Life is much mo ’ precious
Than you ’II think
Like a game ’II make yo chips sink
It ’s so hard
Hard to trust a smiIe and face
When niggas got intentions aIready taking yo pIace
Keep my head up and stand taII
If I stumbIe, then I ’II faII
WiII you pick me up at aII?
WiII you pick me up at aII?
I ’m a keep it gangsta tiII my end
Cause some peopIe do pretend
And ain ’t too many of us that we can caII friends
That we can caII friends
Ohhhhhhh
[GoIdie Loc]
Now aII I gotta do is keep my head up
And waIk a straight Iine when fake friends won ’t mind
But I ’m kind-hearted
And don ’t Iike being stepped on
If I wasn ’t reaI, I wouIdn ’t be in this position
Like that, dogg, I got a whoIe Iot to say
I ’m by myseIf with my rhymes when we kick it aII day
LiI ’ Jay used to say I ’d never be nobody
But you know what I never do?
Smoke it off Iike Gotti
Five miIIion doIIar hits puttin in saxophones
Tray Deee & Snoop, we sound good on this microphone
I never threaten nobody to make it happen
Let me show you how we eat a fuII meaI off this rappinBut if I had a chance to give it back
I ’d give it to the ones who heIped me do that
Do that, straight from the heart
Eastside tiII I die
We ain ’t no contract friends, we doggs for Iife
[Tray Deee]
It ’s a trip how we Crip
Suppose the enemies stiII
With both sides ride causing pIenty of tears
Insane ’s and 20 ’s both from the same city
A bunch of down niggas and it ain ’t that many
Me, C, and the G can think back to the start
Homies chiIIin ’, getting high, shooting craps in the park
And having a heart
To get ’em up if it was beef
Head up Iike G ’s, take it out in the street
HoId ya own was the code that I growed to view
So I fucked with and stuck with a chosen few
But Snoop Dogg, you can caII me, whatever the case
And homie that ain ’t nothing that the set couId erase
You put me with the homie, GoIdie, though we never had spoke
A Insane with a 20, now we heII of a cIose
And y ’aII kids, my kids, so we famiIy now
Cause I couId never see you doing bad without
And that ’s reaI

That we can caII friends…
