Take it for what it's worth, my birth was a blessing Sent to live and die, on earth as a lesson We each have a star, all we have to do is find it Once you do, everyone who sees it will be blinded (what?) They'll tell you that you're bright, and say you have a future When you turn your back, same cats'll try to shoot ya Niggas ain't shit, I can live on both sides of the fence Forget what you do, when you talk, see what you really meant (aight?) That's what I thought, them niggas was bluffin (uh) They talk all day but say, nothin (uh) It gets so dark (what?) the pain's so intense Since this first rain it's like it's rained ever since (what?) Never got paid for a rhyme but I flow (whoo) Never got a plate on time but I grow (whoo) Live your life, stay on the line but I go (uh) Went from doin crime to bein kind cause I know I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie What is about who I am that makes me unforgettable (hmm) What it is about what I've done that makes it so incredible (uh) "more money, more problems" well the fame was worse (uh-huh) I reached out for love and what came back was thirst (what?) Blessed with the curse (uh) niggas don't hear me Niggas don't hear me, y'all niggaz, don't hear me (uh) What'd I just say? "niggas don't hear you!" see that? You gots to feel me to catch what I'm sayin, believe that (uh!) But leave that, alone (what?) We gon' make a nigga wanna be at, your home (what?) Oh you kinda quiet with the heat at, your dome (uh!) If the dog got he's gonna bring back a bone Cause we got the chrome (c'mon!) This is what I live for, or die for I'm the nigga with the high score, you try for What you niggas wanna lie for? it changes nothin I'm true for cats, yet some strangers bluffin I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie Now if I take what he gave me and I, use it right (uh-huh) In other words if I listen and, use the light (uh-huh) Then what I say will remain here, after I'm gone Still here, on the strength of a song, I live on (hmm) No second-guessin on what I stood for, I was good for Stoppin niggas from killin each other in the hood war (uh) Comin through showin love, throwin up (uh) Them cats not throwin love, you know whassup (what?) Dark man baby, that's my name And I gots to be the realest nigga (uh) up in this game Cause ain't no shame, they don't make em like, this no more Real to the core, big heart but built for war I stand for what I believe in Even if what I believe in stops me from breathin Relatives grievin, but I ain't went nowhere Listen to the song (c'mon) I'm right there I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie I'm gon' live forever, I'm never gon' die Only thing I fear is that I'm never gon' fly Carry my weight but I'm never gon' cry Shit I tell y'all niggas straight cause I'm never gon' lie
