to take my family life from me...

but she gave me everything...

and I took it all.

In the end, I didn't protect her.

Sometimes...

I feel like I killed her myself.

When I first saw you...

you was a little baby.

I couldn't even look you in the eye.

What you saying?

One night, after midnight...

I was sitting here.

Word came through that you was gone.

You was dead.

For the first time in my f***ing life,

I fell to my knees...

and I prayed to God

that nothing happened.

So I prayed to your mama.

I asked her to forgive me...

and to talk to God for me

to bring you back.

I don't deserve you.

Rocks that I copped

From proceeds from the spot

I got the energy to win

I'm full of adrenaline

Play the curve and get nauseous

Watchin' the spinner spin

I made plans to make it

A prisoner of the state

Now I can invite your ass

out to my estate

Them hollow-tips bent me up

But I'm back in shape

Pour Cristal in the blender

Make a protein shake

He's coming, y'all.

Our own Young Caesar

is coming back to Pelham Hall...

July 4, 8:
00 p.m. Be there.

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle

Nigga, you gettin' in my way

When I'm tryin' to get mine

And I'll buck you

I don't care who you run with

Or where you from

Nigga, f*** you

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle

I don't know sh*t about gymnastics

I somersault bricks

Black Talons start flyin'

When a nigga flip

Yo, nigga, you gotta

turn this sh*t the f*** off.

What you want me to do?

I got this man in the back.

- Stop the crack!

- We don't want no more!

- Stop the crack!

- Give us back our street!

Papi, do you have any control

over your neighborhood?

Don't f***ing worry about nothing,

all right?

- You gonna let him play this concert?

- You worry too much, Mira.

Man, listen to this.

- Stop the crack!

- Give us back our neighborhood!

Stop the crack! Stop the crack!

Does he have to do this?

I think he does.

Antwan. Remember,

you keep him covered, all right?

All right.

So what's happening, man?

Bye, Nana.

Last time I saw your mother, she was

saying goodbye in that front room.

You leave enough protection here?

Yeah, y'all gonna be all right. Yeah.

This one is legally owned.

If it comes down to it,

I got a knife in that drawer.

That's all I know.

That's all any mother knows.

I'll be okay, Nana.

You can't take that from a person,

being a protector.

That's all any man or woman is at

the end of the day anyway...

That's all any man or woman is at

the end of the day anyway...

is a protector.

Protector of a child

who will one day die.

Marcus...

when I look in your eyes,

I don't know what you thinking.

And you've been like that

since you were 12...

since the day your mama died.

- I'll be okay.

- No...

you will not be all right, Marcus.

I love you, Nana.

Yo, it's sold out!

The concert is sold out!

- Hey, come on, man, where you going?

- Chill, partner.

Easy. Easy. Easy.

No guns. No arms. We come in peace.

Everybody's friends here, right?

Everybody just relax.

Can I have a word in private

with you, man?

You really wanna go through with this?

You wanna go out there

and diss me in my own hood?

In front of my own people?

You know I can't let you do that, Marcus.

Here's what I can do.

I'll let you come out there,

take a picture with me.

- Show some respect.

- No.

He said no.

You know I love you.

You're a stubborn motherf***er,

just like me.

Rule number five: Show no love.

Love will get you killed.

You know, I really loved your mom.

Give me a hug, man.

But, you know, before she died...

I f***ed her, and then I killed her.

This is how I killed your mama!

Beat him! F*** him up, man!

Get your ass back, man!

He's just f***ing with you!

He's just f***ing with you!

This guy's a f***ing joke!

How you know that sh*t's true?

Shut the f*** up! I can't hear sh*t!

- Marcus, calm the f*** down!

- I'll kill you, motherf***er!

Start the f***ing show! Start the show!

- Get back, man.

- I loved her, man.

I didn't mean to hurt her, man.

I loved her.

Man...

I love you, man. I love you.

Let's do this.

I can't let you go out there, nigga!

I can't f***ing let you go out there!

You kill me, Marcus. Come on, man.

You do it.

Come on.

I been looking for my father all my life.

I realized I was looking for myself.

I felt like I was walking away

from the old me...

and the new me was being born.

It's Young Caesar!

What's up?

America got a thing

For this gangsta sh*t, they love me

Black Chukkas, black skullies

Leather Pelle Pelle

I take spit over Raymo sh*t

I'm a fan

I take spit over Raymo sh*t

I'm a fan

Got the silver duct tape

On my.38 handle

The women in my life

Bring confusion and sh*t

So like Nino in New Jack

I holler "cancel that b*tch"

Look at me, this is the life I chose

Niggas around me so cold

Man, my heart done froze

I build an empire on the low,

the narcs don't know

I'm a weatherman, I take that coca leaf

And make that snow

Sit back, watch it turn to dope

Watch it go out the door

O after O, you know

Homie, I'm just triple beam dreamin'

Niggas be schemin'

I fiend to live the good life

The fiends are just fiendin'

Conceal my weapon nice and neat

So you can't see

The penitentiary is definitely out

The question for me

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle

Nigga, you get in my way

When I'm tryin' to get mine

And I'll buck you

I don't care who you run with

Or where you from

Nigga, f*** you

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle

Its a hustler's ambition

Close your eyes, listen, see my vision

Mossberg pumpin', shotgun dumpin'

And drama means nothin'

It's part of the game

Catch me in the coupe, switchin' lanes

Or in the jeweler's, switchin' chains

I upgrade from 30 BS to clean VS

Rocks that I copped

From proceeds from the spot

I got the energy to win

I'm full of adrenaline

Play the curve and get nauseous

Watchin' the spinner spin

I made plans to make it

A prisoner of the state

Now I can invite your ass

out to my estate

Them hollow-tips bent me up

But I'm back in shape

Pour Cristal in the blender

And make a protein shake

I'm like the East Coast's

number one playboy, B

Hugh Hefner'll tell you

He ain't got sh*t on me

The Feds watching me

Icy, they can't stop me

Racist pointing at me:

"Look at Niggerace." Hello!

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle

Nigga, you get in my way

When I'm tryin' to get mine

And I'll buck you

I don't care who you run with

Or where you from

Nigga, f*** you

I want the finer things in my life

So I hustle
