Lyrics

Yo, Big Mann, what's happening?
Just out here chillin', dawg
Shit, ****, what you chillin', what you thinking about?
****, I'm out here reminiscing, looking around, ****
Reminiscing on what?
'Bout how shit done changed, dawg
All these **** dead we grew up with, bro, baby Daniel
Damn, bro, this shit daily, constantly happening
So what, we next or what?
****, we tryin' to come up and raise them little ones
Well, let's find a way out this shit
Well, let's do that there
**** that want to space age hustle, catch that rocket to the fucking moon
That be yo' final ship, ****, 'cause yo' ass is doomed
Ain't no comin' back, living in the dope game
'Cause once you die, ****, you slanging rocks, then that's yo' name
On the wall when they run up
I got killers coming through with bubble ups to pick up double ups
And put him in that motherfucking long black hearse
I mean, once you gone, ****, you laying in the dirty
Ain't no love in New Orleans
All the way to Richmond, California, **** living for ghetto dreams
And the ghetto get so crazy
I seen a little bitty baby sucking on daisies
Caught two to the chest, one to the head
Five **** walked behind him, dressed in red
With ski masks, but **** thought it was a clown show
Witches in the St. Bernard projects, downed a hoe
And it's sad 'cause **** claiming third Ward
Nineth Ward and **** claiming Tenth Ward
All my homies be dying Down South
Run around, talkin' shit, killers with gold in they mouth
But I'm a soldier, a roller, give me ten
I'd rather die than go to the fuckin' pen
My partner Bos looked to my eyes and said, "****
Is it time for change, **** ain't living in this dope game"
So we jumped into this rap game
And laid it down to all my killers that tried to teach my **** the game
'Cause once you gone, ain't no comin' back
Talked to Randall and T-Dove, they say, "P, the streets ain't all that
I mean the Calliope projects done change
Right from Roges Tablet you find the fucking police man
And **** still serving bubble ups
Big Mo in the projects rapping, and **** tryin' to come up
And with this new wave dope game
I mean this rap game, **** tryin' to get out to make some change
But Down South my homies dying, **** frying
But stories we ain't buying
2Pac gone, but what rapper gon' be next
I hope it ain't me who get cashed like a bad check
(Slammin' Cadillac doors), who gon' be next?
(Black hearses when they should be 6-0's), to take the final ride
Who gon' be next to take that final ride
Get cashed like a bad check
(Slammin' Cadillac doors), who gon' be next?
(Black hearses when they should be 6-0's), to take the final ride
I often wonder (wonder?) If there's a heaven or a hell
Rest in peace to my **** that died
Too bad when they died, they couldn't come back and tell
If they really is another side (another side?), I seen his mother cry
I just wanna know where he went when my cousin died
That last step, then it's yo' debt, yo' last breath
Then it's the moment you fear (just think, by the day over)
One of us ain't gone be here
Used to ride with a bunch of ****, now he's riding solo
He's dressed up in a suit, when he used to wear Polos
I wonder if there's a heaven for a gangster, a killer, and a shooter
I wish some **** gunned John Gotti had went in the chamber (oh, shit)
Moms say my days are numbered 'cause I live wrong
Even Scarface made a song, gangsters really don't live long
I'm trying to live to a rock candy painted Cadillac like Outkast say
Ride on them thangs like Mack 10, from back side to side like U.G.K
Convertible Lexus like Eightball, MJG
500 like my brother Master P, I'm a shock the world (you still alive) if I see 23
Maybe not today, but tomorrow off into the funeral parlor
Take pause to bury my boy, as we roll up to the graveyard
Who gon' be next to take that final ride
Who gon' be next to take that final ride
Get cashed like a bad check
(Slammin' Cadillac doors), who gon' be next?
(Black hearses when they should be 6-0's), to take the final ride
I done seen mo' crime than a crime lord (I kill it)
Sometimes I sit back and think I seen more death than God
Just last week a **** got shot up and burned
But me I take heed to shit like that, and I learned (why?)
How can I not end up like that ****? (Oh, yeah)
What the fuck I got to do not to get banged up by that trigger?
'Cause in the projects, ain't no love (no love)
**** will split yo' wig 'cause they gone on drugs (heroin)
I hope you feel me, 'cause I feel the pain of others
I feel for every **** that got to go on without they brother
But like the game, what goes around, comes around
Next week, that could be your motherfucking hearse riding through that town
That could be yo' mama crying in that steeple
Better yet, that could be you morning the death of yo' people
In the hood, I'm known for peeling caps, so I'm a cap peeler
The police know me for selling drugs, so I'm a drug dealer
I reverse the game cause ain't no love for a black man
13 years old, my little cousin got juvenile life for takin' a stand
It's a never ending game of death, do or die
So if you kill, be prepared for that final ride
Who gon' be next to take that final ride
Get cashed like a bad check
(Slammin' Cadillac doors), who gon' be next?
(Black hearses when they should be 6-0's), to take the final ride
Who gon' be next to take that final ride
Get cashed like a bad check
(Slammin' Cadillac doors), who gon' be next?
(Black hearses when they should be 6-0's), to take the final ride
R.I.P. 2Pac, ****, Eazy-E, Segram, Mr. C
And my little brother Kevin Miller
And all y'all TRU **** and bitches that done died out there on these streets
And took that final ride, uh
Y'all **** ain't forgotten 'cause TRU **** live forever
TRU **** like us
Ya heard me? It's real, ****
We gon' see y'all fools in the crossroads
