38 Spesh
Left Me Hangin’
Verse 1:

Right, uh, uh, uh, lemme tell you about my life, we ain't have a thing
50 cent to my name, cup of noodles and a dream (And a dream)
My family ain't support me, my mom knew I would make it
'Cause anything that I ever wanted, I would take it
My pops left me young, so I ain't had no guidance
I taught myself how to fight, but shit that wasn't rocket science
Once I mastered that, I always turned to violence
Any sign of disrespect, shit, then we was slidin' (Slidin')
My pops left me hangin', he must think that I ain't need him
All I had was me and dukеs, we was barely eatin' (Barеly eatin')
We was either homeless, or the house was freezin'
You was walkin' 'round fresh, in your brand new Adidas (Psh)
You would tuck yo' chain, aim on me to see it
You know we was poor, sleepin' on the floor
Tryna hit yo' line but my calls you would ignore (Damn)
N***as did me dirty, I'm your baby boy
Held it down for mommy, it's so much in store
Snatchin' ladies' purses, stealin' out the store

Chorus:

See, you left me hangin' (Fucked up how you left me hangin')
Uh, I still can't see how you left me hangin' (Shit, I ain't understand, I still don't understand)
It's fucked up 'cause you left me hangin'
That's how you left me hangin'
Verse 2:

Another Christmas passed, I ain't get shit
I ain't want shit, we ain't have shit
Just look out for little sis
Save my little money just to buy her a pair of kicks
Dukes turn fiends, started stress a n***a out
Doin' shit for my brothers but you left a n***a out
No respect for my mother so you X a n***a out
16 holdin' my gun finna stretch a n***a out
Every other n***as had their pops around
Not me, I was lettin' off shots around
I'm just a young ghetto n***a, from around the way
You know where I'm at, I'm always down the way
Stressed out, tears fallin', kneelin' down to pray

Chorus:

Just 'cause you left me hangin'
Life was fucked up 'cause you left me hangin'
We ain't had nothin' 'cause you left me hangin'
Or where I am 'cause you left me hangin'
It's fucked up 'cause you left me hangin'
Shit fucked up 'cause you left me hangin'
