growing up as a young buck, there wasn't too much
that i could touch and i was in a rush to get a taste of
the good life and people told me i was a waste of a
good life and i would not escape living the hood life
but yo, life is hell and that that's grown to be expected
the only way to cope with the pain is to accept it times is
hectic, we grow up quick endure the hardships and watch
our skin grow thick in turn you gotta learn my heads as
hard as a brick, so can't nobody ever tell me shit and
that's the truth as youth i hated all of you with a passion
those who never stood in my shoes would be laughing
and cracking jokes while their two folks raked in the
dough x-mas 86' niggas had nintendo word is bond, i ain't
have shiti had pretendo, and at show and tell i ain't have
shit to show this goes out to those who thought shit was sweet
ETC etown concrete and yo, niggas wanna be down
w/ me word is bond we taking over son, guaranteed
all ya'll niggas fake ya'll niggas act too phony 2 years ago
you didn't even want to know me but now look at you,
you copy my style you're lucky enough i let you still be
around to play your weak shows in you weak ass town
we straight up beefing, when you see me i see you peeking
you just mad cause' my team rose while you were sleeping
center stage, took your limelight mad now you heated
we're taking all your fans i guarantee it
