[00:00.52] |
|
[00:02.39] |
Things just ain't the same for gangstas. |
[00:02.99] |
Times is changing, young niggas is aging, |
[00:04.96] |
Becoming old gees in the game and changing, |
[00:07.38] |
To make way for these new names and faces, but |
[00:09.86] |
The strangest things can happen from rappin, when |
[00:12.63] |
Niggas get wrapped up in image and acting, |
[00:14.98] |
Niggas get capped up and wrapped in plastic, |
[00:17.23] |
Zipped up in bags when it happens, that's it. |
[00:19.76] |
I've seen 'em come; I've watched 'em go, |
[00:21.92] |
Watched 'em rise, witnessed it and watched 'em blow. |
[00:24.69] |
Watched 'em all blossom and watched 'em grow. |
[00:26.88] |
Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough. |
[00:29.31] |
Best friends and money: I lost them both. |
[00:31.84] |
Went, visited niggas in the hospital. |
[00:34.25] |
It's all the same shit all across the globe. |
[00:36.77] |
I just sit back and watch the show. (The watcher) |
[00:38.48] |
|
[00:39.09] |
Chorus: |
[00:39.57] |
Everywhere that I go |
[00:41.08] |
Ain't the same as befo' (The watcher) |
[00:43.82] |
People I used to know |
[00:45.84] |
Just don't know me no more (The watcher) |
[00:48.08] |
But everywhere that I go |
[00:50.81] |
I got people I know (The watcher) |
[00:53.23] |
Who got people they know |
[00:55.40] |
So I suggest you lay low (I watch) |
[00:57.45] |
|
[00:58.06] |
I moved out of the hood for good, you blame me? |
[01:01.47] |
Niggas aim mainly at niggas they can't be. |
[01:04.01] |
But niggas can't hit niggas they can't see. |
[01:06.33] |
I'm out of sight, now I'm out of they dang reach. |
[01:08.94] |
How would you feel if niggas wanted you killed? |
[01:11.43] |
You'd probably move to a new house on a new hill. |
[01:13.99] |
And choose a new spot if niggas wanted you shot, |
[01:16.49] |
I ain't a thug, how much Tupac in you, you got |
[01:18.82] |
I ain't no bitch neither. |
[01:20.37] |
It's either my life or your life, |
[01:22.23] |
And I ain't leaving, I like breathing. |
[01:23.78] |
Nigga we can go round for round, |
[01:25.94] |
Clip for clip, shit, fo'-pound for pound. |
[01:28.28] |
Nigga if you really want to take it there we can, |
[01:30.61] |
Just remember that you fucking with a family man. |
[01:33.20] |
I got a lot more to lose than you, remember that, |
[01:35.84] |
When you wanna come and fill these shoes. (The watcher) |
[01:38.07] |
|
[01:38.55] |
Chorus: |
[01:39.06] |
Everywhere that I go |
[01:40.12] |
Ain't the same as befo' (The watcher) |
[01:42.85] |
People I used to know |
[01:44.89] |
Just don't know me no more (The watcher) |
[01:47.56] |
But everywhere that I go |
[01:50.15] |
I got people I know (The watcher) |
[01:52.69] |
Who got people they know |
[01:54.79] |
So I suggest you lay low (I watch) |
[01:56.47] |
|
[02:07.84] |
Things just ain't the same for gangstas, |
[02:10.31] |
Cops is anxious to put niggas in handcuffs. |
[02:12.93] |
They wanna hang us, see us dead, enslave us, |
[02:15.25] |
Keep us trapped in the same place we're raised in. |
[02:17.74] |
Then they wonder why we act so outrageous, |
[02:20.02] |
Run around stressed out and pull out gauges. |
[02:22.51] |
Cause everytime you let the animal out cages, |
[02:24.86] |
It's dangerous to people who look like strangers. |
[02:27.47] |
But now we got a new era of gangstas, |
[02:30.06] |
Hustlers and youngsters living amongst us. |
[02:32.37] |
Lookin at us, now calling us busters, |
[02:34.91] |
Can't help but reminisce back when it was us. |
[02:37.37] |
Nigga we started this gangsta shit. |
[02:39.56] |
And this the motherfucking thanks I get? |
[02:42.22] |
It's funny how time fly, |
[02:44.49] |
I'm just having fun, just watching it fly by. (The watcher) |
[02:46.88] |
|
[02:47.29] |
Chorus: |
[02:47.83] |
Everywhere that I go |
[02:49.13] |
Ain't the same as befo' (The watcher) |
[02:51.35] |
People I used to know |
[02:53.91] |
Just don't know me no more (The watcher) |
[02:56.10] |
But everywhere that I go |
[02:58.68] |
I got people I know (The watcher) |
[03:01.61] |

[03:03.59] |
So I suggest you lay low (I watch) |
[03:06.33] |
|
[03:11.32] |
