[00:11.49] [00:12.07]You know saying Been since like [00:14.67]95 both graduated and sh*t [00:17.33] [00:18.32]Sh*t changed a grip for me this year [00:20.09] [00:21.16]95 was some sh*t check it out [00:23.85] [00:24.86]It was 95 the year of my graduation [00:27.02]I was in great anticipation of my date of release [00:30.41]From this educational prison [00:31.93]Moms made the decision [00:32.90]To throw me from the residence [00:34.38]It seems w**d and hip-hop had taken precedence [00:36.82]Over my responsibilities but it was alright [00:39.66]Because that day to day b******t was killing me [00:41.96]So willingly I left the home [00:43.82]And set out on my own [00:45.20]Shacked up with some crew Saga and Rhythm [00:47.37]Didn't have to give them any rent [00:49.05]So hella time was spent up late night [00:50.88]Freestyling getting high [00:51.62] [00:52.51]Not knowing how I would make it to school the next day [00:54.63]From the Westside of L A I had to hit the 33 [00:56.97]And now I hear them fools from Red [00:58.33]Dots is out to murder me [00:59.57]So certainly stresss built [01:01.02]Taking bus to night school every day [01:02.48] [01:02.99]Could got my a** kilt [01:04.08]But I had to get my credits straight [01:06.11]Plus the bus ride gave me time to meditate [01:08.14]On how to set this sh*t straight [01:09.69]So late one night [01:10.67]I called up moms then we reached an agreement [01:12.89]Which only delayed [01:13.44]It didn't prevent what was bound to happen [01:15.53]She said she wasn't tripping [01:16.63]Just as long as I got a gown and cap [01:18.62]Then came graduation day [01:19.32] [01:20.05]The only ni**a to walk the stage [01:21.64]With a zero point five four five GPA [01:24.11]I hand her the diploma and she still have sh*t to say [01:26.99]And it's f**kin off my vibe [01:28.44]And the album's on its way [01:29.76]I couldn't prolong the day when Murs [01:31.06]And the real world would collide [01:33.21]The year was nine-five [01:34.50]The year was nine-five [01:35.74]I thought I wouldn't survive [01:37.05]Living in the city [01:38.16]Where it's a day to day struggle to survive [01:40.17] [01:41.17]The year was nine-five [01:42.66]Daily survival tactics in L A [01:45.03]Daily survival tactics in L A [01:47.70]Daily survival tactics in L A [01:50.33]Daily survival tactics in L A [01:52.99]Daily survival tactics in L A [01:55.64]I struggled my way in the summer [01:56.95]And now the album's almost done [01:58.32]But now is when the crew starts to fall apart [02:00.49]One by one we disassembled [02:02.20]Which sorta resembles my life [02:03.54]Falling apart right before my eyes [02:05.49]So I fantasized about having a video [02:07.33]And being on tour [02:08.62]To keep my mind off my empty stomach [02:10.27]And sleeping on the floor [02:11.40]Being that I'm broke [02:12.60]I'm stealing groceries from the store [02:14.04]And now it seems every battle I have turns to beef [02:16.32]And me broke with no heat [02:18.10]I'm looking over both shoulders whenever I hit the streets [02:20.84]And just when I thought I escaped defeat [02:22.75]I'm sitting with my homey and we smoking a beadie [02:24.93]When this cop see me and he decides to procede [02:27.30]A young black male with dreads it gotta be w**d [02:29.70]So he comes over with the usual disrespect [02:31.42] [02:32.35]But that's all I've come to expect [02:33.94]From a motherf**ker with a badge and a God Complex [02:36.14]Next he's asking questions testing my patience [02:38.56]Finds out I'm underage now he's writing a citation [02:41.16]Asking me to stand up to be frisked [02:42.86]I'm like Man f**k this [02:44.39]Then this b**ch cop snatched me up from the back [02:46.45]I turned around to counter the attack [02:48.43]But I'm surrounded by five cops [02:49.86]Who don't appreciate the reply [02:51.22]So it's me they hogtie and throw on the asphault [02:53.92]Steady talking sh*t standing over me like it's all my fault [02:57.04]And now I got a court case to face [02:59.02]And in the first place I barely got enoughs to survive [03:01.50]So when the court date arrived [03:03.08]I damn sure don't got enough for a f**king bus ride [03:05.81]So they give me a warrant failure to appear [03:08.13]The next week I'm at the pier with my crew [03:10.30]I seen this fool I battled a couple days back [03:12.37]Hadn't seen him in a few I stepped to him [03:14.59]He's like Dude we need a rematch [03:16.16]You see my ego's been scratched [03:17.21]And when I tell him that sh*t ain't gonna happen [03:19.47]His ese partner went and opened up his trap [03:21.29]And tell me that the odds was uneven instead of leaving [03:23.64]I turned around and put this motherf**ker in his place [03:26.18]And at the same time [03:27.37]His homey all up in my ni**a T S face [03:29.63]So I'm think we about to squab; [03:31.09]But then the cops mob [03:32.11]And break it up now they feeling like [03:33.99]They did they job [03:34.85]But here they come back up the street hella deep [03:37.61]Talking sh*t like we wasn't gonna trip [03:39.05] [03:39.66]So I took the first hit [03:40.71]And now we squabbing in the middle of the streets [03:42.68]The odds was 3-on-6 and we still held it down [03:45.61]Except for the one so called homey [03:47.07]Who stood there held the radio and looked around [03:48.98] [03:49.66]And it seems like forever that we fought [03:51.54]But it eventually came to a halt [03:53.46]So then we hit the park to discuss what happened [03:56.28]I wake up the next day [03:57.50]These fools is talking bout capping me [03:59.22]Taking my life over a fight nah that couldn't be right [04:02.07]Lost sight of where I'm living Los Angeles [04:03.72]Where fools ain't giving a f**k [04:05.48]Stuck in the same place [04:06.68]With decisions to make [04:07.61]Either I kill them they kill me or I make an escape [04:10.59]So I took the money [04:11.48]That my step-pops left me when he passed away [04:13.54]And moved up to the Bay only to find out [04:15.73]Niggaz gonna have problems wherever you stay [04:17.83]And it's been a couple of years [04:19.20]And some of these fools is still tripping to this day [04:21.55]So I feel I can safely say [04:22.96]That on this planet there ain't no place like L A [04:25.30]There ain't no place like L A [04:27.24]Mid-City fool b**ch [04:29.16]Heated defeated day after day [04:32.21]Daily survival tactics in L A
