Luyện nghe bài hát I Must Stand

Nobody said life was gon' be easy
But

a kid, moms died when I was seven
Pops died, eleven, what's up with
hell when you're an orphan at a early age
This impressionable stage, no breeds rage

In the heart of a child who never his roots
Looked up to pimps and to hustlers in the boots
Parkin' Caddies on the sidewalk, gangsta
Truckin' diamonds and
around the bankrolls

Fly girls to make head spin
they partied all night long
I was like, "Put me on"
But said, "Little fellow, run and go play
Take your butt to school or else you'll have to be us one day"

I didn't understand, but I to get a job
While all the players got the girls 'cause hustle and rob
I was makin' 'bout 1-50 a week
And after taxes, you know what is lunch meat

And I know I can be better than
I get me a car, man
I gotta get a
I I can do it out there, man
I'm go for it, man
I get some money

Streets of anger, and crime
I had it hard, had to in my car sometime
But I let another player see me down
I my front up, my gear clean
Even when checkin' minor

knew my game was true
So I hooked up with the real
knew exactly what to do
Bank and jewels, quick to flex with tools

hoes on the block
Checkin' cash non
Crack spots, armor with bars
No lie, I used to own 15 cars

Every piece Fila
my women in suede
Pavet Piaget, Palace holidays
It was on, crazy out of
We made up the word 'ballin'', that was how we
But the FBI had a whole idea
called multiple indictments for hundreds of years

Daff is
Carter got 25
Nah
35 to life?
Nah, tell me B.O.'s dead, man
I don't hear that, man
I was just him

The game is vicious, no retirement, you die
to a fake, he might tell you to grab a gun
I get phone calls condemned row
Brothers I ran with, I really know

They tell me, "Ice you got love in the pen
You're the one got away, don't wanna see you in"
They tell me, "Tell the little the deal
Don't let 'em come up in hellish habitat of shanks and steel

I two million strong in D.C.
Lookin' eye to eye with brothers that I used to below me
Damn, my mind was twisted in my days
But God spared me, I got a baby son to

And bein' black ain't easy, is real
But health and liberty is all we need for us to
We gotta come together,
Check yourself like I did, blackman, we're all related
