And yes y'all, yes y'all
 
 This is, a different type of dedication
 
 To my man marcus from kansas city
 
 But i'm just tellin ya straight on up
 
 Don't be messin with no drugs
 
 Whether you're young, whether you're old
 
 Whether you're bad, whether you're bold
 
 Don't mess with it cause it's not for the soul
 
 And we gonna do it a little somethin
 
 With three subjects like this..

 Subject one is about a brother by the name of john
 
 Who was sellin crack, just like it was avon
 
 And you know y'know the reason i say "was"
 
 Because that's no longer what my man john does
 
 There was a time when he was wearin much gold
 
 Drivin a benz, jaguar and a rolls
 
 The lifestyle he lived was far from penny ante
 
 Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho, word to granny's panties
 
 Cause he would make dough-roll, and swing it like a yo-yo
 
 Bein broke, was just a no-no
 
 But then the day came when john got caught
 
 And he was dropped like pantyhose without support
 
 You shoulda thought about, what you did in the past
 
 To realize, this fast livin wouldn't last
 
 But, the same guy that was a big hoodlum
 
 Is now in jail, waitin for someone to duke him
  
 
 [chorus - kids singing 4x]
 
 Things get a little easier
 
 Once you learn to understand it

 Subject two, and this one is a doozy
 
 A messed up story about a girl named suzy
 
 Now when you're on wic, the problems may seem enough
 
 But you know she had to get scotty to beam her up
 
 On a crack mission, no type of ambition
 
 Make blunts disappear better than a magician
 
 Her eyes got dim, her body got slim
 
 She said there's nothin in the world like a good ol' stem
 
 On and like on and, and it was strong
 
 Grabbed her pipe and sung a son
