[Intro]
Punk ass motherf**ka!
b*tch ass n*gga!
What were you gonna do?
Kill me in my sleep u b*tch ass n*gga?
Tupac, Biggie shut the f**k up!
f**king dogs, they barking sh*t...
Don`t shoot me! Don`t shoot me!
f**k you n*gga!
[Chorus (Lil` Wayne)]
And I`m grindin` until I`m die
they say you ain`t grindin` until you die
So I`m grinding with my eyes wide
Looking to find,
A way through the day
The life for the night
Dear lord you`ve take so many of my people
I`m just wondering why you haven`t taken my life
Like what the hell am I doing right?
[Verse 1 (The Game)]
Take me away from the hood
like a state penitentiary.
Take me away from the hood
in a casket or a Bentley.
Take me away...
Like I overdosed on cocaine,
or take me away
like a bullet from Kurt Cobain.
Suicide.
I`m from a windy city
like do or die.
From a block close to
where Biggie was crucified.
That was Brooklyn`s Jesus
shot for no f**king reason.
And you wonder why Kanye
wear his Jesus pieces.
(My life!)
Cause that`s Jesus people,
and Game he`s the equal.
Hated on so much
Passion Of The Christ need a sequel.
Yeah, like Rockefeller need a Segal.
Like I needed my father,
(My life!)
but he needed a needle.
I need some meditation
so I can lead my people.
They askin` why?
Why did John Lennon leave the Beetles?
And Why every hood n*gga
feed off evil?
Answer my question before this
bullet leave this Desert Eagle.
[Chorus (Lil` Wayne)]
And I`m grindin` until I`m tired
And you ain`t grindin` until you die
So I`m grinding with my eyes wide
Looking to find,
A way through the day
The life of the night
Dear lord you`ve take so many of my people
I`m just wondering why you haven`t taken my life
Like what the hell am I doing right?
[Verse 2 (The Game)]
We are not the same,
I am a martian.
So approach my Phantom doors
with caution.
You see them 24`s spinnin`
I earned them.
I ain`t no preacher,
but here`s my Erick Sermon
So eat this black music and
tell me how it taste now
and f**k Jesse Jackson
because it ain`t about race now.
Sometimes I think about my life
with my face down.
Then I see my sons
and put on that Kanye smile.
Damn I know his mama proud,
and since you helped me sell my dream,
we can share my mama now.
And like MJB, no more drama now.
Livin` the good life,
me and Common on common ground.
I spit crack,
and n*ggas could drive it outta town.
Got a Chris Paul mind state,
I`m never out of bounds.
My life use to be empty
like a Glock without a round.
Now my life full
like a chopper with a thousand rounds.
[Chorus (Lil` Wayne)]
And I`m grindin` until I`m tired
And you ain`t grindin` until you die
So I`m grinding with my eyes wide
Looking to find,
A way through the day
The life of the night
Dear lord you`ve take so many of my people
I`m just wondering why you haven`t taken my life
Like what the hell am I doing right?
[Verse 3 (The Game)]
Walked through the gates of hell,
see my Impala parked in front,
with the high beams on.
Me and the devil
sharing chronic blunts.
Listening to The Chronic album,
playin` backwards.
Shootin` at pictures of Don Imus
for target practice.
My mind f**ked up, so I
cover it with a Raider hood.
I`m from the city that made you
motherf**kers afraid of Suge
Made my Grandmother pray for good
and never made her happy,
but I bet that new Mercedes could.
Ain`t no bars, but n*ggas can`t
escape the hood.
They took so many of my n*ggas,
that I should hate the hood.
But it`s real n*ggas like me
that make the hood.
Ridin` slow in that Phantom
just the way I should.
With the top back
and my Sox hat.
I`m Paid in Full,
the n*gga Alvo couldn`t stop that.
Even if they brought the n*gga Pac back,
I`d still keep this motherf**ker c*cked back.
[Chorus (Lil` Wayne)]
And I`m grindin` until I`m tired
And you ain`t grindin` until you die
So I`m grinding with my eyes wide
Looking to find,
A way through the day
The life of the night
Dear lord you`ve take so many of my people
I`m just wondering why you haven`t taken my life
Like what the hell am I doing right?
My Life [4X]
