8Ball Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is my life
All my pills, all pimps and all my real bitches in the vicinity
Just a coming through your speakers
I'm big, but I still squeeze in a two seat
With the roof off but, but I rather ride big
You with the seat back like I'm chilling at the crib
I'm so wrong cause I hustle hard and never go home
I'm in tune, I got soul, so I vibe with the room
With the brokest mother fuckers and the riches tycoons
Where the Hennessy? I need to pour myself a double shot
And I smoke and hid the cigarette already in the box
Make movies when I ride it, to see it when I say it
At the club I almost and my DJ afraid to play it
I'm so dope, I've been told, I'm so cold when I float
I got gold on my teeth, six on the top row
I've been called many things, from a legend to a king
But I'm just another with a dollar and a drink!
Ain't no definition for a nigga like he
If he gotta keep it playing, I'mma always be a G
(It's how we ride)
And these niggas steady watch it
(From the side)
(Oh! This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Just that space says life long get it till I'm gone home
Live life to the foolish, put it on I every song
Out of good, out of bad, when I'm happy, when I'm mad
All my fucked up ways, might have got them from my dad
I ain't sure all I know, I'mma keep it ten toes
In the dirt, when it hurt, when it don't make it work
Competition I ain't see it, cause to me it don't exist
Man, I was getting money back when niggas pop
West Coast on the summer with my bitch
Top back in the sun, on the pill
My advice is just don't be worry about them suckers
My heart won't let me quit, I guess I got that from my momma!
Ain't no definition for a nigga like he
If he gotta keep it playing, I'mma always be a G
(It's how we ride)
And these niggas steady watch it
(From the side)
(Oh! This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Just that back again, like you got that pack again
Smoking on some Afghan, getting my Cadillac and Benz
Like I owe them, even though I just grew up
I don't know a lot of people stuff and all I wish is the best for 'em
Hold me down, it's your boy, one and only Real McCoy
Really was on my way out, start to give you a little more!
Dope rap, shout it up, smoke it up, pour it up
Girls they like to fuck a lot
Get out there, hold it up!
Judging you is not for me, I rather be your best friend
Talk to me and maybe we can connect before the world ends
Space is just a song, might be a long time
Before another comet like this fly by
Ain't no definition for a nigga like he
If he gotta keep it playing, I'mma always be a G
(It's how we ride)
And these niggas steady watch it
(From the side)
(Oh! This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)
Keep it ghetto, keep it, play it, I'mma always be a G
(This is my life!)

Hey, what it do, what it do?
Greetings, what's going on?
This is my life
I'm living the way I want
All my pills, all pimps and all my real bitches in the vicinity
Everyone I know is here and we're all having fun
Just a coming through your speakers
My music is being played loud and clear
I'm big, but I still squeeze in a two seat
I'm successful, but I can still be humble
With the roof off but, but I rather ride big
I can have fun with the little things, but I prefer luxury
You with the seat back like I'm chilling at the crib
You're relaxed like you're at home
Front row, in love with making money I'm so gone!
I'm so focused on making money that I'm not paying attention to anything else
I'm so wrong cause I hustle hard and never go home
I'm always grinding and never taking a break
I'm in tune, I got soul, so I vibe with the room
I understand the energy of the people around me
With the brokest mother fuckers and the riches tycoons
I can hang out with anyone, regardless of their financial status
Where the Hennessy? I need to pour myself a double shot
I want a drink to help me relax
And I smoke and hid the cigarette already in the box
I have a cigarette hidden away for later
Make movies when I ride it, to see it when I say it
I'm living life to the fullest and sharing it with others
At the club I almost and my DJ afraid to play it
My music is so good that the DJ is nervous to play it
I'm so dope, I've been told, I'm so cold when I float
I'm talented and confident
I got gold on my teeth, six on the top row
I have a flashy, expensive smile
I've been called many things, from a legend to a king
People have different opinions of me, but I just see myself as successful
But I'm just another with a dollar and a drink!
I'm just like anyone else, working hard and enjoying myself
Ain't no definition for a nigga like he
I'm unique and can't be put in a box
If he gotta keep it playing, I'mma always be a G
I'll always stay true to myself
(It's how we ride)
This is how we live
And these niggas steady watch it
People are always watching me
(From the side)
From afar
(Oh! This is my life!)
I'm proud of my life and what I've accomplished
Just that space says life long get it till I'm gone home
I plan on working hard for the rest of my life
Live life to the foolish, put it on I every song
I live my life to the fullest and share my experiences in my music
Out of good, out of bad, when I'm happy, when I'm mad
I express myself in my music, regardless of my emotions
All my fucked up ways, might have got them from my dad
Maybe my negative qualities come from my father
I ain't sure all I know, I'mma keep it ten toes
I'm not entirely sure, but I'll always stay grounded and true to myself
In the dirt, when it hurt, when it don't make it work
I'll work hard no matter the circumstances
Competition I ain't see it, cause to me it don't exist
I don't see other rappers as competition, I just focus on my own success
Man, I was getting money back when niggas pop
I've been making money for a long time
West Coast on the summer with my bitch
I take luxurious vacations with my significant other
Top back in the sun, on the pill
I drive around with the top down while enjoying life
My advice is just don't be worry about them suckers
My advice is to not let others bring you down
My heart won't let me quit, I guess I got that from my momma!
I'm determined to succeed and I get that trait from my mother
Just that back again, like you got that pack again
I'm back again with new music like I have a new pack of cigarettes
Smoking on some Afghan, getting my Cadillac and Benz
I'm enjoying life with luxury cars and good weed
Like I owe them, even though I just grew up
I feel loyal to my friends and family, even though I've achieved success
I don't know a lot of people stuff and all I wish is the best for 'em
I don't know everything about everyone, but I hope they succeed
Hold me down, it's your boy, one and only Real McCoy
Support me, I'm the real deal
Really was on my way out, start to give you a little more!
I thought I was done with music, but I have more to share
Dope rap, shout it up, smoke it up, pour it up
I create great music and enjoy life
Girls they like to fuck a lot
Girls enjoy sex
Get out there, hold it up!
Get out there and enjoy life
Judging you is not for me, I rather be your best friend
I don't judge people, I'd rather befriend them
Talk to me and maybe we can connect before the world ends
Let's talk and get to know each other before it's too late
Space is just a song, might be a long time
This moment is fleeting, enjoy it while it lasts
Before another comet like this fly by
Before another opportunity like this comes around
