T.I. Addresses Jail and Drug Use in New Song With Pharrell, 'Here Ye, Hear Ye'

T.I. has recorded  songs with Jay-Z and Kanye West, Young Jeezy, and Big K.R.I.T. since being released from jail. But his most intriguing song is his collaboration with Pharrell. Titled “Here Ye, Hear Ye,” T.I. takes listeners on a journey through his personal trials and tribulations. He raps about his recent prison stint and drug use.


“On bended knee, God forgive us we’ve been sinning, in our defense look at the options we’ve been given. Laying in the prison cell starring at the ceiling, back in this b—- again I guess they wasn’t bull s—- ing. Still wonder where it all went wrong, since Phil got killed I ain’t never moved on. Like I’m still in the club where the blows got thrown, where my crown fell down and I got dethroned…Now here I am, with blood on my hand trying hard to explain so that his mom understands. I’m at fault for the loss of the soul of a man, only soldiers know how that’ll take a toll on a man … Scary, so if I pop a pill, smoke a blunt, or take a shot y’all let a n—- live. Still baffled on how my life unraveled.” –amir shaw
