Trying 2 Beat Da Odds |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
Ain’t know avoid getting killed was go never be this hard |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
Niggas don’t want to see me with shit the white man don’t neither |
That’s why I ride everyday drank my liquor and smoke my reefer |
The mexicans the only mother fuckers they put beneath us |
I guess if you poor and white the world don’t fuck with you neither |
I get it I understand I’m black so ain’t equal |
When you from the hood though that shit run a lil deeper |
And one mother fucker in my hood that done never became a doctor |
And one body in my family who done never became a lawyer |
My daddy sold dope that shit hard not to follow |
My momma did her best but she had her own problems |
My brother two times loose that’s a whole bother saga |
Every nigga in my click at some point was a robber |
It’s hard to think different cause shit I’m from the projects |
Soon as you make a lil money got to spend it fight charges |
Ain’t pussy I’ma hundred so I can’t live with cautions |
I’m just trying to make show my wins out weigh my loses |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
Ain’t know avoid getting killed was go never be this hard |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
It’s a thousand niggas that die for every one nigga that make it out |
My homie can’t even read but do his thang with the pots |
His momma been dead his daddy smoking rocks |
He can’t get a job some might say it’s his own fault |
Sometime situations can change what you was taught |
My momma and daddy wasn’t together I wonder where I’d be |
Cause most the shit I know now I learned it from the streets |
Cause being a certain color it attracts the police |
And when you live in certain areas you can never get peace |
My momma biggest fear me dying in these streets |
But if ain’t up in it how the fuck I’m go eat |
And it’s sad to say but nobody in my family got a degree |
A nigga playing ball and dropped out for the streets |
And got involved in hustling and got in too deep |
The shit got over my head and the nigga couldn’t even see |
The streets ain’t the honest but I’ma be all I can be |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
Ain’t know avoid getting killed was go never be this hard |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I just got one wish for drop me in a casket |
To wake up one morning and see my momma happy |
I wanna salute God for all the bad shit that happened |
Cause everything that went wrong now I understand it |
He protect me from my enemies protect me when I was trapping |
He left when I was lil but I still forget my daddy |
The world done got rough everything done got drastic |
I’m just a black man that’s the color of my family |
If I’m ever go make it the hustle I got to marry |
The road done been rough but I refuse to let it try me |
I done made some mistakes but shit ain’t embarrassed |
I got to beat the odds cause one day I’ma parish |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
Ain’t know avoid getting killed was go never be this hard |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
They say one out of ten blacks we go die behind bars |
Say we was born in the ghetto then we ain’t go make it far |
To keep it real with you my nigga I’m just trying to beat the odds |
I’m just trying to beat the odds |
