lyrics
Hook (Boney Man): Everyday we live our life..an we're just trying to make it to the next one. I'll give you the answer..if you ask me the question. You know it's gonna be alright..if you just keep on pressing. You know you're gonna be alright..if you just keep on pressing.
Verse 1: I done had three court cases, one arrest, with no lock ups. Was twenty years old, own spot, with no knock ups. Main ambition is to always have my gwop up. Seems like every other month another bill pops up. Young doing grown shit, sometimes I get home sick. As soon as I graduated had to hold my own dick. Never take advice from anyone who never owned shit. If you stay to yourself you're never with the wrong clique. It's a long way up but you can fall fast. Thought it was all fun and games 'til it all passed. I said I'm headed to the top and they all laughed. Now anybody that's in my way should haul ass. It's nothing to spit visions. Good dude, cool with the brothers that flip pigeons. I'd rather be offed than be stuck..in prison. That's why I always be in the cut..incisions.
Hook
Verse 2 (Boney Man): Everybody's on me like I'm holding the pearl. I'm so sick of my city I'm going to hurl. I've done messed up in the past now I'm owing the world. The judge tried to lock me down an so did my girl. Boney Man Manyana, tomorrow man. Don't ask me, I got nothing to borrow man. And I aint trying to be bothered with your sorrow fam. Still pull up with the kids in the caravan. I cook cocaine, and push good weed. Because..I know exactly what the hood need. And things aint exactly where they should be. But these niggaz be lying and could've fooled me. I wanna tell a story, where to begin to. Talk like Yota on ya ass, cause it's due. Trying to find a nigga, put him on the menu. But I cut through the bull shit, Ginsu.
Hook
Verse 3: I got a jet high sex drive. But save all that pay to play bull shit for the next guy. I used to be more immature and less wise. Then fell back to find me and invest pride. I'm out of my league, ahead of my time. And you can believe anything that I said in my rhymes. It's much harder to do right instead of a crime. But when life taught me a lesson I kept it in mind. Had my hoes and my niggaz, it was all great. But when shit got real I found out that they were all fake. Kept my circle small. Learned that the ones you keep close can hurt you the worst of all. Now I got trust issues, and you can't really get to my heart without a hearse involved. I stayed strong through it all so salute when you step. Now here I am, the truth in the flesh
