| Got cereal, but no milk, Kool-Aid, no sugar, what the hell?
|
| And here come Mr. Billcollector beatin down our door for dough
|
| Mama say when they come knockin
|
| Y’all don’t say nothin (shhh) get on the floor
|
| Kind of hard to see at night in a house when it ain’t got no lights and shit
|
| No gas or water, had to borrow H2O from my relative
|
| Man, it feels like I ain’t even here
|
| I’m ready to get up and get all my own, but I got three more fuckin years
|
| Nigga 15, with a big dream to make it on out this ghetto
|
| But the devil won’t settle, fuckin up my levels he won’t let go
|
| I’m livin to die it seems I just can’t win
|
| Now I’m high, but I’m stopin to realize I drunk this whole fifth of Gin
|
| (Nigga damn!) I’m 17 and drinkin like I’m grown up
|
| I got some problems, plus I need some money
|
| And it’s really all because…
|
| Juvenile nigga done strugglin, hustlin, strugglin like I want it

|
| But on this corner I can eat everyday, all I gotta do is slang this yay
|
| Nigga, If business keep going this way me and my family is fin to be straight
|
| I’m glad I took that fifty dollars that grandma gave me
|
| Bought me a double up, now it’s all about comin up
|
| I’mma pay ya back next week
|
| Repeat, took my ass straight to the block with hand full of rocks, y’all
|
| And it’s my first time I’m lowin, watchin for cop cars
|
| By the end of the night a nigga sold all the rocks
|
| I’m trippin out lookin' at all the dough I got
|
| I shoulda been came a sold the block and locked it
|
| Made me some profits, so nigga tonight my people gonna be eatin on lobster
|
| Hate to say it, but I think these streets done really created a monster
|
| Cause now that I see how quick I can come about breakin the law
|
| Why in the hell is you steady tellin me to go and get a job?
|
| Fuck that, nigga this my thing right now I know
|
| I’m walkin home happy, smilin, and I ain’t even thinkin about…
|
| Business was boomin so a nigga assuming I could do some improving
|
| Like new jewels, clothes, shoes, Cadillac Coupe, I’m out here doin it
|
| Got me a cold ass broad, and that’s something I never had
|
| But I’m never mad cause I done snagged one bad one with my young ass
|
| Once I turned 18 it was on
|
| But my brother started writing home, tellin me to leave this shit alone
|
| I say, what? |
| nigga, he don’t know that I’m too deep in this
|
| I’m livin and breathin the street shit
|
| And if I don’t play the crook, you ain’t gonna have shit on your books
|
| Look, gimme a minute, I’ll chill in a minute I promise I will
|
| As soon as I finished this last load
|
| I’mma drop the dice after this last roll
|
| Little did he know, I got no intentions on leavin this shit here
|
| I’m finna get rich here
|
| When you get out, you’ll have some shit here if you still care
|
| Made enough money to move my moms and pops to a new pad
|
| They was suspicious, but they ain’t trippin
|
| Cause this more shit than we ever had
|
| But shit went bad six in the morning crashing through my door was the Feds
|
| And they want that bread we want you, and I’m like ooh! |

|
