(verse 1) My life has been like gun blast night Stop the car, down with a flashlight "where's the gun? where's the " The drive-by last week they try to pin, no hope Wishin' I wasn't the victim, yet the suspect Waitin to run a check "what set you from? side of town? Nigga like you be ready to get down" Hold up now, cause I to speak my mind I question the place of the ride and time "speak your mind one time, you're through" found a bullet that I stashed in my shoe Fuck, now they tear up the car Try to lock me in a cell that's as as a jar But that's the way it's goin' down, the gang told Tomorrow might be the episode
Chorus...
Once upon a n' the ghetto you're through Once upon a time n' the ghetto I'm you Once upon a n' the ghetto you're stuck In the you're fucked Ah - press luck I said...
(verse 2) Y'all can follow me, see how gangstas Real killas the strap and don't talk Set trip, at night, we stalk Yellow tape, bodies outlined in the I keeps my close Last night seen a straight turn to ghost My position is to through round-the-clock Keeps on the one times down the block You the click with the bang-bang, then you stop Try to run, but the burn makes you drop My and criminals through hard time I for y'all niggas, pop goes my nine I do the crime, the point is Look around the clockwork, it ain't to find Any block, ward or burrough, you know I speak Your clients all cross the street if yo' is weak
Chorus...
(verse 3) Y'all fools come up short on the work and try to us niggas, cold-ass world, catch the heaters Burn you niggas, you can't beat us Another life lost, you never defeat us Gun smoke's the I predict down, never that, nickel slick Try to cheat a for dollars, "holla holla" Is the sound that you make for cuttin' off the Fake niggas, I hate yo' face, Seal your fate, no on the triggers Ditches for the I dump I dig bigger Puttin mo' to ya than dirk diggler Static cling, bust straps, you ears Funeral day, the sad songs to shoulda known by now it's mines Step now or charriots swing
Chorus...
