Lyrics

{intro}
 This music thang
 i'm doin' it for my family and my homies
 im tryin' to leave some cash in they pockets before I go
 the clock is tickin', it's just a matter of time
 {}
 If enemies lay me down to sleep
 I pray to the lord my so he'll keep
 when i die in this life of hate
 I pray to the lord my soul he'll take
 In this life of sin
 God tell me where do I begin
 I've rejected you my whole life, but now im listenin'
 accepted you as my friend
 my heart is open hopin' for a change
 but I' still a killer inside
 I feel it in my veins
 ain't got the strength to rise up out this concrete battlefield
 cuz i still feel the urge to kill
 cuz snoop still ain't got outta jail
 plus my closest homeboys deceased
 I gotta seek revenge
 but who do I avenge
 sometimes I catch myself overlookin' my true friends
 I'm tryin' to see through all the lies and deceit to make
 intelligent decisions that'll keep me on my feet
 but evil ways make me stray and i get caught up in the same shit
 riskin' my life to represent so enemies know i'm dangerous
 {}
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 As i'm sittin' in my room oil'n up my strap
 i'm thinkin' back on all the different pistols that i've packed
 all the dirt that i've done with different weapons and guns
 and how much fun I had when I was young
 earnin' my stripes one by one
 they added up sin at the scene I didn't realize it then
 but now I understand there's consequences for every action
 Lord could you forgive me for my sins up till today
 but what if I kill again tomorrow does that mean you feel betrayed
 Cuz I can't promise you, that i'll do
 what the bible tells me not to
 If I feel I gots' to ride
 im goin' to ride with or without you
 no disrespect intended
 don't take me for satan's child
 cuz 5-0 got my dirty deeds
 gathered up in the gang files
 Look at my loyalty
 the love that I got for my family
 If anybody could
 I know you would understand me
 So when they call my number
 and I take my final breathe and die
 please forgive me for my sins
 and let my soul rise to the sky
 {}
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 {}
 If enemies lay me down to sleep
 I pray to the lord my so he'll keep
 when i die in this life of hate
 I pray to the lord my soul he'll take
 I lived another day
 now it's time to live another night
 I take it minute by minute
 and hope somehow I do it right
 I gotta fight to keep hope alive
 that snoop will get released
 but it's the red-suited beast
 that gets' the blue suited police
 Societies already got us marked
 as killers, dealers, and thugs
 gang bangers shoot'n them slugs
 drug dealers movin' them drugs
 ain't no love on this side of the tracks
 that's why criminals run in packs
 who else gonna have our motherfuckin' backs
 you think our president ain't a sinner
 he's the cruelist of all
 he's the one, killin' the inncocent with missles and bombs
 while we just up in the street tryin' to maintain human nature
 that have enemies so we gangbang
 Lord if you could shed any light up on this life of mine
 i'd be willing to listen to you at the drop of a dime
 because im suicidal at times
 and at times im homicidal
 livin' on the borderline damper my chances of survival
 {}
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 Livin' that life, this gangbangin' done took it's toll
 on the outside i'm fine but inside i'm outta control
 tryin' to stay outta prison but the streets pursuade my goals
 when I lay down to die will good or evil take my soul
 Lord, I got a question
 will you fogive me for my sins if I don't regret 'em
 cuz sometimes no matter how hard I try, I feel no remorse
 I feel I had to do what I had to do
 but then again maybe it's just the Old-E numbin' the pain
 I dunno 'but send Blackbird my Love
 {}
 If enemies lay me down to sleep
 I pray to the lord my so he'll keep
 when i die in this life of hate
 I pray to the lord my soul he'll take
