Let me kick it to you right quick, man
Not on some gangsta sh- man, on some real sh-
Anybody done been through the same thing
I'm sure you feel the same way
Big Phil
This for you, pimpin'
Ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
Ever had one of them days wish would've stayed home
Run into a group of - who gettin' they hate on
You walk by
They get wrong
You reply then sh- get blown
Way outta proportion
Way past discussion
Just you against them, pick one then rush 'em
Figure you'll get jumped, hell that's nothing
They don't wanna stop there now they bussin'
Now you gushin'
Ambulance rushin' you to the hospital with a bad concussion
Plus ya hit four times, but it hit ya spine
Paralyzed waist down now ya wheel chair bound
Nevermind that now you lucky to be alive
Just think it all started you fussin' with three guys
Now ya pride in the way, but ya pride is the way
You could - around, get shot, die any day
N- die everyday
All over bull-, - money, dice game, ordinary hood sh-
Could this be 'cause of hip hop music
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it?
Usually - don't know what to do
When their back against the wall so they just start shootin'
For red or for blue or for blow I guess
From Bankhead up to your projects
No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it, now I take
Time to think, before I make mistakes just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away
Ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
I ain't never been scared, I lived through tragic situation
Could've been dead lookin' back at it
Most of that sh- didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it when you out there trappin'
In apartments, hangin', smokin', and rappin'
Ni- start sh-, next thing ya know we cappin'
Get locked up then didn't even get mad
Now think about damn, what a life I had
Most of that sh-, look back, just laugh
Some sh- still look back get sad (man)
Maybe my homeboy still be around
Had I not hit the ni- in the mouth that time
I won that fight
I lost that war
I can still see my ni- walkin' out that door (man)
Who'da thought I'd never see Philant no more?
Got enough dead homies I don't want no more
Cost a ni- his job
Cost me more
I'd've took that - now for sure
Now think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripe
A ni- put his hands on me? Alright
Otherwise stand there talk sh- all night, so
'Cause I hit you, and you sue me
I shoot you, get locked up, who? Me?
No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it, now I take
Time to think, before I make mistakes just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away
Ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone (ay)
I turn my head to the east
I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west
Still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north
Swallow that pill that they call pride
That old me is dead and gone
But that new me will be alright
ย
I turn my head to the east
I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west
Still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north
Swallow that pill that they call pride
That old me is dead and gone
But that new me will be alright, 'cause
Ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ooh (hey) I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin' to find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, yeah
