Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Group homes and institutions, prepare my ass for jail
I've got to do the right thing for shorty
One deep went to gids startin' for kicks
To get more cream than I'd ever seen in a dream
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
To make a father leave his first kid at 7 doin' my first bid?
I'm ready for the world or at least I thought I was
They put me in a situation forcin' me to be a man
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
In the morning before I get fly
If I'm strong enough I'll live long enough to see my kids
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Actions become bolder heart got colder
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
Chip on my shoulder that I dared a to touch
Like damn look how that rock got him
Didn't keep my hair cut or give a how I dressed
Who they is and this is yo song
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
And much respect to all my that kept it real
Open like a window no more Indo look at a video
And I never gave a about much but my dog
And by all means I will be living high off the hog
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
And to my boo who stuck with a through
Believe me it could be done somethin's got to give
I been through mad different phases like Masons
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
Going too fast it wouldn't last but yo I couldn't tell
This is from the heart baby, don't get it twisted
Used to get high just to get by used to have
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
That's my only, I had offered my last
That ain't the half get's worse as I get older
Sit back and look at what it took for me to get there
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
Catchin' vicks throwin' bricks gettin by bein' slick
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Strapped with mad greed and a heart that doesn't bleed
It's got to change 'coz I've got a son
I ate something a couple of forties made me hate somethin'
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Damn, was it my fault, somethin' I did
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
To find my way and now I know that happy days are not far away
Wanna make records but I'm fuckin' up
Like this kept a nigga with a bloody knife
Be strong kept a nigga from doin' wrong
She got on some fly shit till I split
So I get back lookin' type slick again
Than bids I know because I been there now I'm in there
3 years later showing signs of stress
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
Nothin' but love for those that know how it feel
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
Fake jump back on my again
Just another little, headed nowhere fast
That doesn't need much to succeed
Back on the scene at 14 with a scheme
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
Doing something more constructive with they time
I did some now I'm ready to take something
Well, that's to find meaning in the suffering
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Didn't need a click 'coz I scared a that much
For thinking about how short I was
And said that I'ma be that seed
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Can't get up, I gots to get up
I'm possessed by the darker side livin' the cruddy life
Wasn't long before I hit rock bottom
When I was just learnin' to stand without a helpin' hand
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Baggin' when I caught a buzz
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I gots to get up
And that means no more getting high drinking forties
Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up
First came the, the drama with my mama
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
All the bullshit you'll get yours because it's due
Ay yo I'm slippin' I'm fallin' I can't get up
Sayin' to myself that could've been yo nigga on the TV
