Young Nigga
Z-Ro

When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigga

And make change, outta five dollar ass niggaz

I was a nerd in middle school

But by the tenth grade, I was playing in a game that had only four rules

Kill or be killed, try not to go to the pen

Never rat on nobody, and you can't even trust your best friend

Fifteen and five, were the numbers in the kitchen

And the day I sold my first ounce, wanted rich high school ain't seen me since then

A long way, from making the honor roll

Mo City Texas everybody had a weapon, you had to stay up on your toes

Drinking forty ounces of brew, and smoking fry

You ain't from around here, better get gone or be the next to die

Even though my hood ain't a ghetto, ain't nothing friendly here

The CPS thought they did me a favor, when they sent me here

It wasn't nothing but high class hookers, and murderers

And Houston hardhead, kickdo' burglar

A two room duplex, with eleven of us living in it

Thought we were players, so we kept some mo' of women in it

To see if we could run a train on em

Always buying new sheets, cause the old ones had too many stains on em

We use to jack, for Raiders and Kings starter jackets

Throw a broken spark plug through a car window, and then flag it

Snatching Rolexes and purses, coming up nonstop

Property from home invasions, ended up in pawn shops

Taking penitentiary chances, but having fun nigga

Back in the old school, as a young nigga

Huh yeah, as a young nigga

Back in the old school, as a young nigga


[Chorus - 2x]

When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigger

Sometimes, I sit and wish I was a kid again

When I was young, I had the nuts to pull the trigger

Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore


So now I'm living, in a two man hell

23 hour lockdown, in a two man cell

Stuck in the system and one day home, I hope I'll get to go

Meanwhile, they talking about shipping me off to Mexico

Ain't that a bitch, I can't speak no Spanish

But I guess I shoulda thought about that, when I was out there living manish

Too busy missing, what grandmother was telling me

I'll end up in prison, or somebody would end up smelling me

They say you reap what you sew, and that's the truth

I planted a rotten seed, and it brought forth forbidden fruit

Now I'm like Adam and Eve

They took a bite of what ain't right, that was enough for Eve and Adam to leave

I use to roll around the city, with my hand on my mack

Now it's a guard telling me, to put my hands behind my back

This can't be life I'm grown, I don't do rules

Knowing damn well if I was free, I woulda smoked you fool

But that's the same attitude, that got me here

Picked up for armed robbery, and then a blue bird dropped me here

If I was sober, I woulda been in my right mind

Ninety months already, but I'm looking at a lifetime

And all the homies I ran with, they passed on

Living like they were invincible, they didn't last long

And I ain't doing no better, than my friends

If I don't make parole, I'll never lay my hands on a woman again

I'm almost done nigga

If only I could back in time, I'd do it different as a young nigga

Huh yeah, as a young nigga

I'd do it different, as a young nigga


[Chorus - 2x]


In the beginning I was skinny, but now I'm on swoll

57 years old, still waiting on parole

Damn near ready to catch a case, I know I'm never gon' leave

The walls are closing in on me, and it's harder to breathe

I never been to visitation, since I been here

The players I kicked it with, did their time and left me in here

I'm old but taking my commissary, ya'll won't do to me

I'm good with them hands, but I'm not as young as I use to be

So I keep a lock in a sock, and a shank under my mattress

These youngsters trying to get me, for my coffee stamps and jack mack

My teenage years, I was pulling robberies

Now I'm up in age, and I can't stop these teenagers from robbing me

I guess the tables have turned

They triple teaming me but the CO ain't concerned, my lesson is learn

But uh, I ain't never been a coward

So the next time they got me, I got my shank and started downing em in the shower

I ain't the one nigga

But even still I was murdered in the prison system, at the hands of some young niggaz

We need to stop acting like dumb niggaz

So we can raise our daughters, and our sons nigga
