My Way
The Game Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time that I come around we get lit
Especially when a nigga on that Compton shit
My empire and my hoes green
My pockets fat. My gun long
Nigga tell me what the fuck niggas mean when they say
"I ain't gonna pull up and let this motherfucker spray"
30 shots in the passenger side, I don't stick around
I don't give a fuck who die that day
He gon' die that day
Every time a bitch come she gon' turn up with me
In the club wherever fuck V.I.P
I got 12 bottles of whatever, telling niggas it's whatever
Everything I do is better than you fuck niggas
Man fuck niggas, man fuckboys, nigga fuck hoes
Nigga 45 we tuck those
She give me head, that's cutthroat
She leave with me, that's tough broke
Out

I do this shit my way
You do this shit my way
We do this shit my way
We do it my way

Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)

Fuck around and you miss this
Suck the crown and you kiss this
Stuck in town and you twist this
Luck is down and you diss this
Got two plugs like an outlet
Got loud money, you shout that
My lowest goal get mad rich
Your highest goal have a bad bitch
See I run my life no sad shit
My head in a box that's Brad Pitt
She roll me no fife let
Loyalty to a T stat
I see that, bleed that, she fuck with me I need that
She fuck with me I need that
She fuck with me I need that

I do this shit my way
You do this shit my way
We do this shit my way
We do it my way

Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)

Every time I come around we get lit
Especially when I'm on that LBC shit
My gun long, my paper long
Them haters gone, they where they belong
What the fuck you niggas mean when y'all say? (What?)
I won't cook you up with that AK
That'll hook you up to that IV
Your family look you up you in ER all day (what?)
That's for living that rider life
Y'all know what them east-siders like
Sometimes I wonder am I a psycho like? (Um)
Am I really in my right mind?
When I'm tryna get my mind right
With tequila and a light lime
While I'm living in the limelight
I'm just waiting on the right time
Till then get my time right
That's a watch with a bright shine
Let a real nigga shine bright
Eastside Crooked I baby it's me
I'm out here eating like a table for three
A nigga gotta wear a durag on a surfboard if he ever wanna be wavy as me
I'm looking for a ride or die chick
After I find a hoe I'ma go dynamite stick
I don't know why the hoe sitting on my testicle potato
This ain't Idaho, get out of my shit

Gotta go hard like that
'Cause nowadays bitches take pictures while you sleeping
Let the whole world know you creeping
Got me and my other bitches beefing
As soon as they fell in love I ran
Fuck 'em all day long, whats my plan?
Soon as it got dark I became an instinct
Eminem fanatic, one night stand

Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)




Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)
Dragging 'em up, up, up, up, up (my way)

YALL CHECK OUT K-RINO.......

POINT IS: Yall niggas reading this needa bump the 55++ albums that K-RINO has and
I PROMISE YOU, you will not meet a harder rapper than K-RINO - in terms of pure creativity and lyrical genius -..

POINT IS: K-RINO still produces HEAT. He's been in the rap game since 1983 and stayed underground for 97% of his career as an artist while dedicating most of his life to his hoods and his people in Houston. He
not only absolutely shred rappers lyrically but he speaks on the realest shit in our society, ie the power structure, the oligarch powers, all of our oppressors, he speaks on truth as pure as it is and does enough research that NO MAJOR RECORD LABEL DEAL WILL GO NEAR HIM..
He has prolifically exposed the mainstream entertainment industry and its evil many a times,.. and bodied their statist bourgeoisie accomplices over hundreds of beats, and does it like no other rapper I've ever seen..

AND HE'S STILL GOING,, 30+ YEARS K-RINO MADE HISTORY IN 2016 BY RELEASING 7 ALBUMS IN A SINGLE DAY... HE HAS RELEASED 4 SINCE THEN, AND PLANS TO RELEASE 4 MORE BEFORE 2018 IS THROUGH AND I'VE YET TO FIND A SINGLE WHACK SONG FROM HIM

All of his work is on youtube and I guarantee that if YOU value real hip-hop, you'll tell the tale of THIS LYRICAL WIZARD to all who value the same
