[00:34.16]I would like the girl behind me roll up a bad time thinkin'
[00:36.74]Mentally sinkin’, presently brinkin’
[00:38.83]Two decades and a half makin’ a path for mine to follow
[00:41.47]The world is hollow, yet it's full of crap prepare to gamble
[00:44.02]I give you a handful of chips and tips
[00:45.76]For what's to come, I cried a ton of tears
[00:47.27]Drunk a ton of beers, that's fun at first
[00:48.64]But learned to persevere throughout the years
[00:50.52]Kept my ears open, eyes scoping mouth locked
[00:52.22]Don't rock the boat if you can't swim
[00:54.84]Nobody may be there with the limb to lend

[01:26.22]He knew that it was mine still the sucker tried to steal it
[01:28.70]So I had to reveal it, through provin’
[01:30.78]That I am astonishing and fly
[01:32.46]And by just blinking my eye
[01:33.64]In a flash I flush out the face, layin' low-key
[01:36.58]Trained eyes locate to focus on the phony
[01:39.22]Mister sometime-homey, why he act like that
[01:41.27]I thought he had my back
[01:42.63]I thought he had our backs
[01:43.99]But it was him who I should've never trusted
[01:46.49]And not at least till he got his attitude adjusted
[01:49.22]Or mouth busted for acting all dusted, but bust this
[01:52.40]Now when I'm out I seek and thought out the whole scene

[02:15.73]Sometimes this world means everything to me
[02:18.24]The inside is lovely to these eyes I see
[02:20.86]And sometimes in my mind all I wanna do is cry
[02:23.27]Highly up-set but nothing drops from my eye
[02:25.88]Those drain out my skin cause I'm pissed from within
[02:28.67]I see a situation now and all I do is grin
[02:31.34]People think I'm high but I'm mentally travelling
[02:33.78]Aging is your times cause life's unraveling
[02:36.27]While I'm straddlin' walls up this ****in' mic
[02:39.24]I hate to be a pilot crashin' in a flight
[02:41.71]People need to know about this thing called life
[02:44.36]Cause if you see the light then life's alright
[02:47.22]So can you dig it?

[03:06.30]So he came to Californey on the microphony
[03:08.65]He was super bad and what not
[03:10.13]But he was the kinda fella to follow fads that was hot
[03:12.46]He became too fascinated with that gang related flavor
[03:15.29]That he modificated, rearranged his behavior
[03:18.13]He hooked up quick with the influential slang
[03:20.82]Gangsta-stroll, cornrolls; the whole shabbang
[03:23.36]Braggin' and boastin, boastin' and braggin
[03:25.87]How he mostly be hangin' with baby gees I was baggin'
[03:28.49]Like why you tryin' to ride up on the bandwagon
[03:31.25]Hopin' they'd hit him in the head, but he steady saggin'
[03:34.21]Like he a hog
[03:35.20]Creepin' through the smog
[03:36.39]Smokin' on some indo sippin' on a cup of O-Dog
[03:39.20]Like most who come to this West Coast society
[03:41.73]Try to be because they think it's fly to be a menace
[03:44.23]So what a relic way to end this
[03:46.35]Got rolled up when he was strolling
[03:48.09]On a Sunday at the Venice
[03:49.46]Niggas never listen they gotta learn their lesson
[03:52.12]The hard way I'm guessin' yessin'
