You chose the dope gaaaane, my microphone pays
I'm still down with my homies from the hometown
Grew apart, had to part, went our own ways
But when you need a friend you can depend on me
So far away from the crazies with AK's
Sayin' we cousins, knowin' that we wasn't
I'm down to the E N D
I'd be no different than the other
But life makin' records ain't easy
No matter who the foe they must fall
I gotta take, my place or fall from grace
Back in the days we played practical jokes on
But like the old saying goes
Smiling face, to hide the trace of hate
In many ways we were paid in the old days
We both had dreams of being great
That's why I wrote this song, if you ever need me it's on
You got game now you run with no shame
And if you need, need anything at all
And though I been around clowning with the underground
I chose rappin' tracks to make stacks
I drop it all for y'all, if my homies call
I'm down for y'all, when my homies call
Trying to shake, the crates and fakes and snakes
The foolish way, the pace is quick and great
Well it's ninety one and I'm livin' kinda swell now
All through high school, girls by the dozens
It's fate, it wasn't my choice to make
Now you slang cane on the streets with no name
Word, if my homies call
To be great, I'm giving it all it takes
But his deferred and blurred and changed in shaped
Call, if you need my assistance there'll be no resistance
H to the O to the M to the I to the E
Trying to survive in the life of a young godfather
But now, I don't wanna down my homie
I'll be there in an instant
No matter how low you go you're not lowly
'Cause it's a fall in no time at all
But I guess that the streets is harder
Striving, working nine to five with no health care
In fact I travel the map with raps that spray cats
My homies is making it elsewhere
Who am I to judge another brother, only on his cover?
It was plain that your aim was mo' cane
Times goes on and everybody grows
But I hear that you're going through some hell pal
And I, hear that you made a few enemies
It's a shame, you chose the dope game
But my homie would never do me wrong
Everybody smoked with they locs and the yolks on
It ain't what I expected it's hectic it's sleazy
