Hey nigga!
Wake up you gotta go to your grandfather funeral
Come on! Let's go!
Come on boy! Get your ass up!

Take the damn jewelry off! (i'm fine ma)
Just put it on the dresser don't give me no lip!


Hey yo!
I never claimed to be hard, tough no homo
Gangsta none of the above
Just a kid from 140th and Lennox Ave.
Harlem USA tryin to make his way in the world ya heard
know through the trials and tribulations that life brings
i lost some friends
incarcerated some are gone forever
you know you can't expect everything from everybody
so get up get out and get somethin
thats what i did

Before i had the hammer cocked a santana rock
little gerv grandpa jerry grandma dot (thats my fam)
uncle carl uncle ted uncle steve uncle bill
cousin steve cousin bill up on the hill now (wuddup ya'll)
my aunt normie i dont speak to my aunt dida
or my cousin bathsheba love my mother fredrika(wuddup ma)
neighbor frita daughter raven and neeka
down another doorbell was that nigga warnell
he gave birth to the best mc's you never heard
lever after lever and was clever with whatever word
derek armstead bloodshed from C.O.C
he did damage road manage by G.O.D
aka Gupta God he was stupid hard
sixteen a bitch dream had stupid cars
?? '68 hooptie '75 still drive some bullshit
i dont know why, i love the nigga though
for him put cris in the air first one diss him in here
i swear i'll risk my career
thats a fact thing aint talkin no rap shit
i'm talkin that mack clip
niggas will backflip act sick
my dudes study the savage
no beef veggie nigga maybe some catfish
he could have my house
he could take my mauries
he could drive my car
this ain't east side story
thats why my dudes love me i let them do them
you either gonna be rich or famous fuckin wit me
probably both
if you happen to brush shoulders with me by accident
play lotto, 9 out of 10 times you gon win nigga

Chorus: (Nicole Wray)
Play the game
Sure to win
They all up on me know they want my ends
I sacrifice
I roll the dice
I love my hood
I love my life (2X)

See a boss i prepared to be
When i walk away from a confrontation
i ain't scared of you i'm scared of me
I got a gun you don't, so if flares you'll see
After that a 5000 vault chair for me
So i move carefully, niggas don't care for me
who care i don't
you share i won't
calm down (uhh uhh) breathe again
i dont do extortion unless i'm on the receiving end
talk to my money
first time i heard her speak thats word to me
told me i deserve to eat
move to a killa ave right from a murder street
rock adidas forms even though they hurt my feet
i dont look in the sky nevermind stars
know some fine stars right behind bars
Snags, Black, Do on house arrest
Seep, Sheep won't even through out the rest
they wanted my ass right alongside Zeek
turn myself in nope play hide and go seek
i'm gone put the clip in the chrome
yeah i'm just like a fly see the shit that i'm on
and hour after hour i would chill at the after hours
where they flash the powder no bath or shower
in that same spot realized math is power
so i point at the mansion that is ours

Chorus

Can you feel me heal me yeah
