I never had much, ran with a bad bunch |
| [00:23.19] |
Little skinny kid sneakin weed in my bag lunch |
| [00:25.78] |
And all through Junior High, we was just gettin by |
| [00:28.43] |
And drivebys robbed my homies of their young lives |
| [00:31.12] |
I never did cry, and even though I had |
| [00:33.45] |
pain in my heart, I was hopeless from the start |
| [00:36.13] |
They couldn\'t tell me nothin, they all tried to help to help me |
| [00:39.10] |
The marijuana had my mind gone it wasn\'t healthy |
| [00:41.44] |
I travelled places, caught cases, what a ill year |
| [00:43.86] |
I felt the pain and the rain but I\'m still here |
| [00:46.49] |
Never did like the police, let the whole world know |
| [00:49.27] |
Now I gets no peace, cause they chasin me down |
| [00:51.76] |
And facin me now, what do I do? |
| [00:53.88] |
These thangs that a Thug goes through |
| [00:55.68] |
And still I rise so keep ya head up, and make ya mind strong |
| [01:00.01] |
It\'s a struggle every day but you gotta hold on |
| [01:02.06] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [01:04.02] |
Be strong, hold on |
| [01:05.62] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [01:06.64] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [01:08.51] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [01:10.35] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [01:11.67] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [01:13.70] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [01:15.55] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [01:17.09] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [01:18.95] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [01:20.79] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [01:22.20] |
There\'s, never a good day, cause in my hood they |
| [01:24.78] |
let they AK\'s pump strays where the kids play |
| [01:27.89] |
And every Halloween, check out the murder scene |
| [01:30.29] |
Can\'t help but duplicate the violence seen on the screen |
| [01:32.79] |
My homies dyin \'fore they get to see they birthdays |
| [01:35.29] |
These is the worst days, sometimes it hurts to pray |
| [01:38.03] |
And even God turned his back on the ghetto youth |
| [01:40.58] |
I know that ain\'t the truth, sometimes I look for proof |
| [01:43.08] |
I wonder if heaven got a ghetto, and if it does |
| [01:45.38] |
Does it matter if you blood or you cuz |
| [01:47.76] |
Remember how it was, the picnics and the parties in theprojects |
| [01:50.71] |
Small time drinkin gettin high with them armies |
| [01:53.51] |
Just another knucklehead kid from the gutter |
| [01:55.85] |
I\'m dealin with the madness, raised by a single mother |
| [01:58.56] |
I\'m tryin to tell you when it\'s on |
| [02:00.22] |
You gotta keep your head to the sky and be strong, most of allhold on |
| [02:03.63] |
Hold on,hold on,be strong, hold on |
| [02:06.30] |
Be strong, hold on |
| [02:07.20] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [02:08.44] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [02:10.58] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [02:12.32] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [02:13.74] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [02:15.65] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [02:17.59] |

| [02:19.05] |
Hold on, be strong, hold on |
| [02:20.90] |
Be strong, hold on,be strong |
| [02:23.06] |
When it\'s on it\'s on |
| [02:26.78] |
I know them ain\'t tears comin down your face |
| [02:30.33] |
Wipe your eyes |
| [02:32.60] |
In this world |
| [02:34.46] |
Only the strong survive y\'know |
| [02:37.26] |
Hmm, I know it\'s hard out there |
| [02:40.77] |
Welfare |
| [02:42.81] |
AIDS, earthquakes |
| [02:45.43] |
Muggings, carjackings |
| [02:47.18] |
Yeah we got problems |
| [02:50.25] |
But believe me when I tell you |
| [02:52.23] |
Things always get better |
| [02:55.53] |
God don\'t like ugly |
| [02:57.44] |
And God don\'t like no quitters |
| [03:01.31] |
You know what Billie Holiday said bay-bee |
| [03:04.05] |
God bless the child that can hold his own |
| [03:06.80] |
Y\'know? |
| [03:08.37] |
You got to stand strong |
| [03:10.54] |
And when these bustas try to knock you out your place |
| [03:13.62] |
You stand there to they face |
| [03:15.79] |
Tell em hold on, and be strong |
| [03:20.11] |
The game don\'t stop |
| [03:23.31] |
This here is black main |
| [03:26.47] |
If you don\'t never leave nothin, learn one thing |
| [03:29.95] |
It don\'t stop, til the casket drop |
| [03:35.14] |
Thug, for Life... feel me? |
| [03:38.91] |
All my homeboys and my homegirls, stay strong |
| [03:42.88] |
When things get bad, especially come the first and thefifteenth |
| [03:46.65] |
Stay strong, and stay ballin, hold on |
| [03:51.35] |
I\'ll catch y\'all at the next life, we in traffic |
