Omarion
Uh, yeah, once again
Chorus:
I've been goin' through somethings (ohhh)
I been strugglin' with my inner and (yeah, yeah), I hustle
I'll do what I can to get this money (uh, yeah, listen)
I know I promised you some things (some things)
There's gotta be a better way
It's not easy to make that change
The streets keep callin' me
Last night tryin' to make it home (make it home)
I get this call on my phone (on my cell)
Stop yellin', slow down, I can't understand a word you' sayin'
Did you say my nigga got killed? (is he dead)
Did you say he didn't make it? (is he dead)
Please tell me you know who did this
I'm on my way and somebody's gonna get it
Mash the pettle on the highway-seen him
Heard my baby in the back ground - pleanin'
Come home and leave it alone
It's out of the question girl, it's on
What about his new boy child
Did you know that he was born?
I don't wanna hear this shit right now
When they just stretched my nigga out
Chorus
Call my name sayin' how you gonna get paid
No education, 'cause of minimum wage
Minimum wage equals minimum pay
And you know real niggas wanna play
Won't you come on and move this way
School don't guarantee a higher pay
That's the shit that'll get me locked away
Man they tryin' to give a nigga all day
Now I'm out here every night comin' in late
If you slip then I'm comin' for the take
It's goin' fast and I need to hit the breaks
The greater the risk the more you make
All my thoughts are in the house, what about just shuttin' down
But girl I really can't quit right now
Notice on the floor they tryin' to through us out
Chorus
Hook
Although (although)
I was raised right (ooh)
Still these streets ain't nothin' nice
They can't change the coast of life
And you know that I know (I know)
That I must grow (must grow)
See my kids grow
But still the streets are all I know
Chorus 2X
