I believe this song was on one of Tha Carter III-era mixtapes, which in my opinion, are the absolute best mixtapes to ever grace hip hop. This song is so far ahead of its time. It's definitely Lil Wayne's best track. It details the dark life of drug addiction, with powerful lines like "I'm a prisoner locked up behind behind Xanax bars" show how deep Wayne's addiction really is. It makes me feel bad for him. My favorite line, and it's so fucked up, is "I feel like buying and if my dealer don't have no more, then I feel like dying." The haunting sample, coupled with Weezy's heart wrenching lyrics, makes this song so amazing. I do, however, want to play basketball on marijuana streets. I see no harm in that, honestly.
