Only if I just would have stayed in school and got more knowledge
But for some reason I never saw me going to college
Instead, I wanted to be on the streets making money the easy way
Now I’m in jail with no money, just time to pay

I’ve been on the streets too long
But now I’m gone
It will be hard to lose that street mentality
But when I came to jail I was slapped in the face with reality

As I sit and think I ask myself, “Why do I hustle?”
I just want to make it out the struggle, but I only find trouble
As I look in the mirror, I don’t recognize the reflection
Everywhere I go, I make sure to carry my protection

But that’s back to a street mentality
It’s time to lose it before I become a fatality
