| Now I’ve seen places and faces
|
| And things you ain’t never thought about thinking
|
| If you ain’t peeped then you must be drinking and smoking
|
| Pretending that you’re loc’ing but you’re broken
|
| Let me get you open
|
| Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
|
| And Tamikra around the corner
|
| Just took her first hit off the pipe
|
| The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money
|
| And when the other homies heard about it
|
| They thought that it was funny
|
| But who’s the dummy? |
| 'Cause, now you done lost the hustler
|
| A down-ass brother done been replaced by a buster
|
| And though I got love for ya, I know I can’t trust ya
|
| 'Cause my crew is rolling homers
|
| And your crew is rolling dusters
|
| And just because of that
|
| You act like you don’t like the brother no more
|
| I guess that’s just the way it goes
|
| I ain’t trying to preach, I believe I can reach
|
| But your mind ain’t prepared, I’ll c u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| More temptation than faith, I guess we living for the day
|
| I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an AK
|
| The situation so twisted, everybody getting lifted
|
| I’m just trying to take care of my kids and handle my business
|
| 'Cause it way too serious, so you gotta pay close attention
|
| So you don’t get caught sitting
|
| When they come and do all the getting
|
| Life is a big game, so you gotta play it with a big heart
|
| Some of us gotta run a little faster
|
| 'Cause we gotta lay the struggle
|
| I’d be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
|
| If everybody’s a sinner then everybody can be a winner
|
| No matter your rag color, deep down, we all brothers
|
| And regardless of the time, somebody up there still love us
|
| I’ma scuffle and struggle until I’m breathless and weak
|
| I done strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
|
| Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something
|
| I’ll be there when you get there with muted sounds bumping
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| You need to loosen up and live a little
|
| And if you got kids, let them know how you feeling
|
| For your own sake give a little
|
| Oh, you don’t want to hear that, you busy tryina stack
|
| And keep up with the Joneses, taking advantage of your own
|
| The realest homies that you’ve been knowing for the longest
|
| But some ain’t missing a good thing until it’s gone
|
| Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us
|
| We prefer to keep our eyes shut 'til it’s right
|
| When there’s something involved that we desire
|
| So hold your head up high if you’re poor and righteous
|
| I know times seem strife and problems seem endless
|
| But at the times of despair we gotta put ourselves together
|
| And if you feel you’re out of the game
|
| Then you need to get back in it
|
| 'Cause nothing worse than a quitter
|
| You gotta face responsibility one day, my brother
|
| So wrap up your pity and turn it to ambition
|
| And put your vehicle in 'Drive' and stop by my side
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| As we walk down the road of our destiny
|
| And the time comes to choose which shall it be
|
| The wide and crooked or the straight and narrow
|
| We got one voice to give and one life to live
|
| Stand up for something or lie down in your game
|
| Listen to the song that we sing
|
| It’s up to you to make it big
|
| I guess, I’ll c u when u see me
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there
|
| I’ll c u when u get there
|
| If you ever get there
|
| C u when u get there |
