Lyrics

Okay (Upfront) Akon Stay outta trouble now son Akon Stay outta trouble now son Let me tell you what hurts the most I'm a convicted felon and I can't work No matter where I go and try to get paid They never give me a good job 'cause they are afraid that I'ma stick 'em up, oh yes, stick it Rob the manager and everybody in it That's the everyday life of a convict tryna make it Why they're saying to me The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody Me an' my niggas on the block all day Blocking dimes, lookin' out for police 'Cause this the type of shit that we go through Up in the ghetto just to make some cheese The street type got me gettin' locked up about five, six times a week And then I make mon', take it from the profit of the weed All these just to feed my seeds, yeah I gotta stop this livin' I witness one too many killings I done seen the hardest nigga street talk to the clown that was never ever found, so The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody I'm tryna stay away from trouble everyday But its hard when the things you need Picture looking at your babies in the face When they'r hungry and they need to eat I'm trying not to do wrong But they won't let me do right Even though I done changed my life Criminal records' what they judging me by, that's why The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody My Mama said, "Don't trouble nobody" My Papa said, "Don't trouble nobody" Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody And I'ma try not to trouble nobody (so, I won't trouble nobody) The judges said, "Don't trouble nobody" (can't trouble nobody) Probation said, "Don't trouble nobody" (won't trouble nobody) Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody (won't trouble nobody) And I'ma try not to trouble nobody (so, I won't trouble nobody) My Mama said, "Don't trouble nobody" (can't trouble nobody) My Papa said, "Don't trouble nobody" (won't trouble nobody) Stay outta trouble, don't trouble nobody (won't trouble nobody) And I'ma try not to trouble nobody (yeah)
