[00:01.359]Change, shit
[00:04.338]I guess change is good for any of us
[00:06.920]Whatever it take for any of y'all niggas to get up out the hood
[00:09.943]Shit, I'm wit' ya, I ain't mad at cha
[00:12.959]Got nothin' but love for ya, do your thing, boy
[00:15.260]Yeah, all the homies that I ain't talk to in a while
[00:20.763]I'ma send this one out for y'all
[00:26.185]Know what I mean? 'Cause I ain't mad at cha
[00:28.244]Heard y'all tearin' up shit out there
[00:31.413]Kickin' up dust, givin' a mother****
[00:33.456]Yeah, niggas, 'cause I ain't mad at cha
[00:37.827]Now we was once two niggas of the same kind
[00:41.164]Quick to holla at a hoochie with the same line
[00:43.865]You was just a little smaller, but you still rolled
[00:46.763]Got stretched to Y.A. and hit the hood swoll
[00:49.676]'Member when you had a Jheri Curl, didn't quite learn
[00:52.520]On the block, wit'cha Glock, trippin' off sherm
[00:55.497]Collect calls to the crib, sayin' how you've changed
[00:58.232]Oh, you a Muslim now? No more **** game
[01:00.743]Heard you might be comin' home, just got bail
[01:03.705]Wanna go to the mosque, don't wanna chase tail
[01:06.637]It seems I lost my little homie, he's a changed man
[01:09.220]Hit the pen and now no sinnin' is the game plan
[01:12.315]When I talk about money, all you see is the struggle
[01:15.031]When I tell you I'm livin' large, you tell me it's trouble
[01:17.919]Congratulations on the weddin', I hope your wife know
[01:21.512]She got a playa for life, and that's no bullshittin'
[01:24.158]I know we grew apart, you probably don't remember
[01:26.855]I used to fiend for your sister, but never went up in her
[01:29.815]And I can see us after school, we'd bomb
[01:32.186]On the first mother****er with the wrong shit on
[01:35.099]Now the whole shit's changed and we don't even kick it
[01:37.872]Got a big money scheme and you ain't even with it
[01:40.462]Knew in my heart you was the same mother****er that
[01:42.701]Go toe to toe when it's time to roll, you got a brother's back
[01:46.709]And I can't even trip, 'cause I'm just laughin' at cha
[01:49.505]You tryin' hard to maintain, then go ahead
[01:52.194]'Cause I ain't mad at cha
[01:54.068]I ain't mad at cha
[01:58.646]I ain't mad at cha
[02:03.310]I ain't mad at cha
[02:08.988]We used to be like distant cousins, fightin', playin' dozens
[02:11.577]Whole neighborhood buzzin', knowin' that we wasn't
[02:14.402]Used to catch us on the roof or behind the stairs
[02:17.093]I'm gettin' blitzed and I reminisce on all the times we shared
[02:20.153]Besides bumpin' and grindin', wasn't nothin' on our mind
[02:22.773]In time, we'd learned to live a life of crime
[02:25.091]Rewind us back to a time was much too young to know
[02:28.044]I caught a felony, lovin' the way the guns blow
[02:31.032]And even though we separated, you said that you'd wait
[02:34.065]Don't give nobody no coochie while I'll be locked up state
[02:36.809]I kiss my mama goodbye and wipe the tears from her lonely eyes
[02:40.327]Said I'll return but I gotta fight, the fate's arrived
[02:42.875]Don't shed a tear, 'cause Mama, I ain't happy here
[02:45.734]I blew trial, no more smiles for a couple years
[02:48.722]They got me goin' mad, I'm knockin' busters on they backs
[02:51.782]In my cell, thinkin', "Hell, I know one day I'll be back"
[02:54.717]As soon as I touch down
[02:56.434]I told my girl I'd be there, so prepare to get ****ed down
[02:59.628]The homies wanna kick it, but I'm just laughin' at cha
[03:02.932]'Cause you's a down-ass ***** and I ain't mad at cha
[03:06.682]I ain't mad at cha
[03:11.148]I ain't mad at cha
[03:16.825]I ain't mad at cha
[03:19.164]A true down-ass ***** and I ain't mad at cha
[03:19.813]Well, guess who's movin' up? This *****'s ballin' now
[03:20.467]******* be callin' to get it, ******s keep fallin' down
[03:22.042]He went from nothin' to lots, ten carats to rock
[03:24.855]Went from a nobody ***** to the big man on the block
[03:27.568]He's Mr. Local-Celebrity, addicted to movin' ki's
[03:30.664]Most hated by enemies, escape in the luxury
[03:33.571]See, first you was our *****, but you made it so the choice is made
[03:36.601]Now we gotta slay you while you faded, in the younger days
[03:39.094]So full of pain while the weapons blaze
[03:41.407]Gettin' so high off that bomb, hopin' we make it to the better days
[03:44.914]'Cause crime pays, and in time, you'll find a rhyme'll blaze
[03:48.010]You'll feel the fire from the niggas in my younger days
[03:50.828]So many changed on me, so many tried to plot
[03:53.562]That I keep a Glock beside my head, when will it stop?
[03:56.332]'Til God return me to my essence
[03:58.402]'Cause even as an adolescent, I refused to be a convalescent
[04:01.948]So many questions and they ask me if I'm still down
[04:04.808]I moved up out of the ghetto, so I ain't real now?
[04:07.524]They got so much to say, but I'm just laughin' at cha
[04:10.334]You niggas just don't know, but I ain't mad at cha
[04:13.688]I ain't mad at cha
[04:17.621]I ain't mad at cha
[04:18.871]I ain't mad at cha
[04:22.354]Hell nah, I ain't mad at cha
[04:24.262]I ain't mad at cha
[04:28.522]And I ain't mad at cha
[04:30.121]I ain't mad at cha
[04:34.476]I ain't mad at cha
[04:36.438]I ain't mad at cha
[04:39.695]I ain't mad at cha
