Smoke One Productions - On the Outside Lookin In lyrics

[MJG] The hammer hit the table leaving me with 7 years My history was sh** 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 sh** I gotta learn And the sh** I gotta teach I'm living for the minute, muthaf** a whole hour And I ain't pickin sh** up when It falls in the shower My lady sends me pictures with her p**y in the air But she ain't really there So I don't really care The only thing I got is a muthaf**in dinner So f** what I had, cuz where I'm at I'm a beginner I gots to be a winner in this muthaf**in mix up Get my sh** together, scope it out and try to fix up Some confidence to keep a real n***a 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 muthaf**in 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 n***as who respected a real n***a 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 sh** Lookin in, then again if you was on the inside lookin out, 9 times outta 10 You would probably be my friend n***a 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
