I went from living in a house on town's end
|
To got this, a first class lounging
|
It is so outstanding when I'm viewing my surroundings
|
25 and counting, living life for all the colored people
|
Drinking from the fountain back when shit was segregated
|
Finna fuck with hating, hoping God ain't mad
|
'Cause a nigga tired of waiting
|
And fuck being polite 'cause two things that really mixes in this life
|
Is hella business and no shot of being nice
|
So I'm sitting in this photo, alone up the fofo
|
'Cause I'm 'bout to come and shoot nine, talking about no photo
|
Let me shipping up and down like a kid swinging a yo-yo
|
That fucking weak niggas, ask, ask about coco
|
Bull's-eye on my bat like the fucking Target logo
|
'Bout to get it popping like I'm jumping on the poco
|
Wet on my chest like the logo on the '.
|
Lord, I know you ain't gonna like it, but I gotta get this dough
|
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
|
Said thy shall not steal but you know I'm 'bout to take it
|
Said thy shall not kill, but I gotta terminate him
|
Said don't commit adultery but I got the itching
|
So like that nigga, I'm about to fuck his
|
Alright, everything you say, man, I do it contrary
|
Crooked like a politician, working John Carry
|
Lessy Black, mad life, Jessie Jackson
|
The more nigga gain, the less satisfaction I have
|
But rap don't work, guess I'm going back to robbing
|
Stick a nigga full of shit, is not a problem
|
I ain't tryina be mad at life no more, so mind need adjusting
|
'Cause we risking it all, that shit is risking nothing
|
But their lifestyle just lead to making short bucks
|
Path to a million, I done took a couple shortcuts
|
And deep down I know it, it's a no, no
|
I know you ain't gonna like it, but I gotta get this dough
|
I'm tryina fight, you know what I'm saying
|
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
|
Sorry, sorry, sorry
|
Sorry, sorry, sorry
|
|
Look, I don't wanna kill these niggas
|
Only smack these bitches
|
Forgive me in advance
|
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
If I showed you once, I can show you twice
|
Everything's gonna be alright, I'm sorry
|
|
I know this is my only life
|
And there's gonna be things that I want to write
|
