When I was in the sixth grade, these niggas was bitch made |
|
They was thinking science, |
|
I was thinking get paid |
|
I always kept a plan to get doe |
|
Like selling the same shit |
|
I use to steal from outta stop-n-go |
|
I use to run a paper route |
|
But that ain't pay me enough, |
|
I was still on the bus |
|
My momma would always tell me don't you rush to get old |
|
But rarely did |
|
I listen to the shit |
|
I was told |
|
I was a ghetto boy long before the rap group existed |
|
I use to take my lunch money and pitch it |
|
I stayed on suspension, |
|
I ain't fuckin' with school |
|
Truant officers be chasin' me, |
|
I'd give 'em the blues |
|
Hit the pipes off of |
|
Roomer just to pass the time |
|
Shoot the shit and walk to |
|
Shamrock, stole me a wine |
|
Get smashed and hit the bus stop when school let out |
|
Get off at tina house and bust that cot |
|
Walk up outta |
|
Ridgemont smelling like fish in my pocket |
|
Then back to the southside walking home from |
|
WatkinsI stopped to see the homies off of |
|
Huckala street |
|
All you game in the front yard bumpin' this beat[Chorus: Z-Ro] |
|
Ever since |
|
I could remember |
|
I been on my grind, |
|
All the time |
|
Nothing but paper and pussy and the finer things on my mind |
|
I had to Shine |
|
By any means necessary |
|
I had to go out and get it |
|
And come back wit it, thug life |
|
I was wit it |
|
My balls and my word told a nigga that the world was mine |
|
That's why |
|
I stay on the grind[Verse 2] |
|
I remember when the dope game started up, serving the hypes |
|
I was seeing more doe than |
|
I ever seen in my life |
|
I was rocking up eightballs and knowing the shake |
|
Kept a thousand in my pocket, twenty more in the safe |
|
I had my grandmother guessing how |
|
I got that shit' |
|
Cause every other day |
|
I had to buy new kicks |
|
Older cats steppin' to me as if |
|
I was the man |
|
Getting telephone calls from my uncle's friends |
|
I'm sixteen years old, with game so throwed |
|
I was parking niggas frontin' me and fucking they hoes |
|
Eventually |
|
I moved out, rented a house |
|
I'm stretching the dope, cuttin' seventeen from an ounce |
|
We cop ya pots fulla spray, |
|
I'm moving big weight |
|
But that was back in the days, nobody thought about a dope case |
|
It's all mapped out, get in get out |
|
They giving mutha fuckas ten years for each rock |
|
It's fucked ain't it, but |
|
I'm lookin' at the picture they done painted |
|
They hanging all these niggas who's careers was dope gamin' |
|
The crack epidemic had you locked if you was in it |
|
And even if you stepped out with bread you couldn't spend it |
|
In the beginning niggas had they whole hoods flooded |
|
Wit that Antonio |
|
Montana disease like "fuck it" |
|
And drug wars just another day in the life |
|
You fucked over me, |
|
I fucked you, done gave me the right[Chorus][Verse 3] |
|
I'm up and down |
|
I-10, with a car full of hens |
|
Finta check my ends, finta get this |
|
BenzStopped short of my drop spot by red lights flashing |
|
I'm dirty, and if he wants to search |
|
I'ma blast him |
|
I roll the windows down so |
|
I can show him my hands |
|
Wouldn't you know, the cop done pulled me over my man |
|
I got a brand new plan take this shit to the line |
|
Stop an Sony's and give it back |
|
I'll give you a dime |
|
With ten thousand you can go to work for a week |
|
Take some time off to think, |
|
I'll even throw in a key |
|
He stopped at the mo', |
|
I gave him the doe |
|
Checked in my room then whooped out the scale and the blow |
|
There's a knock at the door, |
|
I grabbed the four-four |
|
It was the homeboy who set me up down on the floor[Chorus] |
