Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it′s like (yeah)
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it′s-
Let me tell you what it's like (what it′s like)
When you fightin' for your life (damn)
Let me tell you what it′s-
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
I′m finna tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you wha-


Let me tell you what it′s like (what?)
Fightin' 45 to life (damn)
In the room with a hype boy nigga you don′t like (what?)
When you seen your homie
First thing that he gave you was a knife (damn)
I'm tryna tell you that it′s real (yeah)
You don't know how it feel (damn)
When you lose that appeal, it's like speedin′ down a hill (vroom)
And your brakes don′t work, pray to God that he take that wheel

You don't know how it go (plea)
You hope the witness don′t show (shit)
Court date's comin′ slow
Baby mama, she a ho (bitch)
And the opps still slidin' tryna find out who killed fo′
Boy, this shit ain't no joke (nah), and I know this fo'sho
′Cause the judge first offer 54 (damn, damn)
Bro, he think you a ho (ho)
Tell your lawyer let′s go
Suit up, nigga, it's time for war


Let me tell you what it′s like
Let me tell you what it's like (what it′s like)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it′s like (yeah)
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it′s-
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
When you fightin′ for your life (damn)
Let me tell you what it's-
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
I′m finna tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it′s-
Let me tell you what it′s like

Process go slow (go slow)
I can't sleep, it′s too cold (it's too cold)
My bond no hold
First stop Stateville ′cause i'm still on parole (damn, damn)
See I was probably somewhere in the hole
Caught a opp that killed bro
Beat his ass, boy, you know how it go (what, what?)
And I was in the cell with D Rose
When they gave him that time, on O shit hurt my soul
(Damn, damn)

Don′t quit, gotta fight 'em (gotta fight 'em)
You young, you black, they don′t like you (they don′t like you)
You got a son on the way, if they take you away
He could fuck around and be just like you (just like you)
Got his hands on the Glock and the rifle (and the rifle)
Tryna put some hot in a rival (boom, boom)
Lookin' up, time flyin′ right by you (damn)
Time's hard, gotta lean on the bible

Let me tell you what it′s like
Let me tell you what it's like (what it′s like)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like (yeah)
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it′s like)
Let me tell you what it's-
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
When you fightin′ for your life (damn)
Let me tell you what it's-
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
I'm finna tell you what it′s like (what it′s like)
Let me tell you wha-

Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it′s like
Let me tell you what it's like (yeah)
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's-
Let me tell you what it′s like (what it′s like)
When you fightin' for your life (damn)
Let me tell you what it′s-
Let me tell you what it's like (what it′s like)
I'm finna tell you what it′s like (what it's like)
Let me tell you wha-

Ay, on a serious note, though
Like, on some for real shit
These people ain't fuckin′ playin′ with us, man
Ay, when I got booked back in 2014 for that shit
And my arresting officer, he brought me downstairs
To get processed and three type of them came out
One of 'em get that... ye, Nine, that′s my work
And that other officer got that D-Rose
"Yeah, that's my work"
The other officer got that CDAI, "Yeah that′s my work"
And what they mean by when they say that's their work
Is that they opened a charge and put them away
That′s their work you know?
So they playin' this shit like a game, like givin' us time
Like a game, see what I′m sayin′?
This shit ain't no joke
DJ on the beat so it′s a banger
