[04:13.34]
[04:19.61] It's weak to speak and blame somebody else

[04:24.23] First nothing's worse than a mother's pain
[04:26.62] Of a son slain in Bensonhurst
[04:28.67] Can't wait for the state to decide the fate

[04:45.96] Watcha do gitcha head ready
[04:48.04] Instead of gettin' physically sweaty
[04:50.24] When I get mad
[04:51.04] I put it down on a pad
[04:52.82] Give ya somethin' that cha never had controllin'
[04:55.37] Fear of high rollin'
