Sadat X - Black October lyrics

[Verse 1] A mind is a terrible thing to waste And the way that I reacted might of caught me the case But at least I get to be out for that New York Summer And the court ain't hit me with a real big number But I'm froze for the winter, it's a f**ed up thing Forgive them father, they know not that I'm the King So from April to August, I'mma beat up the streets So when I come out in June, I have something to eat By then I'll tired of detention food And who knows, maybe I'll be a changed dude My Mother's heartbroken, and my aunts are sad And since November 8th, I been tweeting my Dad Will I be on the island, or bidded out on the boat? It's up to Corrections, I don't get no vote Had to cop to the plea, no grounds for trial For eight months to a year, I won't see my child In the fall, no blowing trees in the hall No OT trips, no shopping in the hall No slides, can't get out the insides I read a psalm, and make love to my palm [HOOK: (sample)] (There comes a time when you want to be older) (There comes a time when you want to be bolder) (I love you more when it's over) (I love you more when it's over) [Verse 2] Keep my commissary full my dudes, get my little snacks That's why I'm doing joints now, to keep my name on wax No fear, they didn't hit the God with years But it's a shift in my plans, if you really my man's If you really my fans, stick with me and ride it out You know what I'm about, f** what the papers said Radiohead, It's no street-cred And please, don't send me no ghetto books I already know about fights and hooks And I ain't really trying to bang Getting heads my thing, making bread's my thing And yeah, I might need some new shower shoes And damm I'mma miss, reading the Daily News And I'mma need a big jug for juice, and maybe put the weights to use, no swine They can lock the physical, but can't lock the mind [HOOK: (sample)] (There comes a time when you want to be older) (There comes a time when you want to be bolder) (I love you more when it's over) (I love you more when it's over) [Verse 3] Mark this October date black, let's see if I fall in the crack For sh** like this, you can never be prepared But in all honesty, I'm not the least bit scared Maybe I'm afraid of the boredom Can't walk with my girl in the fall, down Florida Damn I'mma miss my cla** If I could kick my own self in the a**, I would And I'mma miss all my dudes Miss drinking beer, and eating home-cooked foods Laying with the body till noon I'm already counting the days till next June Make the time, don't let it make me Take my girl somewhere, put her feet in the sea Wow, this is really real, they tried to get a n***a to squeal and snitch Tried to hit me with a lame sales-pitch Keep the God name deep in your heart If you do that, I played my part This is no farewell, my genes can't be confined to a cell [HOOK: (sample)] (There comes a time when you want to be older) (There comes a time when you want to be bolder) (I love you more when it's over) (I love you more when it's over) (There comes a time when you want to be older) (There comes a time when you want to be bolder) (I love you more when it's over) (I love you more when it's over)
