Separate me from these streets, lord
|
They tryina wear me down
|
I do this for my people
|
We try to make it out
|
|
My nigga went to prison, gave him 7 years
|
He said he was going through hell of in these streets for real
|
Shit, that boy was damned, not homeless
|
Not just cause he was dead broke
|
But cause everybody want him
|
His head off his shoulders
|
His mama house got shot so many times
|
That she ran and moved to Georgia
|
When them killers can't find you
|
That's what they resort to
|
And when they on they manhood, your love warns you..
|
So think before you move nigga
|
I rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6
|
So I'ma keep that tool with me
|
And he say he don't never think about death
|
Sliding one deep, cause he was born by himself
|
Will there ever be peace, hell I feel like pac
|
Often wanna know his last thoughts the night he got shot
|
I'm doing this one for my g's tryina find a way out
|
My nigga keep on grinding and watch how I play out, straight up!

A wise man one told me, that them niggas ain't your niggas
|
Ain't no put your trust in the bitches boy, but
|
We all make mistakes, and we all take losses
|
That's the part of the game, and I know
|
That change gonn come, homie
|
We can't stop, ain't over till it's over
|
I've been hustling for a long time
|
I've been hustling for a long time
|
Separate me from these streets, lord
|
I do this for my people
|
|
Bitch I've been down ever since I could remember
|
Cold winter, pea and lasacce just for dinner
|
Whole livin, mama dating different niggas, no father figure
|
Tryina figure how to make a dollar from a lousy nickel
|
Sometimes I sip a little liquor just to ease the pain
|
Keep sippin till I float away
|
They saying no place for a nigga, no place for a nigga
|
I feel my aunt looking down on me
|
Uncle he don't tell me keep it real and hold it down
|
Only talk to my mama every blue moon
|
Watch my grand daddy out the blue gone too soon
|
This cold world got a hold on a nigga
|
Got my dog doing time, cause they told on my nigga, argh
|
Have mercy on the soul of a nigga
|
As ice cold, lord take the soul on a nigga
|
