[Intro]

Look at what they did to me, they burned me

they turned me, into an animal

they flipped son, they burned me

to the first degree, me son, they hurt me

I looked out for them motherfuckers, they burn me

I was good, now I'm bad, see they done turned me

Into a monster, I can't believe they burned me

I showed you love, they showed me hate

they burn me

Now I'm heartless, ya pain don't concern me

[50 cent verse 1]

I got so many enemies, so many memories

So many flashbacks, we used to be friends

sugar turned to shit, people just change

They keep pushin' a nigga, til the hammer go bang

You violate I will let that motherf-ck rang

Feels like money came, then more money came

and niggas start foamin out the mouth, growin fangs

Now when did I become the saviour of the hood?

Look homie, you don't know me, I wouldn't save you if I could

I sacrifice for suckers and they change me I'm angry

They selfish, all they want is what they want, so they blame me (wow)

like it's all my fault that they ain't caked up

You a grown ass man, damn when you gon' wake up?

Turn 7 to 14, 14 to 28, an O to 62

nigga get up ya weight

learn how to duck the jake, stack ya paper then ya straight

[hook]

I try to help, they mad a nigga eat, man it's hard out on the street

cuz they kinda think i'm weak (they burned me)

they see the way i grind and they like the way i shine

They want the paper like mine (they burned me)

man they be on some shit, when they tryin to hit a lick man a motherfucker flip

(so they burned me)

you think they won't trip, cuz you helped them from the rip, they ain't loyal to shit

(Verse)

She call the cops on me, cuz i don't love her like i used to

Try to fix what was wrong, guess it hurts cuz i'm gone

My son, he love me, but she try to poison his mind

actin' like everything they got, ain't come from my grind

I say a prayer for her, like God, please change her heart

All this hatred at one time, it's tearin' me apart

Man, I ain't lookin for trouble, I'm lookin for blessins

But ever since the money came, me i been stressin

got my ass kicked for being kind, i can't trust nobody

the closer they get to me, the more they take from me

man i'm givin all i got to give, i'm tryin to live

they look at me, they eyes got dollar signs, they want the kid

to give it all up, fall apart, break down

I ain't got much left, what they wanna take now?

my life? I got so much more to offer

I'ma make em watch me be number one til I'm done

[hook]

I try to help, they mad a nigga eat, man it's hard out on the street

cuz they kinda think i'm weak (they burned me)

they see the way i grind and they like the way i shine

They want the paper like mine (they burned me)

man they be on some shit, when they tryin to hit a lick man a motherfucker flip

(so they burned me)

you think they won't trip, cuz you helped them from the rip, they ain't loyal to shit

(50 singing)

They burned me all the way down

Betray me just because, I'm down

I don't know what to do now

Me, my loyalty's, what I'm bout (haha)

(They burned me)

Over and over and over

Like they doin what they supposed to (they burn me)

god damn look at how they do me

somebody new tryna to sue me

(so they burned me)

(so they burned me)
