On The Outside Lookin In Lyrics - Eightball & Mjg

[MJG] 

The hammer hit the table leaving me with 7 years 

My history was shit so I could'nt shed a tear 

My future was a wall, surrounded by a cage 

Them laws got me locked down damn at an early age 

The only thing I got is a lust for the streets, the shit I gotta learn 

And the shit I gotta teach 

I'm living for the minute, muthafuck a whole hour 

And I aint pickin shit up when It falls in the shower 

My lady sends me pictures with her pussy in the air, 

but she aint really there 

So I don't really care 

The only thing I got is a muthafuckin dinner 

So fuck what I had, 'cause where I'm at I'm a beginner 

I gots to be a winner in this muthafuckin mix up 

Get my shit together, scope it out and try to fix up 

Some confidence to keep a real nigga going strong, 

the system is my house, the system is my home, 

the system was designed to keep a brotha on his back 

The system crackers caught me that's exactly where I'm at 

My lawyer was a snitch, got me framed started buggin 

My muthafuckin phone and the judge was his cousin 

It's hard thinkin positive with negative around me 

So I had to relate to the grounds that surrounded thee 

House and The Mound where I chill 

with the niggaz who respected a real nigga 

'cause MJG respect them too 

So I had to survive living my life with the street rule "stay cool" 

Disregard school and make my money fool, check it 

It's hard to understand where I'm comin from if you on the outside talkin shit 

Lookin in, then again if you was on the inside lookin out, 9 times outta 10 

You would probably be my friend 

Nigga how you figure, the system's gonna help ya 

The ghetto's where they put ya, the ghetto's where they kept ya 

See deep down in my heart I had this urge to go astray 

And knock out all my problems in one ordinary day 

The system got me thinkin 'cause I'm locked down in a tank 

They saw a brotha strokin, so they had to make his ship sank 

So I can't get mixed up with them devils or no other 

With Ani.....mosity I hate when It's a brother, none other 

Than a buck, duck, hoodle up, shootin up thangs in the wind 

I'm in the Pen, you outside lookin in
