Ay
Let me kick it to you right quick, man
Not on some gangsta shit man, on some real shit
Anybody done been through the same thing
I'm sure you feel the same way
Big Phil
This for you pimpin'

[Justin Timberlake]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone

Ever had one of dem days you wish woulda stayed home
Run into a group of niggas getting they hate on
You walk by, they get wrong, you reply then shit get blown
Way outta proportion, way past discussion
Just you against them, pick one then rush 'em
Figure you get jumped hell that's next
They don't wanna stop there now they bustin
Now you gushin, ambulance rushin
You to the hospital with a bad concussion
Plus ya hit 4 times, plus it hit ya spine
Paralyzed waist down now ya wheel chair bound
Never mind that now you lucky to be alive
Just think it all started you fussin with 3 guys
Nigga ya pride in the way but ya pride is the way
You could fuck around, get shot, die any day
Niggas die every day, all over bullshit, dope, money
Dice game, ordinary hood shit
Could this be cuz of hip hop music?
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it?
Usually niggas don't know what to do
When their back against the wall, so they just start shootin
For red or for blue or for blow I guess
From Bankhead or from your projects
No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it, now I take
Time to think before I make mistakes just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday, the heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gone away

[Justin Timberlake]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone

I ain't never been scared, I lived through tragedy
Situation coulda been dead lookin back at it
Most of that shit didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it when you out there trappin
In apartments, hangin, smokin and rappin
Niggas start shit, next thing ya know we cappin
Get locked up then didn't even get mad
Now think about damn what a life I had
Most of that shit, look back, just laugh
Some shit still look back get sad
Maybe my homeboy still be around
Had I not hit the nigga in the mouth that time
I won that fight, I lost that war
I can still see my nigga walkin out that door
Who'da thought I'd never see Philant no more?
Got enough dead homies, I don't want no more
Cost a nigga his jaw, cost me more
I'da took that ass-whoopin now for sure
Now think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripes
A nigga put his hands on me alright
Otherwise stand there talk shit all night
Cuz I hit you, you sue me
I shoot you, get locked up, who me?
No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it, now I take
Time to think before I make mistakes just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday, the heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gone away

[Justin Timberlake]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone

I turn my head to the east, I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west, still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
The old me is dead and gone, but that new me will be alright
I turn my head to the east, I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west, still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
The old me is dead and gone, but that new me will be alright

Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travelin' on this road too long (too long)
I'm just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone
