[Verse 1:]
|
Word got around that a nigga got shot
|
Heard a nigga drew down' and he bucked so his ass it got popped
|
We was on my block trying to move these rocks
|
Trying to stack this cash on the low, gotta duck these cops
|
We was right out there' chilling in the back of the track
|
Niggas got packs, trying to ditch them racks
|
X5 I was riding in the back with the brother's' round kicking in the gat in my lap
|
17 had no dreams, drinking four loco's riding codeine
|
First class I was so lean, then fu*khigh-school, so I left green.
|
|
[Hook:]
|
No one told me life would be this way!
|
I swear nobody told me
|
Guess this is the game we chose to play
|
Crazy how it's always been the same!
|
People dying every day, that ain't nothing new
|
When you from downtown, downtown!
|
I'm just trying to make a way,
|
I won't let these niggas take me downtown, downtown!
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Phone just ringing heard a nigga got got
|
He was ' on the East last thing that he heard six shots
|
He ain't getting no love from the cops, nobody got caught
|
Real talk when I heard who it was, heart damn near stopped
|
Somebody done killed my brother, now I gotta get back
|
Let 'em know cause a nigga gotta feel that!
|
Sitting shotgun with the shot gun
|
When you hear the shots come, nigga don't run!
|
Already bad, it can only get worse
|
Hand full of steel cause the shit still hurts
|
Cut so deep when they put him in the hearse
|
Never saw 25, had to put him in the dirt.
|
|
[Hook:]
|
No one told me life would be this way!
|
I swear nobody told me
|
Guess this is the game we chose to play

[Verse 3:]
|
Once upon a time down town in a nine
|
What it don't mind crime doing 2 2 stood 5, 5
|
Big money on his mind, clothes and riko while his hands on his eye.
|
Shots six times run in front of my mind
|
Kind of 32, man, I'm looking to survive
|
On a pac, juice real niggas don't die!
|
Bitch, I'm from A town, slang crack on the same side
|
Blood stains there from a homie with his head cracked
|
Home Gs like A' wacks they'll be doing this shit way back since A track.
|
And we get around, you can't get
|
You can get fame there from the way you're going to reign that
|
Truth from the head watch how you aim that
|
Price on your head and we gonna take that
|
It's about to go down, you ain't about this then you better go now
|
Sun going down, keep it going down!
|
Everybody law down ski mask down!
|
All you gonna see is my eyes and my frown
|
Last thing you hear is my gun going pow
|
It happens every day while I'm away
|
This ain't nothing new you grew up downtown.
|
|
[Hook:]
|
People dying every day, that ain't nothing new
|
When you from downtown, downtown!
|
I'm just trying to make a way,
|
I won't let these niggas take me downtown, downtown!
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
|
Riding on these niggas, I'll be riding, I'll be riding on 'em
