"The Way It's Gone Go" lyrics

Now usually I don't laugh and joke

See but lately I've been joking and laughing
To try to keep myself from blasting
I'm a professional when it come to keeping my cool
But sometime I be itching to act a goddamn fool

Ready to slide a clip in the chopper and straight up go retarded
Homie y'all already know I'm stupid please don't get me started
I'm tired of catching cases, bond money and attorneys
But I'll do a life sentence before I let somebody burn me
And if it ain't my friends it's my kinfolk
That'll make me slide 'em up under something
Even murk 'em when the MAC-10 smoke

I don't wanna be the reason people ain't breathing
So when a crowd start gathering that's when I'ma be leaving
Whenever you see me I'll be alone
Cause if ain't nobody with me who can
Say they saw me do something wrong
Friends turn into flies like caterpillars turn into butterflies
I'm solid but I can't say the same about them other guys

Me and my people ain't getting down no more
That ain't the way it's supposed to be but that's the way it's gon' go
I'm showing you love but I love myself even more
So if it's either you or Z-Ro you know you gotta go
Trust no man or nigga, no female or hoe
I used to have friends but I don't want friends no more
They just come around to kick it when I'm rolling in dough
So if you ain't my Lord and savior you gotta be my foe

I gotta die one day and that's one thing I understand
Hopefully while I'm sleeping and not at the hands of a man
Cause the same homie that keep saying he's down for life
Might be money hungry itching to shoot me down on sight
It's ten rules to survival but I'll share with you six
Note, most people that get robbed ain't even close to being rich
Rule one ain't even complicated make sure this is done

Homie never leave the pad without packing a gun
Two, stick to who you know, new faces might be the feds
Keep your family safe, three don't hustle where you lay your head
Rule four, never let your left hand know what your right hand did
The quickest way to go broke or to do a bid
And the jackers ain't just after your cheese

Rule five, never ever underestimate the next man's greed
Rule six, trust nobody, not even who you sleep with
They'll tell your secrets now your enemies know your weakness

Me and my people ain't getting down no more
That ain't the way it's supposed to be but that's the way it's gon' go
I'm showing you love but I love myself even more
So if it's either you or Z-Ro you know you gotta go
Trust no man or nigga, no female or hoe
I used to have friends but I don't want friends no more
They just come around to kick it when I'm rolling in dough
So if you ain't my Lord and savior you gotta be my foe

I'm gon' forever represent my Missouri City streets
But I won't die behind 'em cause when I'm gone they can't go with me

I got children to raise and I gotta make sure that they eat

Handle my business so when I'm gone they gon' know daddy was me
I might take a minor setback for the major come up
Every day I hustle like Rick Ross sun down to sun up
King of the ghetto what they call me cause I rule this bitch
I'm 'bout business I don't participate in foolishness
I got a Bible in my right hand and a pistol in the other
I'd rather bless you but I will wet you and I bet you won't suffer
They said you get a minute to pray and a second to die

Fucking with me it all happens in the blink of an eye
Once I go to war with somebody I don't believe in truces
Better watch out for my blood homies not just the treys and deuces
Me and the you know who be falling out like hoes
But I love 'em enough to ride for 'em then
It's right back to ain't down no more

Me and my people ain't getting down no more
That ain't the way it's supposed to be but that's the way it's gon' go
I'm showing you love but I love myself even more
So if it's either you or Z-Ro you know you gotta go
Trust no man or nigga, no female or hoe
I used to have friends but I don't want friends no more
They just come around to kick it when I'm rolling in dough
So if you ain't my Lord and savior you gotta be my foe
