Man, I balled the hardest dog, I was slinging big dope Had money, women, ALL that shit man you know what I am saying, just everything I had it all; at least I thought I did (You know what I'm sayin) But now I'm locked up, and I've got these 3 strikes; I'm just thinking man... I wish I could just get to know my kids This is the story of a man I met on some time that I was doing His message got me checking all of the choices I'd been choosing And the methods I'd been using to keep on stepping when I'm moving He looked at me said listen, look at me my life is ruined I kept thinking 'It aint over yet' 'Keep stepping until you're dead But curiosity it stopped me from speaking on what he said So instead, I just listened because that was my position This cat had a lot of wisdom and he'd be transferred soon to prison "I'm a slave to institution" He said as he was turning "It's a sicknees there's no curing, and a tide that there's no turning One of life's only excursions worse than death for any person It's like an AIDS infected cursed one De-flowering a virgin Desires of a human used against him by the system Becuase prison is big business, all designed to keep you losing Then someone butted in and told him "You knew what you were doing" Then he got kind of pissed and hissed "Of course yes I did!" "But, was I talking to you?!" "No, I was spitting at this kid" So I was sitting there thinking 'Oh shit it's on now!' But they talked it all out and things calmed back down He said "I'm talking because you are young and still have got a lot of life to live Soak it up! Maybe you won't make the same mistakes that I did" "So anyway, at any rate, before I was rudely interrupted, What's your name home-boy?" I said 'What's up? My name is Dustin' I know you gotta run these streets at night Think about it every time that I turn out the light In the crib with the kids feeling all alone All I want to know Tell me when you're coming back home He said "Cool so check it out Dust, I was living a dream, you know, a bad ass bitch, big things and bling blings 2 screens up in the headrest of my 2 grand Sub-ur-ban Nothing but the best. you know, expanding when I'm pressed Those rims with gold caps, picture it if you can see that It seems Phat. But, I thought that I was slick My clique was rolling thick and moving quick up in the mix Tricks were hitting backflips just trying to get with this But snitches with nervous twitches get vicious when living lifted" 'So what the cops didn't know?' "Yeah they were hip don't get it twisted On to me for a minute before my door got kicked in It wen't 1... 2... 3... or 4 or more times I had it all worked out There wasn't nothing they would find Rocks started sliding trying to take mine while I climb And they kept on trying cause theyre blinded when I shine Swine squeeling while I fly, they hit you low when living high I'd live until I die but theyve turned life into a crime Now my woman came and asked me when all of this would end... I looked into her eyes and told her, "WHEN I MAKE A MILLION" I know you gotta run these streets at night I think about it every time that I turn out the light In the crib with the kids feeling all alone All I want to know Tell me when you're coming back home So I was getting it Making a "G" at least a day, and it seemed like my goal wouldnt be so far away More money, More problems I guess that's what Bigg would say Cause keeping classic habits happy always spurs a lot of hate Full sails, on great lakes Full plates and high stakes So soon would be the date to take the heavy weight and lift it Though the wind was in my favor; Thanks when the momentum shifted I know you gotta run these streets at night I think about it every time that I turn out the light In the crib with the kids feeling all alone All I want to know Tell me when you're coming back home You know I gotta run these streets at night I'm out here getting money, gotta turn on the lights I know you need love, can't be alone I don't know when I'm coming back home I don't know when I'm coming back home
