Ohhhh
Now I was barely seventeen
with a pocket full of hope
Screamin' dollar and a dream
with my closet lookin' broke
And my ******'s lookin' clean
gettin' caught up with that ****
Have you ever served a fiend
with a pocket full of soap
****** I can tell you things
that you probably shouldn't know
Have you ever heard the screams
when the body hit the floor
Flashbacks to the pain wakin' up cold sweats
Six o'clock in the mornin' gotta hit the BoFlex
Get my weight up on the block
keep watch for the cops
God they love to serve a ****** three hots and a cot
Nowadays crime pays like a part time job
And the drought got me prayin' for a car time vibe
Summer Rain come again numb the pain
'cause it's hard for a felon
In my mind I been cryin' know it's wrong
but I'm sellin'
Eyes wellin' up with tears thinkin'
'bout my ******s dead in the dirt
Immortalized on this shirt
Real ******s don't die
Form with the plot
One-Seven-Forty-Five
Form at the plot
Real ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Hood ******s don't lie
Form on the plot
My ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Real ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Real ******s don't die
Real ******s don't die
Have you ever seen a fiend cook crack on the spoon
Have you ever seen a ****** that was black on the moon
Have you ever seen your brother go to prison
as you cried
Have you ever seen a mother******' ribbon in the sky
Nope all I see is that C.R.E.A.M ****** that green
I'm a black king black jeans on my black queen
And her ass fat too fat for a flat screen
I'm the type of ****** make the whole ******' trap lean
Kingpin ****** put wings on a crack fiend
If they want a ******
they gon' have to send a SWAT team
And I'm goin' out like Scarface in his last scene
A legend what that mean
Real ******s don't die
Form with the plot
One-Seven-Forty-Five
Form at the plot
Real ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Hood ******s don't lie
Form on the plot
My ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Real ******s don't die
Form on the plot
Real ******s don't die
Real ******s don't die
To die a young legend
or live a long life unfulfilled
'Cause you wanna change the world
but while alive you never will
'Cause they only feel you after you gone
or I've been told
And now I'm caught between bein' heard and gettin' old
Damn death creepin' in my thoughts lately
My one wish in this ************ make it quick
if the Lord take me
I know nobody meant to live forever anyway
And so I hustle like my ******s in Virgini-A
They tellin' ******s sell **** rap or go to NBA
In that order
It's that sort of thinkin' that been keepin' ******s chained
at the bottom and hanged
The strangest fruit that you ever seen ripe with pain
Listen
