| [00:11.240] |
|
| [00:13.630] |
Ohh (hey) |
| [00:15.040] |
I've been travelin on this road too long (too long) |
| [00:18.320] |
Just tryin find my way back home (back home) |
| [00:22.170] |

And Ohh.. (hey) |
| [00:29.080] |
I've been travelin on this road too long (too long) |
| [00:32.650] |
Just tryin find my way back home (back home) |
| [00:36.430] |
But the old me's dead and gone, |
| [00:39.130] |
Dead and Gone, dead and... |
| [00:41.790] |
|
| [00:42.410] |
Every had one of them days wish you would have stayed home, |
| [00:43.960] |
Run into a group of niggas who gettin their hate on, |
| [00:45.640] |
You walk by - they get wrong, |
| [00:47.560] |
You reply then shit get blown, |
| [00:49.340] |
Way out of proportion way bad discussion, |
| [00:51.200] |
Just you against them pick one then rush them, |
| [00:52.760] |
Figure you get jumped here thats next, |
| [00:54.400] |
They don't wanna stop there now they bustin, |
| [00:56.390] |
Now you gushin ambulance rushin, |
| [00:57.870] |
You to the hospital with a bad concusion, |
| [00:59.940] |
Plus you hit four times but it hit yo spine, |
| [01:01.630] |
Paralyzed waist down and ya wheelchair bound, |
| [01:03.450] |
Never mind that now you lucky to be alive, |
| [01:05.010] |
Just thinkin it all started fussin wit three guys, |
| [01:07.020] |
Nigga pride in the way but your pride is the way you can f**k |
| [01:09.200] |
around get shot down anyday, |
| [01:10.580] |
Niggas die everyday, |
| [01:11.510] |
All little bullshit, dope money, dice games, for their hood shit, |
| [01:14.340] |
Could this be cuz of hip-hop music, |
| [01:15.970] |
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it, |
| [01:17.750] |
Usually niggas don't know what to do when they back against the wall, |
| [01:20.290] |
So they just start shootin, |
| [01:21.360] |
For red or for blue or for blow I guess, |
| [01:22.950] |
From Bankhead at the old projects, |
| [01:24.790] |
No more stress now I'm straight, |
| [01:26.670] |
Now I get it now I take time to think |
| [01:29.390] |
before I make mistake just for my family stake, |
| [01:32.020] |
That part of me left yesterday |
| [01:33.740] |
The harder me is strong today, |
| [01:35.540] |
No regrets I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gon away, |
| [01:39.250] |
|
| [01:39.940] |

| [02:12.900] |
But you think about it when you out there trappin', |
| [02:14.620] |

| [02:16.420] |
Niggas start shit next thing we know we cappin, |
| [02:18.330] |
Get locked up then didn't even get mad, |
| [02:19.930] |
Now I think about that what a life I had, |
| [02:21.770] |
Most of that shit look back just laugh, |
| [02:23.470] |
Some shit still look back get sad, |
| [02:25.190] |
Thinkin my home boy still be around |
| [02:27.020] |
had I not hit the nigga in the mouth that time, |
| [02:28.880] |
I won that fight I lost that war, |
| [02:30.250] |
I could still see my nigga walkin out that door, |
| [02:32.380] |
Who would of thought I'd never see Philant no more, |
| [02:34.170] |
Got enough dead homies I don't want no more, |
| [02:35.910] |
Cuz a nigga his jump cost me more, |
| [02:37.710] |

| [02:39.450] |
Now think before I risk my life, |
| [02:41.230] |
Take them chances to get my stripes, |
| [02:43.040] |
A nigga put his hands on me alright, |
| [02:44.750] |
