My homeboys in Clinton and Rikers Island All the penitentiaries Mumia Mutulu Geronimo Sekon All the political prisoners San Quentin who can save you all the jail houses
I'm with you Yeah one thug one thug
You're listenin' to the sounds of one thug
One thug one thug You're listenin' to the sounds of （How do we get ahead ） I wake up early in the mornin' mindstate so military Suckers fantasizin' pictures of a young brother buried Was it me the **** or this life I lead If daytime is for suckers then tonight we bleed Out for all that knowin' that this world bring drawbacks Look how this **** bump once I deliver these raw raps Meet me at the cemetery dressed in black Tonight we honor the dead those who won't be back So if I die do the same for me shed no tears An Outlaw thug livin' in this game for years Why worry hope to God get me high when I'm buried Knowin' deep inside only a few love me Come rush me to the gates of Heaven let me picture for a while How I lived for my days as a child I wonder now How do we outlast always get cash
Stay strong if we all mash hold ya head
How do we keep the music playing （Yes you got to hold ya head） How do we get ahead （Hold your head）
Too many young black brothers are dying （Yes you got to hold ya head）
Livin' fast too fast
Yo these felonies be like prophecies beggin' me to stop 'Cause these lawyers gettin' money every time they knock us Snatchin' pockets lyrically suckers flea when they notice Switched my name to Makaveli half the rap game closed Exposed foes with my hocus pocus flows they froze Now suckers idolize my chosen blows
And mo' money mean litigatin mo' playa hatin'
Got a cell at the pen for me waitin' is this my fate Miss me with that misdemeanor thinkin' me fall back Never that too much Tequila drinkin' we all that Make them understand me if not I slang my posse Everyone with me is family 'cause everybody's got me Watch me paint a perfect vision this life we livin' Got us all meetin' up in prison Last week I got a letter from my road dog written in blood Saying ＂Please show a playa love＂ hold ya head hold it
How do we keep the music playing
（Yes you got to hold ya head） How do we get ahead （Hold your head） Too many young black brothers are dying （Yes you got to hold ya head） Livin' fast too fast The **** got me tweakin' in my mind I'm thinkin' God bless the child that can hold his own Indeed enemies bleed when I hold my chrome Let these words be the last to my unborn seeds Hope to raise my young nation in this world of greed Currency means nothin' if you still ain't free
Money breeds jealousy take the game from me I hope for better days trouble comes naturally Running from authorities 'til they capture me
And my aim is to spread mo' smiles than tears Utilalize lessons learned from my childhood years
Maybe Mama had it all right rest yo' head Tradin' conversation all night bless the dead
To my homies that I used to have that no longer roll Catch a brother at the crossroads
Plus nobody knows my soul watchin' time pass
Through the glass of my drop top Rolls hold ya head
How do we keep the music playing （Yes you got to hold ya head） How do we get ahead （No matter how hard it get feel me come on） （Hold your head）
Too many young black brothers are dying （Get the **** drink a drink read a book） （Yes you got to hold ya head） Livin' fast too fast
（Watch the stars get some ***** whatever） How do we keep the music playing （Yes you got to hold ya head） How do we get ahead
