[00:00.20]Hold up let me hit my Hypnotic
[00:04.90]Aight you rollin
[00:07.80]I'd just like to take a minute to apolgize to my listeners
[00:12.30]I just wanna say I'm sorry for not havin any songs about happiness
[00:16.88]Or bein in peace and sh*t like that
[00:19.76]See I can only display my personal feelings and experinces
[00:23.46]And so far I ain't felt what happiness feels like
[00:26.15]And experinced anything but hard times and heartache
[00:29.17]So I apologize for not makin you dance
[00:31.96]I apologize for not havin any sarcastical songs
[00:35.10]You know that good feeling with e'm
[00:37.24]That put a smile on your face
[00:38.50]I ain't had nothin to offer accept for frowns
[00:41.37]So for that I'm sorry I promise if I could sing another song
[00:45.60]I wish I could tell you my life is good but it's not
[00:48.09]I wish Missouri , city runners were cold, but they're hot
[00:50.67]So many situations to deal with, I can't concentrate
[00:53.60]A hundred homies and everyone is fake
[00:55.86]How can I make it out the ghetto it want let me go
[00:58.28]Seems like everytime I do a good deed, good deeds never return to 'Ro
[01:01.54]I gave up my last so somebody could have a start
[01:04.07]Then somebody got me locked behind bars
[01:06.47]What a way to show ya love back-homie you a friend for life
[01:09.13]For your crime I'm doin time in the Penn tonight
[01:12.11]It's bad enough I lost a family my luck ain't live
[01:14.71]Mama died when I was 6 and Daddy ain't have enough time
[01:17.34]To kick it with me-like I wanted him to kick it with me
[01:19.45]Now that I'm incarcarated you wanna come and visit with me
[01:22.78]But I ain't holdin no grudges Daddy I love you that's my word
[01:25.67]Even though you had me sleeping on a curb...I wish I had another song
[03:38.78][02:34.63][01:29.50]These are the days(these are the days)
[03:43.20][02:38.88][01:33.94]We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away(soon they'll be gone away)
[03:47.29][02:44.87][01:38.96]On to another place
[03:52.59][02:47.97][01:43.29]Pretty soon I'll be gone
[01:44.75]Twenty-sum odd years of calling God on this mobile phone
[03:56.85][02:51.02][01:46.95]If it wasn't for my life style I'd sing another song
[01:50.02]I wish that I was ridin around in a Bentley
[01:52.34]But maybe Z-Ro living lavish just ain't meant to be
[01:55.16]Cause I'm the type of fella that'll give a bum a hundred dollars
[01:57.88]I'd rather help out my people instead of poppin my collar
[02:00.53]I wish that I could get a million copies sold
[02:02.71]If I'm broke I'd rather die I don't want no more poverty-growing old
[02:05.86]Sometimes I wish that I was somebody else
[02:08.13]Cause I can't even pay bills even though my CD's won't stay on the shelf
[02:11.31]Strugglin and I'm strivin and just barely strivin
[02:13.97]Bobbin and weavin-my last breathe time after time
[02:18.10]And it seems that I won't ever get no rest I'm exhausted
[02:21.17]Tryna make it-compare the price and pain is what the cost is
[02:25.00]Maybe if I was evil I'd be rolling in bread
[02:28.17]Until somebody with a pistol come and opened my head
[02:31.66]But my mission is keepin ambition
[02:32.49]I'm trying so hard even though my soul is scarred-oh Lord...
[02:33.28]I wish I had another song
[03:53.84][02:49.39]Twenty-summod years of calling God on this mobile phone
[03:27.74][02:54.39]I wish that I could sing another song
[02:58.07]But my rhythm is too much pain
[03:00.56]Sunshine is the level that I think I'm on so tell me why it's so much rain
[03:05.97]Day to day it's a struggle in my lifetime
[03:08.71]To keep from tripping I be stayin in the trees
[03:11.04]No crimes commited so tell me why I'm doin time
[03:14.00]And won't nobody come and set a ni**a free
[03:16.74]Sometimes at night I smoke a cig and sit back
[03:19.06]And wonder why the whole world hate me
[03:22.16]So much ambition I just gotta pull my wig back
[03:24.67]Wishing murder would come on and take me
[03:30.14]I'm tired of sleeping in rivers of tears all night long
[03:33.01]No point in wonderin why my people choose to do me wrong
[03:35.64]Stuck in this reality until my life is over and gone
