Nate Dogg - The Game lyrics

[Intro] Yeah (He so cold) That's right (He so cold) Get money make money (He so cold) Spend money watch money go (He so cold) [Chorus: Nate Dogg] x2 The game (The game) Keeps on calling (Keeps on calling) Callin' You (You, You, You) [Verse 1: Ric-A-Che] I can recall my share of days of being broke (it was hard) Did everything from laundering to selling dope You couldn't cope nope Threw me out your house and cussed me out Ain't lost no love for you though cause i was down and out I know i took the wrong route at times and chose crimes Got paid for the nickel and dimes i cleaned 9's Stuck with ? in denial about my drug use Brews and blunts My days was messed up in my younger youth Living my life was hard Supporting myself was harder Especially when u got a son and daughter who calls you father Just imagine if you was the last person living Probably still wouldn't be free taking these mental pistol whippings [Chorus] x2 [Verse 2: Ric-A-Che] My younger days was the best i was a mess I must confess caused my mama stress running with the rest Having to settle for less ? My education and my dreams of having success Wasn't compatible with others or the best dressed Few friends, family members who loved me to d**h See it was something bout the streets that drove me to em Developed a close relationship with them felt that i knew em At times even though they turned they backs on me I find myself runnin back to em like a close homie And my momma it seem like she don't even know me But she never turned her back on me Always loved me and been there for me And she told me [Chorus] 2x [Verse 3: Ric-A-Che] When i wake up in the morning (he so cold) In the evening (he so cold) Even at night (he so cold) When i'm out in the hood (he so cold) When i'm up in the street (he so cold) When there's nowhere to go (he so cold) When your words are so cold (he so cold) Hey! (Hey!) ? Kiss my son and my daughter Thanks for the letters that you sent me and the money orders At least it shows me that somebody out there thinking bout me Seem like you, granny, and ya mama the only ones to write me I'd like to thank my auntie ? for supporting me all these years Cause all i gave you was headache, heartache, and tears Hope one day i turn that frown into a smile When i get the chance, im gonna turn my life around But until then... [Chorus] 4x
