[al:Life's So Hard On A G (UNRELEASED)]
[00:10.94]Resist the temptation of the beast
[00:11.23]You slip and loose your grip and forever fall asleep
[00:15.73]The venom is contagious, be wary of its spell
[00:18.17]What you thought would be heaven, turns out to be hell
[00:20.51]I wonder if she knows, the devil's taking off her clothes
[00:23.73]Deep into her soul, slow, now he's in control
[00:26.34]Poppa's doing worse, a victim of his deadly curse
[00:29.02]Wouldn't be the first, to leave the ghetto in a hearse
[00:31.77]Oh and how it hurts, the children pay the biggest price
[00:34.40]Never get the chance, to grow up with a happy life
[00:36.88]Blame it on the rock, but we know that's a bunch of crap
[00:40.06]Someone from the top, supplying us with plenty crack
[00:42.54]Keep 'em in a daze, don't let them see the other way
[00:45.33]Let 'em all get paid, won't live to see another day
[00:48.14]See they never got a breath of the sunshine
[00:50.69]Now the kid's addicted and only hit it one time
[00:53.55]We're destined to be dead as a nation
[00:55.62]Don't let it come to this, resist the temptation
[00:59.31]
[01:21.00]Gamble for your soul with the devil
[01:23.06]You wonder how low, can you go, before you finally reach the lowest level
[01:26.65]As everybody sit and stares
[01:28.45]There's no use looking in your eyes cause there isn't anybody there
[01:31.78]And though it may make you wanna cry
[01:33.79]Got you stealing from your family and you don't even know why
[01:37.28]I guess you think they'll understand
[01:39.61]You feel cold, cause you sold your soul to the dopeman
[01:42.46]Oh now there's no turning back, in fact
[01:44.83]I's decided, that would live and die for the crack
[01:47.61]You got no friends cause you cheated 'em all
[01:50.13]Feel lonely, low, defeated and small
[01:52.64]No one was there when I took the wrong path
[01:55.61]And nobody'd care if I died in a blood bath
[01:58.44]But is this my destiny?
[02:00.42]Tell the lord they got my mind, but he can have the rest of me
[02:03.78]Cause I'm ready to end it all
[02:06.62]One bullet to the brain, forgive my sins and all
[02:09.17]I didn't mean to be a bother
[02:11.90]A failure as a son, a husband and a father
[02:14.96]I wish I could turn back the time
[02:17.49]Go back and find, why I let it crack my mind
[02:20.55]And my only explanation, it came to this
[02:24.08]Resist the temptation
