Fatboy Shaw Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know we all gotta die but I ain't ready
I get tired of wearing this crown man this bitch heavy
Know I'm try and keep it on keep my pace steady
Niggaz laying everyday gotta stay ready
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty
Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy
Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy

(Polo get em')

I remember I was always in some shit
My momma told me life is short it's somethin like a skit
I keep my head up through the worst to make it out of it
Gutta baby from da jungle he will never quit
Where I'm from my OG's told me keep it moderate
Ain't no switching , ain't no faking, zero tolerance
I keep a tooly by my side I think its obvious
I'm by lonely, I ain't never need no audience
Ye I know we gotta die but I ain't ready
I had too slow down my pace gotta keep steady
I be looking for the bag gotta get da fetti
Ain't nobody show me love when I was in da chevy
(I was in da chevy)

I know we all gotta die but I ain't ready
I get tired of wearing this crown man this bitch heavy
Know I'm try and keep it on keep my pace steady
Niggaz laying everyday gotta stay ready
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty
Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy
Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy

I gave u my last and you never knew it
How u showed me your ass it had me goin through it
Tried to tell you I love you n you told me prove it
Know I'm just talking to you this ain't no fuckin music
But where were you?
Where were you when they ain't let me bathe
Locked down for three days in a cage them crackers playing games
I hope you niggaz momma die I heard you saying names
My nigga it's ok to cry just don't say no names
My nigga you can do the time just get in your mind
These crackers can take your time
But can't break your mind
Look deep inside and what you'll find is
Life's your biggest puzzle
They took his life and he was poor he died begging to struggle

I know we all gotta die but I ain't ready
I get tired of wearing this crown man this bitch heavy
Know I'm try and keep it on keep my pace steady
Niggaz laying everyday gotta stay ready
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty
Where I'm from I'll probably die over something petty




Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy
Know I'm gon keep it on but the shit heavy
