Nineteen-seventy somethin', ***** I don't sweat the date My moms is late so I had to plan my escape Out the skins, in this world of fly girls Tanqueray and Hennessy until I cold hurl Ten months in this gut, What the **** I wish moms'd hurry up so I could get buck Wild, juvenile rippin' mics and **** New York New York, Ready for the likes of this, uh Then came the worst date, May 21st 2:19, that's when my momma water burst No spouse in the house so she rolled herself To the hospital, To see if she could get a little help Umbilical cord's wrapped around my neck I'm seein' my death and I ain't even took my first step I made it out, I'm bringin' mad joy The doctor looked and said, "He's gonna be a Bad Boy"
Now I'm thirteen, Smokin' blunts, makin' cream On the drug scene, **** a football team Riskin' ruptured spleens by the age of sixteen Hearin' the coach scream Ain't my lifetime dream, I mean I wanna blow up, Stack my dough up So school I didn't show up, It ****** my flow up Mom said that I should grow up and check myself Before I wreck myself, Disrespect myself Put the drugs on the shelf? Nah, couldn't see it Scarface, King of New York, I wanna be it Rap was secondary, Money was necessary Until I got incarcerated--kinda scary C74-Mark 8 set me straight Not able to move behind the great steel gate Time to contemplate, damn, Where did I fail? All the money I stacked was all the money for bail
Ninety-four, Now I explore new horizons Mama smile when she see me, That's surprisin' Honeys is tantalizin', They freak all night
Peep duckin' cops on the creep all night As I open my eyes and realizin' I changed Not the same deranged child Stuck up in the game And to my ****** livin' street life Learn to treat life to the best, Put stress to rest Still tote your vest man, ****** be trippin' In the streets without a gat? Nah, ***** you're slippin' If I'm pimpin on The F with **** on my breath Original hustler with the muffler on the Tec Respect to the Mac's and the Ac's To the freaks in the Jeeps, Lick shots to my peeps
