Oh yeah I got the perfect song
For the kids to sing
And all my people that's drug dealing
Just to get by
Stack your money till it gets sky high
We wasn't suppose to make it past 25
Joke's on you we still alive
Throw your hands up in the sky and say
We don't care what people say
If this is your first time hearin' this
You are about to experience somethin'
So cold man
We never had nothing handed
Took nothing for granted
Took nothin' from no man man I'm my own man
But as a shorty I looked up to the dope man
Only adult man I knew that wasn't broke man
Flickin' Starter coats man
Man you don't know man
We don't care what people say
This is for my nigga s outside all winter
'Cuz this summer they ain't finna
Say next summer I'm finna
Sittin' in the hood like community colleges
This dope money here is lil Tre's scholarship
'Cuz ain't no tuition for havin' no ambition
And ain't no loans for sittin'
Your a*s at home
So we forced to sell crack rap and get a job
You gotta do somethin' man your a*s is grown
Drug dealin' just to get by
Stack your money till it gets sky high
Kids sing kids sing
We wasn't suppose to make it past 25
Joke's on you we still alive
Throw your hands up in the sky and say
We don't care what people say
The second verse is for my dawgs
Working 9 to 5
That still hustle 'cuz a nigga
Can't shine off 6 55
And everybody sellin' make up
Jacob's and bootleg tapes
Just to get they cake up we put
shit on layaway then come back
We claim other people kids on our income tax
We take that money cop work then push packs
To get paid and we don't care what people say
Momma say she wanna move south
Scratching lottery tickets eyes
On a new house
Around the same time Doe ran
Up in Dude's house couldn't get a job
So since he couldn't get work
He figured he take work
The drug game bolemic it's
Hard to get weight
So nigga s money is homo
It's hard to get straight
But we gonna keep bakin'
To the day we get cake
And we don't care what people say
My nigga s
Drug dealin' just to get by
Stack your money till it gets sky high
Kids sing kids sing
We wasn't suppose to make it past 25
Joke's on you we still alive
Throw your hands up in the sky and say
We don't care what people say
You know the kids gonna act a fool
When you stop the programs for after
School and they DCF's
Some of them dyslexic they favorite
50 cent song 12 questions
We scream rocks blow weed park
See now we smart we ain't retards
The way teachers thought hold up
Hold fast we make mo' cash
Now tell my momma I belong
In that slow class
It's bad enough we on welfare
You tryna to put me on the school
Bus with the space for the wheel chair
I'm tryna get the car with the
Chromy wheels here
You tryna cut our lights out
Like we don't live here
Look at what's handed us
Father's abandon us
When we get the hammers
Go and call the ambulance
Sometimes I feel no one
In this world understands us
But we don't care what people say
My nigga s
Drug dealin' just to get by
Stack your money till it gets sky high
Kids sing kids sing
We wasn't suppose to make it past 25
Joke's on you we still alive
Throw your hands up in the sky and say
We don't care what people say
