Lyrics For My Attorney - Hurrikkanne

Hello, you have a call to no expense to you from
(Aaron Barnett) an inmate at Gaston County Jail
They locked our CEO up, wait I'm the CEO
The gray shirts don't want us to win and we ain't even blown up
I gotta stack my dough up, we gotta start this shit up
Been planning it for years, its time for planted seed to sprout up
Tell all my neighbors shut up, they need to keep their mouths shut
I was bothering nobody, \u0026 I guess they just got fed up
With me piling up my cheddar, yeah I should've done it better
I was a little sloppy, next time I'll better manage my feta

The biggest lie I've told is telling everyone I'm fine
I was so busy minding my business, I didn't see them eyeing mine
And I was just on my grind, thought I could handle it myself
While leveling with myself inside
I decided to level with everyone else
They thought me goody two shoes until they saw me on the news
Now I'm: "Kanne with all them thangs" and it ain't even true
I was just trying to make ends meet, just like you
I ain't afraid of calculated risks, I took me a few
I wish they didn't take my mushies so I could munch me a few
But it's cool, I know a few hippies that grow what it do
Yeah, its true; I hate police, most people, and shitty blunts
I'm in love with sinsemilla, and I can't stand jail fruit punch
Just laying here, thinking about what happened before I got this bunk
Before I got assigned a number, back when I could do what I want
Before eating swoles were heaven, before lights out at 11
I used to work all day, come home, smoke, \u0026 record until around 7
Throw a tall boy or 2 in between, while getting rid of a few things
It was a simple life, but I was living some niggas dreams
Funny thing is, I wasn't happy; even with all of the progress
Now I'm 15 steps behind, and that's a whole lot to digest
But my team got me, and I couldn't see until I was inside looking out
And everything turned inside out, yo what the fuck is that about
It wasn't me doubting their clout, I was just stretched too thin
Looking for the best way for our means to match our ends
And I don't have a lot of friends, I consider my niggas family
And I have no plans to rest until Gastonia houses a Grammy
I'm normally by myself, most people don't understand me
I'm just a florist selling herbs
Why in the hell do they wanna can me

I don't have all of the answers, but Imma treat this as a lesson
Better manage my surroundings \u0026 better my depression
You barely avoided becoming a felon
Is what the voices keep on telling me
It didn't always work, but I kinda miss my old remedy
Sitting is my chair, drowning my despair, swearing nobody cares
Screaming out my lungs like I'm the only one who's here
Filling my lungs with smoke like it's a replacement for air
Pouring more poison for my friends who say
They're the only ones who hear
I gotta stay outta my head
There's nothing in there but dread, no pun intended
My dome is twisted to say the least
But I've always had good intentions
Although my approach to my problems landed me in detention
Now all I can hope for right now is a friendly suspension
Having issues with my bond, I wish I could call James up
007 would have me out with little more than some handcuffs
A quarter million for my release because my skin has melanin
Ain't wanna admit my city was racist, but the message is sinking in
I've disappointed my mom, and let down my grandmothers
I'm supposed to be a graduate
But instead in jail, ain't that some shit
My city sits, in the shadow of the Queen
It isn't quite as bright, but the bitch is just as mean

Hit you with that Riley Freeman steez on Christmas Eve
"You gone pay what you owe", even if yet you don't know
And please believe, And don't waste time
You better not be short a dime
I got a lot to pay, and I'll put the squeeze up on you like a lime
Remember: You don't know me unless you know me
You don't owe me unless you owe me
And if you owe me, you know I need what I'm paid in full
No questions asked, and none answered, no volunteering information
Niggas telling on each other, and themselves
For Newports and PlayStations
It's ridiculous, and to put it mildly: I'm getting real sick of this
I'm puffing a Black with my beer
And my homie taking shots of licorice
We just kicking it, pondering the bullshit of the city
Niggas so bitch made nowadays
Might as well buy a purse, and some titties
Must be the drugs

To accept this call: Press or say 5
To refuse this call: Hang up now
To block this call, and all future calls
