| Yeah, okay
|
| Gangsta, Gangsta Gibbs, nigga
|
| Yeah, I’m down
|
| I got my back against the wall, ready to ride
|
| Better livin' on my mind
|
| See it in my eyes, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yeah, life at a hundred miles an hour, nigga
|
| I live my life in the fastlane, hundred miles an hour
|
| Anything for the cash, mane, marijuana to powder
|
| Peep the style of a ghetto child runnin' wild
|
| At the park, hydroponics gettin' sparked, steppin' over broken crack vials
|
| It’s like this way of livin' chose me
|
| Police approaching me, this ain’t the way I wanna be
|
| This ain’t how I wanna live
|
| I dream about having kids, but I’m afraid
|
| That as they grow they won’t see they daddy live
|
| 'Cause daddy is problematic, daddy got bad habits
|
| Hopefully when I’m older, I look back and I laugh at it
|
| For now, I’ma deal with it
|
| Get my heat and kill with it
|
| I’m droppin' any nigga in the way of my meal ticket, I wonder why
|
| In the ghetto, we really living to die
|
| Hunger pains make you fiend for a slice of the devil’s pie
|
| But it gotta be a better way
|
| Before I lay me down to sleep, I hit my knees and pray
|
| «I'm doing good if I live to see another day»
|
| That’s what they say
|
| People wonder why I live this way
|
| But I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yo, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| I got my back against the wall, ready to ride
|
| Better livin' on my mind
|
| You can see it in my eyes, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yo, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| My attitude is shady from the hood that made me
|
| My parents said they worked so my grandmama raised me
|
| And you know, eventually she got too tired to chase me
|
| So I jumped up off the porch and hit the street runnin' crazy
|
| Nickel-plated .380
|
| I earthed a couple sacks and got my first piece
|
| Ready to raise hell out on the streets
|
| Some old head said: «Freddie, keep your mind on your grip
|
| Ignore the bullshit and never get caught up for a bitch»
|
| Pimpin' ain’t easy but my granddaddy he showed me the ropes
|
| My uncle had me packin' them pistols and hustlin' coke
|
| This ain’t a joke, the results of my love for the dollar, dollar
|
| Got yo baby momma coppin' my product, it’s Guatemalan
|
| Fuck tomorrow, 'cause it ain’t guaranteed
|
| Show me the money, mothafucka
|
| I got a family to feed, a life to live
|
| Stuck between a rock and a hard spot
|
| Another prisoner of the block
|
| «I'm doing good if I live to see another day»
|
| That’s what they say
|
| People wonder why I live this way
|
| But I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| I got my back against the wall, ready to ride
|
| Better livin' on my mind, you can see it in my eyes
|
| I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yo, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| «I'm doing good if I live to see another day»
|
| That’s what they say
|
| People wonder why I live this way
|
| But I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yo, I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| I got my back against the wall, ready to ride
|
| Better livin' on my mind, you can see it in my eyes
|
| I’m just tryin' to make it
|
| Yo, I’m just tryin' to make it |
