Ay, yea yea yea, Wa wooh ooh
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa wooh ooh
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa wooh ooh
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa wooh ooh
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa wooh ooh
Back in penitentiary
Long gone misery
Left me alone, I grew up
Amongst the mad breed
So my mind
Couldn't find a place to rest
With me got this thug plaque
Tattoo on my chest
Nigga never sleep
When am living in da past
Stare in the lights
Mi pop off and first to blast
He knew my father
He was a gangsta in the streets
But now hes gone
Mi deh ya so still a plead
Till him rest in peace
Now am heading for the treach
I remember me
So many homies in the cemetery
Seem as if I am a missionary
But when am gone
Know my momma
Gonna cry for me
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Take me away
From all the pressure
And all the pain,
Show me some happiness again
I'm going blind
I spend my time down stairs
I live in bed
You know my destiny is hell
But till I fear
My mind is so misleading
I couldn't see
I gotta brain full of demons
Tryin' to break free
I know one day
When, (Ay)
But when I die
I be steppin' with my father
And the most high w
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying

Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
No one knows my struggle
They don't know my trouble
Son you must go on
Because ya momma love you
They don't wanna see me rich
They wanna see me poor
Gangsta 4 life, I see you running
Sing some more
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh
Dying
Ay, yea yea yea, Wa ooh ooh

Back in penitentiary
I was in prison before
Long gone misery
A lot of pain in the past
Left me alone, I grew up
I was left alone and had to grow up on my own
Amongst the mad breed
I grew up with other troublemakers
So my mind
My thoughts
Couldn't find a place to rest
My thoughts were always bothering me, never at peace
With me got this thug plaque
I have a thug mentality
Tattoo on my chest
I have a tattoo on my chest proving my loyalty to the thug life
Nigga never sleep
I never sleep
When am living in da past
When I think about the past
Stare in the lights
I'm alert and watchful
Mi pop off and first to blast
I quickly react with force
He knew my father
Someone knows my dad
He was a gangsta in the streets
My dad was a gangster
But now hes gone
But he's no longer here
Mi deh ya so still a plead
I'm still here, begging and pleading
Till him rest in peace
Until he's resting in peace
Now am heading for the treach
Now I'm heading towards trouble
I remember me
I remember myself
So many homies in the cemetery
So many of my friends are dead and buried
Seem as if I am a missionary
I feel like I'm on a mission
But when am gone
But when I'm gone
Know my momma gonna cry for me
I know my mom will be sad when I die
Take me away
Take me away from this situation
From all the pressure
From all the stress and problems
And all the pain
And from all the physical and emotional pain
Show me some happiness again
I want to be happy again
I'm going blind
I'm losing sight of what's important
I spend my time down stairs
I spend my time in a bad place
I live in bed
I spend all my time in bed
You know my destiny is hell
I feel like my future is bleak
But till I fear
But I'm scared
My mind is so misleading
My thoughts are confusing me
I couldn't see
I can't see the truth
I gotta brain full of demons
My mind is consumed by negative thoughts
Tryin' to break free
I'm trying to escape these negative thoughts
I know one day, (Ay)
I know one day
But when I die
But when I die
I be steppin' with my father
I'll be reunited with my dad
And the most high w
And God
No one knows my struggle
No one understands my struggle
They don't know my trouble
They don't know my problems and difficulties
Son you must go on
I need to keep going
Because ya momma love you
Because my mother loves me
They don't wanna see me rich
They don't want to see me succeed
They wanna see me poor
They want to see me fail
Gangsta 4 life, I see you running
I'll always be a gangster, even if people run from me
