It was too late, to be concerned.../ So the story goes; You live and you learn/ Well..
-Krayzie Bone-Intro-
Ya ya, what I'ma do is get into some real shit right about now. Story of my life.
-Krayzie Bone-
Grew up in the ghettos of Cleveland man/ I done seen so many crazy things, you wouldn't believe me man/ I've been there/ Seventeen, I'm out on my own/ Tryna be grown/ I was just tryna keep from fallin (?) below/ Niggas started from zero/ Doin it the way that we know/ Gankin niggas for C-notes/ Sellin them kinda thick dope/ I did it to make a livin, even though I was sinnin/ That's why today I bow down and ask the lord for forgiveness/ But I was hustlin, strugglin man cause it was hard/ Gotta do somethin, cause nothin ain't gon' help at all/ I want it better, but it ain't/ I want to change my ways, but I can't (I can't)
-Krayzie Bone-Chorus-
Cause it was too late (Much too late)/ To be concerned (To me, for me to be concerned)/ So the story goes; You live and you learn (Well...)
-Krayzie Bone-
Losin sense of direction, I'm headin down to the Justice Center/ I think it was six in the mornin'/ (?) rush me nigga/ When they cuff me nigga, they try to scuff me nigga/ But they couldn't budge a nigga, cause I'm a thugsta nigga, ya hear me?/ But I'm in the cell now, I'm bailed around jail bonds/ Steady pacin, and waitin, my so-called 'Fair Trail'/ A couple of months done raised me up, but a nigga still sittin/ I'm stuck in the system and the judge still trippin, listen/ Lookin at these steel walls, drivin me nuts/ That's why I jump up everytime they shut, I guess I ain't so tough/ Wish it was better, but it ain't/ I want to change now, but I can't
-Chorus-
-Krayzie Bone-Outro-
It's too late for me to be concerned now/ All a nigga can do is live and learn now/ That's the only way to save yourself/ When the drama enter, take care yourself/ Some of my niggas still out there livin wrong/ Some of them niggas don't intend on livin long/ Some of them niggas gon' get killed to learn, then it's too late to be concerned/ That's why ya live and...learn....
-Chorus-
