Lyrics

[feat. Lil Wayne and will.i.am]
 [Verse 1: Jay Rock]
 I was on the block right, wasn't in my right mind
 Just a young nigga, hustlin', tryna get mines
 Movin' with the 9 double m
 Niggas like "You don't really wanna fuck with him"
 Yeah, young teenager, 'fatuated with paper
 Yeah I had to get it, cause momma, she wasn't able
 Black and white TV set, no cable
 Forties in the fridge, chicken noodles on the table
 I wasn't born with a silver spoon
 Child of the ghetto, raised off a different tune
 Watchin' Bob Barker in my living room
 If "The Price Was Right", I could get you a whole living room
 Yeah, them was my gutter ways back in the gutter days
 No education, but the gutter pays
 Through it all came a long way
 From sellin' the yay', fist fights to gun play
 Back then
 [Chorus:]
 Sittin' on the block and I'm doin' bad
 Dreaming about the things that I never had
 Got me thinking to myself "I gotta get it man"
 You can play if you want, I'm gon' get it man
 I say, all my life I've known
 One day eventually I'll blow
 [Verse 2: Lil Wayne]
 Yeah
 Times is torn as it is
 That's why I got guns, and my guns got kids
 That's why I be goin' so tough on them hoes
 I play my own hand, I don't shuffle or fold
 Fuck with a nigga, let go fuck with some hoes
 Hear them bitches screamin' like they stuck in a hole
 I am not a deamon, but was once a lost soul
 'Til I found myself a block away from the cross road
 I have, outgrown the fishbowl
 And I'm on my feet like a fuckin insole
 Yeah it may hurt like a fuckin' left no
 But it's "fuck the world", like a fuckin nympho
 And we spend dough, cause we make more
 And I make sure, when I say so
 It's Jay Rock and Weezy, need I say more
 Closeline the beat tear, DB I say flow
 Yeah
 [Chorus:]
 Sittin' on the block and I'm doin' bad
 Dreaming about the things that I never had
 Got me thinking to myself "I gotta get it man"
 You can play if you want, I'm gon' get it man
 I say, all my life I've known
 One day eventually I'll blow
 [Verse 3: Jay Rock]
 Jay Rock, still that same O.G.
 I ain't tryna see the grave or the penitentary
 Everyday living, tryna stay on my feet
 Even though a nigga paid, but my heart in the streets
 See my dogs I'm a beast, so hard on these beats
 So my family can eat, I'll be damned if I see
 No income, here come Jay Rock, they know crack music
 Drug kingpin flow, oh
 [Lil Wayne:]
 Kingpin hoe, need I say more
 Your family could die, when I say go (go)
 Green light green light, whatcha green like?
 Before ya size me up, get the seam right
 And I just hop in the phantom when I'm being nice
 Cause drivin' slow in the Lam', it doesn't seem right
 Yeah, and I remember them long nights
 Livin' the wrong life, but I made that wrong right
 Weezy!
 [Bridge:]
 All the struggling
 All it does is keep my hustling, oh my
 [Chorus:]
 Sittin' on the block and I'm doin' bad
 Dreaming about the things that I never had
 Got me thinking to myself "I gotta get it man"
 You can play if you want, I'm gon' get it man
 I say, all my life I've known
 One day eventually I'll blow
