| They’ll be a man
|
| One to lead his people into victory
|
| One who goes through time
|
| One who seen pain
|
| The one who see’s the glory
|
| That man is I, Capone
|
| The leader, follow me
|
| They wanna beat me like Rodney
|
| See me like Pac
|
| Have me like O.J. |
| doing 100 in the drop
|
| Railroad me like the Hurricane but I won’t stop, let’s go
|
| Look at my life (look at my life)
|
| Look at my life, I’ma gangsta (gangsta, gangsta, gangsta)
|
| Look at my life (look at my life)
|
| Look at my life, I’ma gangsta (gangsta)
|
| I’ma gangsta
|
| Yo, yo
|
| Take a journey through my life
|
| Walk through the nights with me
|
| It’s a long road ahead of us, I hope that your nights crispy
|
| Queensbridge, a trife city delapidated slums
|
| I’ve seen political homicides and crack related ones
|
| Pac and Bigggie, god bless em I don’t know where to begin
|
| Forgive me lord for I’ve committed a sin
|
| I sold crack to my mans mom
|
| I feed my uncle dope in his arm
|
| I testify to every word wrote in this song
|
| Except the 5th commandment, thou shall not kill
|
| I obviously ignored it cause my blood shall not spill
|
| So I chose to squeeze first
|
| Put you 6 feet deep in the dirt
|
| And watch your cold soul emerge from the earth
|
| I was a star first, then I grew into the sun
|
| Destined to shine over the planet
|
| Till I came across a gun, infactutated by the sound
|
| When the shots get sprayed, like (gunshots)
|
| I’m about to take the streets through another phase
|
| I’m amazed I’m still living
|
| I came close to the end of my days
|
| I couldn’t let the streets raise my two siblings
|
| Or my kid, I’m too thoro, I survived through prison
|
| Collide with rival clicks spitting, listen
|
| I live life like I’m racing to an early death
|
| Exceeding the speed limit, with no brakes
|
| Quiet when I step, reality bites
|
| I’m gangsta for life, so I squeeze like
|
| I hold the mac precise
|
| With 32 shot clips
|
| And turn your hard top into a convertible drop whip
|
| They talking to rappers, chose my name to reflect
|
| I’m hot, grimy entertainers come
|
| Drama east to west
|
| I don’t wanna kill no more
|
| At times I hear death knocking at my front door
|
| Feeling like I’m being watched everytime that I score
|
| What if the pigs got me on survaillance
|
| A rebel to the law, I got 2 strikes against me
|
| 1 shot in me, a vest and a semi
|
| It’s me against the world don’t tempt me
|
| Ah yo lets all bust from jail, a mink
|
| A pound of the real, a 37 inch link
|
| Money in the bank, a Coup to match it
|
| I was released like a boss mis-acting
|
| You know the kind of thing a gangsta could relax in
|
| Lifes a bitch, but fuck it
|
| Trying to keep my whole faculty covered
|
| And spits more like an iraqian thugging
|
| If you wanna take me, mommy I’m coming
|
| But if not, they can never break
|
| I’ma keep gunning and bust shots
|
| I’m the one that was running from the cops
|
| I bust back at them niggas
|
| It’s real man I came from the bottom — strivin'
|
| Label to label, with the Yankees now (look at my life)
|
| I’m with big bosses (look at my life I’m a gangsta)
|
| The life, it’s the loud, the mourns, the kings
|
| We movin up now (look at my life)
|
| Big gangsta moves (look at my life)
|
| Taking care of bussiness
|
| My niggas up north — Got you
|
| STREETS — I’M A GANGSTA (I'm a gangsta)
|
| (music fades) |
