Criminal

[Intro: Maino] All I ever been was a criminal Maino left the street's it's a miracle [Hook: Maino] All I ever been was a criminal Niggas said Maino left the street's it's a miracle Left the drugs alone, took the thugs alone If you know the words, won't you sing along Ehey, ehey, now Ehey, ehey, now Ehey, ehey, now Ehey, ehey, now [Verse 1: Maino] Rolling through the city in my big wheel Raindrops dancing on my windshield I can see the future in on plane view While my past is peeking though my rear view It's a miracle, how I made it out the slums They said I'll be dead before I'm 21 Look ma, here's a gift from your oldest son Never had a house so I'm bout to buy you one Cause I remember days we needed help Now it's champagne on the shelf Trying to balance fame and the wealth, made a name for myself But tell me what's important, the game or my health So this is for the ones that remember me before rap Where my only source of money came from home crack Young boy, big heart, quit the click clack Misled, little head and a big hat [Hook: Maino] [Verse 2: Maino] Niggas saying I ain't really lyrical It's cool if you don't get it, it ain't meant for you You never faced the judge when he sentences you You couldn't walk a mile in my Louis shoes I used to play the block trying to dodge the D's Ask Bird, ask Cream, they remember me They remember me and Dog and that blue Ford No class pants holding up that 44 Young and wild, headed for that B now Before I knew it, I was in that pen wild No music, way before the videos Nikiya came to see me on the visit yo Can't forget Fatty and Serena Used to write me letters, it helped me keep my head up I was trapped in, but you had my back then Green prison clothes, I ain't even rap then [Hook: Maino] [Verse 3: Maino] Yeah, things different for me, people listen to me Little girls they see me, and snap pictures of me You never know, never say never Used to think that I will be in the street forever Me and mouse yup, me and Seino Early 90's baby what up to Gino Laying back, pretty women bring me breakfast Thinking back I kept the Tech and the Lexus No record deal, just a big dream Hoping the coke will bring me everything Cause all I ever been was a criminal You either end up in jail or in a funeral Shout out to the homies I grew up with Used to shoot, used to rob, sell drugs with Bad choices, good friends turn to memories Still the same, still Maino, I remember me [Hook: Maino]
