My home boy got life, gettin hard for me to look at em
Feelin like it's my fault, judge throw tha book at em
His momma call me son, his sista call me brotha

Super far from a sucka, he ain't neva tuck his tail
On the east of Atlanta givin these sucka niggas hell
Get caught go to jail, I would later make bail
Hit tha trap on tha same chic back to the mail
Get a rat, lay it down we was tossin em up
Any nigga talk shit we was boxin em up
Shoot dice, talk shit til the sunlight come
Get bored start shit, boy we so dumb
We be laughin on the phone bout the thangs we done
Askin the lord why he lock em down so young
I shoulda told Cuz chill, he'd prolly be free
Shoulda set an example cuz he was lookin up to me

Need to get back to school and try to clear my mind
