[Verse 2]
What a fucked✦ up night
And I'm mad because the cop put on the handcuffs too fuckin'✦ tight
Central Bookin'✦ is where they sent me
So they could take a couple of pictures after✦ they fingerprint me
Then they put me in a cell
And it was all full of niggas✦ that was dirty✦ and stinkin' as hell
Four hours passed✦ already, so now I'm yawnin'✦
And I'm hopin✦ to see the judge in the mornin'✦
Finally✦ they call my name and I get up with speed
To appear before✦ the judge, and make a plea
I saw the judge, he was a brother✦
He said, "How do you plead?" I said, "Not guilty,✦ motherfucker!"✦
Then I got kicked✦ out of court, sent to the Island
Where they got all of these young brothers✦ wildin'✦
And all I seen was teenagers
And brothers✦ just slicin'✦ one another✦ with straight razors
I saw this nigga,✦ he was stone tall
I said, "Yo, I gotta✦ make this motherfuckin' phone call"
He said, "These whores✦ are mine, and you ain't widdit"✦
And put his face all up in mine, so I hit it
C.O.'s came, niggas✦ started✦ to zing
Now I gotta✦ do about✦ three days in the bank
I did my time and now I'm back from my vacation✦
Right on track, they put me back in population✦
I got dressed, and hit the mess hall
Then when I came back, FINALLY✦ I got to make my phone call
My girl is bringin' out the man in me
Cause she's yellin'✦ and shit, while I'm hangin'✦ on the edge of sanity✦

[Verse 3]
I'm sittin✦ Up North, and doin' three to nine
And it feels like my whole life is bein' left behind✦
I'm goin' crazy✦ in this place
And I'm countin' the days, cause I'm about✦ to be a mental case
My little son is gettin'✦ bigger✦
And he picked✦ up the phone one day and thought I was some other✦ nigga✦
Yeah that bitch is tryin' to play me like a sucker✦
Cause on the down and low I heard another✦ nigga✦ fucked✦ her
Now homicide is on my mind
For knowin'✦ that this bitch is at home, screwin' while I'm doin time
And the nigga✦ that's hittin'✦ the skins
Is a bold motherfucker✦ cause he's one of my own friends
But that's alright cause I got somethin' for they asses✦
And when I see him I'mma✦ smash his fuckin'✦ glasses
Livin'✦ in hell but now my blood is gettin'✦ cold
Two months later,✦ I got released on parole✦
So now I'm rollin'✦ colder✦ than a blizzard
I got some iron✦ from my man and went to pay the stupid✦ bitch a visit✦
I'm ringin'✦ the bell like hell
Oh nobody's home huh? So I kicked✦ it til the shit fell
Stepped in the house with my finger✦ on the trigger
Butter✦ ass nigga✦ stuttered, "Wha-wha-what's up, nigga?"✦
My bitch was scared,✦ cause she knew that I was steamin'✦
She ran her ass to the back and started✦ screamin'✦
*One shot fired*✦ to the body✦ *two shots fired*✦ to the head
*One shot fired*✦ put the barrel in his mouth, makin✦ sure he's dead
And the police✦ ain't cannin'✦ me
Inside✦ a cell, cause I just fell off the edge of sanity✦
