Cause you're a mother f**er I put my life on the line everyday, every night for any homie of mine Whys that? Cause you're a mother f**er I put my life on the line everyday, every night for any homie of mine Let me tell you why [Mr. Shadow] When I was broke and didn't have a f**ing dime You looked our for a homie not wasting time A lot of fake mother f**ers play a role of a friend But inside they just pose trying to see your end I spend hours thinking about this life of ours And how it's full of nothing but conniving a** cowards (huh) I put my life on the line for any homie of mine Any day, any place at any given time Sunrise to son down all year round Till the day I hit the ground I'm down for ya I'm letting all my dogs know, I'm there for ya In California were we get a grind on stay strong We ain't stupid we play along (Ha-ha) There ain't nothing in this world I wouldn't do for ya I'll tell you why (why's that) cause you my motherf**er [Chorus] I put my life on the line everyday, every night for any homie of mine Why's that? Cause you're a mother f**er I put my life on the line everyday, every night for any homie of mine Let me tell you why (Why's that?) Cause you're a Mother f**er [Mr. Shadow] If somebody got drama (what) Tell em to bring it on And let them silly sons of b**hes know you ain't alone You got your shadow right behind you & don't forget that Mutha f** anybody who don't respect that They can hate all they want We'll get em up with any punk f** wherever they form sh** Chump change can make a hatters act strange Jealousy is for b**hes it'll never change I got your back and you got mine I'm down to ride on any trick trying to get out of line No doubt, I'ma let my mutha f**ers know There's nobody like us and that's fo sho So Cal we all in the mix now Getting pay for every eight f** ah freestyle In the mean while I'ma lay back with the sack And get my puff on for all my mutha f**ers [Chorus] Yeah we had hard times we did crime together Always told each other sh** can only get better And now it's better With ever-single move we make Every step that we take is a trip to the bank I thank the lord up above for blessing my life With some real mother f**ers two kids and a wife Its like good things come to those that wait So don't lose your patients don't lose your fate Take your time do it right no need to rush I want more than a little bit and more than enough Me and my dogs do things till the wheels fall off All you pity mother f**ers rather run your jaw (we came to ball) f** what'chu talking about, Silly b**hes stay dumb with a dick in they mouth Right now I'ma take another hit for ya And you should already know that you's a motherf**er [Chorus]
