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
