This Time Around

This time around Ill never get bit
Though you really wanna fix me
This time around youre making me sick
Though you really wanna get me
Somebodys out
Somebodys out to get me
They really wanna fix me, hit me
But this time around Im taking no shit
Though you really wanna get me
You really wanna get me

He really thought he really had
Had a hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had
Control of me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really could control me

This time around Ill never get bit
Though you really wanna get me
This time around Im taking no shit
Though you really wanna fix me
Somebodys out
Somebodys out to use me
They really want to use me
And then falsely accuse me
This time around
Theyll take it like spit
cause you really cant control me
You know you cant control me

He really thought he really had
Had a hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had
A hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me

He really thought he really had
Had a hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me
He really thought he really had
A hold on me
He really thought he really had
They thought they really had control of me

(rap: the notorious big)
Listen, Ive got problems of my own
Flashin cameras, taps on my phone
Even in my home I aint safe as I should be
Things always missin
Maybe it could be my friends
They aint friends if they robbin me
Stoppin me from makin a profit, see
Apology shallow like the ocean
I guess Ill resort to gun totin
If I was dead broke and smokin
Id probably be by my lonesome
Im a killer nigga I aint jokin
Endo smoke got me choked and Im hopin
The fool comes slippin
So I could blowem open
This time around
I changed up my flow
Got rid of the rocks
Got pits by the door
Ive raised other peoples to watch my back
Stay away from strangers
So I wont slack
And I know my nigga mike like that
Baby
