Second chance
The Game Lyrics

I'm free as a motherfuckin' bird I swear,
I have total freedom to move around and do as I please.

Disappear in thin air, there go Game, nigga where?
I disappear out of sight very easily, making it difficult for people to locate me.

Posted on the block in them black Airs,
I'm hanging out in the streets with my black sneakers on.

In that all black Phantom, hug the block like a bear,
I'm driving around in a black car and keeping a watchful eye over the neighborhood.

Yeah, that V12 is roarin',
My car's engine is powerful and making a lot of noise.

Flyin' through the city with the pedal to the floor then -
I am driving very fast through the city with the accelerator pushed all the way down.

I put them 26 inches on the curb, tell the hood I'm back,
I'm showing off my 26-inch wheels and letting people know I'm back in the neighborhood.

Give me a corner - let me serve,
I want to sell drugs on a street corner.

Swerve, I'm still dope that's my word,
I'm still selling drugs and that's my choice.

All I did was the switch the kitchens,
I only changed the location where I cook the drugs.

Did some tracks on the birds...
I made some music about drug dealing.

Irv - Gotti know I'ma murderer,
Irv Gotti knows I'm a killer.

Half these niggas beefin' with me,
Half of these guys are fighting with me.

I never heard of them,
I don't know who they are.

If I was the old me I would murda them
If I was my old self, I would kill them.

Matter fact, if I was the old me - I would Curtis them,
In fact, if I was myself from the past, I would do to them what happened to rapper 50 Cent.

You look like you're in another world
You appear to be in a different place in your mind.

But I can read your mind
I can understand what you're thinking.

How can you be so far away
How can you be so distant?

Lying by my side
But you're next to me in bed.

I never would've dreamed in a million years I'd see,
I never imagined I would experience this.

So many motherfuckin' people who feel like me, who share the same views
So many people who think like me and agree with what I'm saying.

And the same exact beliefs, it's like a fuckin' army marchin' in back of me,
It's as if a whole army is behind me, agreeing with everything I say and do.

so many lives I Touch, so much anger aimed,
I have affected many people's lives, creating a lot of anger and resentment towards me.

in no particular direction, just sprays and sprays,
All the anger is not necessarily directed at me personally, but it's spread out all over.

and straight through your radio waves it plays and plays,
My music is played constantly on the radio, pushing my ideas and thoughts out to people.

'till it stays stuck in your head for days and Days,
My music is so catchy that it stays in your head for a long time.

who would of thought,
Who would have known?

standing in this mirror bleachin' my hair, with some peroxide,
I had no idea that standing in front of the mirror bleaching my hair with peroxide would lead me to this point.

Reaching for a t-shirt to wear,
I was just trying to find a shirt to wear that day.

that I would catapult to the forefront of rap like this, how
I never imagined I would become so famous in the world of rap music.

Could I predict my words would have an impact like this,
I had no idea that my lyrics would have such a huge impact on people.

I must've struck a chord,
I must have touched a nerve with people.

with somebody up in the office,
I must have captured the attention of someone in power in the music industry.

cause congress keeps telling me I ain't causin' nuthin' but problems,
Congress has been criticizing me, saying that I'm causing more problems than I'm solving.

and now, they're sayin' I'm in trouble with the government,
Now, the authorities are saying that I am breaking the law.

I'm lovin' it,
I don't really care, I'm enjoying the fame and attention.

I shoveled shit all my life,
I had a rough childhood and have had to work hard all my life.

And now I'm dumping it on...
Now I'm putting all my hardships into my music and sharing it with the world.

Cos when the sun come up - from behind the sea,
When the sun rises from behind the ocean...

Niggas see me behind the B,
People see me behind my black car, which is a Bentley.

E N T. don't stand for entertainment,
The initials E N T are not short for entertainment.

Stands for zero to sixty,
It stands for the ability to go from zero to sixty miles per hour quickly.

anybody see where Game went?
Does anyone know where I went?

To the hood,
I went to my old neighborhood.

parked crooked behind that chained fence,
I parked my car crookedly behind a fence that had chains on it.

And I'm going down behind my dogs, but I ain't Vick!
I'm going down and going to jail for my friends, but I'm not like Michael Vick.

Tell me one album I put out that ain't sick?
Name one album that I've released that isn't awesome.

No I'm not the Doctor, but I produce the same shit!
I'm not a medical doctor, but I produce the same kind of thing as Dr. Dre.

Look at these eyes, baby blue, baby just like yourself,
Look at my blue eyes, which are similar to yours.

If they were brown, Shady lose, Shady sits on the shelf,
If I had brown eyes, I wouldn't be as successful as I am now.

But Shady's cute, Shady knew, Shady's dimple's would help,
But I am cute, and my dimples are a good thing for me.

make ladies swoon baby, {ooh baby},
Ladies are attracted to me.

Look at my sales, let's do the math,
Look at how many records I've sold, let's calculate it.

if I was black, I would've sold half,
If I was black, I wouldn't have sold as many records as I have.

I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln high school to know that,
I don't need a diploma from Lincoln High School to figure that out.

but I could rap, so fuck school,
But I can rap, so school doesn't matter.

I'm too cool to go back,
I'm too cool to go back to school.

gimme the mic, show me where the fuckin' studio's at!
Give me the microphone and show me where the recording studio is located.
