[Verse One]
Try to hold us back will be the last thing you did
It's gon' be a major problem in the worst kind of way
People seem to forget, the problems of the world, until they
Scheme and forget your diamonds and your pearls
Now a days in the streets there's no code of honor
No more men amongst men, no respect for they mama
Want chips for fame, whips on dubs
Guns, d** and motherf**ers want love
See people always seem to want a lot for a little
No respect, no manners, loyalty and no principles
No cla**, nothing for that a**
One man's treasure is the next man's trash
Like one man's d**h is the next man's life
Life one man's hoe is the next man's wife
Still, no cla**, nothing for that a**
But one man's treasure is the next man's trash
[Hook]
I'll live for, I'll die for, my people, my people sh**
You need to know
n***as need to know
Got love, get s**, got war, get crazy
Got n***as, got fine a** ladies
sh**, you need to know
n***as, you need to know
[Verse Two]
Ayo it k**s me to see good n***as lose freedom
Lose a life so young and they ain't really do nothing
Snakes in the gra**, snitches in the streets
Flowers on the wall, jealousy in [?]
It's like a motherf**er played like man made AIDS
People k** and get paid, many piss on the grave
Smile in your face, screaming "ride or die"
n***a changing they face
Why they lied on my n***a?
n***as in the hood that'll play real tough
But they tell everything when they in them handcuffs
Smile in your face screaming "ride or die"
n***a changing they face
Why they lied on my n***a?
[Hook]
[Verse Three]
Having raw s**, drinking liquor smoking cigarettes
It ain't funny what people do for the money
Lie, cheat, steal in the land, k** or be k**ed
Hoes on the tracks selling p**y for the bills
Said you don't wanna do it don't do it while you doing it
Some pushing you, keeping your soul from soaring
It's truth, why you fighting if the battle ain't fair?
See the wars want counsel, motherf**er I don't care
To this monstrous life sh** will always be a part of me
Like when dope fiends pumping sh** in they arteries
And as for the ladies, sh** I get 'em all day
And I ain't pumping out songs like Fifty or Jay
Look
[Hook]
