On the Outside Lookin In — текст песни (Eightball and MJG)

[MJG]
The hammer hit the table leaving me with 7 years
My history was shit so I could`nt shed a tear
My future was a wall, surrounded by a cage
Them laws got me locked down damn at an early age
The only thing I got is a lust for the streets, the shit I gotta learn
And the shit I gotta teach
I`m living for the minute, muthafuck a whole hour
And I aint pickin shit up when It falls in the shower
My lady sends me pictures with her pussy in the air,
but she aint really there
So I don`t really care
The only thing I got is a muthafuckin dinner
So fuck what I had, cuz where I`m at I`m a beginner
I gots to be a winner in this muthafuckin mix up
Get my shit together, scope it out and try to fix up
Some confidence to keep a real nigga going strong,
the system is my house, the system is my home,
the system was designed to keep a brotha on his back
The system crackers caught me that`s exactly where I`m at
My lawyer was a snitch, got me framed started buggin
My muthafuckin phone and the judge was his cousin
It`s hard thinkin positive with negative around me
So I had to relate to the grounds that surrounded thee
House and The Mound where I chill
with the niggaz who respected a real nigga
Cuz MJG respect them too
So I had to survive living my life with the street rule stay cool
Disregard school and make my money fool, check it
It`s hard to understand where I`m comin from if you on the outside talkin shit
Lookin in, then again if you was on the inside lookin out, 9 times outta 10
You would probably be my friend
Nigga how you figure, the system`s gonna help ya
The ghetto`s where they put ya, the ghetto`s where they kept ya
See deep down in my heart I had this urge to go astray
And knock out all my problems in one ordinary day
The system got me thinkin cuz I`m locked down in a tank
They saw a brotha strokin, so they had to make his ship sank
So I can`t get mixed up with them devils or no other
With Ani.....mosity I hate when It`s a brother, none other
Than a buck, duck, hoodle up, shootin up thangs in the wind
I`m in the Pen, you outside lookin in
