Tired of watching All the playas from the same seat So it's a life of crime Some might sing or rhyme To escape the ghetto before the flatline
Choices to make What am I gonna do Got to use my talents They gonna pull me through Now with success I become a target They wanna set me up I guess more money equals more problems They wanna get me Wanna hit me strip me of my riches They wanna cut me up in pieces Leave me deep in ditches And I can't take it but I'm gonna make it Yeah oh I'm gonna make it yeah ohhhhhh Fight to stay alive I was raised out on these mean streets You know where poverty and hell meet Brothers get jail and life's for sale cheap Since momma held me In her arms to tell me That it's a cold world I done held heat And held myself down Lotta bodies and shells found And *****s into taking everything That ain't nailed down We fell down ain't hard to tell now I ain't trying to see the cell now Or see momma Put her house up for bail now So I'mma give all I got To try and get that gwop ***** I'm hot with this hustle Go 'head and get the cops I use my talent to get more figures Unlike these little corner store *****s Go change your drawers *****s Now with success and I've become a target They wanna set me up take me hostage Or take me down some notches They wanna hit me wanna stick me Get me for my riches They wanna diss me want a clip me Leave me stiff in ditches And I can't take it no no
