Eric was fly, shit, I used to steal his gear
I was the baby boy, I could do no wrong
Puffin' on L's, drinkin' pink champelle
Marcy raised me and whether right or wrong
I was brought up in pain, y'all can't touch me
Kitchen table, that's where I honed my skills
Loves you to death won't let no trouble come your way
Mickey fed me and he dressed me
Uhh, uhh, uhh, feel me now, listen
Streets gave me all I write in the song
Jaz made me believe the shit was real
Vigs fucked with a nigga, whassup, ha?
Mickey cleaned my ears and he shampooed my hair
Beans I ain't tryin' to change you
Valencia's boyfriend Vovo had me makin' moves
Birth of my first nephew, time to slow it down
Money pourin' in, clientele growin' now
Banana puddin', what's in the hood then
Bleek you're still with me, nigga what did I say?
Tone, Mike 'Zo and them niggaz, V.A.'s locked
Grandma dressed me, plus she fed me
Police pursued me, chased cuffed and subdued me
Followed by three more boys and then a baby girl
The time is comin' you one hit away
Hootie babysitted, changed my diapers
Momma raised me, pop I miss you
Clark sought me out, Dame believed
Momma loved me, pop left me
October 21st, Lavelle came to the world
Primo laced me, Ski did too
And your son too, there's nothin' I won't do
Tell your moms I'm there for her and Tiembra
East Trenton grew me, had me skippin' school
And live in a movie, not livin' by rules
Just give you some game to make the transition
[Unverified] high hated the fact I put rap to the back
Labels turned me down, couldn't foresee
Right, right, right, right
Ty rolled with a nigga, V.A. spot
Unless you was me, how could you judge me?
Momma loved me, T.T. uncle Jay
Reasonable doubt, classic, shoulda went triple
God help me forgive him I got some issues
Talked to me rudely, 'cause I'm young rich and I'm black
New rap patrollin' the city, follow my crews
Eric fought me, made me tougher
Yeah it's goin past fast, let's move along
Momma loved me, pop left me
Love you for that my nigga no matter what brah
Oh, can't forget my man down in Maryland
He's gone 'til November, how can I not remember?
Gil introduced me to the game that changed my life up
