(1st Verse)
I don't think you understand, it comes by demand
Money Power Respect the definition of a man
Wit' my heater in my hand, I"ll do everything I can
To make sure my child's straight in the long run, damn
Do you get spooked when you see a cop car?
I've seen shit and kept a straight face, when most of you would have dropped jaws
Walking a tight rope, I gotta keep my balance
God don't pay my bills but he help me face the challenge
Take a highway chance, how many times you been pulled over?
How many times have you wrecked? Answer for yo' dipoloma
Burnin' on good weed, I look like I'm in a coma
But I, just got the low eye, like Mr. Stir & fry
If I should die before I wake, let my conscious free
Do I even have one? It's so easy bein' a G
It's hard being a good man in this evil world
An being a good man to evil girls
(Hook)
How It Be, when them feds on yo' ass
& That Swisha Full of Gas
And that package in the Bag
How It Be
When That B***h run her yap
And the feds run in yo' trap
confiscaring all yo' cash
How It Be
When you praying to the Lord
& you feel like you ignored but you end up gettin' more
How It Be (How It Be)
To keep it real with you's what they swore
And you kept it real with them but they left you at your worse
How It Be
2nd
People so self centered with immaterial wishes
It's wicked d*** suckin' & ****y lickin' can make you miss it,
What' it's all about, It ain't about stayin' in it's about gettin' out
Without a doubt
Crackheads raping little girls in my town
I frown, in a G mood, look back at the free food
That I got, now I'm out here grindin' for a Mcdouble
In trouble, let my boy kick it when he got, no where to go
Need a roof over yo' head? Bet
help me move this smoke,
Puff pass it ang go
Soldier at all costs
We know one another ain't no hoe
Past present future real friends are a present'
Are ya used to, real people holdin' you down
When you look like that stuff that's runnin' in the suer
Holy shit, go and get it,
Don't be sittin' on yo' ass like no bitch we all in it to win it... uh...
(Hook)
Right Now I'm kinda heavy hearted,
got court Monday and it's been 6 months since I seen my daughter, oh well
Cuz I been praying bout it a lot,
I pray the same thing Ever Time no matter what
Maximus in Gladiator, miss my loved ones dearly
One's that's in the sky, on earth far away or near me
Hear me clearly, Please don't steer me wrong
a King has to be a prince before he gets his throne.
Unless the King goes early
Which may happen Cuz this life ain't perty
Righteously it's very ugly
So I need a mink on my back
I'on need a shrink I relive my stresses through my raps
Stressin' but count my blessins, have jobs but also hustles
hands but also weapons, I'm tryna work towards perfection
at 18 had my first chance to vote for the president
To shed the light on why I wouldn't, I wasn't hesitant, Uh..
(Hook)
(Outro)
That's just how it be.. Shit get crazy out here man.. Just keep yo' head up..
