Tallahassee Days
[Intro]
1993
Southside
Orange Ave
Southcity
Tallahassee Florida
I'm take ya'll back to the yellow mustang with no license
With that 38 under the seat
What you know? Yo
[Verse]
Whoever said life is beautiful lied, this shit is hell
I've seen too many funerals, too many of my niggas locked in cells
Nobody ever put me on life was like this
I'm 20 years old and my whole life's a crisis
No way out and I mean that when I say that
Runnin' round from place to place like a stray cat
I don't own nothing, don't hold nothing
I'm growin up with nothing to show for all my hustlin', still strugglin'
And a job is a joke, they ain't hirin'
The only free ride I get is one with a siren
So what other choice do I have?
I got niggas on the ave pushin slabs that a break me off a Porche and a half
So I can stand on my own two
Be able to have what I need so I can do what I want to
I wish I woulda had a career
'Cause through the years my mother stressed taking care of self but I ain't here
I was caught up, sippin on Coors, smokin Newports shorts
In and out of court without a single thought
But these days I'm out bout to Loc
Whether I make a record or serve dope, I refuse to keep bein broke
'Cause times are getting rougher by the second
As long as I come up, who give a fuck about the method
It's a kill or be killed kind of a theory that's in me
So when I die, believe I'm taking somebody with me
If I'm wrong, than I rather be wrong than right
45 calibre chrome and it's on tonight, nigga
That's how I'm livin, low life, runin licks
Taking big risks, tryna get my motherfuckin flow right
Cause without loot it's useless, my life as a youth was fruitless
That's why nowadays I'm ruthless
Plus I got a lady in my life
That one day just may be my wife if I can deal with this crazy strife
I put love in the air to show that I care for her
Let her know I always be there for her
But right now the type of life I live
Can't afford no wife and kid, I gotta fight for my right to live
So I cock my hat low
Snatchin up pocket books and float 'cause I'm a thug and that's all I know
Whatever it take to make the steps, I'm ready to take the steps
Whoever got papes better break theyself
