|
To a game of ghetto laser tag |
|
When they say 'what it is' |

You scream 'what it ain't' |

Either you bring it |

Sometimes it gets kind of messy out there |

|
One day at a time |
|
[t-boz] |
|
Stuck on me at waffle house |
|
After 1:12, when i go out |
|
Where do you hang? |
|
Or do you slang? |
|
Or wear a chain? |
|
Wear platinum rings? |
|
I still maintain my ghetto siren |
|
Keep my pride |
|
Get in my ride |
|
Twenty-inch rims |
|
I sport a brim |
|
And when my girls |
|
Go to the mall |
|
Around the world |
|
And keep the change |
|
The finest things |
|
We still remain so ooh |

You big plastic girl |
|

|
You like two doors |
|
Frontin' their clothes and rolls |
|
Or sit on the porch sip something real cold |
|

|
I do suits while you prefer the lows |
|
Tonight i'mma choose cause you already chose |
|
Grown for the business and i run to flow |

So ghetto like hot fries |
|
I come from melvin and resemble |
|
Twenty-twenty with his blood shot eyes, got 32 loads |
|
Went from two o's to 32 loads |
|
Which is enough to buy a roll |
|
But nobody knows |
|
Stay in my place |
|
Keep my diamonds out of your face |
|
You wanna be with this player |
|
You got play at my pace |
|

|
If you want some bullshit you better buy you some |
