Scared Of

There's only one person that really gave me the heebeegeebees
That really shook me. The only one that I was really scared of

Out in the bluffs brought home in cuffs
Learn to be tough or you would get snuffed
Speaking in code 'til I had enough
My pops the only one I was scared of
Out in the bluffs brought home in cuffs
Learn to be tough or you would get snuffed
Speaking in code 'til I had enough
My pops the only one I was scared of

Blond hair blue eyes thought I was Stan
Out on the balcony chilling with Dan
One paid the price the other was innocent
Twenty one floors up acting belligerent
Sharing these stories part of my truth
High in the building a troubling youth
Thought we were cool skipping the school
Until we got caught I was acting a fool
Young and reckless I got a record
Could've been bad police had to check it
Back of the wagon pants would be sagging
Thought I was trapping I was just bragging
Walked down the hall I stopped the acting
In a few minutes I knew what would happen
Knock on the door I couldn't speak
Immigrant dad worked ninety hours a week
Opened the door stone cold reaction
Sharing what happened dissatisfaction
Told to get in he gave me a look
Went to my room I picked up a book
Must've been R.L Stine I was straight shook
Didn't say a word that's all that it took
I was set straight and not by the Jakes
It was my pops that let me off of the hook

Out in the bluffs brought home in cuffs
Learn to be tough or you would get snuffed
Speaking in code 'til I had enough
My pops the only one I was scared of
Out in the bluffs brought home in cuffs
Learn to be tough or you would get snuffed
Speaking in code 'til I had enough
My pops the only one I was scared of

For what was it worth it could've been worse
What if I put someone in a hearse?
We were young stupid shenanigans
Do dumb shit froze like a manikin
I knew my dad he wasn't having it
If he stayed quite you started panicking
Lesson learned not using violence
True OGs they move in silence

Licks licks licks boy' pon your back side
Licks licks licks boy' pon your back side
When you gon' learn you ain't bout that life?
Thankful my dad let it slide
