Ice Cube - Cold Places lyrics

[Chorus] To all my people goin through it on a daily basis And it seem like the world is full of cold places Keep yo' head up, f** what they said cause you can do it and the man will get you through it I believe that, homey I believe that If I can picture that, I'll bring a picture back [Ice Cube] They say "Gangster, gangster! Tell me how you do it How you get through it and them other n***az blew it" I keep my eye on the prize then pursue it Chase it like a cheetah chuck it out and subdue it So self-educate, n***a don't hate Cause the game I got, is Madden oh-eight f** with Cube, I'm better than YouTube f** with them dudes them n***az is new school The game don't change just the players The rhymes don't change just the f**in rhymesayers (Hahahaha!) They make it up as they go along But I'm goin on 25 years strong The sh** I say might get you through the day Or change your whole life, in a major way The sh** they say, might catch you a case The sh** I say, feel like your birthday [Chorus] [Ice Cube] You know what? Momma said it'd be days like this Straight hell on earth, but come up out the abyss She said "Don't let 'em see you crawl, don't let 'em see you fall All they wanna do is laugh when you tear your drawers" It's a cold world n***a bring a bomber jacket If it's another hustle out there I'ma crack it f** the new dance I'ma learn how to eat Get my mind right, stay up out these f**in streets They keep callin me They keep callin, all the lil' homies keep fallin In them same traps n***az cain't figure out In the fast lane boy but the bridge is out Make my blood boil, get yo' life spoiled Get you in the system, get you in the soil And your funeral was sponsored by Unocal Saw you UVN, n***a digital [Chorus] [Ice Cube] I know, it's f**ed up how they do us Pretend they really care, but then they Jerry Lewis Take that money that was allocated to us Put us in some f**ed up trailers then sue us Watchin Katrina, is worser than Ike & Tina See New Orleans get b**hslapped by FEMA Louisiana got racist-a** politics Free the Jena Six (ni**a FREE THE JENA SIX~!) Your honor, Osama, Obama Even, yo' momma, ain't f**in with my comments They want us to quit, forget And not give a sh** about these sick-a** politics A lunatic is in the White House Make me wanna go do a lick right now But they'll make a n***a bow down in the penitentiary, a billion dollar industry [Chorus] [Ice Cube] I believe that, homey I believe that If I can picture that, I'll bring a picture back
