They need drugs, drugs, oh, to ease their mind They need to find, find, someone to call for dimes And mama said, You can't be a thug, Cause you'll have to move weight She said, the money will come easy, And it's a game you can't escape You can't be a thug, Cause you'll have to move weight She said, the money will come easy, And it's a game you can't escape I took advice on my life from my mama, but when she said, don't be a thug in the spotlight It causes drama, and you'll go through a lot of trauma I should've heeded the words she gibed, constantly repeated to work My nerves, but instead I chose to serve, so I guess I'll get what I deserve In the long run, but for now, I'll observe the fun Move weight by the tons, post guards at the gates with guns Take the funds of those who needed to waste a young life Going the wrong route, getting high as a kite and strung out Only to see them a week later in holes that have been dug out You can't blame me for where your children hung out They needed family, and all they got was absentees You should've been there for your seeds, now they've grown into weeds And my only plan was to make a couple of grand before the man catches me You can't be a thug, Cause you'll have to move weight She said, the money will come easy, And it's a game you can't escape How long must I wait How much more can I take Before they take my son from me And cause my heart, heart to break I've seen bad things, slangin' the fiends, and now I want out the drug ring But like mama said, it ain't as easy as it seems Too much green falls in your stream You ball with teams that made so much, few could only dream But there's so much bad luck surrounding the cream And now I'm stuck in the middle of this seam Where do I go from here I just wanna disappear and obtain a new career But I ain't worked in years, and it appears Ain't nobody hiring ex-racketeers I must stay clear in my sphere Stay strong to persevere through the wrongs I was warned by moms to move along But decided to make my own decisions I had my own visions They ended up to be a head-on collision We should all pay attention to our mother's discretions Before we end up in apprehension and sent to federal detention Now drugs, drugs don't come easy But they keep on waiting, anticipating They got no choice but to come to me at night Still I hear mama's voice telling me that ain't right You can't be a thug, Cause you'll have to move weight She said, the money will come easy, And it's a game you can't escape How long must I wait How much more can I take Before they take my son from me And cause my heart, heart to break Dear mama, I never meant to cause you no harm It would've been best if you just guided my arms Growing up in life, you was always my lucky charm Sounded off when things were wrong, like an implanted alarm And I just took you for granted Cast your words aside, and now I'm stranded Knowing I should've confided in your cries of guidance And I chanced a lot in search of plots with easy finance By a life of violence, I don't mean to cause a silence By my belief in love for being a thug in the streets It's just that it's made me the big chief with mad cheese At ease, I'm in too deep and can't leave You can't be a thug, Cause you'll have to move weight She said, the money will come easy, And it's a game you can't escape How long must I wait How much more can I take Before they take my son from me And cause my heart, heart to break You can't be a thug No no you can't Oh, oh, you, you Oh, you, you, you Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh
