[C-Murder:]
|
Say Magnolia, Gateway bro
|
It seems like they don't want a young nigga to get rich
|
Like we ain't supposed to leave the ghetto
|
I know we tied to the ghetto, but uhh life's a bitch
|
You know, we was dealt some bad cards
|
But you know, we gotta deal with it
|
Lifes hard, so lets show em' what we made of
|
|
My gateway to hell seems like its constantly open
|
The reaper is callin', so I'm constantly smoking
|
C-Murder ain't gonna die in vain
|
My ghetto ties got me living my life in pain
|
See the world knows, we gonna be thugs forever
|
You can take me out the ghetto, but you can't make it better
|
See the status of your money done changed
|
But the status of your danger remains the same
|
I need to clear my head of these evil thoughts
|
And teach Magnolia and Gateway the shit I was taught
|
Take a ride with me nigga to eternity
|
And watch me live to see another century
|
Lifes a bitch, who do you trust
|
I put my fate in my Glock, cause I know its gonna bust
|
I used to think the hood was cool
|
But my ghetto ties keep me checking in my rearview
|

|
Who do you trust, my ghetto ties got me tripping, and lifes a bitch
|
They can't stand to see a young nigga get rich
|
I was dealt some bad cards
|
Became a thug with no love cause life's hard (Who do you trust)
|
|
[Soulja Slim:]
|
Lord you showed me, even dealt me these cards, I gots to play em'
|
My life is like a game, I'm up from a.m. to a.m
|
Why don't I AK him if he don't have none of my paper
|
Man if I let him live then he might take me for a faker
|
He might try to do a jack, and that might cost me my life
|
If you ever jack this real nigga, you'd besta kill me or pay the price
|
I ain't nothing nice, behind the street machine tell me what you see
|
A tall nigga bout 6'4, last left the murder scene
|
Disguising in army green
|
With infer beams on something, kinda gun nigga
|
Fool one nigga didn't run
|
My niggas went on and tore up his motherfucking ass with the bit fast
|
Like witness that, murder in the first degree
|
My ghetto ties fucking round' with me, don't do that
|

[Da Hound:]
|
How many times, a nigga seen a family nut up
|
And the momma was cut up, yeah I see now but later on I'm a be senile
|
But see how us niggas get caught up, quick to go in the water
|
Niggas steady vanishing away like saw dust
|
I'm feeling that ease, I'm full of them weeds and them fleas
|
Two 23's, nike's and reeboks let the window down and feel the breeze
|
My cousin D, my nigga joned in the backseat thuggin' off the rome
|
And to the Z, thinking about the lives we gonna free
|
I tell him nigga please (nigga please)
|
Soon as we drove up, fucking door was bout' to close up
|
I knocked on the door, nigga hold up, you didn't see us roll up
|
I forced my way in, I put seven up to his thoughts
|
No time for thinking is what I'm thinking
|
Killed the bitch, wouldn't finish shaking
|
I went to the kitchen, I'm flipping pans, pots, and spoons out
|
Heard four knocks, sounded like four shots, coming from the other room
|
It's about that time now, for us hounds to get gone out
|
Got the dilli, quarter milli, went to the next room
|
Jhon Jones was in the zone
|
I saw my cousin Navier, eyes bucking out his head
|
Nigga bleeding from the mouth, he shaking, he's on his way out
|
By this time, I took two hits from behind
|
My nigga John looked in my eyes and said nigga you ready to die
|
Damn, nigga why
