Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Comp me a cigarette, dog
They got me feelin' krazy than a muthafucka
I got badass in this muthafucka
[Verse 2]
Puffin' on lye, hopin' that it get me high
(Makaveli the Don, representin' the outlaws)
[Verse 3]
Got a **** goin' krazy
(Badass representin' the LBC crew)
[Verse 4]
Oh yeah, I feel crazy
(What you wanna do? You know how we do it)
[Verse 5]
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
I got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy, tell 'em about it
[Verse 6]
Last year was a hard one, but life goes on
Hold my head against the wall, I'm learning right from wrong
They say my ghetto instrumental, detrimental to kids
As if they can't see the misery in which they live
Blame me for the outcome, ban my records, check it
Don't have to bump this, but please respect it
I took a minus and now the hard times are behind us
Turned it to a plus, now they stuck livin' blinded
[Verse 7]
Hennessy got me feelin' bad, time to stop drinkin'
Rollin' in my drop top Jag', what's that cop thinkin'?
Sittin' in my car, watch the stars and smoke
I came a long way but still I've got so far to go
Dear mama, don't worry I'ma watch for snakes
Tell Setchu that I love her, but it's hard today
I got the letter that she sent me and I cried for weeks
This what came out when I tried to speak, all I heard was
[Verse 8]
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
[Verse 9]
I see Bloods and Crips runnin' up the hill
Lookin' for a better way
My brothers and sisters, it's time to bail
'Cause even thug **** pray
Hopin' God hear me, I entered the game, look how much I changed
I'm no longer innocent, casualties of fame
Made a lot of money, seen a lot of places
And I swear, I seen a peaceful smile on my mama's face
When I gave her the keys to her own house
This yo land, your only son done became a man
[Verse 10]
Watchin' time fly, I love my people, do or die
But I wonder why, we scared to let each other fly
June one six seven one, the day
Mama pushed me out her womb, told me
****, get paid
No one can understand me, the black sheep
Outcasted from my family, now packin' heat
I run the streets, a young runaway, live for today
When he died, I could hear him say, come on
[Verse 11]
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
[Verse 12]
God, help me out here, 'cause I'm possessed
I need the root of all evil for my stress
This money's like a strong prescription drug
It's got me addicted to the pleasure and the pain it inflicted
Somethin' 'bout the paper with the pictures of the presidents' head
Damn, it's like a muthafuckin' plague that's spread
It's epidemic, forgotten, forgotten it got worse
I keep my head on straight, makin' money 'cause it's cursed
[Verse 13]
Makin' money makes a difference day by day
So I gotta stay paid, no doubt, day in and day out
This life is like a vicious cycle called fightin' to live
No matter how hard you try, it's a def, you gotta die
A lot of my peers didn't make it to the years to come
Did life do 'em right or did life leave 'em dumb?
Who has the answers? I wonder, I turn to my elders
They aged and experienced but they can't even tell ya
Or tell me that there'll be light at the end of the road
'Cause they don't even know
[Verse 14]
A million things run through my mind
You ain't gotta be in jail to be doin' time
You ain't gotta be in jail to be doin' time
[Verse 15]
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
I got a **** goin' krazy
Krazy, I feel krazy, krazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
I feel krazy
Time goes by, puffin' on lye, hopin' that it gets me high
Got a **** goin' krazy
Krazy
[Verse 16]
One time for my **** in the jail cells
One time for my **** doin' life in hell
One time for my **** in the jail cells
One time for my **** doin' life in hell
One time for my **** on death row
One time for my **** on death row
One time for my **** livin' broke
One time for my **** livin' broke
One time for my **** in the jail cells
