Plow! |
|
Ba-da-ba-a-a-ah |
|
Comin down now |
|
Spice 1 |
|
Ya know |
|
Jah man |
|
Come again |
|
Everybody wanna go to heaven |
|
But don't nobody wanna die |
|
Life's too sweet to pass by |
|
Lookin at the hourglass, I |
|
See how fast time fly |
|
I keep a strong will to live |
|
I be a old man with a lotta game to give |
|
I'll make the kids do somethin more positive |
|
Instead of bein like me, a thug or gee |
|
Tryin to stay up out the penitentiary |
|
I got a whole army, some r.i.p. |
|
Some stuck in a cell, some out on bail |
|
Some doin major fed time in jail |
|
I'm lookin at the world with hungry eyes |
|
Inner city full of jealousy and lies |
|
Hopin that the Lord'll hear my cries |
|
Help a young black male rise |
|
Enemies pose as friends |
|
Player never know when his life'll end |
|
Can't trust too many, can't cross the game |
|
Walk with my head down in the rain |
|
Think about greed, some disease |
|
Cause everybody rappin still gettin cheese |
|
Some think about the pain that they inflict |
|
And some don't think, just stack the chips |
|
[ CHORUS ] |
|
Everyone wan to go to heaven |
|
But nobody wan to die |
|
Mi say |
|
Everyone want a million dollar |
|
But nobody want to work |
|
Everybody want a million |
|
More jails, less schools for the children |
|
Invest in a penitentiary |
|
Makin money off niggas like you and me |
|
My God, it's the turn of the century |
|
I wonder what the game got in store for me |
|
Will it be a lotta seeds, my gees be free |
|
Or be six feet deep on the day of release? |
|
I can't stand it, lost in the game again |
|
Will I win? Nobody knows in the end |
|
I keep strugglin, pullin on the game of life |
|
Try to stay on my toes, up on the edge of knife |
|
I'm wakin up from the nightmares, who cares? |
|
God, I heard death comin up the stairs |
|
I got the past still hauntin me |
|
Still knowin how my enemies want me |
|
You never know when it's time to go |
|
The blind lead the blind |
|
If you don't know the game, get left behind |
|
No love, hold up, what you thinkin of? |
|
Youngsters on the corner goin dub for dub |
|
You can't tell em, cause ain't nobody payin em mo' |
|
Lost in the thug life, gone for sho' |
|
Too many young players six feet in the flo' |
|
As another one goes as modern-day hero |
|
[ CHORUS ] |
|
To other rappers that rose out the concrete, stay strong |
|
Have faith in God, it won't be too long, hold on |
|
Never lose faith in dreams |
|
Watch the next people, they canive and scheme |
|
A cold world, ghetto kids born to die |
|
Some fall in the game without a chance to fly |
|
In too deep, can't escape the drama |
|
Too much drama for a young player, young timer |
|
Pushed in the game at the age of 12 |
|
Hangin on the block, all about the mail |
|
It's hard livin, somebody gotta lace the young |
|
Before they get enough rope to leave theyself hung |
|
Hardcore livin in the projects (projects) |
|
Hustlers schemin for the profit (profit) |
|
Mo' cash comes in and go fast |
|
Toe-tags, dead homies in bodybags |
|
Where it stops, nobody knows |
|
I'm paranoid, is these enemies or foes? |
|
Can't call it, sleep with a open eye |
|
This world'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry |
|
Stay real, keep a strong mind and strive |
|
Cause what it boils down to is stayin alive |
|
Nigga strugglin, keep your eye on the game |
|
And never stay the same, things always change |
|
[ CHORUS ] |
