[00:00.201][Intro: Fat Joe]
[00:00.333]Anything you wanna let *****s know out there
[00:02.344]On some real street ****
[00:04.671]Where you ain't gotta hold your tongue
[00:06.190]Kna' mean?
[00:06.727]What's the deal?
[00:07.189]

[00:25.051]Forgive me, I'ma ***** from the projects
[00:27.531]Forgive me, I'ma ***** from the 'jects
[00:30.068]No apologies for my fresh, behavior
[00:32.818]No preachers the church has, could save ya
[00:35.442]Shots ring out, you get stretched, and laid up
[00:37.875]Streets got drugs, guns, and sex, for sale
[00:40.224]So, forgive me, I'ma ***** from the projects
[00:42.580]Forgive me, I'ma ***** from the projects
[00:45.126]Forgive me, I'ma ***** from the projects

[00:50.465][Verse: Fat Joe]
[00:50.767]Forgive me, I'm a milli from the projects
[00:52.528]Drip team, triple beam, and the Pyrex
[00:54.934]Suicide, it's a su-i-cide
[00:57.225]All these lights above my head, why are you surprised
[00:59.707]Every floor of my building got a precious
[01:01.706]Now I'm gripping on the ice inside your precious
[01:04.307]Get my movie on, in the Louis V-ton
[01:06.882]Let my ***** make your ***** look like Precious, uh
[01:09.815]And I ain't ever trust no chick
[01:12.070]If she workin' at the club then that's not yo' *****
[01:14.523]All my *****s got scarface tatted
[01:17.047]Got hittas on deck and they not gon' miss
[01:19.691]

[01:49.922][Verse: Dre]
[01:50.155]Forgive me, I'm a ***** out the projects
[01:52.025]From where they pick out all the NFL prospects
[01:54.401]Either you rich or you poor, with simple concepts
[01:56.900]Or cooking up a tote and a rocket wit' some progress
[01:59.606]But these days, you gotta watch what you post
[02:01.569]Tryna speak truth or power get you shot like ghost, woah
[02:04.284]But **** it, I'm a ***** out the ghetto
[02:06.746]Where when all else fails, you start hustlin' the Holy Ghost (Church)
[02:09.462]You wanna be owners or [?]
[02:11.866]Freezer cold on, beaches sippin' Corona
[02:14.308]You ain't a rebel, the second you choose a set, *****
