Street Life |
I was born on the 9th month, 9th day, '70 I arrived |
Down to earth just like my mama but LV gave me my South Park side |
I real hustler, got game in his blood |
Mama real too, through them I developed two kinds of love |
One for that street life but the other for peace |
But the two can’t live together, so inside I’m a beast |
I’m mystified by the cash flow that I never seen |
Partners coming up doing dirt while I’m broke living clean |
Know what I mean? |
Picture being on the cut walking |
What I thought was just my conscience on the cool was just the law talking |
Telling me I need to live my life legitimate |
I’m in the Mr Fiends with money tryna get a hit |
I block him out, snatch the paper, pass the rock and shout |
«Get off my corner», any shiest manoeuvres, knock him out |
No more school, I’m dropping out, pockets popping out |
Everything new, me and the crew, yeah I’m talking about that. |
Street life, hustling for a living |
Street life, taking never giving |
All night, tryna ease the pain I’m feeling |
The world is making it hard on me |
Tryna find a way to make it better |
Knowing I- we’ve been doing this forever |
So I’m down for whatever |
The world is making it hard on me |
I’m tryna turn a dollar into 15 G’s |
Got to flip my game 360 degrees |
Started asking myself questions, tripping, tryna soul search |
Am I a hypocrite for putting dope money in church? |
Through the bad I’m tryna do some good |
This brother told me when you come up, open up a business in the hood |
Never did ‘cause I let the streets make me hard |
My mama threw up her hands and said, «Take me Lord» |
When she found that sack in my room full of crack |
She made me raise out the crib and said, «Don't come back» |
Didn’t faze me ‘cause I knew that the game pays me |
Mama brought me in the world but the hood raised me |
I’m just a teen tryna live good so understand |
Caught in-between a mind of childhood and being a man |
I’m losing touch bur never lost the love for the game |
My partners feel me ‘cause they going through the same in that… |
Street life, hustling for a living |
Street life, taking never giving |
All night, tryna ease the pain I’m feeling |
The world is making it hard on me |
Tryna find a way to make it better |
Knowing I- we’ve been doing this forever |
So I’m down for whatever |
The world is making it hard on me |
Picture all them crack pipes with nobody lighting |
Picture blacks at a club and nobody fighting |
Picture everybody paid with no bother |
Picture all babies growing up with a father |
I had to stay paid so dirt was my alternative |
Went to the Mosque, they told me that I need to learn to live |
Positive and never disrespect my own |
How the Hell we call ourselves grown and live at home |
With mama starting drama talking back and throwing a fit |
You better love her while she here ‘cause when she’s gone that’s it |
You’re feeling like you wanna change but the chance is slim |
You got two kids now you’re tryna live your life through them |
Hoping they don’t make the same mistake you made and fail |
It took them years to know it’s hard to raise a son in jail |
Ain’t nothing new to K-Rino, man I know all about that |
We need to unite and do right and raise up out that… |
Street life, hustling for a living |
Street life, taking never giving |
All night, tryna ease the pain I’m feeling |
The world is making it hard on me |
Tryna find a way to make it better |
Knowing I- we’ve been doing this forever |
So I’m down for whatever |
The world is making it hard on me |
