I'm just another nigga
|
In the eyes of some I'm a superhero
|
In the eyes of others
|
I'm just another nigga
|
And no matter what they say
|
This shit is still about color
|
I'm just another nigga
|
No matter how hard you try to beat around it
|
It still gonna come back to color
|
|
Try to make it out the situation I was placed in
|
Something they call the hood I was paged in
|
Daddy ain't have a business prepare us onto
|
But he gave me some street smarts to have some money
|
And I can show you how to drop a lil' cut on the grow
|
I could show you how to drop that 14 in the water
|
I'm talking I95 with the Y, arm trafficking in this shit gonna get me life
|
Sometimes I gotta assist to my rise for the sake of my son
|
And I know I can't hide without him taking my loads
|
But I'mma show him every gun and tell him 'these take lives'
|
And just 'cause they say they love you that don't mean they wife
|
You're just like me, you're blessed 'cause you got a good daddy
|
And still in the streets, God forbid something happen
|
If them crackers come and get me or them killers catch me slipping
|
They won't even give a fuck 'cause I'm just another nigga
|
I'm just another nigga
|
Least that what they see me as
|
I'm just another nigga out here whose last name ain't worth shit
|
I met a pretty girl out the hood and made legit
|
Started all flamboyant saying fuck it, I'mma spit
|
But somewhere in between I started selling that shit
|
Number one, my homies showed me how to cook crack
|
He was talking to himself, saying nigga, bring it back
|
Ever since that night I vowed to never go broke
|
The African - American way of life, I sell coke
|
But everything changed, nothing that easy most of these niggas jacking other people
|
Matter fact, a lot of niggas who was strapping, they eating
|
So niggas trying rapping and I ain't working form them either
|
We found a way to maintain, they can't hold us down forever
|
It got harder to be, tryina hold us down together
|
But we don't move like that, instead we move like crack
|
We gotta get up and grind and go and choose our path
|
And stay at it 'cause I've seen plenty move right back
|
I could be the key to some of these niggas getting richer
|
But they don't see it like that 'cause I'm just another nigga
|
Damn, I'm just another nigga
|
Man, shit, I'm just another nigga
|
