[Verse 1]
|
I never know whether I'm livin fo tomorrow or dyin fo today
|
But either way I'm tryna move a hundred dymes in a day
|
They sat that crime don't pay, but I'm gone stay on the grind in the A
|
Wit the same ole j's
|
I know the lames gone say that I done changed no way
|
I'm in the gutta everyday tryna slang mo ya
|
In the middle of the trap, we hang the dro blaze
|
Niggaz in the trap ain't changed in 4 dayz
|
Waitin on a page dat sayin the blow came
|
Instead of us just finding mo ways to get paid
|
Anyway, in the fire, I done been there homey
|
Niggaz ball, niggaz die and ain't shit fair homey
|
Dem crackers give ya some time and get to sit there homey
|
My niggaz dyin, I'll see ya when I get there homey
|
Ay, Born alone, die alone in life
|
But right or wrong, folk it's on fo life
|
Just be betta than me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Shawty, the streets ain't the place to be
|
I'm telling you cuz it's to late fo me
|
Ay be betta than me
|
Crackas love nuttin betta to see then young niggaz wit a felony sheet
|
So be betta than me
|
I know ya mamma waitin faithfully on her baby to graduate ya see
|
You way betta than me
|
Betta than us, betta than this, take a chance nigga change some shit
|
You could be betta than me
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
Ay, its rules in the game son, learn it young
|
When dez hatas speak yo name man burn dey tongue
|
Neva be ashamed of how ya live or where ya from
|
You stack a mill, niggaz will see how far you come
|
Without a gun, you got somethin'll make 'em bar you son
|
That's a million dollar mind, why, dez niggaz is dumb
|
Yea they gon get outta line, but dez niggaz is scum
|
They outta sight and outta mind 'til you visit the slum, stay down
|
Stay on the grind and yo digits'll come, bottom line
|
You gotta shine no matta what you become
|
Dez streets is 40 percent of yo mind and 5 percent muscle
|
10 struggle, 10 time, and 35 percent hustle
|
And trust if dey don't burry the scared, dey burry the dead
|
When anticipatin pistol play, be very prepared
|
And if you ain't, find somewhere to burry yo head
|
Because them hot ones from the choppas tear ya body to shreds
|
I said
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Shawty, the streets ain't the place to be
|
I'm telling you cuz it's to late fo me
|
Ay be betta than me
|
Crackas love nuttin betta to see then young niggaz wit a felony sheet
|
So be betta than me
|
I know ya mamma waitin faithfully on her baby to graduate ya see
|
You way betta than me
|
Betta than us, betta than this, take a chance nigga change some shit
|
You could be betta than me
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
In a broke down Cadillac, ridin' high
|
Not many trusts in this life either shine or die
|
Ima live one of two ways, either grind or cry
|
And Ima grind it out, even if I'm dyin it out
|
Ain't got no mo than me, so what the fuck you lyin about
|
That man right there, but ain't gon be when dey start findin out
|
That that bullshit you be talkin ain't the real deal
|
That ain't you blow, them ain't yo cars so how you really live
|
See what you need to do is take a chilly-willy pill
|
Go and chill yo ass out, fo dey deal yo ass out
|
A bad hand from a mad man, in a mad clan
|
All dem otha niggaz take a fall you gon take the last stand
|
Gnawed in, sawed in, how everybody ball
|
when everybody else is all in you don't know where to fall in?
|
Need some Flaw Henn, I'm telling you shawty
|
and don't be buyin none of dat bullshit sellin you shawty
|
And all that otha shit they talkin is irrelevant shawty
|
Tell 'em, show you the papa, fo dey show you the cable
|
You see a whole different nigga when you open dem drables
|
follow hatas nuttin holy can saves us
|
Shawty be betta than me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Shawty, the streets ain't the place to be
|
I'm telling you cuz it's to late fo me
|
Ay be betta than me
|
Crackas love nuttin betta to see then young niggaz wit a felony sheet
|
So be betta than me
|
I know ya mamma waitin faithfully on her baby to graduate ya see
|
You way betta than me
|
Betta than us, betta than this, take a chance nigga change some shit
|
You could be betta than me
|
[Repeat 1]
