Smif-n-wessun - Game of Life (feat. F.L.O.W.) lyrics

Yeah, after Dah Shinin, it all became clear to me I knew things would be different son I knew it'd come time for a change Seems like the time is now Jah! Rastafarai Greetings to my soldiers and soldierettes Jewel on the world, make the earth sink On the brink of divinity, defying gravity Reachin' for infinity Can he be incarcerated by the limits Stuck, they can't function Caught up in the scrimage This game called life only lasts minutes Once you in it, be in it to win it to the finish As the sun heats, I put my feet to the concrete Hard to sleep so I take it to the streets Hold my head up, try to keep it movin' Fed up with losin' I need some air I think I take a cruise with you I'm using, what little know how I posess To keep our familia down to rest Now I stress defensive tactics 'Cause police seem active Got me in the crib sleepin' with heat under the mattress In case of home intrusion: First the dogs go "bark" Then about five sparks bringin' light to the dark Like ? does his movement when he's dealin' with math Or the boss tell his workers where he's keepin' the stash When that gun blast, better have Jah on your side Or an act of devine intervention from the most high I know guys that get a thrill from the k** And other n***as, who hold the greed to sling ?frills? Chorus Demon's tryin' to take my soul away But they won't get my soul today Will I get locked up or blown away? Just stayin' strong is a price to pay (Repeat) Damn I haven't worked since I was 'bout 17 They had time busy hangin' out being a drama fiend I had to run the streets, see what the night brought out Sneak in the crib Hear my moms prayin' to God that I sprout Take all responsibilities like a man would do 'Cause she know that the streets can bring the worst out of you She told me concentrate on school but what I do about loot? I wanna push the fat ride, have b**hes sweatin' me too But you know you need dough so you can do the do And going to cla** everyday don't bring in no loot Plus I just been told that I was cold by club bouncers Standing there hot headed 'bout to set it while they denounce us Crab n***as still beggin' for CD's While brothaz' careers is stuck on halt and freeze About to face extinction ?pockets dead is thinkin'? Something ain't peace and suicide's part of my thinkin' Even God don't hear my prayer or him just not care Got a son in this world, stressed out losin' my hair Chorus It's time to take the struggle to the pavement Let the people know the mayor sent the OK for enslavement Orders from the government Official stubborn men with egos runnin' sh** They put the hit out on whoever try to get out And they are the directors who are dead and ? Even down south in Atlanta Police play the pawn for their master It's a disaster, practicing who can k** us faster For less than nothin' like they did Bobby Huton Corruption got me clutchin' my rifle for gun bustin' Somethin's cookin' Look at the way some faces be lookin' Cross the bank rock on to Brooklyn, Texas Even in Houston P's be shootin' us like sitting ducks in groups And I can't trust who or what That will explain the way I watch you, plus I know the chosen are few Many come around to proclaim things they know not Let alone maintain Shame, some of my worst enemies Live right around me and look just like me I see that its time to intensify the movements in front of my eyes Can't rely on a seeing dog they got me Or lay and wait for the devil to surprise me, nah G Chorus (twice) It only takes a line to make the mind think Drop a j**el on the world make the earth sink I'm on the brink of divinity, defying gravity Reaching for infinity Plenty be incarcerated by the limits Stuck they can't function caught up in the scrimage This game called life only lasts minutes Once you in it, be in it to win it 'till the finish (repeat)
