in my eyes i done seen some crazy thangs in the streets
gotta couple hoes workin on the changes for me
but i gotta keep my game tight like kobe* on game night
like takin from a ho don't know no better, i know that ain't right
done seen people killed, done seen people deal
done seen people live in poverty with no meals
it's fucked up where i live, but that's just how it is
it might be new to you, but it's been like this for years
it's blood sweat and tears when it come down to this shit
i'm tryin to get rich 'fore i leave up out this bitch
i'm tryin to have thangs but it's hard fo' a pimp
but i'm prayin and i'm hopin to god i don't slip, yeah

man it seems like i'm duckin dodgin bullets everyday
niggaz hatin on me cause i got, hoes on the tray
but i gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water
couldn't keep up with my hoes, that's when shit got harder
north memphis where i'm from, i'm 7th street bound
where niggaz all the time end up lost and never found
man these girls think we prove thangs, leave a big head
they come hopin every night, they don't end up bein dead
wait i got a snow bunny, and a black girl too
you pay the right price and they'll both do you
that's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimpin
gotta have my hustle tight, makin change off these women, yeah.
