Streets
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
I know yo whole life you been a soldier
And if you get caught you'll never fold up
But you can do right i know you can show us
Even yo mama said its time for you to grow up
You don't wanna keep carrying this load on yo shoulders
In this game you keep thinking you got the controller
They gonna find you pull out what's inside of their holster
You only get one life then its over
I really think you need to face the facts
I know you love to watch the paper stack
But there's more to life than major racks
When them people come and get you and take all of yo money
You gonna wish that you could take it back
Why don't you take all that money you get
And try to do something wit it legit
So you ain't gotta keep ducking the pigs
It's just a matter a time until they find you
And then just another nigga who stuck in the pen
And that's just the prelude
Ain't no guarantee they'll free you
All that time you gone is lethal
Your kids won't get to see you
I know they don't treat us equal
but we know these streets is evil
In this life we don't get no redo
I'm just trying to save my people
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
Look i don't disagree with you at all family
Personally i done been trough it all man
But you cant tell a hustler to get up out these streets
When what he made today he won't get paid in a week
Ain't no turning back when a nigga waist deep
Streets fed me when i ain't know how else to eat
Everything that i have came from the grind
It's a lose lose when you playing from behind
We ain't supposed to get rich that's the way it's designed
So don't mind me i just came to get mine
Can't say that i'm wrong just for wanting more
Only one can just me nigga is the lord
The bigger the risk then the bigger the reward
Might die by it but i'm living by the sword
What is life if i cant live it how i want
I ain't just another squirrel trying to get a nut
Ain't just trying to live i'm trying to live it up
Till i can transition then i can't give it up
I'm my own man i can make my own decisions
Mind made up i'm going to go out here and get it
Yeah of course the plans always to make it out
But until then i don't see a better route
Cant lie because i'm tired of the shit too
But i deal with it tell them where i'm trying to get to
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
Don't ruin your life change the way you move
Or best believe the penitentiary is coming soon
Ain't no future in these streets it's the truth
If you keep playing this game you gonna lose
