lyrics

I miss those suburban kitchens
everyday got my up all night wishing
that I was back on the block
counting up my stacks from slinging crack rock
meet a girl named Jesse at Walgreens
ask her for the thousandth time
what does it all mean
break this stone of flesh and blood
the gospel truth that you once was
everybody's nigga that was on the scene
remember when they used to call your crew the dream team
handicap parked with Crisco, your best ho
took it real slow, cause it ain't for show
pass it to the left now it's time to meet the family
sit down dinner with green beans and celery

Rowlett is where I want to be
won't you go, won't you go
down with me

I haven't took a shower in three days
lost my boy Mocha who stayed under the interstate
he took a walk with an acid tongue
with Nazgul following, stick n' poke hollering
got that nigga thinking about the times
when he would play Donkey Kong and wave his tech-9
nobody knew that the piece was loaded
just one shot and we all start running
when that reflection was too much to take
he grabbed two pockets full of stones
and jumped into the lake
they fished his body out only yesterday
I don't know, man
what am I supposed to say?

What I meant to say is it's hard to breathe
fuck the scene, if you know what I mean
let's just go back to the block
shirts unbuttoned screaming "fuck a cop!"
asking what we're getting into tonight
watching Hustle and Flow, living the mack life
I'm sweating, I'm cussing, I'm busting
but on the real I ain't said nothing
so back the fuck off little pistol starter
if you don't get down don't make this shit harder
when I see you again, chasing trends
let's jam Biggie
call our clique the Dead End
