[00:06.86]
[00:07.86]The whole, city is mine, prettiest don
[00:10.32]I don't like the way P. Diddy did shyne with different lawyers
[00:13.00]Why it's mentioned in my rhymes? fuck it, it's just an intro
[00:15.75]Hate it or love it, like it bump it or dump it
[00:17.77]Writing, across the stomach spell God son
[00:20.16]Life is like a jungle black it's like the habitat of tarzan
[00:22.95]Matter of fact, it's harder than most can imagine
[00:25.06]Most of my niggaz packed in correctional facilities
[00:27.56]Half of them passed on, mack strong, couple of shots
[00:30.12]May the ghost leave a body, now they hauntin the block
[00:32.48]Where they used to stand at, somebody's takin they place
[00:35.03]A younger man perhaps, hand slaps, can't understand that
[00:37.75]Same walk, same talk, I wonder can that be possible
[00:40.70]A thug dies, another step inside his shoes
[00:42.97]And they will hurt you, layin low with a bottle
[00:45.04]I'm blowin circles, my state of mind purple
[00:51.54]
[00:52.54]Light it, light it, uhh
[00:59.93]Yeah.. light it up, light it up, uhh
[01:06.54]
[01:07.54]Ya'll just wanna deal with drama
[01:09.08]Talk about niggaz who got things
[01:10.64]You'll ready to kill his momma
[01:12.19]Everything you went to is underworld related
[01:14.53]You sell your man out, not even your girl is sacred
[01:17.14]You don't trust a soul, hold up, you moldin soldiers
[01:19.65]To pull guns quick and always look behind the shoulder
[01:21.98]Think of how many dudes died tryin to be down with you
[01:24.60]Everybody's under six feet of ground but you
[01:26.91]Still standin, still roamin through the streets, that's real
[01:29.48]You a survivor, knowin all the beef is ill
[01:31.86]You got a bunch of thugs witchu even now that's ready
[01:34.45]Trustin your judgment, quick to put it down, they deadly
[01:36.91]The hood love you but behind your back they pray for the day
[01:39.31]A bullet hit your heart and ambulances take you away
[01:41.80]That ain't love it's hate, think of all the mothers at wakes
[01:44.16]Whose sons you killed, and you ain't got a cut on your face?
[01:46.60]Unmarked police cars roam the streets hard, the heat is god
[01:49.66]Somebody tell these shorties reach for the stars
[01:51.62]Instead they tell 'em how to reach through the bars, holdin a mirror
[01:54.28]Lookin down a tear in jail, makin weapons to kill ya
[01:56.70]We smoke three tokes nigga pour more henny
[01:59.09]He sighs with eyes that seen a war too many
[02:01.63]Cold-blooded murderers, universal
[02:03.95]Hood to hood, blowin smoke, state of mind is purple
[02:07.69]
[02:08.69]Light up, light up light up, uhh
[02:13.55]Light it up.. light it up, light it up, uhh
[02:19.17]Uhh.. uhh, uhh, light it, light it, uhh
[02:25.55]
[02:26.55]These hot-headed youngsters, always get into trouble
[02:28.86]Reactin before thinkin, they easily irritated
[02:31.51]And murder's premeditated, it's a fact that we sinkin
[02:33.90]When we should be climbin, in a nutshell, it's just jail
[02:36.35]Drug sales, liquor and diamonds, niggaz rewindi
[02:38.74]Instead of movin forward, to blow up so what's the science?
[02:41.39]People shoutin, police pushin the crowd
[02:43.75]And on the ground's a young soldier, with meat hangin out him
[02:46.39]Am I hallucinatin off the hazin?
[02:48.30]Or did I just see a nigga shoot another nigga's face in
[02:51.30]It's a ugly nation, cops circle the block with mug shots
[02:54.07]Photograph pictures of, suspect faces
[02:56.36]It's usually, two or three niggaz who innocent
[02:58.60]But if they lock the wrong ones up, then someone'l snitch
[03:01.14]A divide and fall strategy, they aren't fair
[03:03.72]I dig in my bag of weed that's covered with orange hair
[03:06.17]This color purple l make whoopi give me the pussy
[03:08.64]You silly, oprah and danny glover gots to feel me
[03:11.02]This is how I escape the madness, too much of anything l hurt you
[03:14.21]So, my state of mind's all purple
[03:17.21]
