Squat made the beat

Shit you gotta die for a nigga, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
00:09
Look, yellow gold VV's, saw her with the BB's
00:13
Growin' up, used to wanna be a dope boy, all these dope fiends
00:16
Bein' broke, knew that wasn't the life for me, knew it wasn't for me
00:19
I start kickin' doors, got tired sellin' weed, stop sellin' these dreams
00:23
Oh, yellow-gold VV's, saw 'em with the BB
00:27
Growin' up, used to wanna be a dope boy, all these dope fiends
00:30
Bein' broke, knew that wasn't the life for me, 745
00:34
Aw, huh, bein' broke, knew that wasn't the life for me
00:36
Look, I had to sell dope and rob, I ain't have no job
00:41
I was so impatient, somewhat taken, I knew that time was hard
00:45
I just want you to pray for me, baby, I just beat the odds
00:48

01:02
Man, you know you don't eat, you gon' starve,
01:04
What you not a believer, dog? How you shit on your people, dog?
01:06
Better to go hit a lick or somethin', what you scared 'bout a bitch for
01:09
We used to bust down .36, now I gotta bust down
01:12

Growin' up, used to wanna be a dope boy, all these dope fiends
01:26
Bein' broke, knew that wasn't the life for me, knew it wasn't for me
