Luyện nghe bài hát You Gotta Be...

I to be a stick-up kid

Everybody in the tell me
Is it a lie I must be a roughneck
And wear a just to be down?
I kinda don't with bein' but you gotta be
(Tough, rough)

It's you claimin' your hood or you're not a gee
about respect, I refuse to be the next guy
Fitted for a casket, with it or get blasted
I choose to gang bang, they give me a chrome-plated
Say, if you got any heart, go rob Mini-Mart, nigga

Now look what I did, damn I had to be the big man
They're at me shifty, better shut up 'fore I get slammed
Man, I'm not a thief, grief and I don't wanna act hard
But they said if I didn't do it, they was gonna gat, far as I could see
(I was be)

The next new of the crew, 'cause it's 8 of them and 1 of me
I wanna do it, but I will
'Cause I still folks to think that I'm hard and tough

'Cause you be
(Rough)
you gotta be
(Tough)
'Cause you be
(Rough)
(I used to be a kid)

Well, it's the Niggeroe again, right back in I left off
tryin' to make a decision, I might go to prison if I don't step off
But if I don't rob this store, then I'm not
If I'm gonna be considered as a gee and you be
(Rough)

Cuffs are temporary, are for life
So, I grab the deuce-deuce and go
I to prove in the Mini-Mart, don't nobody move
Start fillin' up the paper sack loot, or I might shoot
But things didn't go as planned, this man had his own gun

We're standin' toe to toe, eye to eye, so I why not
Pull the trigger? Put this on the ground
It'll show that I had poise, then my know I'm down
But I do it quick enough or he thought of it first
'Cause he blasted to the chest and now I'm yellin', "Nurse"
And holdin' on to life or at least tryin' to hold on in a jailward wearin'

I had to be
(Rough)
'Cause you be
(Tough)
'Cause you be
(Rough)
(I used to be a kid)

And everybody, everybody gotta be rough,
(I to be a stick-up kid)
And everybody, gotta be tough, y'all
(I to be a stick-up kid)

Well, the end of my tale, but before we know
Fools'll just forget what I and the story go
On and on, until you're up to no good and back up your hood
And still doin' you shouldn't
Niggeroe, come together, divided we fall

So, stall that shit, stand up quit standin' in handcuffs
Really when you got loot and you ain't gotta shoot
Damn man, is enough

So, why you be
(Rough)
'Cause you be
(Tough)
you gotta be
(Rough)
(I to be a stick-up kid)
