Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

This Life

You don't want to live this life

No, this life, it's not nice

You don't want to live this life

No, this life, it's not nice

Nigga stop! (What?) Hold on, before you jump and just listen

Take a second to stradle the fence

Let me tell you about what you been missin'

Ain't a damn thang (damn thang) are you thinkin' the grass is greener?

Like a nigga just lost his first love, singin' "Have you seen her?"

Tossin' high beams, chasin' pipe dreams

Lookin' for shit that really ain't there

I mean it is what you make it my nigga, you better just stay on your square

Down here, killers and thieves, pimps and pushers is on the prowl

If they find you out of your element, they'll pick you out of the crowd

Thang to do is face the music, take a stand for yo' position

Nigga get up, better stand up, man up in yo' position

Never have no mercy for them niggaz that's not applyin' theyself

And shit ain't perfect so you gotta make it work for yo'self

You catch them coward niggaz runnin', duckin', lookin' for help

But the realist niggaz in the game, play the cards they was dealt

Me, myself, I got some issues; I ain't dealin' with yours

Everybody got they own drama, rich or they poor

They gave me the 25 with the L, I'm in my jail cell

It feel like a movie, I'm gettin' so woozy from the stale smell

Bailin', breathin' Hell's air

My first day here I had to get down with a nigga

That thought I was some kinda faggot, I had to show him no hoes stay here

Havin' to die, it is my main fear

Why did I have to kill that man? I should've never let my anger build

Now my state of awareness keeps me wishin' I was thinkin'

Should have reason I didn't really mean to stop the boy from breathin'

I was awake last night, real late last night

Cause I heard some nigga screamin', gettin' raped last night

I did the crime, but I wasn't thinkin' about me doin' the time

These 6-by-9's, is about to make me lose my mind

Trapped in these closed walls ain't had no conversation

With my family on the outside cause they won't except my phone calls

After a couple of years of sheddin' tears, my heart is stone hard

Believe I'm ready for war and on guard

I've been shot, grew up without my pops

In the hood round block seen niggaz shot

Got rid of them thangs, tryin' to chase them knots

Cause I had to have it, knew niggaz that's lookin' for where my stash at

Watchin' my back, puttin' up ready for niggaz that wanna check that

And I can't keep it kind, if you puttin' in work

And your dreams is just like mine

Wake up in cold sweats, regrets about what I thought was lies

I can see me not doin' that

But I did it, we live it, the hood shows you no slack

And believe it, there's no, no-no, comin' back

Make money, think you're on that

Just ridin' through the hood, you might have to push your wig back

Get the money man, the root of all evil

They say "Take it home man," but damn I gotta watch my people

You'll be high, cause one us lay there, not just him

But damn, everybody he ran with

They all gettin' money man, money man

Right here (right here) damn, see how life is
