Ok oneway, that's one way to think about it, but I'm not lost without it
Cuz it's only the most controversial shit that gets people to talk about it
Remember Em' wanted to kill Kim? Put her in the trunk with her throat still slit
And after the song came out we all loved him cuz he was still Slim?
That reminds me of this, cuz I was never blinded by his lines from his scripts
The rhymes that he spit never made me put a nine or knives on my chick
It never made me call her a bitch, or kill her along with all of my kids
And if anyone did I don't blame him; I blame society cuz all of it's shit. Ya dig?
So you can load a gun with a clip, but what makes the man pull the trigger?
There's gotta be SOME focus in him? Thats more politics for you folks to figure
Pay attention; we aint a slave to records & not all records hold in aggression
& even if they do it's not important since TI's on a road to redemption, get it?
See that's why we can't take rappers serious cuz rappers are all delirious
When they switch moods up from rude to cute stuff like they're on periods
But there's no need to fear the spits when hearing 'em from a lyricist
I don't blame rappers I blame parents who don't know how to steer their kids
And I think this is nonsense when warnings say "Explicit Content" on the cover
No one listens to what's on it and if a kid wants it he just gotta bother mother
He knows she's had a long day and an argument is something she's not feeling
So if he bugs her enough she'll get stumped & buy it so he can stop screaming
Then he'll pop E & wash it down with Becardi and play the tracks on full blast
While strappin a lasso around his damn throat and it's all happenin so fast
Then parents get so mad and sue 'em while blaming music, rapping, and thugs
But not themselves for lacking the love when Lil' Jack was askin for hugs
Rappin his passion but his parents would always be like "Jack, that's enough!"
So he relaxed on drugs cuz dad didn't like rap & would smack him for acting up
See I made that story up and it was gory but it could have been true
Without proper guidance you'd be lost and blinded & this could have been you
Search Raymond Nap or James Vance, what they did listening to Stained Class
That album from Judas Priest made 'em shoot themselves in the face man
Their brains splat from the same 8 gauge blast of a shotgun
& everyone blamed the famed band but didn't ask how a couple teens got one
It's not dumb if ya blame a man behind the lines; just ignorant. Consider this..
I don't gotta think before I say: You gotta think before you listen in

Learn the whole lesson, quit protestin'.
