On Your Own (Outro)

Once upon a time, just a kid on that block
Me and Spyda outside, dirty shoes, dirty socks
We was walkin' up top, seen some niggas from the block
We was 15 deep, then got stopped by the cops
And they had us on the curb, asked us what's the word
Yeah we heard yall was fightin', left a nigga, he was slurred, left a nigga in the dirt
Word of mouth is how they heard it first
We might just get attempt for tryin' to put a nigga on a shirt

Then they asked us for the video
Seat Pleasant Police, bring no peace, they on dick, but that's known in our city tho
They say we goin' to jail, but they know that we ain't fear em tho
Cause they ain't got no evidence, we act like we ain't hear em tho
It's just another day up top, me and Spyda walkin' to the store
Police harassin' us, but they know they had to let us go
They say they got our names, but they cap cause they just met us though
When all that shit had happened, man, I swear that I was 12 years old

And keep your mouth closed, you won't take a L
I got tested as a youngin', so they know that I won't never tell
I grew up with some uncles, but my father I ain't know him well
My mother only child, I picked myself up when I tripped and fell
Had to learn all the do's and the don'ts from some older males
Back then, it wasn't no guns, beatin' niggas like we Holyfield
Man, I was only 12, with older niggas, they ain't mold us well
Products of our environment, man I swear they wanted us to fail

I'm proud of you, you did it on your own
You tryna do better so you know you had the right your wrongs
And you ain't think that it would take this long
But they ain't know you did it on your own

They ain't know you did it on your own
But they ain't know you did it on your own
They ain't know you did it on your own
But they ain't know you did it on your own

Once upon a time, just a kid on that block
Me and Spyda outside, dirty shoes, dirty socks
We was walkin' up top, seen some niggas from the block
We was 15 deep, then got stopped by the cops
And they had us on the curb, asked us what's the word
Yeah we heard yall was fightin', left a nigga, he was slurred, left a nigga in the dirt
Word of mouth is how they heard it first
We might just get attempt for tryin' to put a nigga on a shirt
