[Verse]
Mama call me on the phone and she just started cryin’
Tell me to change my ways, everybody dyin’
Mama, I ain’t even gon’ lie I been tryin’
But I love hittin’ them licks, I can’t deny it
Ridin round all day I’m lookin' for a play, yeah
Soon as I get the play, hit my nigga Trey, yeah
We 'gon hit them licks, and then we split em’ both ways, yeah
Hope it go smooth or we put em in a grave, yeah
I can’t think, I can’t sleep at night, yeah
I can’t dream, I have dreamless nights, yeah
Sometimes I scheme and I know it ain’t right, yeah
But one day imma pay the price yeah
Everybody fake ain’t nobody real
I can’t trust a soul because that’s how a nigga get killed
Do the dirt on my own I can’t face them years
So much pain in my body that I’m holding’ back my tears, yeah

[Interlude]
I can’t think, I can’t sleep at night, yeah
I can’t dream, I have dreamless nights, yeah
Sometimes I scheme and I know it ain’t right yeah
But one day I’m gone pay the price, yeah
I-I shine, and no one else shines, but I think everybody shines at different things, and a lot of things I can't do

[Verse]
Mama call me on the phone and she just started cryin’
