DL Down3r - Jimmy

Y'all, y'all got that story to tell, this one's mine, this one's yours.
I remember Jimmy, he a sad little boy, not a bad
little boy, used to run around the block
With a sag, shitty boy, used to pee the bed, moms mad, so annoyed, yeah, so annoyed.
Jimmy's from a broken home, all alone, so we roam, searchin' for the love, didn't get
It, now he's on his own, now he's on his own
, yeah, he's on his own, searchin' for the
Love, didn't get it, now he's on his own.
Looked real hard at the stars, Jimmy couldn't cope, wake up in the morning, can of faucas
And a pack of smokes, no hope, he chokes upon his pipe dreams, smoke stoked the b
roke,
just
Keep on tightening, and nice screams of things forced out of habit, and nice dreams of
things
He can't imagine, from ice creams to beams to gettin' him clappin', they now seem to
Think it never happened.
Looking back, you took me for granted, I
wonder now, if you've come to eat those words,
who
Told you?
I adapted and rose from the ashes I promise now that your voice will go unheard
He a little bit older now, little colder now Runnin' with the homies, left that chip on the
shoulder, wow
Yeah, lit
tle Jimmy got the right stuff Hit the corner, G
-
Rod, hit him up, let him bust, blah
Yeah, the shots came all down Smoke cleared, left two laying in the ground
Not a sound was made as they hit the gas Everything happened slow
-
mo, but they movin'
fast
He got
respect, so next he gets his stripes up He got the tech, the best, the case, the fight's
up
Might bust a man, yeah, that he don't trust 12 gauges of Mossberg up in the gut
Yeah, now Jimmy just took the level He in the dirt, so he stay with a fucker shovel
A street rebel who dances with a fucker devil Family don't want him no more, they say he
fuckin' trouble
Looking back, you took me for granted I wonder now if you've come to eat those words
Cause I adapted
Lapped in and rose from the ashes
I promise now
that your voice will go unheard
See, Jimmy's not Jimmy no more
I learned to finally stand
Forty
-
four years old, I had grown into a decent man
No more in the streets with my peaches and that dragon
No one has a cedar with me chasing a habit
Cause that's in
my past, and my past is in my rear view
But it always seems to get brought up when I'm near you
A clear view into my eyes, can you see the pain?

You only happy when you see me walking in the rain
But hey, guess y'all didn't get the memo
I'm doing good, now
ain't dancing, what the fuck a devil?
I'm not a rebel, not in trouble, I'm a changed man
And even though I fuck up, I'm still a changed man
And we're the game, playing the change, that way of life
I'm not the same who bangs that and hit the pipe
I'm just
a man who sang that, yeah, once or twice
Nothing you can say to me now will ever slow my stride
Looking back, you took me for granted
I wonder now, if you've come to eat those words
Cause I adapted and rose from the ashes
I promise now that your voice will
go unheard
