You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead?   Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight?   Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight?   Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try?   Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die?      Check it, I grew up a fuckin' screw up   Got introduced to the game, got a ounce and fuckin' blew up   Choppin' rocks overnight   The nigga Biggie Smalls tryin' ta turn into the black Frank White      We had to grow dreads to change our description   Two cops is on the milk box missin'   Show they toes you know they got stepped on   A fist full of bullets a chest full of Teflon      Run from the police picture that, nigga I'm too fat   I fuck around and catch a asthma attack   That's why I bust back, it don't phase me   When he drop, take his glock, and I'm Swayze   Summer break, my escape, sold the glock, bought some weight   Laid back, I got some money to make, motherfucker      You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead?   Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight?   Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight?   Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try?   Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die? It's so mean      But still I'm havin' memories of high speeds, when the cops crashed   As I laugh pushin' the gas when my glocks blast   We was young, and we was dumb but we had heart   In the dark when we survived through the bad parts      Many dreams is what I had, and many wishes   No hesitation in extermination of these snitches   And these bitches they still continue to per sue me   A couple of movies now the whole world tryin' to screw me      Even the cops tried to sue me   So what can I do but stay true, sippin' 22's a brewin'   Now the media's tryin' to test me got the press askin' questions   Tryin' to stress me      Misery is all I see, that's my mind's state   My history with the police is shakin' the crime rate   Ma main man had 2 strikes, slipped, got arrested and flipped   He screamed 'Thug Life' and emptied the clip   Got tired of runnin' from the motherfuckin' police      You know, I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead?   Why am I fighting to live, if I'm just living to fight?   Why am I trying to see, when there ain't nothing in sight?   Why am I trying to give, when no one gives me a try?   Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die?
