my time, and i done made up my mind shawntae gotta
leave you behind, and get my dough cause half of
that's mine, and my drow to help me the daughter

livin proof, do on to others as you'd have
mothafuckas do on to you

she, was my ace boon coon in high, we grew up
together, you fucked with her i'd fight you , and
vice versa, from class to choir rehearsal, totin
the bags, slangin them sacks, and beat up all the
hood rats, rolling off with the richest niggas on
the block and bring they whips back, but things
changed when I started to rap, jealousy kicked in,
she wouldn't be my friend, she wasn't even
lookin out for me then, she didn't even have
time to call me on the phone to say hello so
good-bye, good-bye , you'll never get apiece of
my love again don't try, my love is everlasting
like Tony Terry , I'm very territorial and I'm
over protective to niggas I love, cause I respect
them, but not this heffa, she took things in a
different direction, I can't protect her when
its said and done, shit, I am not the one, I need
loyal buddies, supportive of me, roarin for me,
breakin my trust can get ugly so please don't
mistake my kindness for weakness, learn it, as I
stomp trough the trenches on this tedious journey,
I'm so hot my feet burn , and you keep yearnin
to be a part of my life but you done fucked it up
permanently, now it don't concern me no more
