Doing Me |
I know, it get kinda hard sometimes, |
We all looking for some kind of, outlet to plug into, but ahh, |
From the corners of street, |
In every hood and every ghetto |
(AZ) Every hood |
I’m the proof of what could be, if you try |
If you wanna try |
(AZ) It’s on you |
All the haters wanna see, |
(AZ) Uh uhn |
A nigga’s life in misery |
(AZ) Uh uhn |
But I’ma keep on doing me, 'til I die |
Handcuffed by the wrist and tied in the feet |
So stressed, wish that I could die in my sleep |
And Lord knows, thru his grace I done tried it wit peace |
But it’s like niggas ain’t happy 'til they finally deceased |
Feel the grief, of a street, nigga that turned to rap |
And just applied everything that he learned from crack |
I’m in now, it’s life ain’t no turning back |
It been foul so what kinda concerns is that |
Peep the signs of the eyes 'cuz it tell it all |
One of the few in the streets that was selling it raw |
Made mistakes, but it made me intelligent more |
And how I move, you could still look and tell I was poor |
How can the hate from another man stop my flow |
That’s like another pimp thinking he can knock my hoe |
I’m here now, just trying to copp and blow |
Couple of cars and lot’s of doe |
From the corners of street, in every hood and every ghetto |
I’m the proof of what could be, if you try |
If you wanna try |
All the haters wanna see |
A niggas life in misery |
But I’ma keep on doing me, 'til I die |
One by one, seen 'em rise, seen 'em fall |
You seen one nigga ball, you done seen 'em all |
Even standup niggas seen 'em lean and crawl |
What makes a man wanna fiend for more |
Life itself is more than a trial or a quest |
Intelligent wise, it’s like I done ran with the best |
And very rarely, you can catch me casually dressed |
I’m more relaxed in a hat and some sweats |
Doing me, been amongst some of the street’s most strongest men |
Around for months then they gone again |
Incarcerated, penalized for the love of they acts |
Criminals, cold-hearted, now what’s fucing wit that? |
Where we at? |
hit inside of a life that’s rarely exposed |
Spoken in codes for the killers that daily’ll dose |
Get yours, hit a quota then get indoors |
Get legit then get them stores |
From the corners of street, in every hood and every ghetto |
I’m the proof of what could be, if you try |
If you wanna try |
All the haters wanna see |
A niggas life in misery |
But I’ma keep on doing me, 'til I die |
So now it’s on y’all, could see, I done figured it out |
Only a few could say that they been in my house |
And caroused at my wall color, blend with my couch |
I’m as low as you can go in the south |
When it’s too deep, it’s hard for the mind to relate |
Some say I’m too street and way too involved wit the snakes |
What make a man bigger that life, I’m twice his age |
Understand I’m a sinner but I’m nice some ways |
Knee-deep in what I speak 'cuz I spit the truth |
I become angelic when I sit in the booth |
Just a thought of all the ill shit that lurk in streets |
How can another real nigga wanna work wit police |
Bad enough you got thiefs and the beef is rough |
I took an oath just to smoke, eat, sleep and fuck |
Knowledge of self, I’ma do this regardless of wealth |
Regardless of how the deck and how the cards get dealth |
From the corners of street, in every hood and every ghetto |
I’m the proof of what could be, if you try |
If you wanna try |
All the haters wanna see |
A niggas life in misery |
But I’ma keep on doing me, 'til I die |
