Stick Up Kid

Yo, ya'll ain't gonna like what I'm about to tell y'all

Ya'll gain a wrong doin' the deal this time, boy

Yeah, I'ma take ya'll back

How it use to be

Back in the '90s

Oh, yeah, yeah

Yo

Pictured everything else, now picture this

Rollin' in my 2-door Monte Carlo

Lookin' for somebody I can borrow

Five or ten dollars till tomorrow

I'm doin' bad, ya'll

And I smoked my last pack of cigarettes today

You ever seen a **** diggin' in the ashtray

It's a crumbin' and humblin' sight to see

I'm doing bad, ya'll

And they teasin' me with these 23's

And these DVD's in their ride

Then they pass me by

By, by, by, by, by

And have the nerve to wonder why

I be robbin' these ****

I'm a stick up kid

That's how I live, I admit it

And I be robbin' these ****

I'm a stick up kid

And if you're doin' too much, I'm comin' to get it

I be robbing these ****

I'm a stick up kid

That's how I live

I admit it

I be robbin' these ****

I'm a stick up kid

And if you're doin' too much, I'm comin' to get it

See, lately, I've been thinkin' 'bout saving my soul

And do prayers make it to heaven from the ghetto?

I asked all my friends, but they all say they don't know

It's all bad, ya'll

And the preacher talkin' 'bout some stuff he don't know

When church done become a fuckin' fashion show

And they won't let a **** in with these timbos

It's all bad, ya'll

And they teasin' me with these 23's

And these DVD's in their ride

And they pass me by

By, by, by, by, by

And have the nerve to wonder why

Wonder why I be robbing these ****

I'm a stick up kid

That's how I live

I admit it

I be robbin' these ****

I'm a stick up kid

And if you're doin' too much, I'm comin' to get it

I be robbin' these ****

I'm a stick up kid

That's how I live

I admit it

Oh, I be

I'm a stick up kid

And if you're doin' too much, I'm comin' to get it

Nobody knows the trouble I see

Nobody knows but me

Nobody knows the trouble I see

Nobody knows but me

Oh, nobody knows the trouble I see

Nobody knows but me

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what, yeah

Huh, are ya mad?

You mad at who?

Yeah, and

That only lasted briefly

You know and then here come the police

Handcuffing a brother taking me

Throwing me in the cage with the rest of them

You know, I guess it was true

What mamma always said

The same thing that make ya laugh

Will make you cry
