Big Shasta - They Don't Know What The Game Is About lyrics

[Talking: Lil' Ron] Yea... You betta learn what the game got to offer Before you try to jump foot first in it You gotta watch what you do around certain people Gotta peep yo' surroundings Watch for snake n***as, snake b**hes Know what I'm sayin... [Lil' Ron] A lot of people got crooked ways Cuz they was broke and they couldn't really make no pay I knew a dude that worked at the super market Makin minimum wage, livin poor and starvin He stopped by my house and told me he was on his a** Then he asked, could I afford to front a half I wasn't worried about him tryna play a n***a I knew where he stayed, So I go and spray the n***a I ran in and out and laid down the rules Made sure he understood everything was cool After 3 hours he pulled in my drive way With all my money dog, this musta been a great day But somethin wasn't right, that was just too quick I found out this b**h was tryna be slick This lil trick had a mic taped to his chest So instead I hit him in the head, not the chest [Chorus: Yung Sears] 2X They dont know what the game about Got caught up short Because you tried to save a drought The streets is hot Live with yo' eyes and ears Mouth closed, on ya toes and you won't get k**ed n***a [Big Shasta] Now see life is a big game, Y'all playin to win Would you risk ya own life if it meant savin ya friend Would you be a millionaire if you woulda been savin ya ends Are you really that real n***a that you claimin you been Would you still act the same to ya friends Even though you made some change Or have you changed now that you havin things But I know what, I can promise you this Man, life is too short and ain't promisin sh** Look, you never know what tomorrow will bring Thats why I got this mo' wet to drown my sorrows away Cuz when tomorrow's today and yesterday is last week Somebody could blast me For what reason, Dont ask me Tryna be flashy, but game run out the respect Show none, and get that chain snatched off ya neck But hoe a** n***as do hoe a** sh** And hoes dont get whatever, act like ya know that sh** [Chorus] 2X [Yung Sears] It's a shame But who's to blame You gotta stack yo change And try ya best to get paid, yea And if you dont know what the streets'll do Stay out of harms way cuz it could happen to you And you and you or me and the rest of my crew Just handle your business and do what you do My mama told me that life is hard Stay focused, thank God and you'll make it far But through the pain and scars, I seen it all But one minute you on top and then you stumble and fall [Chorus] 3X
