As a
kid all I
wanted was to kill a
man Be like my daddy's friends, hopping out that minivan Chrome '38s spinning like a
ceiling fan Crying on my momma's phone swearing he a
different man Talking to me monotone, hardly ever coming home Knew he was the
villain never been a
fan of Superman Beaten on my momma in the
kitchen screaming: "Bitch you better listen when I
speak my mind!" Used to think he was unbreakable he did fed time But made sure a
nigga plate was full and I
shined Was walking in the
first day of school new J's, and all of that Football was cornerback, never made a
game I
played for Compton High But my daddy was the
man that would be suicide Picked me up from visitation in the
newest ride Always told me that he loved me, fuck his foolish pride As a
kid all I
wanted was to kill a
man [Hook:] Cause my daddy did it, eyes bloodshot With the
caddy tinted, fuck handouts Fuck the
county building, never seen that Catch him riding round the
city with the
seat back With the
seat back, with the
seat back Catch him ride round the
city with the
seat back With the
seat back, with the
seat back Catch him ride round the
city with the
seat back As a
kid all I
wanted was a
hundred grand Uncle counting money while my daddy cut him grams Made me promise that this shit would never touch my hands And it never did said it'd make me be a
better man Smoking in the
crib, hiding dip inside of soda cans Black bandana on his arm, needle in his hand Momma trying to wake him up, young so I
ain't understand Why she wouldn't let my daddy sleep, used to see him stand Out in the
alley through my window Drinking Hen' with his homies blowing cig' smoke Lights flashing now he running from the
Winslows Hear him screaming from my momma at the
backdoor Sometimes she wouldn't open it, sitting on the
couch Face emotionless, I
don't think they ever noticed that I
noticed it As a
kid all I
wanted a
hundred grand [Hook] [James Fauntleroy:] No, No, No, No Niggas die everyday don't know how to live, don't know how to make sense 25 to life today just got locked away, all that just to pay rent Now they're all bound on the
slave ship And they left behind their patience Thought that'd last them for a
little Pass it down for my kin, ohh [Hook]
