J Dilla - Wave lyrics

Niccas Trapn' and Rapping These cops ain't paying booking fees And niccas with degrees Taking pleas on they second degree Niccas out robin got student loans To payback for college niccas in the hood Got more degrees than diplomas And the crooked government in debt With more money to loan ya And we just trying to get paid f** what you think My life like having a black belt with out a sensei Misguided youth Taught misslead truth T.v. and a couch Call it the electric chair Niccas trying imitate Entertainment And a nicca a join a gang Cause he come from a broken home And his best friend got Shot the dome by the enemy Raise by the same corrupted System that shot kennedy Niccas in the hood sick Overdosing trying to find the remedy Chours x4 Don't Know Why We Living Like This Sometimes you win sometime you loose In this game of life you got to pay your dues No matter what direction you take its Going to be a struggle and if success mets ya path You go to stay humble Got to prioritize your priority Weigh out ya options A couple obstacle a keep you aloof balk But you said every thing come easy With a challange Ghetto grave yards Filled with wasted talent Niccas feel like lebron Got carry the heat Ain't no championships Off in these streets And niccas skipping school Got mo js in line Then the jordan brand Trying to be the man In the dope game Caught they first Drug felony so they can't get no sally mae Destined for a minimum wage salary But thats how it is when you trying To get it how you live n***a Chorus x4 Don't Know Why We Living Like This
