Let me take ya’ll way back, way back |
| [00:09.495] |
When I was 8 years old |
| [00:11.513] |
I was playing in my front yard, front yard |
| [00:14.534] |
I ran through the back door |
| [00:17.038] |
That’s when I saw my mamma crying |
| [00:19.486] |
I said I asked ‘What’s wrong? |
| [00:21.276] |
I said I asked my mamma ‘What’s wrong? |
| [00:23.616] |
I said I asked my mamma ‘What’s wrong? |
| [00:26.828] |
She said ‘Baby if you ever listen |
| [00:29.297] |
this is the perfect time, son’ |
| [00:31.227] |
My mamma told me that she had cancer, cancer |
| [00:34.013] |
And mamma might die soon |
| [00:36.015] |
My mamma told me she might die soon |
| [00:38.248] |
My mamma told me she might die soon |
| [00:41.686] |
And when I was 15, standing on that block |
| [00:45.836] |
That’s when a black Monte Carlo pulled up, pulled up |
| [00:49.093] |
And started letting out shots |
| [00:51.385] |
That’s when a bullet went across my head |
| [00:53.053] |
And I laid there thinking I was dead |
| [00:56.287] |
And When I was 16 |
| [00:58.553] |
Sitting in that cell |
| [01:00.550] |
That’s when an officer came up to me |
| [01:03.313] |
And I thought I had bail |
| [01:05.650] |
But then I knew that something was wrong |
| [01:07.771] |
I kinda felt my mamma was gone |
| [01:10.996] |
Now tell me, is ya feelin’ me? |
| [01:13.366] |
Oh do you fell the melody |
| [01:15.126] |
Going oh, da, da, da, da, oh......... |
