| Last night I had a dream that I woke up dead
|
| A motherfucker put some money on my head
|
| Cold sweat, wide awake in my bed
|
| I guess I should’ve took my meds
|
| I’m so sedated, self medicated
|
| Hoping that the threats on my life are never predicated
|
| If this is the price of fame, I should’ve hesitated
|
| I don’t wanna die in the streets, I’m too educated
|
| Type of shit you need a vest for
|
| Type of shit that can’t be fixed with high test scores
|
| Getting pressed more, as the fame builds
|
| But my shrink keep prescribing me the same pills
|
| Can’t kill a motherfucker just for lookin' at me
|
| Even though I know his ass is plottin' when he lookin' at me
|
| Statute of limitations on a murder is
|
| Non-existent. |
| If I hit him, I’ll be serving years
|
| This morning I woke up dead
|
| Comatose, two shots to the head
|
| Finally got me, that’s what they said
|
| This morning I woke up dead
|
| For years I’ve been having dreams that I get shot
|
| Then them niggas go runnin' up the block
|
| Me and Terry just chillin' at the spot
|
| They pull up in the Cutlass, start bustin', then I drop
|
| Start running, I collapse on the corner
|
| Neighbors start yellin', somebody call the coroner
|
| Standing over me, blood on my denim
|
| Kinda like Omar did Snoop when he hit ‘em
|
| Wreath wrapped up in blue ribbon
|
| Nobody at the funeral, knew that I was Crippin'
|
| Well I’m not, but on the block, who isn’t?
|
| If you kick it on the spot, then it don’t make a difference
|
| You can get shot just because you with 'em
|
| And every cop thinkin' that you fit the description
|
| Gettin' older as my life get’s shorter
|
| Livin' with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
|
| This morning I woke up dead
|
| Comatose, two shots to the head
|
| Finally got me, that’s what they said
|
| This morning I woke up dead
|
| I asked my mama not to move up out the hood
|
| She fucked around and she moved to Inglewood
|
| And to her, everything is all good
|
| ‘Cause she doesn’t understand, if she never understood
|
| Niggas lookin' at me all crazy
|
| I’m standing on the corner with my baby
|
| Ready for whatever, ‘cause that’s how the streets made me
|
| Ain’t a fuckin' thing changed in this city since the ‘80s |
