The System |
This Ones for those on the dead end street |
Hustlin hard to make all they ends meet |
I hope one day I see yo benz creep |
Watch for the jealousy that most friends keep |
S-P got the Bentley |
All I can do is thank god cause he blessed me |
I used to be just like you |
Slangin crack rock on the avenue |
Packin Glocks and runnin from cops |
Most of my clients like they cane on the rocks |
Gun shots like 2 blocks away |
I wonda who the fuck caught a hot one today |
Neva mind cause I don’t wanna know |
I just lost two good friends in the row |
One second things is lookin beautiful |
The next second you can start off the funeral |
All my friends are in the dead end street |
Some locked up and some are R-I-P |
You can’t win there ain’t no way no how |
Clock your change and get the fuck on out |
We was Pyrex shakers |
Sunny Side money makers |
In Hillwood we had rocks big as now and laterz |
QuikStop was the store where we slung at |
Everybody knew me for my hundred packs |
Across the street was law elementry |
My car was so clean kids was lookin up to me |
They wanna be like me a tru hustla |
Cause they daddy drives an old gas guzzla |
The dope deala I ain’t tryina brag but |
Fuck watchin roaches tryina climb out my bath tub |
I was a hard head tryina be a drug lord |
Slow my roll nah homie what the fuck for |
Im in the 2 bed trailor man im dirt poor |
When hurricanes would kome id run next door |
To my homies house his name is huet hodges |
We gonna make out this ghetto man I promise |
99 percent of all criminals are dope dealers |
Get busted by bullets or fuckin squeelers |
And the One percent that made it was pure luck |
But even he’ll tell that his life ain’t worth a fuck |
Cause in his mind he was caught a thousand times |
And in his mind he was shot a thousand times |
Without peace there can be no happiness |
I wear a cross around my neck like the catholics |
Im not sure exaclty what my religion is |
I just know I thank god for my little kids |
This is the baddest sellin drugs like sum guinnie pigs |
Then they arrest us after we done make it big |
They take our money our cars and our houses |
Now tell me whos really sellin the ounces |
And any cash that we might have hidden |
Goes to the system tryin to stay out of prison |
— repeat 2X |
