Sticky Fingaz - Baby Brother lyrics

rate me

(featuring Dave Hollister)

[Sticky talking]

Let me call this nigga

Come on man; pick up the damn phone

[Brother]

Hello

[Sticky]

I got your pictures, damn we look just alike

A younger version of me, half my age same height

I played "beat you up", made you tough, thought you to fight

Put you on, showed you things, put up your first bite

Now you on the streets making the same mistakes I did

That got me nowhere, so I'm trapped upstate in this bid

Caged like an animal ain't no way to live

Got a baby on the way, who gone father my kid

Where you going now I can clearly see

You either going in an bag or in jail with me

Remember when we was younger and you promised me

You be the first in our fam with al college degree

I know you see the cars, the girls, the clothes, the jewels

And think it's all about the money, heard you dropped out of school

I ain't trying preach but if I don't, who gonna

Couldn't live with myself if you died on the corner

You're my baby brother

[Chorus: Dave Hollister]

You are my baby brother

And you know I love you nigga

I'm just trying to keep you out there

You don't want to end up in here

[Brother]

I hear what you saying big brother, but listen to me

I ain't trying to be the nigga working Mickey D

When I can hustle on the block and come home with a gee

Yeah you right I want jewels and push a luxury V

But what's wrong with that, I wanna love comfortably

Just like the next man driving round the hood in my Lex Land

I ain't got nobody taking care of me

And as far as a school, well it just ain't for me

[Sticky & Brother]

So what you wanna do huh

What you gone sell drugs all your life

(I might)

See you ain't even right

Maybe when you sober up to see the light

(Hold up, this is my life, I live it anyway that I like)

Yo look I'm just trying to help

You know all you want to do is get blunted

(I need money, my wifey got a seed in her stomach)

If you can't see the cycle then you must be blind

And your child getting a father that was just like mine

You're my baby brother

Chorus

[Sticky & Brother]

So is you like that. I mean what's the deal?

Don't you too worry about trying to keep it real?

(Man whatever, this is how you feel then this how you feel)

Yo what's this I hear, you had a gun concealed

(Yeah, I keep my nine (See this what I?)

(Hold up, let me speak my mind

Look at you, you can't even talk you doing mad time)

Yeah look at me, this is how you wanna be

Locked up, the cops tell you where you can pee

(I got to go man)

Ooh you don't even want to hear me out?

(Yeah, but you talking mad shit I don't even care about)

All I saying is that you got to be more responsible

(Aight man, whatever I'm a talk to you)

[Sticky]

Yo, yo.... Damn

He gone end up just like me

Chorus
