This ain't livin; |
|
1st verse - |
|
Nigga; |
|
I hear even the smaller 'g's be dippin' chevy impalas; |
|
While flossin' they gold d's; |
|
O.g's is who they follow; |
|
We swallow tomorrow's seeds; |
|
What we leave is hollow; |
|
We feed violence and greed; |
|
Let 'em lead tomorrow; |
|
In time they grippin' nines; |
|
Sippin' wine they wild; |
|
Still i be starin'; |
|
Watch the parents sacrifice they child; |
|
The love's gone; |
|
A thug's home; |
|
With no love feelin' so strong; |
|
Make young boys in the club dealers; |
|
Now one's for adolescents; |
|
Now dose for doughs; |
|
Keep your friends by your side; |
|
Even close your foes; |
|
Now three for johnny law; |
|
Tryin' to take my chips; |
|
I never pulled the trigger; |
|
Didn't touch that bitch; |
|
Throw your hands in the air; |
|
It's a robbery; |
|
_________ think of pac; |
|
Would you ride with me?; |
|
Let's go see what our enemies talkin' 'bout; |
|
When 'g's enter the house nobody's walkin' out; |
|
This ain't livin; |
|
It's similar to prison; |
|
We're trapped; |
|
My homies jealous plus they tell us that the phones is tapped; |
|
I watch my back twenty-four seven; |
|
And never let a busta send a 'g' to ghetto heaven; |
|
Y-ou know; |
|
This is how it goes; |
|
When we floss with flows; |
|
Before i toss your hoes; |
|
It would cost you mo'; |
|
I do shows; |
|
Make a lotta dough; |
|
Murder my foes; |
|
But i'd give it all up - if it would help you grow; |
|
This ain't livin; |
|

2nd verse - |
|
Peep; |
|
Gunfire is produced at alarmin' rates; |
|
Today's youth quick to shoot; |
|
Get in the car and break; |
|
It takes a nation of millions; |
|
If we intend to stop the killin'; |
|
Just search your feelin's; |
|
Participation should be appealin'; |
|
They our seeds; |
|
And when they bleed we bleed; |
|
That's what becomes of lonely children; |
|
They turn to 'g's; |
|
Heavenly father can you rescue?; |
|
My young nation - rest; |
|
The lord will protect you; |
|
Respect due; |
|
Not a threat; |
|
As i step in blue; |
|
And check those that opposed when i froze them fools; |
|
And who are you - to watch me fall father; |
|
I disappeared and reappeared as the _____________; |
|
(my guess is 'as the don killuminati') |
|
Follow me now; |
|
Skippin' class and livin' fast; |
|
Will get your ass; |
|
Stuck in the pen; |
|
Doin' life plus ten; |
|
Young brother pump your brakes for me; |
|
Before you choke; |
|
Won't you soak up some game from your big homie; |
|
This ain't livin'; |
|
We givin' you jewels; |
|
Use 'em as tools; |
|
Explode on the industry; |
|
And fade them fools; |
|
You know the rules; |
|
Gotta be a ridah; |
|
You can run the redlights but read the street signs; |
|
Hey; |
|
This for all of y'all to keep on raisin' hell; |
|
Put a pistol in your hand and let you fade yourself; |
|
It ain't right; |
|
What you put your mama through; |
|
Young 'g'; |
|
Gotta change your life; |
|
Take the game from me; |
|
This ain't livin'; |
|
