[Intro:]
2
Hey I got a dolla in a dream*
3
But it's all a nigga got so it's about that green
4
And I'm all up in that spot
5
Hey
6
[Verse 1:]
7
Yeah the mental state of a young black genius conflicted
8
The fast life I done seen on the screen is addictive
9
Money and clothes I done dreamed about
10
And all the hoes that I thinked about
11
Ey tell me am I wrong for visualizing material shit I neva had
12
Waving gats instead of flags the American dream
13
Why do we cling to the villians?
14
Knowing they killin'
15
My niggas high enough to swaing from the ceiling
16
Ink from the pen spilling on my notebook
17
Filled with dreams, this is my whole book
18
Still the screams from girls shot and killed fill my head on a daily
19
At times I question God can you blame me they can't tame me?
20
My voice screech through the street I'm a beast on em
21
Oh no he will not fold you will not see a priest on him
22
He will not slip or lose his grip they got them cleats on em
23
But never will he run unless you call police on em
24
[Chorus:]
25
One time, two times, three times
26
Sometimes I scrap sometimes I'm throwin up the peace sign
27
It's two sides to a nigga though
28
I said It's two sides to a nigga yo
29
Ey look sometimes I'm feeling high
30
Then I'm feeling low
31
Lord will I die will I survive let a nigga know
32
You say you know me but what side did you get to know?
33
It's two sides to a nigga yo yo yo
34
[Verse 2:]
35
Yeah some pussy niggas put out on me and my mans
36
Wasn't for the pistol we drop em right there where he stands
37
But still we never ran foolish pride made us stand right there
38
Not understanding we could lose our life there
39
And then the hit us, thinking bout the close calls from long distance
40
Ugh as lil niggas in the Ville we was trippin
41
Type of nose ass niggas to watching the fight until it's over
42
They ran when the gatts came out, I moved closer
43
Foolish what was I thinking? wasn't trying to be cool it's
44
Just the thrill of the danger get so filled up with anger
45
When a stranger get to violating
46
He sleeping on me wide awake, bitch I, ll annihilate him
47
I'm tired of wait on my ticket out this motherfucka
48
Hope they don't kill me before I get up out this motherfucka
49
I gotta go,
50
Now can I be that nigga I thought I was? I gotta know
51
Will I make it like I thought I would? I gotta blow
52
[Chorus]
53
[Verse 3:]
54
Yeah I seen heaven, seen hell
55
The two faces of the Ville
56
One side dreams, the other sides real
57
One side schemes, the other side deals
58
What the pain brings another mother cry still
59
Why the fuck am I here God?
60
That nigga died why the fuck am I still alive?
61
I feel ashamed cause the good Lord done brought all this success to me
62
And all I seem to focus on is all this stress on me
63
Bless homie we breathin
64
Cold world got me sneezing
65
Wrote this when I was broke so hey I guess we even
66
Though it blows fighting demons trying to stop from bustin semen
67
In an unfamiliar bitch I know my niggas feel this shit
68
How could I fuck her raw? And I just met the hoe
69
My dick took over it ain't never felt this wet before
70
I'm stressing in my mind but it's way to late to stop it
71
Make this shit so bad, I had a condom in my pocket
72
Let's change the topic
73
Before I go berserk
74
I'm so alert, riding down 95
75
Naw I ain't finna to go to work
76
I'm headed back home ain't staying that long
77
I'm chasing dreams shawty I'm paying back loans
78
I'm paying dues that a nigga paying tax on
79
I'm tryina blow like a nigga playing saxophone
80
I'm playing daddy to another niggas daughter
81
Don't worry even Jesus never saw his real father
82
I don't bother me at all though
83
Yeah say it don't bother me
84
They got me thinking bout my mom though
85
Man I can't wait to sing this song I be like, I be like
86
[Outro:]
87
Hey don't cry hey ohh no
88
We ain't gotta worry bout the money no more
89
We ain't gotta worry bout how them bill get paid
90
We ain't gotta worry how the meals get fed
91
Hey don't cry hey ohh no
92
We ain't gotta worry bout the money no more
93
We ain't gotta worry bout how them bill get paid
94
We ain't gotta worry how the meals get fed
95
