[00:05.21]Now I used to walk with the gun now I walk like a man
[00:07.93]And I walk what I talk and I walk never ran
[00:10.45]And I never say never but I mean hardly ever
[00:13.25]And if shootin' is the solution then you're not that clever
[00:15.78]If you don't know shit then you still know bette
[00:18.36]Human life is so precious it could never be measured
[00:20.93]Have you ever had a load of it c**k back the heat
[00:23.72]Poppin' on the next b***h while he walkin' up the stree
[00:26.38]Trigger off safety spacin an opportunity
[00:29.00]These niggas wanna waste me it ain't nothing new to m
[00:31.73]Soon as he walked by I was ready to bust
[00:34.00]But he just posted up like he was waitin' on the bus
[00:36.77]Now I'm all pumped up with a steroid trigger
[00:39.22]Cause most of y'all are easy just some paranoid nigga
[00:42.14]Used to walk with a gun but I never did use it
[00:44.80]What's the point of holdin' heat if you ain't gon' shoot it
[00:47.36]Stupid
[00:50.37]
[00:57.76]It was a late night sunset me and him out
[01:00.88]Lookin' at the ladies to come up on some trim
[01:03.06]Everybody wildin' out cause the summer's about to end
[01:05.59]He had the hypnotic he was missin with the hand
[01:08.27]Of that mean green laid back with the deep lean on low pro shit
[01:12.09]That's how we rolled on the scene
[01:13.77]Two girls lookin' probably in they late teens
[01:16.18]But these days you can't tell but I figured what the hell
[01:18.69]So we yell out: Hey girl they yell back
[01:21.16]Maybe two in the front maybe two in the back
[01:23.70]But they had this dark tint couldn't see through the black
[01:26.45]We roll up ask 'em "where the party at "
[01:29.14]They just start to laugh and I knew it was a trap
[01:31.73]But I couldn't roll out cause the strip was so packed
[01:34.32]Now I'm lookin at this girl in this mother****er' ha
[01:37.12]Start talkin' that shit like we was on some shi
[01:39.70]My nigga used to bang but we ain't on no thug shi
[01:42.34]I tried to dismantle it but you know Los Angeles
[01:44.73]This b***h kept talkin' so my boy had to handle i
[01:47.44]He jumped out the Lex snatched the dude out his hat
[01:49.97]I put it in park jumped out to get his back
[01:52.51]But as I did that I heared two shots
[01:55.28]I turned to my right and I see my dude drop
[01:57.77]Time stopped coudln't believe what I seen
[02:00.39]I was struck by reality when the two girls screamed
[02:03.08]I saw his killer stand up put the gun in his jeans
[02:05.63]Saw him wince from the pain as the heat burned his waist
[02:08.35]Then he turned up the block disappeared without a trace
[02:10.81]I remember his face but what I remember most
[02:13.43]Was when I got to my knees and held my b***h clos
[02:16.02]And asked not to leave us in the name of Christ Jesus
[02:18.54]But he's gone and all I got left is his blood on my sneakers
[02:21.15]It was a year to this day that my best friend died
[02:23.95]For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
[02:26.42]And I tried to pretend everything was fine
[02:29.09]But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine
[02:31.88]T was a year to this day that my best friend died
[02:34.46]For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
[02:36.84]And I tried to pretend everything was fine
[02:39.43]But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine
[02:43.07]
[02:53.00]The day began with me standin' at his grave with his mother
[02:55.57]His old girlfriend his two younger brothers
[02:58.14]We said a few words faces covered with tears
[03:00.68]How we missed him so much and we wished he was here
[03:03.33]Then his girl said a poem put some roses on his stone
[03:06.02]And we said our goodbyes and they all went home
[03:08.57]I thought I'd use this time for me and him to be alone
[03:11.31]I broke out the Hen' poured a little out for him
[03:13.85]Told him who was gettin' married who had went to the pen
[03:16.55]How the homie named his newborn son after him
[03:19.01]But as the sun went down the talk came to an end
[03:21.86]So I said a quick prayer amen
[03:24.19]And I shook in the lab plus the well wrote tracks
[03:27.07]And I headed up saw the homie Eyezeer
[03:29.63]I asked him what he doin' he was way out of bound
[03:32.52]That he had a freak that lived on that side of town
[03:35.00]He always kept the heat just in case it went down
[03:37.61]A clown I rolled down my window 'bout to light a ciga-
[03:41.53]Hey Is that that nigga that hey give me the mother****ing gu
[03:45.24]Man drive around the block and post up for a minute
[03:48.32]I hit you on the shirt hit the corner nigga bend i
[03:51.01]Splendid now with vengeance in my grasp
[03:53.56]I couldn't dream of a better day for me to catch his ass
[03:56.23]Slippin while he dippin into the ride by himself
[03:58.73]I slid up behind him in the shadows hella stealth
[04:01.41]He started to breakin' stuff I said I didn't want a dime
[04:04.24]Remember what you was doin' last year at this time
[04:06.80]He looked into my eyes with both shock and surprise
[04:09.31]Then I split his face with the Glock right before he could reply
[04:12.13]He cried as I pressed the heat against his cheek
[04:14.50]Then I squeeze two times for the homie rest in peace
[04:17.15]It was a year to this day that my best friend died
[04:19.83]For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
[04:22.32]And I tried to pretend everything was fine
[04:24.84]But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine
[04:27.48]It was a year to this day that my best friend died
[04:30.38]For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
[04:32.84]And I thought that's what I wanted until the problem was confronted
[04:35.51]
[04:36.06]Now I'm haunted by remorse that I wished I hadn't done it

Now I used to walk with the gun now I walk like a man
And I walk what I talk and I walk never ran
And I never say never but I mean hardly ever
And if shootin' is the solution then you're not that clever
If you don't know shit then you still know bette
Human life is so precious it could never be measured
Have you ever had a load of it c**k back the heat
Poppin' on the next b***h while he walkin' up the stree
Trigger off safety spacin an opportunity
These niggas wanna waste me it ain't nothing new to m
Soon as he walked by I was ready to bust
But he just posted up like he was waitin' on the bus
Now I'm all pumped up with a steroid trigger
Cause most of y'all are easy just some paranoid nigga
Used to walk with a gun but I never did use it
What's the point of holdin' heat if you ain't gon' shoot it
Stupid
It was a late night sunset me and him out
Lookin' at the ladies to come up on some trim
Everybody wildin' out cause the summer's about to end
He had the hypnotic he was missin with the hand
Of that mean green laid back with the deep lean on low pro shit
That's how we rolled on the scene
Two girls lookin' probably in they late teens
