Now I've seen places and faces

the other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money

and when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny

Cuz, now you done lost the hustler

and though I got love for ya

I know I can't trust ya
G A
coz my crew is rollin' Hummers and your crew is rollin' dustas
D A
and just because of that you act like you don't like the brother no more

I'm just tryin to take care of my kids and handle my business
D A
coz it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention

so you don't get caught sittin' when they come and do all the gettin'
G D
life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart
G A
someone's gotta run a little faster cuz we gotta later start
D A
I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
Bm F#m
and if everybody's a sinner then everybody could ba a winner
G D
no matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers
G A
and regardless of the times somebody up there still love us
D A
I'm a scuffle and struggle till I'm breathless and weak
Bm F#m
I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak

I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin'

for your own sake give a little
G

D
you busy tryina stack
G A
and keep up with the Jones's taking advantage of your own
D A
the realest homies that you've been knowing for the longest
Bm F#m
but some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone
G D
could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us
G
we prefer to keep our eyes shut to whats right when
A
theres something of all that we desire
D A
so hold your head up high if your poor and righteous
Bm
I know time seems right
F#m
and the problems seem endless
G D
but at times of despair we gotta pull ourselves together
G A
and if you feel you're out the game then you need to get back in it
D
coz nothing worse than a quitter
A Bm F#m
you gotta face responsibility one day, my brother
G D
so gather up your pitty and turn it to ambition
G A
and put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side
[Refrão] (repetir)

As we walk down the road of our destiny
Bm F#m
and the time comes to choose what shall it be
G D
the wide and crooked, or the straight and narrow
G A
we got one voice to give and one life to live
D A
stand up for something or lie down in your game
Bm F#m
listen to the song that we sing
G D
it's up to you to make it big

I guess I'll see you when you see me
