Fightin', givin' different addresses, they made me change up schools Walkin' through the halls next to my opps, that was a dangerous move Nice in ball, all the girls liked me, guess you could say I'm cool Had love for a few of my teachers, but I just hated school (I hated it) Either it was that or I just hated rules I even was cool with the lunch ladies that would make our food Brand new JanSport, the cops stopped me on my way to school Like, "Go to class or come with us," funny how life'll make you choose On my way to school SongtexteI seen everything on my way to school I seen niggas die on my way to school (Die) Just tryna stay alive on my way to school On my way to school You got a whip to drive, they gon' say you cool Both eyes red, I got high on my way to school Hope I don't end up dead on my way to school Tried to cut through the projects, got robbed on my way to school His mom needed help, he got a job, like, why stay in school? His best friend just dropped out, he had some H to move You got your pops, he ain't seen his father, he can't relate to you His cousin pumpin' coke in the lobby and he been watchin' him His Mama wasn't affordin' them Jordan's, he like, "I'm coppin' 'em" His crew said, "Fuck school," he rather go hit the block with them He tryna get a dollar, his mom made it, ain't no stoppin' him He fell out with his man, he noticed he been with the opps and them He ain't been to class in three weeks, this nigga wildin' Heard about the island, that shit sound more excitin' than school Couldn't give a fuck about a test, he tryna Prada his shoes (Red stripes) On my way to school Seen 'em about to raid my buildin' on my way to school Pack on me, tried to make a killin' on my way to school My life might've been different if I'd have stayed in school On my way to school Nike's and Adidas on my way to school You ever seen a homicide on your way to school?
