The hammer hit the table leaving me with 7 years
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+My history was ****ed so I couldn't shed a tea
My future was a wall, surrounded by a cage
Them laws got me locked down damn at an early age
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+The only thing I got is a lust for the streets, the ****ing I gotta lear
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+And the ****ing I gotta teac
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+I'm living for the minute, mutha****a a whole hou
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+And I ain't picking ****ing up when It falls in the showe
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+My lady sends me pictures with her p***y in the ai
But she ain't really there
So I don't really care
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+The only thing I got is a mutha****a dinne
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+So ****ing what I had, cuz where I'm at I'm a beginne
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+I gots to be a winner in this mutha****a mix u
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+Get my shit together, scope it out and try to fix u
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+Some confidence to keep a real ****er going stron
The system is my house, the system is my home
The system was designed to keep a brotha on his back
The system crackers caught me that's exactly where I'm at
My lawyer was a snitch, got me framed started buggin
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+My mutha****a phone and the judge was his cousi
It's hard thinkin positive with negative around me
So I had to relate to the grounds that surrounded thee
House and The Mound where I chill
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+With the mother****ers who respected a real ****e
Cuz MJG respect them too
So I had to survive living my life with the street rule "stay cool"
Disregard school and make my money fool, check it
It's hard to understand where I'm comin from if you on the outside talkin shit
Lookin in, then again if you was on the inside lookin out, 9 times outta 10
You would probably be my friend
8Ball & MJG+On Tha Outside Lookin' In+On the Outside Looking In+**** how you figure, the system's gonna help y
The ghetto's where they put ya, the ghetto's where they kept ya
See deep down in my heart I had this urge to go astray
And knock out all my problems in one ordinary day
The system got me thinkin cuz I'm locked down in a tank
They saw a brotha strokin, so they had to make his shit sink
So I can't get mixed up with them devils or no other
With Ani.....mosity I hate when It's a brother, none other
Than a buck, duck, hoodle up, shootin up thangs in the wind
I'm in the Pen, you outside lookin in
