Thoughts From Da 3

I'm scared to tell you how I live cause I be criticized
I hate my city, kill with hatred, they be hypnotized
A couple M's in the mansion what I visualize
3-5 in the wood, it got me feeling right

Won't do the show if you ain't got that back end
Like Shawn Michaels, wanna kick it in the mansion
Yeah, I was broke, but that was way back then
He said it's hope, hollows in the mack ten
I remember we broke, we suffer, we came from the gutter
Never change on the cheddar cause you were my brother
They playing with you, then I'm slagging the cutter
We never met nip, but yeah we gon' hustle
Yea we came from the struggle
I felt pain in the struggle
Got gains from the struggle
Got game from the struggle

I'm scared to tell you how I live cause I be criticized
I hate my city, kill with hatred, they be hypnotized
A couple M's in the mansion what I visualize
3-5 in the wood, it got me feeling right

Looking at my son and I see a younger me
But deep down, I hope he ain't another me
I was a wild boy, Tarzan George of the jungle
But if I hit the trees, it was to take my mind off the struggle
Had to get it, even if I had to take it
I ain't have no path to follow so you know I had to make it
Mama working two jobs just to make ends meet
I ain't have no food in the fridge and couldn't get water up out the sink
We was dirt poor, dreamed of getting filthy rich
Started jugging, then I stuffed it in the mattress
Niggas thought I was lit because I had the challenger
But we was dodging every repo man that was after us
Back then, I used to share a dresser with the rats
Had to knock the droppings off before I picked something to wear
But nowadays, I really had that shit on
Used to borrow clothes from tip just so I ain't get picked on

I'm scared to tell you how I live cause I be criticized
I hate my city, kill with hatred, they be hypnotized
A couple M's in the mansion what I visualize
3-5 in the wood, it got me feeling right

And I see a younger me
He ain't another me
He ain't another me
