This is the story of a young man who made some bad decisions
Now, in life, we all make bad decisions
This is one to grow on

One in a million or is it two of a kind?
Three blind mice, twice or four after five
Makeshift take six, put him in line
Seven after six, Ten-Eight, no nines
Eleven shots double-barreled, front page
Twelve was his age and the size of his gauge
It s been thirteen days
D. A tryna stretch him out in fourteen ways
Man, this shit is like a maze (Mhm)
Baby boy brought joy and plenty pain
And fifteen years, that s what they gave him
But that ain t how his mama raised him
Now he s sittin in his cell, that shit drivin him crazy
I tried to tell him, but he didn t listen
Shit gets hot up in the Crippin kitchen
So make sure when you slide body
Seventeen rules for you fools to abide by

In the heat of the moment
The homie, he lost his head
Lost his mind
Seventeen rules for you fools to abide by
In the heat of the moment
The homie, he lost his head, lost his mind
Seventeen rules for you fools to abide by

Eighteen years old, no chance of parole
Nineteen homies in the RICO when they all told
It s a hot summer outside, but it get cold
Suit up and boot up, nigga, better heel-toe
Twenty-two years, it appears he gon heal slow
2100 stopped out with a steel toe
Trippin , caught his ass slippin with the elbow
Will he get another visit? Baby said, Hell no
Don t wanna bother moms, don t wanna worry me
Thirty days later, cuh fresh out the infirmary
Stickin niggas left and right on site
What happened to the little homie? Cuh, he got life
When he get out, if he get out
A vicious cycle but that s how life go
If you re breathin , you achievin
Stop followin and start leadin
Before you beggin and pleadin

In the heat of the moment
The homie, he lost his head
Lost his mind
Seventeen rules for you fools to abide by
In the heat of the moment (The heat, yeah, yeah, oh, oh)
The homie, he lost his head, lost his mind
Seventeen rules for you fools to abide by

Mm
Life, life
Life, life
