| This might sound crazy but
|
| I love suffering, I love struggle, I love pain
|
| 'Cause what don’t kill you make you stronger nigga
|
| And I’m as strong as they come
|
| I love the streets 'cause that’s what made me me
|
| Without the streets, baby, I couldn’t eat
|
| I love the streets and although we was poor'
|
| Without struggle boy you can’t grow
|
| I love the streets and even though we sold drugs
|
| And paid for it in blood, I love the streets
|
| No matter what happened to me
|
| My hood or your hood, it’s all good
|
| I love the streets
|
| Right now, my life don’t mean an awful lot
|
| If I died today, who think the world gon' stop?
|
| There’s a million niggaz just like me on the block
|
| It’s either entertainment or sports or sellin' that rock
|
| Think the judge gon' take ya word over a cops?
|
| You be just another nigga that they stick in the box
|
| But we are the streets, what other choice we got?
|
| Then to go hard, give them niggaz all we got
|
| Fuck that as long as I got breath in my lungs
|
| I’m livin' my life, waitin' for my death to come
|
| If you made it out the hood then God blessed you son
|
| But if your fam there you ain’t out lesson one
|
| Gotta spread around nigga that’s what’s real to me
|
| Turn on the news, swear the shit be killin' me
|
| Y’all from the streets probably ain’t feelin' me
|
| You could take me out the hood but it’s still in me
|
| I love the streets 'cause that’s what made me me
|
| Without the streets, baby, I couldn’t eat
|
| I love the streets and although we was poor'
|
| Without struggle boy you can’t grow
|
| I love the streets and even though we sold drugs
|
| And paid for it in blood, I love the streets
|
| No matter what happened to me
|
| My hood or your hood, it’s all good
|
| I love the streets
|
| Fools is fake, I come through with the ghoulish face
|
| Take small step, big moves I make
|
| I could put it to your face then choose your fate
|
| Everyday, Thanksgivin' for me two plates
|
| Yeah, we do grace, God bless it all
|
| From the mess hall to the boulevard with the dead dogs
|
| When we cough and spit, guns they speak
|
| The same language is the bullets, who talkin' shit?
|
| Yo, Pac if ya listenin' they got the game twisted
|
| Talkin' 'bout the hate you gave little infants
|
| Fuck everybody here today, place ya ways
|
| And ya fade away like the memory of Gotti
|
| Take it back to '90, last year high school
|
| Didn’t graduate though, still had to make dough
|
| That’s my word, word for word I understood it all
|
| Had big dreams though the hood is small
|
| I love the streets 'cause that’s what made me me
|
| Without the streets, baby, I couldn’t eat
|
| I love the streets and although we was poor
|
| Without struggle boy you can’t grow
|
| I love the streets and even though we sold drugs
|
| And paid for it in blood, I love the streets
|
| No matter what happened to me
|
| My hood or your hood, it’s all good
|
| I love the streets |
