Lloyd Banks - Rather Be Me lyrics

[Intro:] The Unit... Yeeaaaah... There's a lotta things in this world you can be... But I hate to be you n***a... You're not true... [Verse 1:] Uh... All it is is murders and burglars around my way Poverty society climbing up every day Honesty inside of me probably be what I say I stay here too long it'd probably come my way Fiends don't wanna go and get clean they want that yay Run up on my mansion you runnin' up on the K Tangueray mixed with that henny and Alize A hundred dollar bill though, petty, I'm 'bout my pay b**h n***az holla my name it's all hate Money bags and finger pointin' is all it takes One more step and your steppin' into your fate Wake up 'fore you can't wake up, you had your wake Ain't nobody better than Blue and what he do Fifty put me here, who I'm supposed to listen to These n***az is scared of The Unit I'm livin' proof You ain't gotta like me or love me, I love you [Chorus:] If you ever lived a life of a G Or seen half of the things that my eyes seen You be just like me... Then you be just like me n***a... If you ever lost something you loved To a knife, a slug, or white drug You be just like me... Then you be just like me n***a... But if I had a heart of a fool Which gives you the audacity to turn on your crew I be just like you... Then I be just like you n***a... If nuttin' outta my mouth was true And I ain't have a clue and a cowards point of view I be just like you... And I don't wanna be you n***a... I rather be me... [Verse 2:] New York City is sh**ty but all I know There ain't no way to shake it it follows me where I go Find someone that doesn't acknowledge me for the flow I can make another believer outta them yo S-Five automobile that four do' Boy it's jus' me and my toy, that fo' fo' Rims pokin' outta my wheels as I peel Ain't no use in givin' him grills you know the deal Open up a can of whoop a** then hit the dash Stick around and watch you take a loss as I laugh Back on my grizzly who is he to come my way Homie must be dizzy cause he can get done today Beef is like a frizbee so throw it it's ok, stay Low cause it can come back around any day, play Games at your own risk cause I won't risk it all Put my life in jeopardy just to ball... [Chorus:] If you ever lived a life of a G Or seen half of the things that my eyes seen You be just like me... Then you be just like me n***a... If you ever lost something you loved To a knife, a slug, or white drug You be just like me... Then you be just like me n***a... But if I had a heart of a fool Which gives you the audacity to turn on your crew I be just like you... Then I be just like you n***a... If nuttin' outta my mouth was true And I ain't have a clue and a cowards point of view I be just like you... And I don't wanna be you n***a... I rather be me... [Outro:] Some came some went... And this how I vent... G-Unit...
