[00:00:11] First they love me then they hate me

[00:00:12] Then they love me again

[00:00:15] they love me again

[00:00:17] Let's take a trip down I gotcha

[00:00:22] Let's take a trip down memory

[00:00:24] Lane at the cemetery

[00:00:26] Rain grey skies seems at the end of every

[00:00:29] Young black life is this line "Damn - him already

[00:00:32] Such a good kid " got us pouring Henn' already

[00:00:34] Liquor to the curb for my niggas up above

[00:00:37] When it cracks through the pavement

[00:00:38] That's my way of sendin love

[00:00:39] So give Big a hug tell Aa-liyah I said hi

[00:00:43] 'Til the next time I see her on the other side

[00:00:45] He was just some thug that caught some slugs

[00:00:48] And we loved him cause in him we saw some of us

[00:00:51] He walked like us talked like us

[00:00:54] His back against the wall

[00:00:55] Nigga fought like us - damn

[00:00:58] Poor Isis that's his momma name

[00:00:59] Momma ain't strong enough to raise

[00:01:01] No boy what's his father name

[00:01:03] Shorty never knew him

[00:01:04] Though he had his blood in him

[00:01:06] Hot temper momma said he act

[00:01:08] Just like her husband

[00:01:09] Daddy never f**ked with him

[00:01:10] So the streets raised him

[00:01:12] Isis blaming herself

[00:01:12] She wish she could've saved him

[00:01:14] Damn near impossible only men can raise men

[00:01:17] He was his own man

[00:01:18] Not even him can save him

[00:01:20] He put his faith in a

[00:01:21] Thirty-eight in his waist

[00:01:22] But when you live by

[00:01:24] The gun you die by the same fate

[00:01:25] End up dead before thirty-eight and umm

[00:01:28] That's the life of us raised

[00:01:30] By winter it's a cold world

[00:01:32] Old girl turned to coke

[00:01:33] Tried to smoke her pain away

[00:01:35] Isis life just ended on that rainy day

[00:01:37] When she got the news her boy

[00:01:39] Body could be viewed

[00:01:40] Down at the City Morgue

[00:01:41] Opened the drawer saw him nude

[00:01:43] Her addiction grew prescription drugs shift and brew

[00:01:47] Angel dust dipped in WOO

[00:01:49] She slipped into her own fantasy world

[00:01:52] Had herself pregnant by a different dude

[00:01:54] But reality bites and this is her life

[00:01:57] He wasn't really her husband

[00:01:59] Though he called her wife

[00:02:00] It was just this night when moon was full

[00:02:03] And the stars were just right

[00:02:05] And the dress was real tight

[00:02:06] Had her sounding like Lisa Lisa

[00:02:08] I wonder if I take you home

[00:02:09] Will you still love me after this night

[00:02:12] Mike was the hardhead from the around the way

[00:02:14] That she wanted all her life

[00:02:16] Shit she wanted all the hype

[00:02:18] Used to hold on tight

[00:02:19] When he wheelied on the bike

[00:02:20] He was a Willie all her life

[00:02:22] He wasn't really the one to like

[00:02:23] It was a dude named Shy who

[00:02:25] Would really treat her right

[00:02:26] He wanted to run to the country

[00:02:27] To escape the city life

[00:02:29] But I-sis like this Broadway life

[00:02:31] She loved the Gucci sneakers

[00:02:33] The red green and whites

[00:02:35] Hangin out the window when

[00:02:36] She first seen him fight

[00:02:37] She was so turned on that

[00:02:39] She had to shower twice

[00:02:40] How ironic it would be some fight that

[00:02:43] Turned into a homicide

[00:02:45] That'll alter their life

[00:02:46] See Mike at thirty-two was

[00:02:47] Still on the scene

[00:02:49] Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice

[00:02:52] Sure he saw him as an infant

[00:02:53] But he dissed on him like

[00:02:55] "If that was my son he would look much different

[00:02:58] See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark

[00:03:00] So it's momma's baby; poppa's maybe

[00:03:03] Mike was still crazy out there running

[00:03:05] The streets (f**k niggas want )

[00:03:06] Had his old reliable

[00:03:07] With thirty-eight gun in his reach

[00:03:09] It's been fourteen years

[00:03:10] Him and Isis ain't speak

[00:03:12] He running around like life's a peach 'til one day

[00:03:15] He approached this thug that had a mean mug

[00:03:18] And it looked so familiar

[00:03:19] That he called him "Young Cuz"

[00:03:20] Told him get off the strip

[00:03:22] But the boy ain't budge (f**k you)

[00:03:23] Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub

[00:03:26] He clearly had the drop

[00:03:28] But the boy just paused (hold up)

[00:03:29] There was somethin in this man's

[00:03:30] Face he knew he seen before

[00:03:32] It's like lookin in the mirror

[00:03:33] Seeing hisself more mature

[00:03:35] And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord

[00:03:38] You know what they say about he

[00:03:39] Who hesitates in war

[00:03:41] (What's that ) He who hesitates is lost

[00:03:43] He can't explain what he saw before

[00:03:45] His picture went blank

[00:03:46] The old man didn't think he

[00:03:47] Just followed his instinct

[00:03:49] Six shots into his kid out of the gun

[00:03:52] Niggas be a father you're Killing your son

[00:03:55] Six shots into his kid out of the gun

[00:03:58] Niggas be a father you Killing your sons
