Remember back in the days when MTV wasn't lame Cats still rocked walkman's bumping doctor dre My middle school age never had good grades Still had enough game to go get me laid High school was lame even tho I was hazed for daze Always wrote rhymes in class never learned a thang Still pushed through cus Mom told me too Thats why you've got my diploma it was really for you Had to find a job when the call came through Packed my bags for Tahoe and all was cool Eventually stepped in school, wouldn't you know Pell grants paying back for the struggle befo' And when the water cut off cus we couldn't afford I took showers in the locker room, thank you school board Gotsta say man life ain't that bad When you getta spit raps thanks to Uncle Sam Why the smile on my face didn't come from a laugh It's cus uncle sam's paying my ass to get some ass Ahhh yeah let me take that back My main man Sam's paying for this next dance [repeat] Chicken heads clucking when the J-birds coming U.C.L.A. legend and I'm here to start something Hit the turf on homecoming have a bottle with my funyuns Yeah you heard I rap for food well baby let me get that muffin “Ooh your so disgusting” well why ain't you running “I heard its kinda good like the blunt that your puffing” Damn right its that good you probly heard it from your mother Right after I stuffed her just so I could get your number I do not stutter, now tell me this lover You gonna step up to the plate cus I'm tryna the cure the hunger They taught me this in school yes always wear a rubber But I wanna feel you raw so lets a get a little drunker Yet we still in class, ain't even in my covers An you already out your skirt, are you beserk? I guess this works.. we in the last row any way And the only math I care to learn: whats my financial aid? Why the smile on my face didn't come from a laugh It's cus uncle sam's paying my ass to get some ass Ahhh yeah let me take that back My main man Sam's paying for this next dance “ey yo unc, get a hundred more ones, I ain't trying to leave yet.” Now I've done 5 years of school ain't got no degree But I got 5 years of memories all for free See rapping's my thing and class ain't for me Still I owe how I think to what professors teach So I might give a toast even poor out a drink Life's GTA but college taught me how to cheat Now I can talk for weeks about political beliefs Mass communication that the media repeats I ain't hear to preach though still people need to see We're all the same energy just tryna breathe (sample dilated) Why I would stay in school for as long as can be Long as your soul needs what my grandpa taught me Get the whole package not just classes but the actions Protest against the war then have sexual interactions Be careful don't be captured or even easier plastered I can say I got my Masters cus I found life's answers

“Even when you're caught, your never caught...listen up” Ok.....Out the back door not really tripping sorta dipping but sorta slipping cus I been sipping police blocked me off now they writing a ticket all cus that can of beer that I was gripping this is a business they tricking us to get riches want you to fuck up so they make money in prison I want you to listen tho cus me I cheat the system First thing you gotta do ask them for an extension That's 2 months more for you to just be chillin Who knows by then you could be swimming in millions But if your not use that second step trial by court beat em in there own nest ah yes, don't stress just a waste of breath your first appearance you'll stand up for a sec say honor I must confess I'm not guilty but you got nice breasts... let me work off that debt Kidding bout the boobs still now they gotta set bail this is where things start to weigh on a scale If you've ever missed court or got caught for a sale Better get that credit card cus they're swiping it for real But if your clean say you ain't got the money just promise to appear in a court don't miss it like a dummy get a couple months more before the next round sonny I'd keep hustling like crazy especially if you struggling Time check, 6 months since the ticket get there on time, dress nice, time to listen Now odds are in your favor to walk away clean cus them sending a pig to court for 1 ticket's sorta obscene at least if you asking me.... your supposed to fight crime not a hippy passing peace True lion up in these streets it gets crazy when I leave like someone let out the dogs who been tied up on that leash Imma pheine turned to a priest, an alien it'd seem the product of a wet dream from Notorious B.I.G. And I'll say I was sent from God, like J.C. With visions to be a legend like Jimi before I leave Still ain't drinking every night before I sleep cus I've already seen the disaster that it brings so I make sure my face don't end up in a sink spewing out what's consumed faster than my mind thinks cus everybody's slips kid no perfect alcoholic 99% have problems but they acting like they prophets they don't ever profit body's probly exhausted kicking poison out all day until they all see a coffin Why binge drinking I had to stop it.... Still gettin turnt up but ain't falling down when I'm walking Had to choose some different options like adjusting wax from chronic Getting eluhfuckingvated off the holy ghost and tonic [4 bar break] “Haha it ain't over..... just had to let you grasp some of that real quick. Lessons” Check it I wouldn't say I'm lucky just that I'm blessed so much faith in God I think it's stupid to stress the best outcome is what I always expect but don't trip knowing it's fate when he gives me less Still when we're talking court, I gotta confess My records looking cleaner than a white corvette Though it really shouldn't be for all the things I've said Guess this dirty birdy ain't meant for a federal pen even on my gutter tip police want my benjamin's for sipping out a red cup filled with toxic medicine you are no gentleman, your wife must have gone lesbian or maybe then again she dumped your ass because you feminine now that I struck blood here lets add some lemon in Ah fuck hold up.. I'm starting to go eminem Looking at myself like eluh's who's in your skeleton Just the holy ghost showing hell, heaven'll always win
