Lyrics Still In Here - Natalac

A lot of people going down
That ain't gon be seen no more
It might be all fun & games
Everybody talking amongst each other
Aye bro whats happenin' this & that ya know
You get off the chain & them folks get in your life bruh
& That's it for your life

I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?
I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?

Man fuck that judge, I'm so young & strong
Eh look nigga, at the size of my arms
I've been flexing and lifting since the early morn
I say to the old folks, yo check yo phone
Hang that shit up cuz & get the hell on
I laugh ... move punk, now hang up the phone
Phone check, I'll snap yo old ass neck
Disrespect my elders, show a young G respect
Lunchtime, just like in school
Give up to the bully, yo I'm so cool
I dare you not to ... mmhmm
I'll shank you with my sharpened tool ... nigga

I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?
I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?

Ten years later, I'm almost in my thirties
Done grew up some, don't wanna be dirty
Another six years, I'm deep in the thirties
New folks on my blocks who ain't even heard of me
Yesterday a fool asked me for my sweets off my plate
It didn't mean nothing to me
My peeps done moved on with their life
My baby mama is some new nigga's wife
Thought she would love a nigga for life
& Now she said please don't call & don't write
& Just let her live her life
I'm alone in this cell, is this right?
My mama's sick, my daddy's dead
While I'm still serving time for some old ass shit
My son's nineteen, ain't seen him since he was three
When my girl stopped visiting me ... damn

I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?
I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?

I look in the mirror, now I see someone new
Grey hair with white beard, stubble too
I shave off the grey, but it keeps growing back
Compare myself with my entry picture snap
I done gained weight in my life is late
Young inmates are phone checking & taking my plate
My prison term done went from play heaven to play hell
Not safe in population, rather be in solitaire
God is this it? Cause this ain't fair
I wish they'd gon' ahead and gave me the electric chair
& Just when I thought there was nothing worse for me
I get a word from an old ass trustee
There's a new inmate, one who looks like me
It's my son, I failed him too, he'll be joining me
Damn ... this ain't a game ... so stop playing

I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?
I've got so many years & I'm still in here
& I've shed so many tears, can anyone hear?

See ... you think when you doing that dirt cuz ...
You think you doing it for yourself, for your children & stuff man ...
But uh ... money ain't everything ...
Sometimes its best for you to be around ...
Instead of the dough bruh ...
You think you in that cell by yourself? ...
You couldn't be more wrong ... couldn't be more wrong ...
When you do that dirt ...
Your mama, your daddy, your children
Everybody doing that time ... right along with ya ...
You think they don't miss you? ...
So think about that before you uh ...
Think you need that dope ...
That money ... is just paper ...
Printed by the same government who gave you that dope ...
