Lyrics

I was standing on my own
Before they grew up
And no one really ever taught me
I just knew stuff
Had a couple OG's
But they ain't raise me
Who would have thought
That one day I'd go crazy
I was paid thinking dollars signs
Could never really manage it
Mom would get her taxes back
Then next week it was cans again
Christmas always seem to run late
And that was fine with me
At 21 I moved to LA
Like Dre was signing me
Transferred my job
Thought I was moving to the city
Alamitos there and Anaheim
Where crips were getting busy
With my neighbors getting busy
It's adapt or die daily
Then I visit back east
Course the west coast changed me
Yeah
The next man ain't with all the stressing
The next man ain't playing all the games
The next man is working on the best man
The next man won't ever be the same
The next man ain't with all the stressing
The next man ain't playing all the games
The next man is working on the best man
The next man won't ever be the same
Yeah
I was standing on my own
Before they grew up
And no one really ever taught me
I just knew stuff
I fucked enough women
Who never told they man
To see her true intentions
From how she move on the gram
Don't date no fans
Don't date no hoes
Unless you built like that
Don't show too much
Cause too much love
Will get you killed like that
They say
Pussy and drugs
Will always get in the way
So aim at the money
And keep the family safe
I learned
From 1300 all the way to South Central
If you got something going
They got a reason to get you
If you never caught a body
You should still prepare to catch one
Cause even if you really ain't no killer
Bet you met some
City of angels
Don't let it turn you to an angel
Just prepare for the danger
Don't let it stop you
You adapt or die daily
When I visit back east
Of course the west coast changed me
Yeah
The next man ain't with all the stressing
The next man ain't playing all the games
The next man is working on the best man
The next man won't ever be the same
The next man ain't with all the stressing
The next man ain't playing all the games
The next man is working on the best man
The next man won't ever be the same
