Pretty Ugly - The Struggle слова песни
[Verse 1: Pretty Ugly]It started when the hotshots went past my spotPolice used to knockin for blocks, it had me wantin to clockThe one day I got proposition, they had me trippinI put my man onto what I was gettin and where we flippinI dogged two pairs of sneaks in the first weekI couldn`t sleep, cuz I was afraid to miss a beatNow my phase done passed and I`m in the game deepThe smokers love me, watch for the cops and my peepsMy mom kinda new, and so did the law tooRespect was due, so I chill when they come throughI calm down my crew, put a skirt on the brewI always miss my curfew but what the fuck would you do?With 5000 a night, off each G I made a tre`The block was warm as May and gettin hotter every dayWith no dues to pay, wasn`t a way I could loseBut my last week of school my ol` head was on the news[Hook] - 2XIn order to eat, you gon` struggleI ain`t gon` lieWhile you eat you gon` struggleDon`t ask me whyLife is all a struggle then you die, yeahIs it fair? Nah - Does life care? Nah[Verse 2: Pretty Ugly]Now I`m back where I started, couple grand and a stashWrote my man down what happened, told him watch his assAfter this court case pass, we gon` try it againUntil then I made friends with a pad and a penI wrote about current affairs and issues I was havinAll the coke I was baggin and all the pussy I was tagginEvery rhyme gave me the chills, cuz everything I wrote was realNow who the fuck thought I`d get me a deal?I grew up in Philadel, 2-3 to 4-6It`s survival of the fit, I`d flip a brick and get richBut rough times danced along, but money was the songBut I couldn`t get it on, cuz my ol` head was goneI went to visit him, he said paper stay strongWatch my new born, I`ma be here real longBut I gotta get mine, he said, "Naw get signed"Didn`t know I was livin live, till I had a decent time[Hook] - 2X[Verse 3: Pretty Ugly]Now two years done passed, I came home with to cashTried to catch up with the past but the streets is movin fastI had homies, but they left me lonelyEither they fell for a case, or they fell for a tenderonieI was stuck in between a dream and a drug sceneWasn`t born with mean but I learned how to DI lace a lot, five times a day non-stopBut I miss huggin the block and spendin a knotMoney was callin, felt myself Riq` I was fallinI started robbin, cuz I couldn`t stand starvinAnd then I got shot two times in two spotsI almost went in shock because the blood wouldn`t stopI ain`t gon` lie, I ain`t ready to dieI ain`t ready to fry, but I`m ready to rideSome flip bricks and get rich, some stay broke and flip burgersI`m gon` get further, write murder or get murdered[Hook] - 2XAye.. P.U., High & MightyYou know, Philadel, still reign supremeKnow who y`all heard ya first gangsta rap fromWe started all this, it`s our turnAye...
