I Want It
Akon feat. Oxmo Puccino Lyrics

Don't nobody wanna live right no more
People don't want to live honestly anymore

Everybody wanna live wrong
Everyone wants to do the wrong things

And they wanna give up
They also want to give up on the right path

Don't really wanna fight no more
No one wants to struggle anymore

Shit's been going on way too long
The wrong things have been happening for too long

But if you take a look at this
However, if you really look at this situation

And listen to it
And really listen to what I'm saying

I guarantee that you'll know
I promise you'll understand

Homie I got yo back
I've got your back, my friend

I'm not gon' leave you out to dry
I won't abandon you

I will take you off the street
I'll help you get off the streets

And I'm gon' show you everything you can without it
And I'll teach you all that you can accomplish without doing wrong

If I got then you got it (And we got it)
If I have something, you have it too

If I ain't got it we gon' get it
If I don't have it, we'll work to get it

If I eat ain't nobody around me ever gon' starve
If I have food, no one around me will go hungry

24/7, No days off, a nigga work hard
I work hard all the time without taking breaks

I know my niggas
I know my friends well

My niggas know me
And they know me well too

On everything I love 'cause I struggle real hard
I swear on everything I love because I've struggled a lot

Just to feed these streets
I struggled to provide for the streets

A real live nigga, so real
I'm a real person

You can ask Big Meech ('Bout me)
You can ask Big Meech about me

You can ask T Money (T Money)
You can ask T Money too

You can ask South West T (Fo real)
You can ask South West T for real

Ain't got a whole lot of time
I don't have a lot of time

But I got a whole lot of money
But I have a lot of money

Whole lot of homies, a lot more love to give
I have a lot of friends and a lot more love to give

You see a hungry man is an angry man
A person who is hungry can become angry

It could be hunger for some knowledge, hunger for the truth
This hunger could be for knowledge or truth

So I gotta keep my hustle on, so I can get it
Therefore, I have to keep working hard to get it

And I acquire the knowledge and I pass it on to you
I'll gain the knowledge and pass it on to you

One man down, to another everything go
We help each other out

One by one, the whole world will know
Gradually, the whole world will know

But it's funny how sometimes the world will make you want to give up
It's ironic how the world can make you feel hopeless

So I tell you now one melody
So I'll give you one tune

If I tell you truth make it one melody
I'll make one tune that tells you the truth

So feel free, feel free
So feel free to listen and be yourself

We got it
We have it
