On The One
Messy Marv & Mitchy Slick Lyrics

(It's all I Know) chea
The only life I know is the hard life of violence and drugs.

Say give me that pistol my nigga
I need that gun for protection on the streets.

Mother fuckers always talking bout what
People always talk about what they would've done, but they don't know what it's really like out here.

They should of did
They say what they should've done in a situation, but in reality, they didn't do anything.

Or what they would of done in a situation
People always say what they would've done in a situation, but they don't understand how tough it is in real life.

(Fuck what they talking Bout)
I don't care about their opinions or what they have to say.

Look you don't know what the fuck
You have no idea what it's really like out here on the streets.

A nigga been through out here
I've been through a lot of struggles and hardships in my life.

Look Donnie I'm from a place
I come from a tough neighborhood with a lot of violence and crime.

We will fuck you up in chase you down
If you mess with us, we will fight back and not give up easily.

The silva Roam nigga the lone town
I come from a small town where everyone knows each other and we have to stick together for our safety.

Late night around this mutha
Late at night in this dangerous environment...

Fucka I ain't blew
I haven't started living a lavish lifestyle with wealth and luxury.

No big backyards, no swimming pools
I don't have the luxury of owning large properties with pools.

Just coke white t's man and dope money
All I have are white t-shirts and money I've made from selling drugs.

We introduce the system trying take
The government and the police are trying to take away our livelihood and freedom.

My life from me
They want to control and manipulate my life for their own benefit.

I left my baby mama for another bitch
I left my ex-girlfriend for someone else out of selfishness and greed.

Young nigga trying creep on a another lick
I'm always trying to hustle and make more money in any way possible.

Them white boys jump out on a nigga quick
Police officers are always ready to arrest and detain black people without hesitating.

Had to throw away a gun in another clip
I had to get rid of my gun and reload with a new clip to avoid getting caught by the police.

They want me to go to church
People often suggest that I should find religion and change my ways.

But I'm not a saint ya homey a hypocryte
I don't pretend to be perfect or moralistic like a saint, but I'm also not a hypocrite like some people who judge and criticize me.

This what a nigga ain't
I'm not a good person according to society's standards, but I'm just trying to survive.

I squeeze triggers man them bullets fly
I use guns and violence to protect myself and my livelihood.

Right After that muther fuckers call homocide
If I shoot someone, the police will consider it a homicide.

If you don't put in work your stomach growl
If you don't work hard and hustle to make money, you'll go hungry and struggle to survive.

Then they take you to trial
If you get caught by the police, they will put you on trial for your crimes.

Nigga you don't know what I been through
You don't understand my struggles and hardships in life.

I tell em times hard, the pain is even harder
I try to explain that life is difficult, and the emotional pain is even worse.

I used to pray for help but
I used to seek help from a higher power or other people, but now I've given up on that.

Now I don't even bother
I've stopped caring about religion or asking others for help because it never works.

They tell me life a bitchand
People say that life is tough and cruel.

I ain't got a chance
I don't have many opportunities or choices in life.

Now I'm in all black pistol in back my pants
I now carry a gun with me at all times for protection and safety.

Before it's over
Before I die or before things get even worse...

Know somebody gunna have to come get me
Someone will have to either come to help me or come to take me down and end my life of crime.

And if I go some one gunna
If I die or get caught, someone else will have to take my place as a criminal in this lifestyle.

Have to come with me
They will have to accompany me on this uncertain, dangerous path.

I struggled all my life this
I've always had to fight and endure hardship throughout my entire life.

Here ain't nothing new
My current situation and struggles are nothing new or surprising to me.

And fuck switching it up nigga
I refuse to change my ways or switch up my lifestyle for anyone else's benefit.

Who the fuck is you
I don't care about your opinion or what you have to say since you don't know what it's like to live in my shoes.

Thugging for plenny days
I've been living a life of crime for many years now.

Thugging for plenny nights
I've been engaged in illegal activities for long periods during the night as well.

With this shit in my trunk
I always carry illegal goods with me to sell or trade for money.

Dodgeing them colored lights
I have to avoid the flashing lights of police cars to avoid getting caught or arrested.

They say my life is dark
People think that my lifestyle is corrupt and morally wrong.

My future was never bright
I never had a good, promising future ahead of me.

Some people say I'm wrong
Some people judge and criticize me for my lifestyle choices.

I tell'em ain't nothing right
I argue that there's nothing truly right or perfect in life.

I barely sleep when I do it's
I struggle to get enough sleep, but when I do manage to rest...

Somewhere locked away it ain't for long
...I know that it won't last long and I will soon have to get back to work and hustle to survive.

I'm trafficing these blocks about
I'm always working and moving around on the streets to sell drugs and make money.

A block away
It only takes a short distance from my location to find customers to sell to or other opportunities to make money.

Haters trying block this chopper
Enemies or rivals are trying to stop me from succeeding or making money in this lifestyle.

Cocked they ain't gunna block today
But I won't let them stop me and I will succeed despite their efforts.

Many blocks I got come up short
Sometimes, trying to sell drugs or make money doesn't work out well and I fall short.

They gunna get rocked away
In those cases, I will use violence or intimidation to protect myself and my profits.

My brother doing life
My brother is currently serving a life sentence in prison for his involvement in crime.

I told him I'd be coming for him
I promised my brother that I would try to help him and support him while he's in prison.

If my ass don't make it through this
However, if I don't survive or get caught before I can help him...

Trip tell em it wasent for him
...then I want him to know that my life of crime and struggles weren't for him or his sake.

If I end up back on
If I get caught or arrested again...

My ass everybody is dinner
...then everyone else around me will pay the price and suffer because of my mistakes and choices.

You let me eat you get
However, if you help me and support me...

To live everybodys a winner
...then we can all succeed and benefit together.
