I hit another milestone again I finally got my 20 years in So stop asking me if I'm retiring Nobody interesting is hiring When they gave me that promotion to E-8 It was already too late to drop my appendix J I'm here to stay earn that pay And make another decision after my hard 3 I still got love for the streets at M-C-R-D But it all started when I was 19 When I took my ASVAB with the U.S. Army But spontaneously ironically ended up in the U-S-M-C Okay, I could have ended up a dope fiend But before Y2K, Instead I became U.S. Marine I was yellow-green Got on a plane headed to San Diego Got off that plane hung out the U-S-O Got on that bus people at the airport Like the poolees looked just as nervous as us Got off that bus shoving the hats started Screaming at us fussing and cussing And then they told us to run but when we got up We spazzed sprinted and started rushing They told us to stand on the yellow footprints Shut it then taught us the position of attention They directed us to call home got a forever ringtone So I hung up the phone Back then I was like f*ck my life damn Emptied contraband from my pockets Also, in my head i was like what the f*ck did I just do man I was recruited into the delayed entry program September 24, 1998 at Pearl Harbor I left for recruit training February 21, 1999 Assigned to Platoon 1045 Bravo Company 1st Battalion Black Boots tri-colored cammies Uniform, ironed-on logos But today's the era of net-gens and later millennials Pride and discipline was so long ago We getting way too lenient on formation no-shows Most of them Staff N-C-O-S I guess they wont find out who's on the hit-list for medical and dental But they wonder why our youths are feeling so fucking very entitled Don't know shit about being humble Don't see worth anything working hard for Even with high school diplomas their English pitiful I wish it was an illusion that shit is painful I hope they find a solution I love you all, but in conclusion Never place me in a position for me to choose between you and the institution Stop being part of the organization's pollution be more of that person with all the contribution They need direction mentorship and leadership In other words, stop being a piece of shit
