[Intro]
|
Y'all aint never just dreamt and pictured
|
Just looked at the whole situation
|
Cause once you look at it
|
You know
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
|
[Chorus]
|
If I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
Nobody gives a fuck about us
|
But when I start to rise
|
A hero in they children's eyes
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
|
[Verse One]
|
Some say niggaz is hardheaded cause we love to trick
|
Equipped with game so we bang with this thuggin' shit
|
I see ya try to hide hoping that nobody don't notice
|
You must always remember your still a member of the hopeless
|
See you're black like me
|
So you snap like me
|
When these devils try to plot
|
Trap our young black seeds, look it
|
Cops is as crooked as the niggaz they chasing
|
Looking for role models
|
Are father figures is basis
|
Some say expect illuminati
|
Take my body to sleep
|
Niggaz at the party with they shotties just as rowdy as me
|
Before I fix computer chips I gotta deal with brothers flipping
|
I don't see no devils bleeding only black blood dripping
|
We can change which a mouths say
|
I'm watching niggaz work they lives out without pay
|
Whatever it takes to switch places with the bustas on top
|
I'm busting shots make the world stop
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Now if I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
Cause they don't give a fuck about us
|
But when I start to rise
|
A hero in they children's eyes
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
If I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
Nobody gives a fuck about us
|
But when I start to rise
|
A hero in they children's eyes
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
|
[Verse Two]
|
It's the morning after and all of our laughter is gone
|
Time to reflect on what you did cause they saying you wrong
|
I'm sure you had your reasons, dog I don't doubt you
|
See the simple fact of the matters they don't give a fuck about you
|
All them five mouths you forced to feed
|
Not including yourself
|
All you want is wealth they precede it as greed
|
So as you loaded up that mac you continue to bust
|
The mob was on paper thinking they don't give a fuck about us
|
|
I'm seeing it clearer
|
Painting a picture in the mirror
|
They claim we inferior
|
So why the fuck these devils fear ya
|
I'm watching my nation die
|
Genocide and cause
|
Expect a bloodbath
|
The aftermath is yours
|
I told you last album
|
We need help cause we dying
|
Give us a chance
|
Help us advance cause we trying
|
Ignore my whole plea
|
Watching us in disgust
|
And then they beg when my guns bust
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Now if I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
Nobody gives a fuck about us
|
But when I start to rise
|
A hero in they children's eyes
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
If I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
Nobody gives a fuck about us
|
But when I start to rise
|
A hero in they children's eyes
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
|
[Verse Three]
|
Now all the homies got love for me
|
Down to catch a slug for me
|
Guarantee to bleed deeply
|
Now that's love
|
Shit, nobody else would give a fuck if I'm tow down
|
From the floor down
|
6 feet deep bended cut
|
What the fuck done went wrong
|
How long will I be mourned
|
When I'm gone same song
|
And give a fuck all along
|
And who am I to blame 멷m
|
Just doing die through the rain
|
Since they don't give a fuck I don't
|
Feel what I'm saying
|
|
Now thug niggaz die but multiply in doubles
|
Wrapped in plastic
|
Or closed casket
|
For our troubles
|
Present times we busted like bubbles
|
With the police this nation's beasts sent here to run you
|
Now look at what this crooked world has come to
|
I grew up on the other side of perfect
|
A life of hurting messed a hustle whistle die uncertain
|
So I stay up until I'm working
|
I see no reason so I sleep
|
All these seeds in the season
|
Why you stuck thinking that they give a fuck
|
|
You tell me that my world is in peace
|
Well nigga you're lying
|
Cause half of my niggaz long gone
|
Buried in the dirt just for trying
|
Sometimes I think my block is dying
|
And that it's awful
|
To wake up to another day
|
Shit aint changed that's awful
|
I wake up sweating, dreaming, coughing
|
Seeing me upside down back was head
|
Twisted while I'm laying in the coffin
|
The shit comes around so often
|
So tell me something
|
Before I take it out on the world
|
And get the dumping
|
Nigga I'll be so for bang go through the struggle
|
I'm doing the same thing you did at my age in as hustling
|
On the edge of straight busting
|
What's this you don't give a fuck and you fronting?
|
I'm a drink my Hennessey
|
Like it aint nothing
|
|
[Chorus: 2X]
|
Now if I choose to ride
|
Thuggin' till the day I die
|
They don't give a fuck about us
|
The problem kicking rhymes
|
Getting it to they children's minds
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
They wanna see us die
|
They kick us every time we try
|
Cause they don't give about us
|
To while I'm getting high
|
I'm watching as the world goes by
|
Cause they don't give a fuck about us
|
|
[Over Chorus]
|
If I choose to ride
|
Thug till I die
|
While I'm kicking rhymes
|
Getting it into they children's minds
|
Now they give a fuck about us
|
They wanna see us die
|
Every time we try
|
Cause they don't give a fuck about us
|
Me and my niggaz get high
|
Watching the world go by
|
Cause they don't give a fuck about us
|
Rise, Riiiiise
|
