If you're trying to raise up out the gutter, can I ride?
But if you like living in it,
my nigga, I'ma slide
I wish I could take you with me,
but you don't want no grip
See, you can take a whore to the water,
but you can't make them sip
That's why I be chillin' by myself, smokin',
sippin' by myself, by myself
Hustlin', hopin' I can
make a million by myself
I don't think I'm better than nobody else
Just don't do no hangin',
cause I don't know nobody else
Like I know myself,
most of these niggas, they be crabs
Puttin' your back in the bucket,
cause when you're ballin'
They help you lose it
and leave you busted
Not to zero,
cause I made them get gone
Y 'all niggas ain't talkin'
about no paper,
get the fuck on
Stop comin' to our hood,
nigga, tryna kill us
Tryna raise up out the ghetto,
nigga, roll with us
Best to keep us cool
in the mood of the good
Before your unusual life
Everybody, let me hear you say
you love your life
I love my life
I don't wanna die tonight
I'mma live right
Together we stand, together we fall
Together let's make
it and live through it, oh
If you're tryna raise up out the ghetto,
roll with me
But if you're not making positive moves,
roll on by
If you're tryna bring our
people together,
let's roll
Homie, but if you keep poisonin'
and I'm cheerin',
you gon' die
If you're trying to raise a fight,
then get a roll with me
But if you're not making positive moves,
roll on by
If you're trying to bring our
people together,
let's roll, homie
But if you get poisoned and not cheering,
you gon' die
You can hate me now, but lately
I've been wondering why you envy me
Why to the O -U -N -G,
gonna be in infinity, hollering,
who's with me?
I can fit three more in the back,
but if you ain't down like four flats
Then you recognize your own shots,
rollin' by with a deuce,
not straight to the sky
Gotta realize we on the rise, like, yeah,
so please squeeze into the right lane
Cause we comin' and runnin' harder
than something that we might
Swing, better get out of sight,
man, unless you're light
But if you on the same plane,
trying to live and maintain
Then you can roll with me and Ro,
but no, you better be holding on
Cause we ain't going slow,
we moving in fast forward
Call me an asshole,
but I'm just telling you how it is
I got your back and you got mine,
and we're shine
And be family until the end
Stop coming to our hood,
nig ga, trying to kill us
Trying to wake up out the ghetto,
nigga, roll with us
You got to keep us cool,
in the mood of the good
Before you lose your life
Everybody let me hear you say
you love your life
I don't want to die tonight
in my new vibe
Together we stand, together we form
Together let's make it alive through it all
If you try 'na pray,
you're bout' to get a roll with me
But if you're not mak
ing positive moves,
roll on by
If you trying' bring our
people together,
let's roll, homie
But if you be poison and not cheering,
you gon' die
You trying' to pray,
you're bout' to get a roll with me
But if you're not mak
ing positive moves,
roll on by
You trying' to bring our people together,
let's roll, homie
But if you be poison and not cheering,
you gon' die
I'm dry now, don't need no more wet,
no more Sherman Sherman
be sending niggas to Ben -Tor,
Ben -Herman
It's they first time
and the sky's on the light flight
Us niggas be wondering
why we can't live our life right
It ain't gon' hurt you to go to service
on Sunday and hear the word
He created me,
the least I can do is let him be heard
Instead of killing each other,
we need to be lokin' up
Cause if we ain't together,
Armageddon, they'll be smokin' us
No love for the other side,
but I still got love and pride
But my people tryin' to get it,
they ain't strivin'
Strugglin' ain't just tryin'
to hustle back
Steppin' on no toes with haters,
we ride or blockin'
So we run them off the road
Stop comin' to our hood,
nigga, tryin' to kill us
Tryin' to raise up out the ghetto,
nigga, roll with us
Best to keep us cool
in the mood of the good
Before you lose your life
Everybody let me hear you say
you love your life
I love my life
I don't wanna die tonight
I'ma live my life
Together we stand, together we fall
Together let's make it and live through it all
If you're trying to raise up out the ghetto,
roll with me
But if you're not making positive moves,
roll on by
If you're trying to bring
our people together,
let's roll, homie
But if you be poison and not cheering,
you gon' die
If you're trying to raise up out the ghetto,
roll with me
But if you're not making positive moves,
roll on by
If you're trying to bring
our people together,
let's roll, homie
But if you be poison and not cheering,
you gon' die
You
