No more
Drama feat. Lloyd Willie The Kid & T.I. Lyrics

Summertime in apartment 409,
The summertime in apartment 409 was a memorable period of my life.

Had to clean up the kitchen with 409,
I had to clean the kitchen with 409 because I had been busy working on something there.

It Was cookin' up work, while my granny at work
I was busy working while my granny was also out for work.

My big cause he ain't understand me at first,
My big cause didn't get me at first.

He said, the court room or the casket,
My big cause warned me that I could end up either in jail or dead, if I continued down the wrong road.

I'm like dude, either way you need cash and a nice suit,
I responded to him by saying that in both cases you would need money and a nice suit.

The street lights where I found my strength
The street lights were where I found my strength.

Be with four rich men, and you bound to be the fifth
If you are with four rich people, you are likely to become the fifth.

Let's go
Let's move on.

I lost my daddy at an early age,
I lost my dad when I was young.

Told my mama don't cry for me,
I told my mother not to cry for me.

If I trade tomorrow in for yesterday, oh how much different my life would be,
If I could change the past, my life would have been so different today.

But that's in my dreams, back to reality,
But that is just in my dreams; I have to face reality.

Tryna get outta these street lights, so I won't have to live this street life,
I am trying to escape the streetlights so that I don't have to live this dangerous life.

No more, no more
I want no more of this life.

Just gotta learn to deal with problems,
I need to learn how to deal with my problems.

If you're young and from slum with no father,
If you are young and from the slums with no father, you face greater challenges.

Got killed when you was little, still got mama,
If your father died when you were young, you are left with only your mother.

She try to tell him go to school, but why bother
She tried to persuade him to go to school, but there was no point.

When gettin' paid is the only way to solve 'em
When getting paid is your only solution.

Seems the stars get farther and farther
Seems like my dreams are getting ever more distant.

Out of my reach, out of these streets,
Out of reach because I am still stuck in these streets.

Will they ever make it big
Will I ever be successful?

I ain't ashamed to say that I shed a tear
I am not afraid to admit that I cried.

Thinkin bout my dad I wish I had him back,
I miss my dad and wish he were still with me.

I'd give up everything just to have him here,
I would give up everything to have him with me.

After this storm and rain I have no fear,
After everything I have been through, I am no longer afraid.

Gotta keep holdin on, hold my head up strong,
I have to keep holding on, keep my head up and stay strong.

I know it won't be long until we'll be together again, foreal
I know that someday we will be reunited for real.

I'm livin' for the moment
I am living for the present.

If I could turn back the days
If I could go back in time.

Sure, you could turn this back
Yes, you could change the past.

Hey, I was born with the hustle, never been a sucker
I was born to hustle and have never been one to be taken advantage of.

Daddy wasn't in the crib, dat made me tougher
My dad wasn't there, which made me stronger.

Momma struggled with the bills, dat made me stuff up
My mom struggled to pay the bills, which made me grow up too fast.

Powder in a sack, which made me dumber
Dealing powder made me less intelligent.

Now I'm standin' on the corner, bag full of Marijuana, Crack
Now I am standing on the corner with a bag full of drugs.

Pistol my pocket for anybody who disrespect
I carry a gun in my pocket to protect myself from those who disrespect me.

In the trap chillin' where robbers and killers, kick it at
Hanging out in the trap where thieves and killers are.

My arms up in the feds for ten, they say I'm goin' in
I am facing a ten-year sentence and they say I will go to prison.

Ha, bet dat I'm a stretch that, backish to this rappers
I laugh at that; I refuse to go to prison; I am better than these rappers.

Show these niggas what I'm best at
Show these guys what I am really good at.

Get a lil' check, flip it and invest that
Invest what little money you have and try to make a profit.

Years later, oh now you see what my heads at
Years later, you can now see where my mindset was.

Like meals chasers, we be everywhere the bread at
Like money chasers, we will go wherever the money is.

You keep on hatin', you'll be layin' where the dead at
If you keep on hating, you will wind up dead.

You rappers suckers, you can tell them that I said that
You rappers are lame and you can tell them that I said that.

If nothin' else but the hustle, you gon respect that
If nothing else, you will respect my hustle.

Guess, this is my life
This is my life, I guess.

And I wanna live it right
I want to live my life in the right way.

I don't wanna run the streets no more, no
I don't want to be out on the streets anymore.

I don't wanna run the streets no more, no
I don't want to be out on the streets anymore.
