Lyrics

How many my true niggas actually get a second chance at life? At their dreams? Not many, huh? Peep game Started off as a street thug, just hanging and thugging '89 I went to jail for drugging and mugging Popping pleas ain't no motherfucking way for me Probation for 10 years don't mean you're free I know my true motherfucking niggas know how I feel This shit's real, I wish my brother wouldn't have got killed For me to realize the game was weak as shit Can't even trust the niggas that I used to hang with, huh But I remember what my brother told me I know a real bitch by the way she hold me I love my true niggas like I love money If you fuck with No Limit you'll never find nothing funny And I'll take it to the grave with me If you shoot first, bitch, you better make sure you hit me 'Cause I'm known for chopping keys on my mom's table I split 100 G's with my niggas Kane and Abel Fast money, fast bitches, what I live for Until I caught a fucking bullet in the back, bruh They thought I was dead, but I'm still in it I'm back to life, back on top, ain't no limit From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid Tattooed, Hennessy, and weed Grew up in the projects with killers and G's The Last Don is known for slanging and banging Thug niggas, 3rd Ward, Calliope where we hanging Ghetto soldiers, mercenary with rhymes And it's life or death, and it's your soul or mine Don't play no games, boy, just tryna get paid Hope I get rich before they dig my grave So many penitentiary chances, feds and demons So many homies in the ghetto with their soul left spinning In God we trust, ain't no man gonna hold me My best friend be my lady 'cause these fools are phony So take heed, I've been beyond and back I live my life through the law, my homies, they greedy, look back I said, uh From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid You couldn't tell me nothing, a little ghetto child running wild Chased tears through years made it hard to smile Met your homie dying, why you standing right there? See, yo, my reality is your worst nightmare And now I'm trapped in a whole fucking world of sin Kill or be killed, homie had to hide by the hands of his best friend You gotta know if you wanna live, there's rules to this shit You can't break 'em if you wanna be rich And when my homie died and didn't come back, I knew it was on Nigga stressed, die for less, got his name on a tombstone See, my prayers go out to homies who done walked that path I spray-paint your name on the wall and I sit back and laugh You gotta make decisions, make 'em all with precision Try to make moves and avoid prison I remember the first time I laughed at the penitentiary cell But when they told me spread left and cough, I knew it was real Now I was just out there tryna gain some stripes Spirit came to me one night, told me "Silkk, you gotta change your life" But it was all or nothing, could never settle for second Gotta make the whole world feel my presence I told my homie don't cry if I close my eyes But Silkk the Shocker, you too young to die From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid From the cradle to the grave Just some youngstas on the streets tryna get paid
