You're thugging and you love the streets
Hugging the block, selling rocks, getting major heat
And niggas hating, and you ain't stop to think about
Niggas running they mouth, niggas 'cessed you out
That's how it goes down
What happened to the days when we could hug a block
Flipping rocks and just get money
I remember when you and me used to ball
We had it all, and we took a fall
I came up in Coke land, better known as Oakland
Your weed could sell, are you smoking?
Eighteen with a big Mercedes
Selling dope in the mid-eighties
Homie talking 'bout I'm about to win
Now when you goin' let them all out the pen
You sold crack to hell and back
Whoever would have thought you could fail at that?
Being broke ain't never been cool
And it ain't no hope when you're failing in school
You might as well flip the sack
Roll out of town and take a trip with that
Or you could just hit the block
Staying on the corner, come and get the rocks
Being out on the streets as a young teen
Wasn't always a fun thing
You're thugging and you love the streets
Hugging the block, selling rocks, getting major heat
And niggas hating, and you ain't stop to think about
Niggas running they mouth, niggas snitched you out
That's how it goes down
What happened to the days when we could hug a block
Flipping rocks and just get money
I remember when you and me used to ball
We had it all, and we took a fall
That's how it goes down
Dope fiend still get high
While dope dealers barely get by
You better get your life right
You wanna live in the 'burbs with your white wife
Do your own thing, I know you want change
And I can't play you wrong man
I'm laced with that long game
It's just not a lot of choices man
You ain't planning to go to jail with the poison clan
So you could be another number in the system, stuck for years
Got a brother in the pen fucked up
All the stashes you know you kept
And everything that the police left
It's too late when you notice it
It's all gone, motherfuckers done stole yo' shit
You wanna kill them and you still do
But realize real killers get killed too
You're thugging and you love the streets
Hugging the block, selling rocks, getting major heat
And niggas hating, and you ain't stop to think about
Niggas running they mouth, niggas 'cessed you out
That's how it goes down
What happened to the days when we could hug a block
Flipping rocks and just get money
I remember when you and me used to ball
We had it all, and we took a fall
He's disappeared into thin air, he's nowhere
When the last time he been here, we don't care
'Cause he don't come around no more
Nigga live with his momma, down in brough
He's just trying to survive
I guess it's alright 'cause at least he's alive
'Cause nowadays a lil' kid might shoot you down
Life's wild in the town, young fools like to clown
He did the same thing, fall for the lies
Hold your head up high and swallowed the pride
Caught in a trap, but don't know what you in
Had a million, now you ain't got two cents
You can't say nothing, now what
I don't hear you talking all that loud stuff
If you live and you die by the game and you lose
At least you did spend your life trying to change
You're thugging and you love the streets
Hugging the block, selling rocks, getting major heat
And niggas hating, and you ain't stop to think about
Niggas running they mouth, niggas 'cessed you out
That's how it goes down
What happened to the days when we could hug a block
Flipping rocks and just get money
I remember when you and me used to ball
We had it all and we took a fall
That's how it goes down
That's how it goes down
That's how it goes down
That's how it goes down
I remember when we had it all
And I remember when we used to ball, we used to ball
I remember, don't you remember?
When we had it all, we used to ball
That's how it goes down
That's how it goes down
That's how it goes down
