Twista - Dirty Game lyrics

Life, pain [Hook] It's so hard to survive in this world of pain I feel like I'm goin' crazy so I'ma shell my brain My n***as out here droppin' off over rocks and thangs Mama never told me life was such a dirty game [Lifty Stokes] I hold my Glock to my chest, yes my steel is cold I pray to God to come to rescue me and save my soul I reminisce on my past life Ever since I was a young shorty I didn't act right Live for the street life Yellin', "What it be like?" n***a we Folks Money makin' hustlaz from the Westside and it shows In these past years, sh** it's been a hell of 25 Back in '91, I didn't even think I'd be alive I was sellin' j**elry to rocks, and rocks to weed Off at the comfort zone G with a fifth of T's and B's Ready to do whatever, young with a pocket full of cheddar No thoughts of stackin' just ballin', picture me fallin' n***a never In this lifetime But I had to grieve for awhile Cause a n***a fell off hard but I got my a** back on the grind And hit the streets like a mad man, goin' against the grain With dried tears on my face from the pain of this dirty game Hook 2x's [Todd Nitty] Fresh out the pen and can't maintain Wanna go and hit the block, be on the same thang Tryin' to serve some cain up in this dirty game Cause you did a lil' bit, think ain't sh** changed You wrong boy, these shorties out here misled You f** around and catch a bullet in yo forehead Ya heard me? This ain't the 80's where you get a nickel sack and a hoodrat A 40-ounce of Red Bull and blow yo wig back n***a f** that, this the year 2-G Where the toughest muthaf**a get left 6-feet deep So don't sleep, cause the scariest n***a'll pull the trigga Put 2 in 300 pounds, so that makes you a k**a Oh really, could you be that silly To think you gon' take over a block where I been committed - n***a forget it Don't make me have to blow yo brains In this f**ed up world, this f**ed up life, this f**ed up game Hook 2x's [Twista] Hey nug, for some reason at night I can't sleep When I lay down, I keep tossin' and turnin' There's somethin' wrong but I don't know what's wrong with me Eyes burnin' Cause sometimes I burst into tears when ain't nobody home with me Stress from thoughts of survival just rushed my dome quickly Y'all better come on get me Cause I bout to do somethin' so muthaf**in' drastic Instead of writin' essays like grabbin' SK's With one of the best ways that I know to feed my family Cause y'all ain't foolin' me Y'all people plannin' a way for my people to read my eulogy I see what y'all bogus a** doin', y'all plannin' on hurtin' me Used to be crucifyin' or burnin' me Now you eliminatin' paper currency Terrorizin' with technology And that Y2K sh**, I don't know why you play with the chosen guys The wool ain't no longer pulled over my eyes Gots to get some scratch and I gotta get it soon We about to be doomed Do somethin' for the kids before I go to my tomb Gotta bust this thang and maybe then thangs gon' change Tryin' to check mine, cause all of it on y'all I can't blame Maintain, it's a strange game At times you gotta throw blows for the gold It's a long road, some of us do sh** despite losin' our soul Got cold flows but it's strange, I still can't get no change Bout to be insane Tryin' to pay the bills but still straight causin' pain It's a dirty game Hook 2x's Dirty - dirty - dirty game Dirty game Such a dirty game
