[00:48.17]Coming up I had it bad
[00:50.13]I never knew my dad

[00:59.89]And all I know is that they said he was the ladies man
[01:04.02]Momma kept pressing on
[01:06.05]Her boys kept her strong
[01:07.67]We didn’t need for much
[01:10.15]She did it all alone
[01:11.59]She kept her head up high
[01:13.91]Till the day she died
[01:15.94]Told me to never give up
[01:17.60]Do what I gotta, to survive
[01:21.04]I been uptown, played many games, hurt by many girls
[01:25.01]Been all around, looking for love, but no one to trust
[01:28.89]I been locked down with the big boys
[01:31.19]See I changed now
[01:33.55]The high school diploma made my momma proud

[02:15.81]They gave me a B and E, first degree robbery, criminal mischief
[02:20.82]Prosecution’s on my heels now
[02:23.14]I tried to straighting up too
[02:25.25]I got hit by deja vu
[02:27.41]A 9 to 5 couldn’t find it
[02:29.73]My only option was to block it
[02:31.72]I been shot at, stabbed
