[Verse 1] |
|
May the Lord bless the child that can hold his own in this day in time |
|
And waits for no man or the wo-man, sun rise; starts to grind |
|
And the early cat; eats the bird that gets the worm, we find |
|
The results always stay the same, nine out of ten tries |
|
I'ma grind; never mind how my neighbor flips a dime into a dollar |
|
Says the scholar from the school of hard livin |
|
Play the cards I was given from the dealer, with a smile |
|
Take a swallow from the Coke and then I mix it with the Crown |
|
So surprised, I'm still alive doin fine instead of crime |
|
I got off easy as a kid, but this karma is a bitch |
|
You reap what you sow, niggas better learn to stitch |
|
On the search for extra dollars, one thing you can't forget |
|
[Hook] |
|
Karmaaaa |
|
It'll catch up wit'chu one day, you can ask your Mamaaaaaa |
|
She'll say "What goes around comes back" because there's no honoooor; |
|
Amongst theives, gotta shake the leaves and empty your armoiiiir |
|
Because karma is a bitch, and every bitch loves dramaaaaaa |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Now we've been in this game for ten years makin rap tunes |
|
Ever since rappers was hollerin cash rules |
|
Before it was cool to have all these tattoos |
|
You put out negative energy, you get bad news |
|
You hang with positive people, you win mo' |
|
Never throw the first stone, you might miss ya window |
|
Damn near sold my soul, that's too much info |
|
Booked some overpriced shows that I ain't make a cent fo' |
|
Finances in limbo, have my own family to fend fo' |
|
Help them my kinfolk, it came back ten-fold |
|
What goes around comes around, it'll catch up |
|
When ya least expect it, please accept that that's just |
|
[Hook] |
|
Karmaaaa |

|

|

|
[Verse 3] |
|
Simple veto, right out of a Bible bill |
|
Prayer sayer, look at what the Bible left |
|
Slum, heavy-set, row ton |
|
Do the work, then you know it's gon' come |
|
Feel good, call life good |
|
Great day cause the night good |
|
What I say when it write good |
|
Yo hood is my hood, my hood and yo hood, so we all hood |
|
But it's all about the next step, puff pass golf |
|
The next breath, get it in and that's that |
|
Answer to the prayers of my grand dad |
|
Runnin through these Billie Jeans |
|
Still Michael Jackson bad |
|
[Hook] |
