Intro -
This ain't livin;
1st verse -
*****;
I hear even the smaller 'g's be dippin' chevy impalas;
While flossin' they gold d's;
O.g's is who they follow;
We swallow tomorrow's seeds;
What we leave is hollow;
We feed violence and greed;
Let 'em lead tomorrow;
In time they grippin' nines;
Sippin' wine they wild;
Still i be starin';
Watch the parents sacrifice they child;
The love's gone;
A thug's home;
With no love feelin' so strong;
Make young boys in the club dealers;
Now one's for adolescents;
Now dose for doughs;
Keep your friends by your side;
Even close your foes;
Now three for johnny law;
Tryin' to take my chips;
I never pulled the trigger;
Didn't touch that *****;
Throw your hands in the air;
It's a robbery;
_________ think of pac;
Would you ride with me?;
Let's go see what our enemies talkin' 'bout;
When 'g's enter the house nobody's walkin' out;
This ain't livin;
It's similar to prison;
We're trapped;
My homies jealous plus they tell us that the phones is tapped;
I watch my back twenty-four seven;
And never let a busta send a 'g' to ghetto heaven;
Y-ou know;
This is how it goes;
When we floss with flows;
Before i toss your hoes;
It would cost you mo';
I do shows;
Make a lotta dough;
Murder my foes;
But i'd give it all up - if it would help you grow;
This ain't livin;
Hook 1 -
(singer)
Takes a life to make a life;
Livin in a world of crime -
And i -
Can't find a better way to breakthrough;
(pac)
This ain't livin;
(singer)
This ain't livin' - i gotta do what i gotta do;
(pac)
This ain't livin;
(singer)
Takes a life to make a life;
Livin in a world of crime -
And i -
Can't find a better way to breakthrough;
This ain't livin' - i gotta do what i gotta do;
2nd verse -
Peep;
Gunfire is produced at alarmin' rates;
Today's youth quick to shoot;
Get in the car and break;
It takes a nation of millions;
If we intend to stop the killin';
Just search your feelin's;
Participation should be appealin';
They our seeds;
And when they bleed we bleed;
That's what becomes of lonely children;
They turn to 'g's;
Heavenly father can you rescue?;
My young nation - rest;
The lord will protect you;
Respect due;
Not a threat;
As i step in blue;
And check those that opposed when i froze them fools;
And who are you - to watch me fall father;
I disappeared and reappeared as the _____________;
(my guess is 'as the don killuminati')
Follow me now;
Skippin' class and livin' fast;
Will get your ass;
Stuck in the pen;
Doin' life plus ten;
Young brother pump your brakes for me;
Before you choke;
Won't you soak up some game from your big homie;
This ain't livin';
We givin' you jewels;
Use 'em as tools;
Explode on the industry;
And fade them fools;
You know the rules;
Gotta be a ridah;
You can run the redlights but read the street signs;
Hey;
This for all of y'all to keep on raisin' hell;
Put a pistol in your hand and let you fade yourself;
It ain't right;
What you put your mama through;
Young 'g';
Gotta change your life;
Take the game from me;
This ain't livin';
Outro -
