BG Knocc Out & Gangsta Dresta - Life's a Puzzle lyrics

[Chorus: L.V., La Tee] Life in the hood, (life in the hood) Life in the hood, (yeah, just like a puzzle) Life in the hood, (life in, life in the hood) Life in the hood, is just like a puzzle The good die young [Verse 1: Dresta] It's like a jungle, sometimes when you rhyme The hood took you under n***as start to wonder, why you missing all these summers I ain't seen the streets in like 5 or 6 weeks Cause I'm back on the cell block Looking like I'm shell shocked In and out, down south, up north I'm back back, forth and forth I can't seem to keep my black a** out of dough Cause I'm steady doing dirt, put in work for the turf I did a gang of k**ing, and still ain't learnt a damn thing Except how to gang bang Talk slang and shoot game And now I think I'm the mack of the century Cause I got this b**h running through the penitentiary But never knowing she was hoeing in the hood, black Til the day my homies say: "Dre that b**h a hoodrat" But shoot the package on some nights and I'm alright Just another piece of the puzzle of my f**ed up life [Chorus: L.V., La Tee] Life in the hood is just like a puzzle (like a puzzle) If in the game, your looking for trouble (looking for trouble) [Verse 2: BG Knocc Out] My life is like a puzzle I thank god for everyday I'm seeing Living in the world cause I'm bout European Being, a young black male is like having on Some gasoline underwear bailing through hell Cause we have no win that we can all see Ask Rodney King, Michael J and Mike T And what about O.J., I think it's a set-up Pac you said it first but my n***a keep your head up They don't wanna see another black man make it And everything we get that look nice, they wanna take it So make it, 187 on the police I'm tired of seeing n******gs get stressed And f**ed with no grease No peace, no justice, motherf** this Live BG's doing dirt out of cutless The three strikes march, it didn't help the situation All it did was increase the jail population [Chorus: L.V., La Tee] [Break: L.V.] Life in the hood is just like a puzzle Life in the hood is just like a puzzle [Verse 3: Dresta] My homies is a piece to my puzzle I love they a** to d**h But the more I look around, there ain't too many of us left Survival of the fittest, and the strong don't survive I can count more real n***as dead than alive So n***as stop the talking, let that bullsh** keep walking I'm trying to get mine, so quit wasting my time And if I had a dime for every time I met a b**h That I thought was the sh**, my a** would be rich But no, I'm broke, and b**hes ain't a joke n***a you better check yo b**h, talking sh** Will get that ho smoked, (I'm down with you baby) b**h, don't even make a n***a start Trying to get inside my heart So she can tear my life apart I already got enough strain on my brain Than to be busy worried about some busy a** dame But game, recognize game with the Dresta Fool, I thought you knew about the west side gangsta [Chorus: L.V., La Tee]
