Luyện nghe bài hát You Gotta Be...

I used to be a kid

in the Ghetto tell me
Is it a lie that I must be a
And wear a frown just to be
I don't agree with bein' but you gotta be
(Tough, rough)

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

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

The next new member of the crew, 'cause 8 of them and 1 of me
I don't wanna do it, but I
'Cause I still folks to think that I'm hard and tough

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

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

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

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

I had to be
(Rough)
'Cause you be
(Tough)
'Cause you be
(Rough)
(I to be a stick-up kid)

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

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

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

So, why you be
(Rough)
'Cause you be
(Tough)
'Cause you be
(Rough)
(I used to be a kid)
