A big city baby 
Time to bend on some shit 
y'all people don't understand 
That shit is real out here 
I'm a tell y'all a story 
Now this story didn't happen too long ago 
And it wasn't that far away 
Its about some real niggas 
Niggas doin real things aight 
So let me get to the first page and Ill break it down like this 
Chapter one 

[ Lil Fame ] 
I was a young child  lost  went to church on Sundays 
Walking a narrow road that lead me to gunplay 
I was a good boy respect my mommy 
Looked up to them OGs like Querto, Phil, and Donny 
Felt good as a young nigga 
Comin home from school gettin love from them neighborhood drug dealers 
Wrote change, Cadillac Sevilles 
But spoke real, was a tradition, Brownsville 
That was the first chapter, passin these stages 
But the book is wider and its a lot more pages 
The game changed, people got foul 
And the same little chuch boy is buckwild 
Runnin wit my homeboys from three three nine 
And one five four five, totin four fives 
I kept dreams of being a rap dude 
But I know the streets too well so I pack tools 
I lost a lot of loved ones to these streets 
And lost a lot of loved ones over beef 
That goes to show these streets haunt ya 
Look what society created now, a monsta 

[ chorus: M.O.P. ] 
My day and age was a different role 
Its when a slug take a niggas soul 
(Slug take a niggas soul) 
Follow your dreams and follow your goals 
Cause who knows what the future holds? 
(Who knows what the future holds?) 
Our man died and was left cold 
Because a slug took the niggas soul 
(Slug took the niggas soul) 
Follow your dreams and follow your goals 
Cause who knows what your future holds 
(This is what your future holds) 

[Billy Danze] 
I wish somebody would lend a hand 
So they could see how I fell inside 
I'm on an emotional roller coaster ride 
Nothing to hide 
A long time ago I set aside my pride 
And used my past as a ghetto guide 
A few good men died, several wept stood beside me 
So I could smooth out the road for those that come behind me 
You know where you can find me 
Out on the back blocks 
Grippin black glocks in front of crack spots 
Its just a hobby 
And since I was a baby 
Thuggin, smokin, drinkin, totin is how the first family raised me 
( He who lives as a gangter, will perish in these streets ) 
I know that's deep 
But I still shed tears for my mother, two years 
After shed been laid to rest 
And still some things I need to chisel off my chest 
My remedy for stress, I conversate wit my oldest brother 
Ten years after his death 
I know there's nothin left 
So I'm forced to take a deep breath 
Before I attempt to take another step 
A lot of brothas slept 
A lot of brothas was left cold in the street and told 
This is what your future holds 

[ chorus ] 

So there you have it 
You see, a lot of niggas talk about bullshit 
Talkin about cars, jewels, and money 
But in all reality, we all come out the same bag of shit 
Some of us may never see tomorrow 
So my niggas 
don't you never don't you ever forget where you come from 
Salute 
M.O.P. for life baby
