|
I'm just tryna get my life right |
|
Get it to go my way (go my way) |
|
If ya ain't got pay |
|
I'm just tryna get my life right |
|
Top of the hill with my family |
|
Cop a couple mil can't be mad at me |
|
I'm just tryna get my life right |
|
Don't wanna beef with ya |
|
Get ya money let me eat with ya |
|
I'm just tryna get my life right |
|
Cause I gotta be the boss |
|
Gotta get it no matter what the cost |
|
Getcha life right |
|
[Verse 1: Krizz Kaliko] |
|
I ain't tryna be Bill Gates |
|
I'm tryna be the nigga Bill Gates hates |
|
Make no mistake 'bout it |
|
I'm tryna make it where my son see anything he want on the Internet and PayPal it |
|
I stay valid |
|
There ain't nothin' you can say 'bout it |
|
If ya hustle gimme enough greens to make salad |
|
I gotta get my money and my life right |
|
I push ya bucket as long as my momma and my wife right |
|
Don't really want people to see me in the wrong light |
|
And stop me from feedin' my son it's on nigga, on sight |
|
Pass around that collection plate |
|
The selection got me feelin' nigga rich but I'm Section 8 |
|
Momma taught me how to behave |
|
But aunt showed me how to **** weed in a microwave |
|
So if you know me know I love you from a distance |
|
My absence is all about business |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 2: Skatterman] |
|
Some people callin' my story an inspiration |
|
Relatin' to the time I get if I skip this probation |
|
Patiently waitin' for me to slip so they can can me |
|
Off in a cell when I was just tryna feed my family |
|
But I'm addicted to these streets and blocks |
|
And this concrete is crucial, either ya eat or ya not |
|
Plan on reachin' the top |
|
Gotta be willin' to poke your shirt out |
|
Stick with the truth if you's a griddin' pass the work out |
|
How can I judge a man that life just left me |
|
I'm blessed, knock on some wood |
|
Slip through the ice like Gretzky |
|
Every move I hope the vice don't catch me, I gotta try |
|
I used to pick shoes baby momma for an alibi |
|
Nigga had to switch it up |
|
Rap game pickin' up |
|
It's critical, tryna walk that line of cash residuals |
|
I'm tryna make it to where my prophece is invisible |
|
And if I fail, just call me pitiful |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse 3: Snug Brim] |
|
I'm just tryna get my life right |
|
The kids and the wife right |
|
But still I'll bust a motha****in' head if the price right |
|
Right or wrong |
|
Homie I don't give a **** |
|
As long as my son can get some [? ] for his Tonka truck |
|
I'm bein' in it |
|
Stuck in the game, dodgin' the [? ] cops |
|
Been griddin', [? ] things when will they ****in' stop (****in' stop) |
|
Paranoid, thinkin' who gon' blow the whistle on me |
|
Change my daughter's diaper in the dope house with a pistol on me |
|
I sold coke, sold crack, sold this, sold that |
|
Pray to the Lord, but I won't never get my soul back |
|
I used to get the powder, when I touched it it would turn to bricks |
|
But lately everything my finger's touchin' seems to turn to shit |
|
I go to church on Sunday cause I wanna be a good nigga |
|
But I'm a product of my hood nigga |
|
Plus I'm sick of being Strange Music's black sheep |
|
But I don't wanna go back to them back streets |
|
[Chorus] |
