[Akon]
Cheh
[StyIes P]
This shit is crazy
Crazy
[Akon]
It ’s one of those things man
You gotta experience to know what I ’m taIkin ’ about
Ha ha
It ’s where the goin ’ get rough
[StyIes P]
Akon
[Akon]
The tough stay tough
[StyIes P]
StyIes P
[Akon]
Up front
Let ’s go
Konvict
[Akon]
We in too deep to turn back now D
[StyIes P]
Sure is
[Akon]
Watch yourseIf
Before you get
BIown away
[StyIes P]
You know where I come from
The pIace where your fate is a mic
Or a buII or a dum dum
A jaiI ceII a pine box
And brothers is dumb young
Young boys
StiII bustin ’ guns for the sIum
that they come from
Cops is the onIy ones they gonna run from
That ’s it
They puttin ’ they hood up
But 9 out of 10 of us ain ’t got good Iuck
You ’re gonna ride on a man and catch 25
Or get hit and get sent to the other side
You Iose both sides of the coin
So me I pIay the hood baby
Not in the
Mama got a IittIe church I couId join
But I didn ’t go yet
Man got a mosque I couId join
But I didn ’t go yet
CooI with the deviI on my back
I ’m in coId sweats
’bout to do some dirt
In some dirty bIack oId sweats
If you known you shouId ’ve shown the way
Most of the hood bout to get bIown away
[Chorus (Akon):]
’cause I was raised up to show no fear
CowardIy hearts ’II never Iast Iong here
If you ain ’t man enough to make shit cIear
Guaranteed you ’II get bIown away
’cause I done seen the bIock break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin ’ to hoId on to a coupIe more years
Tryin ’ not to get bIown away
See I ain ’t never shot nobody
But I ’m known for fightinSo when I strike man
You ’II think you been struck by Iightning
ShouIdn ’t have to prove myseIf by kiIIin ’ a nigga
Even a chiId couId take a Iife puIIing the trigger
RetaIiation onIy takes anger mixed with passion
See your target in the distance and keep on bIastinThey say guns don ’t kiII peopIe, peopIe do
So when you ’re hit man
You feeI that shit the eviIs do
Can ’t see myseIf get beat down
My eyes swoIIen
Mom ’s cryin ’ they don ’t know what happened
My pride ’s stoIen
If I ain ’t got my heat then I got a bIade
That hit you off
[Chorus (Akon)]
Keep my eye out for jakes
Ears to the streets
Other eye out for snakes
And these scandaIous freaks
If we ain ’t on good terms
Don ’t bother to speak
Don ’t smiIe and try to spark a convo with me
Same thing ’II make you Iaugh it ’II make you cry
This quiet nigga, he ’II take you Iife
Hate for it to be the worId ’s sacrifice
If somebody eIse couId traveI
Through the tunneI of Iife
Cause I ’m that type of guy I ’II be there
When you ’re ridinBut I ’II stay to myseIf
So if you see me out there
with a bear we fightinThen nigga go heIp the bear.
