Look at my life style itand's dangerous
when i was young this sorta life was contagious
hustlinand' hard like them sharks down in vegas
my gat and i come bust spontaneous
this world made us to take only what they gave us
the game is our loss
watch yo gloat
then show you that this world aint yours
push crack like swinginand' doors
and leave strips wide open
jaand's holdin
a pair a nines and yaand'll cats foldinand'
my life ainand't been all that goldinand'
this ryme hit me at a young age and kept callinand'
i know iand'm fallinand'
to the evil of money and drugs and lost woman
but thats what iand'm lovinand' about livinand'
beinand' i see my birth as a givinand'
knowinand' my inner limits
this game aint no scrimmage
lets play big weand're winners
beg the lord for forgiveness
for when i die please take me off your shit list
cause iand'll be nameless
puttinand' them through changes
the j to the a
niggas know the flows crazy
[chorus]
what makes a nigga what he is?
and how do we get from where we at to where we be?
itand's evident whoand's out for the dead president
and why so many close to my heart had to die
were we goinand' in life figure
thereand's no start no end
but when in doubt you could count on your nigga
what makes a nigga what he is?
and how do we get from where we at to where we be?

where we goinand' in life figure

i got a lust for this money
admire them old timers
assume with no conscience
made a world so chaotic
opened up my mind and introduced me to narcotics
brand new wips not this thicks the hottest chicks
i just canand't seem to keep them off my dicks
the difference is yaand'll did yaand'll thing on the low
made alot of doe
we did our thing high pro
thou we still blew
i wish i knew dirty money was evil
i never understood until i lost a few people
dead and gone still their memory lives on
throw a mural up let them niggas them was loved
now were in to better things
got our hands on every ring
crime in the streets
cause itand's my time
i draw the line between love and war really
nigga you with me
your flossin, out side that you fear me
literally strait up and down with no cross
as god is my witness and ja is yours
iand'm a spit in your directions
hit the floors, nigga
