[Chorus: GLC] I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? [Verse 1: GLC] I miss Ms. West, and I miss my momma Feel like Tom Cruise, in the "Days of Thunder" After the coffee gla**, a playa crash Will I ever get to see him laugh? A playa wonder I got they blessings, I'm in zone come-up Kind of angel hear my questions as I flame my blunt up Or should I save my inner thoughts? Took it all and put up everything that's in the vault Thanks for looking out, when I didn't get caught Did crooked things, to compliment my walk Have you ever seen a friend layin' up in chalk? This is gangsta sh**, at least that's what we thought Now everybody shootin', but as kids we fought What the older hustlers bought, that is what we copped Now the shawties bein' us, and we at fault Cause we showed them the same bullsh** that sent us off [Chorus: GLC] I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? [Verse 2: GLC] Why worry about, making seven figures? Cause when you die, man, they say that you can't take it with you Try tellin' that, to the Kennedys, and the Rockefellers, make paper for centuries Why you think this street life temptin' me? I gotta pay this warranty, and extension fee Man I stay up in the fresh sh** Instead, I shoulda make some investments Now I'm back out here hustlin', hopin' I can get some bread once again Down, down, down, that's what I found, that it all comes tumblin' I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This can detour a G, from takin' righteous steps But he ain't hit me back, I guess he ain't care Turned his back up on a playa like I wasn't there Like I wasn't there? Yeah, you hear me n***a I'm in the gym gettin' cut up like an action figure Honors' society, label me an active member Six-feet deep in thoughts, nothin' will distract this pimpin' [Chorus/Outro: GLC] I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a? I told my mella, that this right here is life or d**h This is gangsta sh**, yeah you hear me n***a?
