|
| (War & peace, war & peace)
|
| It’s a rough life of a gangster
|
| (life of a gangster, life of a gangster)

| Let me tell you something
|
| Is there a heaven for a G?
|
| That’s what I been wondering
|
| Broken lights drug abuse
|
| All kinds of crimes
|
| Youngster on the corner
|
| Slangin them nickels and dimes
|
| One time’s
|
| Placing us on arrest
|
| Veteranos living tough
|
| It’s another drug bust
|
| Liquor stores on my corner
|
| With the windows locked
|
| All the homies gettin popped
|
| Closing off the block
|
| Ghetto birds on my sky
|
| Just to live and die
|
| Politicians passing bills
|
| Just to keep the city divide
|
| Homicide gang injunction in place
|
| Theres no turning back
|
| Tattoos filling the face
|
| Smile now cry later is the attitude
|
| Crash units setting up narcs
|
| To make their moves
|
| Faces bruised with the knuckles bust
|
| Trippin off angel dust
|
| Living life so rough
|
| It’s a rough life of a gangster
|
| (life of a gangster, life of a gangster)
|
| Living right here on these streets
|
| Torn between war & peace
|
| (War & peace, war & peace)
|
| It’s a rough life of a gangster
|
| (life of a gangster, life of a gangster)
|
| Rolling through neighboorhood blocks
|
| Lit them shots dodging cops (so rough so rough)
|
| It’s so rough
|
| Police brutality
|
| Everybody got more enemies
|
| The homies packing Glocks
|
| Everbody having felonies
|
| Dirty money just to pay the rent
|
| Fuck the president
|
| Never gave the neighborhood a cent
|
| They got money for wars
|
| But can’t feed the poor
|
| So we join a gang now
|
| We’re labeled hardcore
|
| Forced to survive
|
| Product of the system
|
| In and out of jail
|
| And my cousin I miss him
|
| It’s that rough life
|
| So you got to earn your stripes
|
| Its do or die just to survive
|
| All these homicide pee wees
|
| Gettin colder trying to do right
|
| When there’s haters on every corner
|
| Everybody representing
|
| Drinking some bud
|
| Gettin drunk at the club
|
| Gettin kicked out for acting up
|
| Livin rough
|
| Can’t get no peace
|
| Survival of the fittest
|
| Out on these man made streets
|
| It’s a rough life of a gangster
