This is for all the prison officers that took my phone
When I was just tryna call my family, pussies
(Zino Records)
Yeah
(Pull up, show and prove like my p-)
I put my life on the line
No tears, I got pain in my eyes
They can take away my time
But they won't break my spirit inside
I'm an innocent man (misunderstood)
I'm an innocent man (just from the hood)
Uh
Dear world, I'll be home soon
Get some dinner from mum
From there it's straight to the showroom
Damn, I miss Taylor and Lele
Thanks for them pictures, I know they can't wait 'til they see me
I'm cool though, every day, I speak to my mum and my girl
Check in with CJ, my brother as well
Uh, blow some bud to take the stress away
Feels like I was just in the club yesterday
And now I'm on the wing, mopping floors
I was supposed to bring the whole block on tour
I can't be a mogul from behind these walls
All my peers are getting rich while my life's on pause
My chick said I'm selfish, all she did for me
But Henny said he saw her on a nigga's story
It's cool, I won't cry, soon home
Man, I got a lot of living to do before I die, it's Nines
I put my life on the line
No tears, I got pain in my eyes
They can take away my time
But they won't break my spirit inside
I'm an innocent man (misunderstood)
I'm an innocent man (just from the hood)
Where I'm from, niggas will sell your mum crack
Love chat, they'll smile up in your face but stab you in your back
Uh, looks like a different place when it's sunny
You're invisible to hoes if you ain't chasing that money
All my young bucks rolling round with ballies
Only been to funerals cah no one gets married on my block
They'll burgle your house, rob your kid's toy car
They'll take everything, even the coin jar
Nothin' but violence
We weren't playing hide and seek cah we was running from sirens
School days, I got high at playtime
Mandem's always in jail, we're never out at the same time
Light a candle cah we ran out of electric
Third time this week, the neighbours are having domestics
Zino died, I had to be a G
I ain't land on Plymouth Rock that shit landed on me, it's Nines
I put my life on the line
No tears, I got pain in my eyes
They can take away my time
But they won't break my spirit inside
I'm an innocent man (misunderstood)
I'm an innocent man (just from the hood)
