No adlibs either

gang

I can't live the same as these lil' niggas (I can't, I swear)
My moms need a house and my nephew's sister, yeah (they both do, you know?)
I need somethin' quicker (I do)
I was tired of giving work to these lil' niggas (it was wack, it was boring)
These hoes trying to work but work out with your nigga (where your man?)
I love all my guys, I don't see them different (I don't see different)
I'll be damned if they say that I'm moving different (how?)
Niggas tryna kill me, gotta move my pivot

My arm start to hurt when I whip that brick up (whippin', whippin')
I take a L come back up like a sit-up (take a L)
What the fuck get your weight up? (get it up)
'Cause he dropping all those tracks and it don't say none (they don't mean none)
I said I love you, maybe do but it don't mean none (I swear)
I got this model bitch, she fiendin' but can't get none (I swear)
I need some Percs, call your man if he can get some (can he get some?)
And call that bitch that you posted, I want a threesome
I love my team, I get a bag, I split it three ways
I give her time on the night shift, on the free day (on a slow day)
I'm with the plug and this bitch, he don't show face (he don't show face)
My plug he mad at me because of old shit
I was fucking up the packs and then I owe shit (and then I owed it)
I look back, I do it different, that was ho shit
Now I'm in too deep, I gotta move quick
I cannot shoot this unless he test me
I had little self esteem but now it's up there (but now I'm up there)
I be thinking to myself like, "How we get here?" (how we get here, fam?)
She say it's amazing (how?), she loves the lifestyle (what the fuck, my guy?)
You have to put yourself first for this lifestyle

I can't live the same as these lil' niggas (I can't, I swear)
My moms need a house and my nephew's sister, yeah (they both do, you know?)
I need somethin' quicker (I do)
I was tired of giving work to these lil' niggas (it was wack, it was boring)
These hoes trying to work but work out with your nigga (where your man?)
I love all my guys, I don't see them different (I don't see different)
I'll be damned if they say that I'm moving different (how?)
Niggas tryna kill me, gotta move my pivot

(Gang, gang) yeah
Gotta go, bye
Gotta hit the road, I ain't saying why (I'm telling you)
How come when we getting blessed I see the devil try (it always happen)
Had to get it out the mud just to stay alive (gang)
Had to break the piggy bank and then I re'd (that was fucked)
I never ran off on the plug, he was my G (that was my dawg)
I took a break and then I hopped back in the streets (bad)
Then I head to LAX to get some P's (gone)
I did a song with all my dawgs and help 'em eat (that's gang)
I lost my nigga to a cell, just let him free (let him out)
You want a feature from the Smigs it cost a fee (cost a little)
you never was a fan you gonna see

I can't live the same as these lil' niggas (I can't, I swear)
My moms need a house and my nephew's sister, yeah (they both do, you know?)
I need somethin' quicker (I do)
I was tired of giving work to these lil' niggas (it was wack, it was boring)
These hoes trying to work but work out with your nigga (where your man?)
I love all my guys, I don't see them different (I don't see different)




I'll be damned if they say that I'm moving different (how?)
Niggas tryna kill me, gotta move my pivot
