Just Tryin' Ta Make It |
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 |
