We used to piss on the floors in the bathroom in elementary

I never thought you'd end up in the penitentiary

Readin' these letters you're sendin me sippin' Hennessy

Watchin' my back for enemies, they wanna see me buried

I heard you had to put some work in when you got there

Don't wanna rot there, heard **** plot there

So what you doin' 'bout 5 to 10?

Collect for Robert Greene from the federal pen

****, what you do to get yourself in jail?

He said, "I'm fightin' double murder, 25 with an L

Can you help me with my lawyer? I'm gettin' kinda broke"

Good girl gone bad, **** got smoked

Can't talk too much about it on the phone

Po-po would listen, peep game

Your ass'd never come home, see

Damn, you can't escape the drama

Don't be stressin, I'ma give the scrilla to your baby momma

It's dollar bill Susanville collect for me

Said he was glad I'm in the rap game

'Cause in the concrete zoo you live your life like the crap game

We used to be two lil' bad ass kids, reminiscin' on the dirt that we did

Back in the day we had to stick together, man

Gettin' our hustle on in any type of weather, man

Takin' turns while we used to keep watch out for the cops

Never no squabble, we was compromisin' tradin' knots

Said he was seein' all the homies up inside stressin'

Havin' suicidal thoughts over life's lessons

My peoples tryin' to call and see if I'm at home yet

With hella **** in the back yellin' phone checks (Get off the phone 'fore you get stole on)

They sent my patna to the hole again before the conversation even began

Hello, you reached the East Bay gangster S-P-I-C-E

Well, it's the homie from the federal penitentiary

What you been doin', black? You call your momma back?

She's stressin' hard as you off where you at

I see you sendin' pictures with your yokes on

Braided hair with them crazy black Locs on

Mad doggin', pen hoggin', throwin' up the hood

Be right here smokin' broccoli with me if you could

Peep this

My lil patna been in jail so long that he ain't even thinkin' 'bout comin' home (Fool)

He got the only family that he know besides his momma in the pen with him

And all the old school comrades is in with him

I didn't have to ask him what he pulled them licks for

You get them pictures that I send you off my '64?

Yeah, you know the one we always used to ride in

The one them suckers tried to run up on the side in

We strapped 'em quick as soon as they tried to get in

Never forget the dirty work you put in
