[00:47.31]We used to get up and run to the basketball court
[00:49.97]But now with everybody high NBA Live
[00:52.71]Is the closest thing we gettin' to sports
[00:54.19]These girls are 14 years old in they coochie cutter shorts
[00:56.74]It's innosence is lost
[00:58.24]But some things are still the same though, keepin' a ***** raw

[01:37.44]Touch the white or cook ******* in a pot
[01:40.18]Listening to Pac me and my brothers would box
[01:42.76]And write graffiti on the ground with the coloring chalk
[01:45.40]My brother was taught never hang with them gangs
