|
uh, yea, once again |
|
|
|
|
|
[Chorus:] |
|
|
|
I've been goin' through somethings (ohhh), |
|
I struggled with my inner man (yea,yea), I hustle, I'll do what I |
|
can to get this money,(uh,yea,listen)I know I promised you somethings (somethings), |
|
There's gotta be a better way, |
|
It's not easy to make that change, |
|
The streets keep callin' me |
|
|
|
|
|
[Verse 1:] |
|
|
|
Last night tryin' to make it home (make it home), |
|
I get this call on my phone (on my cell), |
|
Stop yellin' Slow down, I can't understand a word you sayin', |
|
Did ya say my nigga got hit? (in the head), |
|
Did ya say he didn't make it? (is he dead), |
|
Please tell me you know who did this, I'm on my way and somebody's gonna get it |
|
Mash the pettle on the highway-speedin' |
|
Heard my baby in the back ground - pleadin, |
|
Come home and leave it alone - |
|
It's out of the question girl it's on |
|
What about your new born child, |
|
And ya know that he was wild? |
|
I don't wanna hear this shit right now, when they just stretched my nigga out |
|
|
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
|
|
|
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
|
|
By my name sayin' how you gonna get paid, |
|
No education equals minimum wage, |
|
Minimum wage equals minimum pay, |
|
And you know real niggas wanna play, |
|
Won't you come on and move this way, |
|
School don't garuntee a higher pay, |
|
That's the shit that'll get me locked away, |
|
Man they tryin' to give a nigga all day |
|
Now I'm out here everynight comin' in late, |
|
If you slip then I'm comin' for the take, |
|
It's goin' fast and I need to hit the breaks, |
|
The greater the risk the more you make, |
|
All my thoughts are in the clouds, what about just shuttin' down, |
|
But girl I really can't quit right now, |
|
Notice on the door they tryin' to throw us out. |
|
|
|
|
|
[Chorus] |
|
|
|
|
|
[Hook:] |
|
|
|
Although (although), |
|
I was raised right (ooooo), |
|
Still these streets aint nothin' nice they can't change the coast of life, |
|
And you know that i know (i know), |
|
That I must grow (must grow), |
|
See my kids grow, |
|
But still the streets is all I know |
|
|
|
|
|
[Chorus 2x's] |
|
|
