Pimp got
Trials and tribulations
Different situations
It's all in the game
Gotta feel me though
Know what I'm sayin'?
My nigga Fat Pat in the house
But for right now
L.D.
represent
Now mama said I grew up just too rough
And I'll never forget the first time my brother got handcuffed
Hard-headed,
no denying And it hurt me so bad when mama started crying
And it just got worse in time Cause in the ghetto,
fool,
it ain't nothin'
but crime Growing up in the midst of hard times,
gee
I seen real niggas get stranded in the straight-up fiends
And the more I grew,
more niggas got subtracted From
reality and still can't kick the habit
I hung deep in the slums where they slung rocks to come up
Cooler than Fonzie, cap backers with my thumb up
Candy C in my mall,
pants saggin' Strapped with slingshots with eight locs taggin'
Shootin' windows out my neighbor's home
And left the ball that later rolled in the
phone
Even though you're struggling,
caught up in the rapture
Gotta keep hustling, put your faith in God
Against all odds,
I gotta survive as hard as hell
To walk a straight line,
but I put it in his hand
Cause I know that the man watches over me
To make sure it's going clean
And I know that I'm over doing the things I do
Not spending enough time with Pat number two
But to lay it on the line, I gotta put it down
So my son can live rich before he turn nine
Staying down on the grind,
putting the past behind
When haters and hoes, yeah, they all talk down
Yeah, it's money over bitches and that's M.O.B.
Heavy paper chasing fat Pat and CB Yeah,
release me to the world so that they can see
How I capitalize on the game to be a G

Can you feel me now, feel me now?
No kids,
no hoes,
I was labeled a scrub I pushed and shoved for neighborhood love
Freestyle dub,
played in clubs,
politics and drugs It's a nation of thugs,
and that's love,
big and sharp
But they never amazed me,
I ain't sick,
lame,
or lazy But stress got me crazy,
trials and tribulations
Different situations,
the chip on my shelf That make me realize I'm older,
got up,
got witty
Cause I had to get it,
sunk ships,
flipped chips And multiplied my digits,
it was real
What did I deal with?
Nobody signed me But now I got the whole wide world behind me
Can you feel me?
Uh,
