Lyrics
and try not to go to the grave like the rest went
It s best to go the right route and not the wrong one, what good is that
Stay off the corners that might be your best plan, they had dreams but gave em up cause they street struck
or relaxin on a hospital bed
what good is that
In nine-five, like the crack be callin pookie
Cause where i m from, you never know when you gonna get wet Street, i started rappin and got nice as hell
they d rather sell drugs
but with the cash profit make an investment
Actin stupid, comin at you once again, stay off the corners that might be your best plan
They d rather sell drugs, all they care about is a buck or bustin a sweet nut
i started rappin and got nice as hell
They d rather sell drugs, or behind bars
i m in the crib
I try to leave the streets alone, or end up with a deep cut
Gettin lifted, it ain t a dumb joke
before the rap contract
They d rather hang with male thugs, listen to this young folk
if that s what you gotta do to maintain
but with the cash profit make an investment
But with the cash profit make an investment, they life is twisted Big, big l you betta listen when l rhyme cause bein street struck ll
I m outta here, or relaxin on a hospital bed, and i gotta say rest in peace to all the cats teasin streets
So pay attention when l rhyme cause bein street struck ll, you never know when you gonna get wet, and try not to go to the grave like the rest went
Like the crack be callin pookie, youknowhati msayin
And bust gats and run the streets actin violent, in nine-five
Now they corrupt, youknowhati msayin, comin at you once again
Big l you betta listen when l rhyme cause bein street struck ll, in nine-five
Like the crack be callin pookie, i ve seen a lot of my peers give up they careers for some fast money
Cause you can be rich with crazy loot, they could ve been boxers Big, writin rhymes to some dope beats
if that s what you gotta do to maintain
to them it s all about hittin skinz and makin some easy green
And try not to go to the grave like the rest went, they life is twisted, to all my peoples from uptown
They could ve been boxers, i started rappin and got nice as hell Street, stay off them corners you ll stay out of trouble
And try not to go to the grave like the rest went, there s a lot of peer pressure growin up as a young teen, cause you can be rich with crazy loot
They d rather hang with male thugs, the big l cause i been through it all, i still chill with my peeps in the streets but most of the time
You never know when you gonna get wet, like the crack be callin pookie Street, actin stupid
instead they bank robbers and crack slingers
they had dreams but gave em up cause they street struck
instead of goin to school
and i gotta say rest in peace to all the cats teasin streets
