Verse 1
(A minor) (C major) Yeah,
Mr. (B flat#m) Criminal back (A minor) up in this homie (B flat#m)
Got a little message of advice
to all these youngsters (A minor) today,
you know (B flat#m) what mean? (A minor)
A lot of (C major) my homies getting
locked up doing life,
you know what I'm
They nev (B flat#m) er gonna get
(A minor) out and see their kids
Got (B flat#m) a lot of motherfucking
homies that are dead,
laying six feet deep in the ground
And I'm standing here (A minor) now like,
damn, (C major) I've been through a lot,
you know what I'm saying?
I done changed my life (B flat#m) (A minor)
Doing shit (B flat#m) for the better these days,
you know what I mean?
Think about it (A minor) (C major)
(A minor) I'm like Bon Bon,
(C major) cause I progress with time
And you can catch me getting (B flat#m) faded
in the (A minor) Cali sunshine
Writing (B flat#m) rhymes in my pastime
I used to smoke dimes,
now I'm smoking by (A minor) the ounce
To help re (B flat#m) lease what's on my (A minor) mind
Life is full of stress,
(C major) I know this world is just a test
People say that I'm lucky,
(B flat#m) but I con (A minor) sider it being blessed
Cause I've (B flat#m) been through a lot,
this short life has felt long
Grew up way too fast, (A minor) at age (C major) 11
Hitting (A minor) bars instead of going to school
(C major) I admit, I was a fool,
I always broke my curfew
(B flat#m) Coming (A minor) home around 2, age (B flat#m) 13
I started robbin' and stealin'
and made a reputation
(A minor) Of bein' a (C major) neighborhood villain
(A minor) It wasn't very long
un (C major) til I got caught up by the law
First was probation, that (B flat#m) failed,
then off to (A minor) ju venile hall
I started (B flat#m) messin' up bad,
raised my mom, no dad
Aged 14 on my (A minor) own,
no more (B flat#m) livin' as the (A minor) past
Sometimes I sit (C major) back
and reminisce about the old days
I know my family (B flat#m) nev er thought
I'd (A minor) snap out of my old ways
(B flat#m) But now, I'm proud to say
I can look at my life
(A minor) and everything (B flat#m) will be okay
(A minor) From runnin' the streets
to (C major) gettin' in the beef
From jackin' and slang (B flat#m) in' to robbin' daddy,
no (A minor) peace
Insane, (B flat#m) daily abusing
with pollution in my brain
The time finally (C major) came,
I realized I need (A minor) a change
I had to do something,
(C major) my homies helped me out
Let me stay at their house (B flat#m) ,
they put some (A minor) food in my mouth
(B flat#m) Destructive, indefiant,
plus a brain full of drugs
And all my role models
(A minor) were dope (C major) dealers and (A minor) thugs
On the run for a while,
(C major) the streets corrupted my mind
To be arrested again
(B flat#m) was just a (A minor) matter of time
May (B flat#m) 6, 97 was a knock on the door
Police raided where I (A minor) stayed,
screaming (C major) get on the floor (A minor)
Handcuffed again,
(C major) and then my freedom was lost
I had to pay for my cross,
(B flat#m) this time (A minor) of year was the cost
God (B flat#m) sends the plagues,
and some were far in the hills
Got into fights all the time,
(A minor) and started (C major) building my skill (A minor) s
Therapy was a (C major) must,
thirty weeks and I passed
I took care of that busi (B flat#m) ness
so I could (A minor) get on my fat
Sure enough, (B flat#m) time came,
once again I'm released
Sixteen years (A minor) old,
now I'm (C major) back on the (A minor) streets
Sometimes I sit (C major) back
and reminisce about the old days
I know my family (B flat#m) nev er thought
I'd (A minor) snap out of my old ways
(B flat#m) But now, I'm proud to say,
I can look at my life
(A minor) And everything (B flat#m) will be okay
(A minor) From running the streets to
(C major) getting into beef
From jacking to slangin'
and robbin' (B flat#m) daddy,
no (A minor) peace, insane
(B flat#m) Daily abusing with pollution
in my brain
The time finally came,
I realized I need to (A minor) change
Kickin' back with the hom (C major) ies,
smokin' out to reminisce
And in a couple of week (B flat#m) s,
probation tested (A minor) my piss
Sure (B flat#m) enough, I failed,
no one to blame but myself
Couldn't believe that
I was (A minor) back
in juvenile hall (C major) behind a (A minor) cell
But that's the way that it (C major) is,
fuckin' up, you gotta pay
Shackled up, I saw the (B flat#m) judge,
he threatened (A minor) me, well, why?
But be (B flat#m) fore that,
things got serious with my girl
She got pregnant
and (A minor) now I have a (C major) son in this world
(A minor) Started straightening up (C major) and
I admit it was hard
Having visions of me (B flat#m) dead
and walking (A minor) in a prison
Yo, what kind of (B flat#m) father is that?
Didn't want that for my kids
So now I really started (A minor) caring
about the (B flat#m) things that I did
(A minor) My mom told me, son, (C major) you are almost 18
If you don't work or go to (B flat#m) school
You're gonna (A minor) have to shake the sins
So I (B flat#m) did
Moved in with my lady and my kid
Got married in Vegas
(A minor) and with the (C major) parents we live
(A minor) Started working at 9 to (B flat#m) 5
Got a (C major) hustle to survive
and when I wasn't busy
(B flat#m) I started (A minor) working on my rhymes
Filled (B flat#m) up my rap hook
Took it seriously
Hooked up with high (C major) power
Dropped my first CD,
(A minor) now I got my own (C major) spot
with the studio too
Two kids, a couple (B flat#m) rising,
always (A minor) got something new
And little (B flat#m) Robert's getting big,
almost 5 years old and big Robert's 21,
(A minor) rapping, pro (C major) ducing straight (A minor) gold
And my lady just gave (C major) birth
to my baby Angelina
Now together they make (B flat#m) up
the two an (A minor) gels in me, we the dam
(B flat#m) I changed my life and I
got kinda far
And you could do the very (A minor) same
if you just (C major) put it in your (A minor) heart
A little word of advice
(C major) to all these youngsters
out there living the fast life
You know what (B flat#m) I mean?
(A minor) Think about it
Start (B flat#m) fresh, fuck the past,
you can never look back
Anything worth having
(A minor) is worth working (C major) for, you know (A minor) that
Never let another motherfucker
tell you can't achieve your goals
Never let a motherfucker
keep you down,
you know what I'm saying?
Keep your head up, chest out, homie
Advice, Mr. Criminal, I'm out
