[Verse 1]

They gave my man 18 years

For a crime he ain’t commit, that shit just brought me to tears

Not just cause of the time

They got us in a bind

It’s a war against blacks

The slave trade refined

Want us all confined

Chained up in a line

Word to Jeezy and Plies, I’m bout to lose my mind

They coming for the G’s so every day should be savored

Penitentiary’s a form of cheap labor

Hope I’m getting shit clear with no plunger

Attorneys up the fees as soon as you show hunger

But with no paid lawyer you going under

It’s all about the bread, shit, no wonder

Please lord, forgive us for being sinners

For some reason we all got rage in us

All we trying to do is be winners

We tired of eating beef flavored noodles for dinner

[Hook] (x2)

No stressing, we just progressing

Mistakes is alright if you learn your lesson

Fuck a recession, the devil’s recessing

The devil’s playground and the hood need blessings

[Verse 2]

As real niggas, the cards are stacked against us

Ducking them boys, them alphabets trying to pinch us

Them jack boys lurking, gotta keep the fifth tucked

And your co-de’s snitch as soon as they sent up

And our kids gonna resent us, for leaving them alone

In this world to fend for their own

We thought we was keeping it real, but to who though?

When half of them G’s is dead that you know

And the other half in jail or turned snitch

Straight killers who got hit, then turned bitch

Trapping is dead, most yapping to the feds

Better go put your effort in something legal instead

Please lord, forgive us for being sinners

For some reason we all got rage in us

All we trying to do is be winners

We tired of eating chicken flavored noodles for dinner

[Hook] (x2)
