[Intro: 38 Spesh & DJ Green Lantern]
I'm on
The fuck you know about it
Let's go
Uh, uh
38 Special
Yeah, nah'm sayin'?
In Custody
Everybody ought to just
If this too real for you, turn to your local R&B station
[?]
Yo, uh
Right now

[Verse 1: 38 Spesh]
Ayo, I just copped out to a two year bid
It's fucked up 'cause grandma got one year to live
Uh, don't feel my pain, y'all know that I'm stressed
I just, pray for days, hoping
[?] blessed
And the only reason I'm locked is because I ain't go tell
They said that it'd help my case but oh well
Now, I gotta sit in a cold cell
And I'm gon' be in the system 'til oh-twelve
But, oh well, know that it's a cold hell
And I know these n***as ain't gon' send me no mail
But out in the world they was riding my coattails
And when we took trips I paid for they hotel
If they was only 'round 'cause I was doing so swell
And they could drink good, and smoke swell
*Tsh*, I had the coke sales, no joke
And my coke [?], [?] I throw shells
I had some bad run-ins with the law
Gun inside of my drawers, running with my dogs
Y'all get caught and start running your jaws
They get everybody indicted, even your broad
Aw, nah, nah, y'all n***as I know 'bout
Type to leave your man in jail but get your ho out
And when it's beef, we grab guns and roll out
I go to war with something big, I fold out
I bagged treys, graduated to the nickels
Right? Shit, I was infatuated with the pistols
Thirteen, not exaggerating a little
At the bottom, felt I had to make it to the middle
No hope (Hope), it had me stagnated just a little
I was broke (Broke), and really aggravated off the issue
No joke (Joke), I ain't have the patience in my mental
I'll tell you 'bout the places that I been through
Ate off them dirty plates, slept on them dirty floors
Sixteen, stressed out, looking like I'm 34
[Chorus: 38 Spesh]
Praying to the Lord, don't let the streets hurt me no more
Please don't let 'em hurt me no more
Even though the corner and the fast life I certainly adore
Carry a gun in case of an emergency or war
Can't personally afford, working with being poor
So I came to put a hurting on y'all, n***a
