I'm ridin' high on the freeway late at night
|
I got some trouble on my mind 'cause my shit ain't right
|
I'm comin' short on the real money, a nigga broke
|
I need a fifth of Remmie Martin and some weed to smoke
|
It ain't no joke when you're comin' from the town I'm from
|
Most nigs be dead before 21
|
I'm tryin' hard just to maintain, I fry my brain
|
Nigga losin' his mind, slowly goin' insane
|
And niggaz think I got it all, I was born to ball
|
Eyes bloodshot red from that alcohol
|
I watched the rise and the fall of all my homies who ball
|
My dogs brains blew out blood stained the wall
|
Suckas wish I was dead, didn't live to tell
|
The way a hot slug feel, and fried skin smell
|
Niggaz want me dead out here playa hatin'
|
'Cause they bitches wanna molest, they masturbatin'
|
I can't help, that's the way it is, handle yo buisness
|
And make sure you ain't no eye witness
|
Keep your eyes on your money boy, at all times
|
Most people don't know you gotta take it slow in the sunshine
|
|
(CHORUS)(2x)
|
Another day, another way
|
Sometimes you gotta take it in
|
Slow motion, in slow motion
|
|
Gotta take it slow, can't go to fast
|
If I blast for cash, might not see the green grass
|
At last, make it all green like mash
|
Take your cash, then I dash, picture this with the flash
|
Robotic, economic, knowin' nothin' but ebonics
|
Still hooked on chronic, plus I'm black like Onyx
|
Can you see me with a telescope
|
Or do you need the dopeman to tell you that it's dope
|
I hope you know the difference between
|
Life or death and bein' woke from a dream
|
So many schemes it's hard to see between the seems
|
When the system redeems, bustin' infrared beams
|
From here to New Orleans plenty of dope fiends
|
That's why I keep a car clean, and fulla gasoline
|
Know what I mean, young nigga workin' for beans
|
Still chasin' your dreams
|
|
(CHORUS)
