Lyrics
0:03Ayo yeah n***as
0:07I'm talkin to all y'all hard rock n***as

0:19Smoke the looseys
0:21Thinkin' up s**t to do
0:22Doin' stick ups and s**t
0:23Bustin' at n***as murderin' n***as
0:26Gettin' bulls**t a*s money
0:28What if that was your breed was you murderin' clown
0:31It's wack
0:33Shout out to grandpa you know what I'm sayin'
0:37Shout out to grandpa kelly
0:40My man Ralou's brother little Deven
0:42Ya know I'm sayin' Freaky Taliq's moms rest in peace
0:47Know I'm sayin'
0:47Everybody wanna live the ill life know I'm sayin'
0:51But yo we tryin' ta live it like love peace and happiness
0:54You know I'm sayin' word up
0:59I'm growing up in the ghetto
1:01And there was nobody happy
1:03And my head is mad nappy and
1:05I'm thinkin' up a way that I can get some dough
1:07Man I'm tryin' ta blow
1:08But yet this record s**t is so slow
1:10I got the whole family on my back
1:12All I do is eat and sleep
1:14Run the street with that steel pack
1:16You know the lost boyz got
1:18With timbs and jeans
1:18Field jackets and hats coverin' the eyes
1:21But listen that's how it is
1:23If you don't dig how I live
1:27'Cuz everyday on the street
1:28The black man is gettin' beat
1:30Police line us up on the concrete
1:32Now people look at me
1:33And always see wrong
1:35A new problem everyday
1:36I'm tryin' ta be strong
1:37Now how strong can a n***a be
1:40When the blacks is locked down
1:41And the white man's got the key
1:43It's gettin' harder day after day
1:45Somebody got ta pay
1:46And in my closet lays an AK
1:49Is found dead
1:50Plus when he killed the girl
1:52He put the gun to his own head
1:54Ya never hear it on the 6:00 news
1:56When my n***as get killed in the street over tennis shoes
1:59It's hard enough for us blacks to earn cash man
2:02The homeless keep warm by settin' fire to a trash can
2:05Now everyday I need ends
2:07My n***a w**d
2:08St Ides is my best friend
2:10Pa's is broke
2:11No calls comin' in on my phone
2:13And money I'm down to my last stone
2:16My mom dukes is always bangin' on my door
2:18My music's too loud
2:19I got clothes on the floor
2:21Pick em up
2:21She doesn't understand
2:22I'm cruisin' in the fast lane
2:24I'm fresh outta nerves
2:25Ma you're workin' on my last vein
2:27Now how can I explain
2:29That I don't wanna take her out
2:30But that's stuck in my brain
2:32We're havin' fight after fight
2:34Because I leave when it's bright
2:36And comes home the next night
2:37But that's the life that I live understands me
2:40It's bad enough that Po Nine tried ta can me
2:43Ayo my lifestyle is rough
2:45I got three sisters four brothers
2:46Man ain't this enough
2:48But yet I gots no hero
