Devil on your shoulder
Tried to look on over
To the brighter side, I told ya
They won't understand
I respect ya, but I can't condone it
Waitin' on some kinda explanation
Tryna have some kinda conversation, wait
Come on, nigga

Just talkin' to my younger self, you there, nigga?
Yeah, I'm here, fuck you do to your hair, nigga?
Grew it out, nigga rockin' a 'fro now
Damn, you gettin' old now
Not really, just a lil' wiser
Smoke a lil' more now, sittin' a lil' high
What's up with you, though?
I'm just right here gettin' bent
'Bout to fly to New York and have this shootout with 50 Cent
Nah, don't do that
Homie, it's too late
The label turned they back on me and I ain't heard from Dre
Then you gotta do your shit
But already been shot, so make sure you don't get hit
I got you
Nah, nigga, I got you
I know where you headed and I been shot too
Just be careful, lil' nigga, you got a son
I know your future, you gon' have two other ones

Callin' all saints, callin' all sinners
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya
I ain't no saint, my God is the forgiver
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya
'Cause you my nigga, you still my nigga
I just gotta keep it one hundred with ya, baby
You still that nigga
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya

How you feel 'bout what you did?
I'm conflicted 'cause now I got two kids
And you was right, I just had another boy
And spendin' time with him, shit bring a nigga joy
But I'm still gangbangin'
Khakis still saggin', rag still hangin'
Mine too, but life is full of phases
Damn, Blood, sound like you been a lot of places
I have, I been to Africa, London
Damn, that's dope, but it's a long way from Compton, huh?
Not really, in perspective
The world is only so big, just appreciate and respect it
Yeah, my daddy told me that when I was five
I hope this don't break your heart
homie, but your daddy died
And your mama gettin' sick
So go spend some time with her 'cause this shit go by quick
I'ma holla

Callin' all saints, callin' all sinners
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya
I ain't no saint, my God is the forgiver
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya
'Cause you my nigga, you still my nigga
I just gotta keep it one hundred with ya, baby
You still that nigga
I'm just tryna have a conversation with ya

Devil on your shoulder
Tried to look on over
To the brighter side, I told ya
They won't understand
I respect ya, but I can't condone it
Waitin' on some kinda explanation
Tryna have some kinda conversation, wait
Come on, nigga
