Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Uh, thank the lord for my fans 'cause they love Z-Ro
I get mail but ain't no letters from nobody I know
It's like I been forgotten ever since I got locked down
But when my feet hit the ground, that's when
Phony homies come back around
[Verse 2]
I'm talking fair-weather friends that kick it with you
When the sun shine on you, but when the fair weather ends,  it's over
Nobody screaming, free Z-Ro like Bun-B was screaming, free Pimp-C
Except Flipperachi and Pimp-C
[Verse 3]
But I'm still livin' and still pimpin' my pen
I swam surrounded by women, most offenders ain't men
They gossip like they sitting int he beauty shop
Can't own nothin' too visi, criticizing what the next man got
[Verse 4]
And all I hear is, I ain't gon'  sack no groceries or work in fast food
I would sweep the floor at McDonald's if I had to
Fuck pride, homie, I'm tryna raise my daughter
Hoping I make parol  so I can work on being a father
[Verse 5]
Another birthday came and went, still went right
I try to sleep all day long so I can write all night
No business, no ring, the only time I get to leave my cell
Is at chow time and showers, minutes feel as if they're hours
[Verse 6]
I read books, trying to put some fat on my head
Dreaming about when I get back on my bread
So many people want me to fall, I know they love to see me on lock
But in a minute I'll be back on top, in due time
[Verse 7]
(Time waits for no one)
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(I bump my head against the wall learning right from wrong)
(I fall off every ten minutes on this mission I'm on)
[Verse 8]
(Time waits for no one)
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(I never said I was perfect, man, I come from the block)
(If it wasn't for time I'd be stuck in the same spot)
[Verse 9]
I can breathe again pass me a blunt that's fat
Plus my strap so I can face my enemies again
July 9th, ain't no mo' commissary, catch me at Papa Dough's
Time to get tapered by free will and shop for clothes
[Verse 10]
Plus I gotta leave certain people alone
That could determine if I go back to prison or stay at home
Bottom line, you ain't gotta be in jail or be doin' time
[Verse 11]
It ain't like it's hard to tell, I reentered the game
Man, nothing change except the year
When I left we were dying and we're still here, yeah
As if we feel nothin', man enough to kill something
But two cowards who come together and deal somethin'
[Verse 12]
Violent crime, the caskets are smaller in size
How the hell a ten year old get shot eleven times?
Prison ain't changed me, I'm the same ****
Not a trouble maker but y'all know I'll never hesitate pull a trigger
[Verse 13]
They say my ghetto instrumental is influential to blacks
I just convince how far I'll go not to get put on my back
I never made a man kill a man even if he was bumpin'
My song at the time, murder was his original plan
[Verse 14]
I understand, it's time to be born and a time to die
Time to laugh and a time to cry, a time to look for something
And a time to consider it lost, time for sadness and a time for joy
Time to feel and a time to destroy
[Verse 15]
A time for was and peace, a time for silence and a time to speak
And I think it's time we come together on these streets
Fill up churches Sunday mornings like clubs Saturday nights
And have a good worship service just like we have a good fight
[Verse 16]
'Cause when the trumpet blows, it's over, time is at its end
If you don't wanna burn forever, repent for all of your sin
And, homie, I don't give a fuck if you blood or cuz
Get your relationship right with the one above
'Cause it's almost time
[Verse 17]
(Time waits for no one)
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(I bump my head against the wall learning right from wrong)
(I fall off every ten minutes on this mission I'm on)
[Verse 18]
(Time waits for no one)
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
(I never said I was perfect, man, I come from the block)
(If it wasn't for time I'd be stuck in the same spot)
