Uhh, man this life we live (Wooh)

West side baby, West side (Yeah)

Yo, I've been strong for a while but anyhow

I wonder how much stress God gon' lend me next (How much longer)

'Cause **** tryna have me out here lookin' petty now

All because they mad, they gon' be scraping pennies now

Fuck it, tell my little ma, bring the Remy out

Or the Henny out, but please don't feel me now

Aw shit, I forgot, she ain't with me now

It seems like they always leave at the right time

The ones who always seem to keep me from my right mind

I guess I got to write my problems down 'cause in my lifetime

Ain't no one in my eyesight that I can trust with my lifeline

A honest man walkin' this Earth is like Sci-Fi

The real truth is, this is where the crime lies

If you got beef with one dude, you got beef with five guys

Ain't no going through no drive-thru

But they gon' hit that drive-by, and bye, bye

One minute you got a friend till the end

Then they try to steal yo motherfuckin' ends (Man, this life we in)

First you all she need in this life of sin

Then she try to fuck your friends (Man, this life we live)

I been affected by both friends and kin

But fuck it, I guess we all sin (Man, this life we in)

So roll that weed and pour up your gin

And listen to how this story begins ('Bout this life we livin')

If you really not a gangsta, don't say that

'Cause real ass gangstas don't play that

There's a reason why the place that I stayed at

Had ghetto birds making they nests above where we laid at

A place that we remain slaves that

Got off the ships and then came back

I guess we want the chains back

'Cause it's easy to get your chain snatched

They want that, they take that

Real bad boys, take that, take that

This real life, you can't fake that

Either get into it with guys who been institutionalize

Or get into school and grind

And then find, you goin' to school to get fined

Or maybe you can get signed

Now everybody say that you they ****

But they only real interest is to get a loss percentage

Their album flopped and you finished

I guess what they mean is

If you got money, then it's a friendship

One minute you got a friend till the end

Then they try to steal yo motherfuckin' ends (Man, this life we in)

First you all she need in this life of sin

Then she try to fuck your friends (Man, this life we live)

I been affected by both friends and kin

But fuck it, I guess we all sin (Man, this life we in)

So roll that weed and pour up your gin

And listen to how this story begins ('Bout this life we livin')

I first learned **** wasn't nothin' as a youngin'

From someone I call my cousin, I was like eight or somethin'

Back when I was on my Pokemon card shit

I finally got this holographic Charizard, the cosmic

Cousin came through, I told him the news, but I lost it

Well at least, I thought this, we both looked for it

Checked the whole room, under the bed, the closet

Damn, still ain't got it, went back to the closet like five minutes later

And guess what popped in, that card was just not there, I'm so positive

(I know that)

This lil' **** took my shit to help me try to find it (No way)

Na, not him, na, never not kin

Shit, we wasn't really blood, but no, we not crips

I'm sayin' that we wasn't cousins

And now I guess we really aren't friends

This is where it all ends, this shit ain't right, god damn

One minute you got a friend till the end

Then they try to steal yo motherfuckin' ends (Man, this life we in)

First you all she need in this life of sin

Then she try to fuck your friends (Man, this life we live)

I been affected by both friends and kin (West side)

But fuck it, I guess we all sin (Man, this life we in)

So roll that weed and pour up your gin

And listen to how this story begins ('Bout this life we live)

This motherfuckin' life uhh, in this life we motherfuckin' live

(Watch your back, watch your front)

Ain't nobody wide-eyes tell him

Watch your back, watch your front, goddammit

**** must be stupid, crazy or both (Crazy or both)
