There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:00:00]
It's in the ABC of growing up[00:00:04]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:00:11]
It's in the ABC of growing up[00:00:15]
Yeah three women raised me[00:00:22]
Famous footwear paid me[00:00:23]
Not enough to blow up but sure enough[00:00:24]
Cause I ain't f-cking lazy[00:00:26]
If teachers thought I was dumb or crazy or both[00:00:27]
With hopes of being a Nas or Jay-Z I smoked[00:00:30]
In my chair in my braids my hair wasn't waves[00:00:33]
Being fly was priority to the lowest[00:00:35]
I would stand on my desk just to seethe[00:00:37]
World in a different way[00:00:40]
The dead society of a poet[00:00:41]
Homie I'm focused but thats something[00:00:43]
That a dude can't prove[00:00:45]
I mean fair I was damn near invisible at school[00:00:46]
So I banged for a minute cause[00:00:49]
All my n-ggas was crippin'[00:00:51]
Just me and two of my dudes blue man group[00:00:52]
Had dreams of doing things they said you can't do[00:00:55]
Cause everything ain't black and white [00:00:57]
Unless you chew bamboo[00:00:59]
So I was after big bills like a toucan dude [00:01:00]
All the while my mamma asking why[00:01:03]
I'm chewing at school[00:01:05]
She said[00:01:06]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:01:06]
It's in the ABC of growing up[00:01:10]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:01:17]
It's in the ABC of growing u[00:01:21]
So why I ain't go to college[00:01:28]
My mammas ultimatum made me say that I know I got it[00:01:30]
My n-ggas said D's buggin'[00:01:33]
Stay on your computer software de-buggin'[00:01:34]
But we holding hardware cause we thuggin'[00:01:37]
Now they in the trap house[00:01:39]
With some guns they dun borrowed[00:01:40]
And all this snow I call it empty sorrow[00:01:42]
With plans to reach the end even if[00:01:44]
I had to start slow[00:01:46]
Sold CD's in the mall making dough like Sbarro's[00:01:47]
Then I left the hood like f-ck it [00:01:50]
Don't need the cargo[00:01:52]
They banking out on you well [00:01:53]
And I don't mean Fargo[00:01:54]
But even if you leave somehow it try to follow[00:01:56]
Baby brother took a charge hotter than Lebron and Rondo[00:01:58]
Tryna keep his head up while his eyes are in the bible[00:02:00]
Cause they say your mind is idol [00:02:03]
It's a devils toy aisle[00:02:05]
My nephew looking at me cause his daddy is his idol[00:02:06]
I told him sit down this information is vital[00:02:09]
Look[00:02:12]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:02:13]
It's in the ABC of growing up[00:02:17]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:02:23]
It's in the ABC of growing u[00:02:28]
Living my life like I'm living right[00:02:35]
In the midst of a fire pit[00:02:37]
The gang banging and the violence[00:02:38]
Is the sweetest song[00:02:39]
In a room with the heart of a violin[00:02:40]
Don't violate my patience I'm waiting[00:02:42]
To kill a man as I stare at the celiing fan[00:02:44]
As a fan of these wicked streets[00:02:46]
If I gotta eat I steal like a metal peice[00:02:48]
Screaming now f-ck the police[00:02:50]
I'm dealing my cards with jokers on 'em[00:02:52]
You can disown him or stone him[00:02:53]
I'm throwin' them rocks back with a[00:02:55]
Flurry of bullets[00:02:56]
You couldn't live your life for the moment[00:02:57]
When I'm foaming at the mouth[00:02:58]
I'm as sharp as the teeth showing[00:03:00]
I'm in the back of a black Buick [00:03:02]
Finna black out like February[00:03:03]
Ay thats how blacks do it right [00:03:04]
I cut off my ears before I hear[00:03:07]
Your advice and vice versa[00:03:08]
I'm screaming for help as loud as[00:03:09]
I can but thats not working[00:03:11]
I'm working them corners like Blueprints[00:03:12]
Then cut a L on my first offence[00:03:13]
The judge threw the book at me than said this[00:03:16]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:03:19]
It's in the ABC of growing up[00:03:23]
There there baby it's just textbook stuff[00:03:29]
It's in the ABC of growing u[00:03:34]
