From the cradle to the Life ain't never easy living in the ghetto From the cradle to the ain't never been easy
June 16, 1971, mama gave To a hell raisin' son See the tried to smack me But I him back
My first were "Thug for life" and "Papa the Mac" I'm bustin' on mothafuckas ballin' you can hear my mini 14 callin'
From out the of my drop top I got my glock Bustin' at niggas when will it Now me are you scared of the dark?
Can't my eyes I see visions And even with this thug livin', I escape prison ? chances was an all day thang The way to advance and if you slang
have your Nikes on 'cause when we fight It's in the middle of the night with no on Hey, there be a God 'cause I feel lucky out my mind, this mothafucka's tryin' to rush me
Am I to jail? Look at me bailin' Commin' out the house all about my mail and bank Never die, be a hustler and makin' thugs out you suckas From the to the grave
the cradle to the grave Life ain't never been easy, in the ghetto
From the to the grave, since a little bitty child been known to get ill and kinda buck wild Pop, pop, just like the part that's in my walk with talk Go runnin' up the block in the with less spark
Surveillance on a nigga day Waitin' on my daddy to take his ass away Now Mama always workin', to make ends meet So now a niggas bein' raised by the streets
And then the only one that ever showed me love Was my dope fiend strung out on drugs A straight thug, just me, my out here on our own So I got two gatts, one and one of chrome
Now I don't wanna hurt nobody but I must mine It's all the fuck I got, so and walk a thin line niggas be brave and keep on thuggin' From the cradle to the grave, the cradle to the grave
the cradle to the grave Life ain't been easy, living in the ghetto
From the to the grave, I'm glad to say I it this far, many G's died hard They know that got was their here up on a wall sad thinkin' about the times
Life goes on, I'm steady lost in this As the war zone I got no Don't have no friends It's just me by my lonely so I my Nina
I keeps her wherever I go, I my ho leave home with out my sugar I'm hafta a nigga Mama told me not to trust no
And his ass if he lay a hand on me then I been known Sometimes I my own self stupid 'Cause I shootin' at marks Get twisted up in reports
Since the cradle, I've ungrateful My toy was a gun I got sprung and to love weapons
But now I'm through with And with street fame Somebody my cap And put me in my
the cradle to the grave Life ain't never easy, living in the ghetto From the to the grave Life ain't never been easy, in the ghetto
18th, that rainy day, my mama gave birth To a boy, trapped in hell on earth From day one it fun I never had a crumb Daddy worked two and Mama won't stop drinkin' rum
I to cope loc but my family's broke And my pocket's so now I gotta sling dope In a filled with pain, it's a fuckin' shame The white man got a mothafucka cane
So now on from dusk to dawn I get my serve on Always in the spot my glock slingin' rocks at the rocks The shit don't stop I'm steady dodgin' I never flip flop, hear my glock cock thug till I
And if I hit the pen I do my time Sittin' on my bunk about the good times fucked up a nigga gotta grow up doing dirt But from the cradle to the I'ma put in work
the cradle to the grave Life never been easy, living in the ghetto From the cradle to the ain't never been easy, living in the ghetto
Time's movin' fast, will I last day? So I pray and I lay my A-K Did I sell my soul as a young All the things I did someone held me But never did
I can't take it, will I make it to my older Before I'm shot up or up in a fuckin' cage Lord, me, guide me, save me 'Cause that's the way that raised me crazy
Do or die, nigga, pull the trigger don't give a You'd rather be in jail than get your ass Nobody cares, it's me the world Keepin' murder on my and my Tech-9
I got nothin' to lose, payin' dues, nigga you wanna I get high my mission is a walk-by You'd better jet when I hit your set I'm commin' runnin', yellin', "Evil mind", as I'm gunnin'
One in the chamber for the that I build inside For the mothers that cried, for my that died The is an ending, am I just a slave So I got to be brave the cradle to the grave
the cradle to the grave Life never been easy, living in the ghetto From the cradle to the Life ain't never been easy, in the ghetto
