[Ludacris]
2
Ooh..You feel that
3
As I take you to them dirt roads deep down in your southern roots
4
Where nobody said life was gon be easy
5
And we travel through this emotional rollercoaster called life
6
and we have our ups and downs
7
Just keep in mind, when you hit rock bottom
8
There ain't nowhere to go but up baby
9
Just all about how you deal with it, ya feel me
10
Listen here
11
(Chorus 2X: Ludacris) + [Trick Daddy]
12
When life seems hopeless
13
It make a nigga lose focus
14
Empty beer bottles and roaches
15
[Helps to get it off my chest
16
Cause I'm so stressed
17
And all I hear is] FUCK THE WORLD
18
[Ludacris]
19
Man, ever since life's been a gamble, my lifes been in shambles
20
Double-edge swords burning both sides of the candle
21
But Chris, you can't handle the truth
22
Don't wanna face reality
23
So lower than accept my apology
24
Please like when police say freeze
25
And I ain't do shit but I'm down on my knees
26
Its a crooked system but gin straight take the pain away
27
I charge the game and put my problems on layaway
28
A black man but I feel so blue
29
So I smoke green and purple til my dreams come true
30
And my eyes turn red, the sky turns grey
31
Children slangin white in the hood, we call it yay
32
Drinkin' Ol' Gold down my yellow brick road
33
Where we write my script until my storys been told
34
See, I got a little money and my lifes been up
35
Now I'm fallen and I can't get up
36
[Chorus]
37
[Trick Daddy]
38
I had a dream about a dope fiend
39
And its strange cause he get a bentley right away
40
seem to get just for bout anything
41
Pure survival, I want to talk with him
42
He said he was too busy for that but I was more than willing the walk with him
43
So as we walked, he talked and I just listened
44
He said theres a big difference between crackers and niggaz
45
And he said white folks look out for the white folks
46
But uhh...black folks blame other black folks when there ain't enough black folks
47
But yo...to make a long story short
48
We need to pay more attention and do things thats way more convincing
49
He told me you know, I wouldn't say something that wasn't worth it
50
And I damn sure wouldn't waste my time tellin you something that'll hurt you
51
Its your fault for anything if you done stand for something thats for certain
52
But niggaz don't be listenin and that shit be hurtin
53
Not all of us but some of us
54
And if we don't hurry up, they gon bury each and every life of us
55
[Chorus]
56
[Ludacris]
57
Sometimes I can't deal with my daily issues just being sober
58
Lifes a bitch and I can't control her
59
I wish I could and sometimes to cry on we need a shoulder
60
The government stand us up to run us over
61
And in the hood, they don't seem to understand, god damn
62
What's really got me wondering if this part of the bigger plan?
63
Man I smell something fishy going on
64
Its way beyond blowing away the smoke from all of swishas going on
65
There ain't much that I can do about it (no)
66
But preach the word, tell my peoples spend your money wisely (yup)
67
Don't be absurd by somethings that are fishy (Like what)
68
Like at home, wake up and open your eyes to what the fuck is going on
69
Cause they constantly getting rid of us (yup)
70
One by one, whether its drugs or diseases or its gun by gun
71
I ain't no saint either, I feel I'm even doing wrong
72
By using whats in this chorus to get through this song
73
[Chorus]
74
[Trick Daddy]
75
You know, y'all gonna mess around and keep on complaining
76
Bout slavery and umm that was over 40-50 years ago, you know
77
Black folks need to move on
78
no stay strong and umm, y'all keep playing with us crackers
79
They gonna have your ass somewhat tied up, wired up
80
Of the backroads of South Florida, Georgia you know
81
And they make it so God can't do nothing for you
82
Can a church get an Amen
83
God for the thugs too
84
Amen
