Live and You Learn |
| Motherfuckers taking pics with their phones |
| The lights flicker and trip 'em like strobes flashin' |
| On my throne, sippin' Manhattans and Old Fashioneds |
| Hard to fathom when my holster get shattered like broke glasses |
| Smoke pass the Road Chassis, road map and slowed traffic |
| No classes, so absent, IQ is below average |
| Growing up knowing that no one is proactive |
| Soak up my emotions, they lowered this closed casket |
| My homies are throat slashers, gold snatchin |
| Old masses, gold fashion, throat bash, Girbaud for the Bo Jacksons |
| Coke addicts, all that they know is the gold habits |
| Won’t catch a break, fumble the ball when they’re throwing passes |
| No ladders, hit a low, you should know what the vocab is |
| Hoes flashed us back then, now they show us the whole package |
| Spin into the tree just like Jacqueline Onassis |
| Blow rappin', they told me it won’t happen |
| Wished they would have told me I would owe taxes |
| I should own my own masses |
| Growing up, you gon' live and you learn |
| One day the lord above gonna give you a turn |
| And when he finally does are you willing to work? |
| To go and get what you’re worth |
| Cause I can give you my word |
| You gotta live and you learn |
| You might’ve been through the worst |
| And it can make you stronger so forget what you heard |
| Just focus on the future, not the shit that occurred |
| This worm slither and squirm |
| The more you dig in the dirt |
| You gotta live and you learn |
| Fuck diplomas, we ain’t study much |
| Plus the drugs corrupted us |
| Fuck instructions, we ain’t know what structure was |
| Hustlers with dreams, my team would scheme |
| Then go stick up the plug, take a shit then run out |
| We ain’t cut out for construction jobs |
| Rhyming ain’t my hobby, couple of my homies love the rush |
| Like the sight of blood and guts and fighting |
| Guys would knuckle up |
| Think cause you got muscles you gon' win this scuffle? |
| We gon' sucker punch you, jump you |
| What the fuck, you thought that we was touching gloves? |
| Usually dudes would grab they gun and bust you when they buttons push |
| Murders and abductions, seeing shit you can’t recover from |
| Trust is gone the moment that your homie fucked the one you love |
| So now you’re drunk as fuck and paying aces at the rub and tug |
| I got it coming cause I used to rub my nuts and cuss |
| Spittin' in the food when I was cooking at the country club |
| But I was young and dumb, destructive saying fuck so and so |
| Such and such, who is who, enough’s enough |
| Growing up, you gon' live and you learn |
| One day the lord above gonna give you a turn |
| And when he finally does are you willing to work? |
| To go and get what you’re worth |
| Cause I can give you my word |
| You gotta live and you learn |
| You might’ve been through the worst |
| And it can make you stronger so forget what you heard |
| Just focus on the future, not the shit that occurred |
| This worm slither and squirm |
| The more you dig in the dirt |
| You gotta live and you learn |
| Homies stealin crotch rockets, I watched em |
| Taking blow torches to vacuums at car washes |
| The kid that sat beside me in class was an armed robber |
| Our fathers walked off, we lost morals, lost marbles |
| Stabbed David, shot Charles, who gon' fall out next? |
| The chick I went to school with, she a shot out mess |
| She the type that shouldn’t be allowed to pop out kids |
| She pregnant with another baby while she shot up meth |
| We a product of our environment, why are we so incapable? |
| Learning from our mistakes to escape what we afraid to move |
| A slave to all our vices, providing the price, we paid to lose |
| But came to prey the food for all the lions, tigers, sabertooths |
| I made it through, I’m like a ragin' bull inside a china shop |
| I survived the shots they fired on the firing squad |
| I just tied the knot, I used to say my timing’s off |
| Forgot a lot of shit, but I remember I was taught |
| Growing up, you gon' live and you learn |
| One day the lord above gonna give you a turn |
| And when he finally does are you willing to work? |
| To go and get what you’re worth |
| Cause I can give you my word |
| You gotta live and you learn |
| You might’ve been through the worst |
| And it can make you stronger so forget what you heard |
| Just focus on the future, not the shit that occurred |
| This worm slither and squirm |
| The more you dig in the dirt |
| You gotta live and you learn |
