Being a black man in America is me.
It's in the gas,
it's in the gas,
it's in the gas,
it's in the gas,
it's in the gas,
it's in the gas.
All I'm saying is,
all I'm saying,
all right?
Black skin versus spit,
America make the decision.
Another backfire collision gave me visions of prison.
Ghetto streets with hurt thieves
from the cradle to the grave.
A modern day slave praying the Lord to be saved.
A different society but the same situation.
Thug time probation equals permanent vacation.
The gang is very chivalric political.
Be a ball and add a lesson until things get critical.
Young at age, I wash my hands in dirt.
Major feelings got hurt,
the gang's price on my shirt.
For what it's worth,
I don't smirk,
cuz a grin is a sin.
Check the grave and the pen,
and you a fine black man.
Until then,
we're overcoming,
thank God to be blessed.
Put the wind behind my back until he laid me to rest.
I got stress,
and I'm crazy,
ain't no easing of pain.
Who's the one to blame,
cuz it's all in the game.
It's in the gas,

Democratically speaking,
education,
and teaching.
To my children
I'm preaching,
there is no limit to reaching,
and I'm seeking for your soul,

and follow in the footsteps of positive roles.
College is knowledge, but who's
gonna pay for the courses?
And some turn their life to the United Forces.
Mama's only son really got played Shife,
a country of guns against his one only
life.
But see,
slanging and banging really grew throughout the years.
And pushing
cocaine became some of our careers.
Will I reach 30 before I push up daisies?
Life is so shady and babies having babies,
it's serious,
with no time to spare.
IT'S IN THE GAS!
to die in the ditch,
get rich and advance,
you only get one chance,
be smarter than hands
or be a victim of circumstance,
money ain't everything,
gonna be here when I'm gone,
best
believe I can live comfortably if my money is long,
I thank God for helping me,
and easing
the pain,
taking strains from my brain,
cause it's all in the game,
it's in the game,
it's
in the game,
it's in the game,
it's in the game,
being a black man in America,
it's in
