:24.11] the gun you die by the same fate
[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
[02:06.33] 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
[02:28.99]
[02:29.53] But I-sis, like this, Broadway life
[02:31.57] She loved the Gucci sneakers
[02:33.49] the red green and whites
[02:35.05] 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
[02:40.46]
[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
[02:47.79] 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 light-skinned 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 thirty-eight 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 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
[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
