Yeah yeah,mic check also um
I wanna make sure my sh** clear
Public Service Announcement
You gotta, always hope for the best
Always you know but err, be prepared
For the worst, the hustle
[Verse]
I remember '99 I was nothing but a lil thug
George Bush was about to be the president
Clinton got impeach, tryna get the peach
He was thinking bout the people and that's evident
Talk a walk down through the house of residents
Drug corners like a 40 acre settlement
All you needed was a wheel for the cargo
But the powder from the flower start pedaling
Years in the game I'm nothing shorter than a veteran
Talking hard rap, you can call me Led Zepplin
Hollywood thought they never had to let the ghetto in
There's things we ain't never seen and places
We ain't never been, can a ghetto n***a ever win
Why did heaven let the devil in, gave a n***a a chance
To get it right, do better, but he knew that he
Would fell again, baptized in the street fire
You know we never gone retire
A n***a always ready for the war, cos we don't
Never really cease fire
[Hook]
Real n***a put his life on the line
Standing on the front line, tell a n***a one time
Can I have what's rightfully mine?
Can I have what's rightfully mine?
Real n***a put his life on the line
All I know is go time, I ain't got no time
Gotta get what's rightfully mine
Gotta get what's rightfully mine
Yeah use your dollar put cha life on the line
Never know you don't try I won't tell you no lie
Gotta put cha life on the line
You gotta put cha life on the line
Yeah
[Verse: Broadway]
I've been risking my life tryna get to the money
Now all of these haters try taking it from me
Used to wanna to the rain now I wake up in the sunny
Now I guess that's how you feel when your
Getting to the money()
Used to be jaws now my feet up in the morris
First round draft sh**, ballin like Jabori
Wanna talk weed I'm blowing like a molly
Man Dana Gould sh** how I'm k**ing out my story
Put my life on the front line, tryna duck the one time
Used to be standing in the lunch line, now it's
Straight pasta when it's lunch time(naw)
Fifteen years in the life of crime
Jail system took five years of time
But that ain't stopping nothing I be still putting pressure
On these motherf**ing people 'til I get mine(yeah doe)
[Hook]
