[Intro: ISO Indies]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
ISO
Conchez
Yo
[Chorus: ISO Indies]
Then they put you on trial
I was just a young child
Gave you twenty-five to life, all these years gone by
And you never asked why
All you did was pray to God, all you did was wait your time
Now you 'bout to come home
And I'm 'bout to have a child, it's gon' be worthwhile
It's gon' be worthwhile
Remember nights I cried, now we at the finish line
[Verse 1: ConchezYout]
You was only twenty-one with a son on the run, though
You was livin' in the jungle
Got charged for a murder, and some weed, and a gun, though
You was movin' like Rumbo
Did your time like a champ, never rumble
You was on the wrong path, you was young, though
You ain't never let it break you, stay humble
We see the light at the end of the tunnel
I see the fire and the pain in my Momma eyes
I was just a little boy, I always wondered why
'Cause you can't Hell raise me by your side
I was taught to speak the truth and never tell a lie
But I knew you wasn't capable of homicide
You was just a real nigga, always down to ride
I thank God that he gave you a second time
You got caught up in the feel, but you still alive
For the fam', yeah, I know you'd never jeopardize
All the time that you did it only made you wise
Collect call, thirty seconds, yeah, I love you
Learned a lot of life lessons from my uncles
This a letter to my Pops up top, and it's still fuck cops, I don't eat pork chops, no
ISO, we got the city on lockers goin' down, young jot, whoa
[Chorus: ISO Indies]
Then they put you on trial
I was just a young child
Gave you twenty-five to life, all these years gone by
And you never asked why
All you did was pray to God, all you did was wait your time
Now you 'bout to come home
And I'm 'bout to have a child, it's gon' be worthwhile
It's gon' be worthwhile
Remember nights I cried, now we at the finish line
[Bridge: ISO Indies]
All these trials, tribulations
All these trials, situations
Trials you be facin'
Times we was waitin'
Now we at the finish line
Now we at the finish line
[Verse 2: Dillmatic]
Damn, near fell, got the call on my cell that my Pops got robbed
And he got shot up
I was workin' NATSP, that was it, KP
I was focusin' on makin' me a dollar, his business got lost
His lost almost cost
I was in the parkin' lot thinkin' bout my Grandma
He got sent home back to Trini, had to make a way up
And some youngins tried to take it all from him
I remember days right before I graduate, had to go to Jersey
It was visits in a state pen
On the other side of the glass, yeah, things movin' fast
At the time, nah, I really couldn't face him
I ain't understand 'til my Mom sat me down like a man
And that day, yeah, it changed me forever
I wanted revenge, but I'ma get it when I make it out, then I’ll put him in that Miami weather
Convos on the WhatsApp, got me movin' real tac'
'Cause you never turn your back, even when it got spooky
Know for a fact, you ain't cut me no slack
You would rewind time, yeah, like it was a movie
But it's real life, and we gotta look ahead
Glad you alive, I don't gotta say you dead
Only to show survivors a reason you here
Cheers to the next couple years, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus: ISO Indies]
Then they put you on trial
I was just a young child
Gave you twenty-five to life, all these years gone by
And you never asked why
All you did was pray to God, all you did was wait your time
Now you 'bout to come home
And I'm 'bout to have a child, it's gon' be worthwhile
It's gon' be worthwhile
Remember nights I cried, now we at the finish line
