[03:28.00]Fact that I can't get by with my nine to
[03:37.80]Dad had bloody heavy hands, used them on me
[03:40.50]This is my life and these times are so hard
[00:17.78]She got killed, bad man, dad stiffed in a scam
[00:19.96]Grew up in the system, bounced, couple homes
[03:43.30]This woman Mary, gifted me hand-me-down clothes
[00:00.00]69 00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:50,000 See dishonor caught up between bein' a father and a prima-donna
[00:25.20]Who had 100 pounds on me called me "Brittle Bones Nicky"
[00:27.42]A target aimed straight at my face
[03:52.50]Big house of kids, cred is cake
[00:30.84]Rounded up a couple bucks, got it freshly baked
[04:01.20]Sat down to dinner
[00:00.00]Put it right in his face
[00:34.70]Right in his fuckin' face (in his face)
[04:11.00]You’re not gonna push me around
[04:15.00]You can’t get me down, down, down (down!)
[04:20.70]You only get one shot, do
[00:49.58]You can’t get me down, not miss your chance to blow
[01:07.62]Bounce ahead a couple years, king of my peers
[01:09.62]We biked the block, cheersin’ pretty girls beers 00:04:23,700 --> 00:04:26,100 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better
[01:11.56]Did alright for myself, petty thefts I pulled
[01:13.16]I dropped outta school, built a circle of bulls
[04:29.10]Needing more money, covered head to toe
[00:00.00]Snuck up, sucker, took his stash, and drove
[01:18.90]The cash stashed, it was pouring in
[00:00.00]Bulk of it up my nose 85 00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:38,700
[01:22.50]How dumb I was, twenty-one
[01:24.44]And way out of control
[04:44.50]The cops kicked down the door
[01:29.90]Said "that’s one way to go down"
[01:31.64]Knew I was hard as rock
[01:33.48]Knew-I-was-hard-as-rock (hard as rock)
[01:37.52]You’re not gonna push me around
[01:40.96]You can’t get me down, down, down (down!)
[01:44.82]You’re not gonna push me around (no!)
[01:48.64]You can’t get me down, down, down (down!)
[01:52.32]Bars, new world, who could I trust?
[01:53.84]Killers were nice, smugglers were rough
[01:55.84]Met a man named Ben, quite sharp & witty
[01:57.66]Gave me books about money & cities
[01:59.66]Taught me ropes, only years coulda gained
[02:01.52]Looked out for each other, M.O’s the same
[02:03.12]That night I heard Ben, turning 50 in May
[02:05.14]Yellin’ so loud, two decades we aged
[02:06...........
