[Verse]

I'ma take it back 2008, I was a gentleman

I was getting high and banging hard but I was innocent

Way before that war with MOB when I was drilling shit

We was up at Carter, had to fight to work out differences

Then this shit got treacherous and that was like 2009

We was out here beating each other up

All of sudden, them shots was flying

Had to jump right in this shit head first, I ain't have a lot of time

I ain't even know too much about the streets

But it weren't rocket science

Couldn't catch us, the opps was trying, likе that the whole 2010

I was 14 thinking I was grown, I felt likе 20 then

I was toting that pipe, I'll take your life, you know this shit a sin

Know a lot of niggas claiming BD 'cause I flipped them in

It's 2011, I'm a vet, and bitch, I'm repping hard

We lost Lil Steve, Baldy and D-Thang

Started letting that weapon spark

We lost Shaq not too long after that, it hurt, I swear to God

Niggas act like they gon' get get back but I could smell a fraud

2012, they like, "What's wrong with Tay? That lil' boy wild as hell"

Coming straight up off that drill with Von, spent my first time in jail

First time seeing a nigga's shit get splat, I didn't know how to feel

Will I even live to 21? Well, only time will tell

I was really posted in that courtway right on 61st

Caught the opps, they tried to spin our block

We had to get 'em first

I was right there when they shot L'A, you know that shit'll hurt

I ain't tripping, I went through that next day

You know I did 'em worse

2013 came in and my niggas was enjoying life

We was in the stu', ain't had to post up, we had earned our stripes

Then they killed L'A, so they had to pay

I was out here sending shots so fast like ándale

I got love for some GD's but fuck the opps, I'm dropping rakes

I was really out here trying to find where Lil Mick momma stay

Run up on his ass, let that choppa spray

Niggas really bitches, on the 'net they got a lot to say
