Verse 1
G
Back in the days,
when I was a young buck
Cm
G
Stuck like a truck gettin' shit outta luck
Times was rough and
I didn't have a plan
I was barely on the edge
of my life as a man
It's really fucked up
when there's dope in the crib
Cm
No food in the kitchen for the
G
motherfuckin' kids
That's why a young nigga learned how to steal,
see
Shopliftin' laid me a whole lotta meals
Verse 2
G
But I remember days when the
cupboard was bare, and
Eb
Cm
G
Life was unfair, but who the fuck cares?
I still hear mama, what she used to tell me
Cm
G
That you don't get shit in this life for free
And even if I never ever make
Cm
it to the mountain top
G
Fuck it, I fight for my hip- hop
Verse 3
G
Not everybody can relate to
what I been through
Cm
Even though some front,
G
and they try to pretend to
Know about the life of
a kid and the strife
Cm
Where he has to live in the
G
shadow of a base- pipe
Verse 4
G
Good goes to bad,
bad goes to worse
Cm
And pretty soon he's stealing
G
from his own mama's purse
So clean out ya ears and open up your eyes
Cm
I reach out to touch,
G
but somebody moved the sky
My stomach is growlin', word is born
'Cause all I had for dinner
was a can- o- corn
Verse 5
G
A can- o- corn, a can- o- corn
Gm
All I had for dinner was a can- o- corn
G
A can- o- corn, a can- o- corn
Before I went to school, I had a can- o- corn
A can- o- corn, a can- o- corn
I tried to get full off a can- o- corn
C
A can- o- corn, a can- o- corn
G
Cm
That's all the fuck that
G
we had in the kitchen
Verse 6
G
A few years later,
I pledge allegiance to the set
Cm
G
I'm growin' up, but I ain't grown yet
It's funny how the strain
and a life filled with pain
Cm
Can sometimes leave a bitch
G
stained on the brain
Verse 7
G
I'm sittin' in the restaurant,
guardin' my food like an eagle
Cm
G
Pickin' up scraps like a seagull
Waitin' on the people at the
Cm
next table to leave a tip
G
So I can put it in my pocket
Verse 8
G
Phony Easter Bunny,
Santa Claus and the stork
Cm
We was poor as fuck,
G
so we ate a lot of pork
And it ain't no motherfuckin'
way no how
When it comes up,
Cm
Gm
I let you bring me down
So I stick to the boots,
G
and I'm down with a mad group
Cm
Of gangstas and hoodlums,
Gm
G
but you can call 'em scroops
Verse 9
G
Give me liberty, or give me death 'Cause
Cm
a man without pride
G
ain't got shit left, huh
And now that I'm older
with kids of my own
Cm
I put me in the pot where it
G
used to be a bone
Getcha self together, word is born
'Cause a man can't live on a can-
