Andre Harris - Hustler's Dream lyrics

(Intro: Game) Dre and Vidal n***as play everything live, n***a Like Kool & the Gang back in the day n***a play it live, n***a f** you n***as know about making beats? You don't know sh** Pussies (Ha ha) f** you ever seen a n***a in his 20's with a guitar, b**h? (Verse 1: Game) Mother's only son, so I Had to knock a n***a the f** out on the block if he Made my sisters cry I was O-Dog in Larenz Tate's dreams Red everything n***as know what I mean Red rag top and I made the dash pop Before n***as came with stash spots, man I was a dope man, dope man I tried to tell em' I could never be a felon I was too good at sellin' crack, X, speed and h**n Fiends call me Monroe, cause I used to k** em' down in Marilyn Puttin' n***as underground give me a shovel He still alive f** him, I was on that level Back then I ain't believe in God If they heal like they say on TV, why bullets leave a scar? Revenge is a feelin, but on my son's life When I catch the two n***as that shot me I'mma, k** em' (Hook: Anthony Hamilton) Desperate moments I've been waiting all my life (All my life) No mistakes I promise this will be my time (My time) I know hustlin' leads us to an early grave But it's the only way, how come n***as dying every day? (Verse 2: Game) I watched the coke price double up I was too young to be a cook, so I had to sit back and watch it bubble up Sittin' in the window seein' gang bangers knuckle up Watchin' the wind blow girls' skirts while they double dutch I had straight D's I wasn't in much trouble much Either you do my homework for me or I'mma f** you up Moms lied for me told her friends I was a nice student Would a' had all A's if algebra was Ice Cube There it is, I studied a veteran Hoping that one day I could be a f**ing hip hop legend I listened to Nas, Big, Dre, Snoop And even though Pac hated him, I bumped Jay too Bought Reasonable Doubt and let it play straight through Used to throw my head back, like Kanye do n***as never thought that I would break through Irv Gotti, and P Diddy pa**ed but Jimmy and Dre knew (Hook: Anthony Hamilton) Desperate moments I've been waiting all my life No mistakes I promise this will be my time I know hustlin' leads us to an early grave But it's the only way, how come n***as dying every day? (Bridge: Game and Anthony Hamilton) A.H take em' to church Our father who art in Heaven Hallowed be thy Name Thy kingdom come thy founding father Protect the Game (Yes sir) Please show the way (Yes) Open up the gate (Yes) Free us from pain (Yes sir) But it's the only way, how come n***as dying every day? (Verse 3: Game) I'm talking to my n***as, All Stars and Timberlands (North face is a pin and it's a million thugs marching) For the dearly departed I elevated my knowledge They say that I was name droppin', I was just paying homage For Lil' E and Tiana, I'm sayin' that dear mama help me read between the lines pa** periods and Commas The million dollar baby young homie tryna' prosper Act like you don't see me, you might win a Oscar Act like you don't see me, I might just pop ya n***as singing like Sinatra I box like Bernard Hopkins Left jab like Oscar, I'm the golden boy You n***as seen what happened to Roy Yeah, you n***as seen what happened to Roy On my block n***as box we the knockout boys Sitting in the throne with the doja sparkin', it's my seat and I ain't moving like Rosa Parks Ima be here (Hook: Anthony Hamilton) Desperate moments I've been waiting all my life No mistakes I promise this will be my time I know hustlin' leads us to an early grave But it's the only way, how come n***as dying every day?
