I remember back in '02 - the boy, I was a hungry cat/
strapped with a hungry gat to splat any clumsy fat/
fag with a limp in his walk - I'd pimp him in chalk/
he pleads as I'm rippin' him off - that's simpleton talk/
No time to chat son - I'm like dust in the trail/
while you think it's betrayal, bitch I simply prevail/
and I leave no evidence, I was born with common sense/
if you living ruthless, death becomes a common scent/
By the time '04 came my stomach was well padded/
yeah I was eatin' good now - I'm in the G-Wagon/
not braggin' - but damn a nigga had to feel good now/
fuck a steak I bought the whole cow - I get around bitches/
Had a crew to work in the streets, another for the snitches/
5-0 paid, get a nigga a long way - no such thing as a long day/ PAUSE
It's '06 now, the man wakes - looks in the mirror/
at the face of an angel - eyes of a killer/
at the hands of a criminal - mind of a winner/
feeling the anxiety and stress of being a sinner/
The night before, I even skipped my whole dinner/
felt like shit son but shorty kept my chin up/
damn I loved that bitch - yeah she was worth the pain/
worth losing every dollar - all of my capital gains/
decided that was it - I was gonna quit the game/
took my money and my bitch - said fuck it to the fame/
but life ain't that simple, the past comes to haunt you/
if people wanna hurt you - patience is their virtue/
in '05, I was on some charges, was on curfew/
I robbed a nigga and the bitch snitched - wanted to hurt fool/
so this was my vendetta, I put on my black bandana/
black tims, black vest, black nine - front and center/
found him on the corner where I robbed his ass/
I pulled up slow - in the stolen benz S-Class/
hopped out, fired 2 shots, left him dead in the grass/
watched him bleed out - every single blood cell he had/
I enjoyed it - it made me feel like Shang Tsung/
like I took a soul and added to my blank tomb/
or like I stole a life right out from a damn womb/
or like Ghostbusters - spirits in a dank room/
Now when I killed dude, it was said and done for me/
satisfaction, only fed my urge to kill for greed/
I felt invincible - even though I lived with secrets/
the weed and alcohol supressed and helped me defeat it/
but it was short lived - like my urge to go straight/
I went on the street - I sold my last 4 weights/
as I drove home to pick up shorty so we could get outta dodge/
had a tail - didn't notice - being followed by the mob/
got home, walked in - my shorty dead on the ground/
emotion hit my heart, that's when I remembered that clown/
that I gunned down in '05, his pops was Italian/
just then, within that thought, I faced a battalion/
I started shooting, shit now they closing in, on me/
I was one man up against an army - it was fucked up/
in all this ruckus I thought, "Shorty, she so dead"/
"The only bitch I ever let sleep in my own bed"/
had to make a judgement call, life over death/
had to live my life, death was a hell of a threat/
thats when my AK sprayed, I'd live to tell my story/
I'd live the rest of my life, in serene sweet glory/
Made it to the garage, smooth like Chico DeBarge/
I was shot in the shoulder - still I hopped in the car/
backed out, broke through the door, and killed a dude/
made it to the freeway, yeah I lost those fools/
now it's '09, I had to say goodbye to my old life/
livin' for shorty's memory - I smell the scent of my Old Spice/
The one thing I know - everybody's got their timeline/
just don't fuck with niggas like me - I make your time MINE...
