[00:57.60]Yeah, I was on that corner, tryna get my coins up
[01:01.00]
[01:01.30]Coppers run up on us and we turn to Jackie Joyner
[01:04.20]White man kill a black man, they never report us
[01:07.60]Black man kill a white man, they gon' start a war up
[01:10.70]Mama she was sour, sippin' on the Absolut
[01:13.80]Young niggas brainwashed, they just wanna rap and hoop
[01:17.00]Could've been a lawyer until they came and shackled you
[01:20.20]Felons on your records so them jobs ain't gettin' back at you
[01:23.30]Them kids ain't eat yet, so you can't even sleep yet
[01:26.40]That's the only thing we ever saw, we repeat that
[01:29.70]They was playing ball, fouled him hard, said I'd be back
[01:32.70]Broad day, threw his life away, soon as he clapped
[01:36.00]Gave that boy a life sentence, made his momma relapse
[01:39.10]Damn, they don't understand

[01:54.90]Told my young nigga, "You the man," I said
[01:58.20]You don't wanna end up like my man Ahmed

[02:08.40]Caught up in the system, visit from his sister
[02:11.20]Talkin' 'bout all these niggas, how they ain't even with him
[02:14.20]Said they would ride or die, but it ain't even in 'em
[02:17.50]Always postin' on the 'Gram, but hey ain't sendin' pictures
[02:20.60]Never answer when you call, but answer for them bitches
[02:23.70]Got you thinking twice, damn I should've been a witness
[02:26.80]Dismantle my business, just telling my story
[02:29.90]All guns, no glory, been going on before me
[02:33.10]We slaves in the '40s, still slaves in the present
[02:36.30]No toys for Christmas, ain't get us no presents
[02:39.50]Only made us evil, made us hungry, made us desperate
[02:42.60]Youngin' in the 9th grade, he got a Smith and Wesson
[02:45.90]Grew up with the goons, now he need protection
[02:49.00]He dropped outta school, then he got arrested
[02:52.20]Lord with a blessing, I just hope he learned his lesson
[02:55.10]They told us, if we go to jail, we would be respected
[02:58.30]They told us, if we make a sale, we would run a check in
