Lyrics
The Mechanix
Once upon a time there was two niggas
Used to share the same clothes
Fuck the same bitches both niggas moving’ oz
One selling weed one selling coke
Errybody gettin money so wasn’t nobody broke
But ain’t no room for the
Good in this cold world where niggas slide
And that choppa drip like a Jerry curl
Sad sight when I see niggas fnkin’ over girls
(Ahh)
Pussy should never come between friends
(Nope)
And if they let it do then they not real men
(Nope)
Member he slid that door open on dat mini van
Got on yo enemies while you was drivin'
Now When you call him yo number private (ahh)
Ungrateful lil bitch
Hope yo baby mama choke on yo enemy dick
(Nigguh)
Hope dat bitch have yo ass hit (nigguh)
I put my life on the line for ya
(line for ya)
And neva asked for nothin' in return
People don’t keep it one Hunnid (One Hunnid)
Maybe I will never learn
(maybe I will never learn)
They set you up to let you down
Full of lies and betrayals
It happened two to many times
(two to many times) for me to just let it go
When the streets don’t love you back
When the streets don’t love you back
When the streets don’t love you back
When the streets don’t love you back
I pledged my loyalty to these streets
And never made a promise back to me
I sold coke and got the
Cold shoulder in return
Playin' wit fire, I guess it burnt a nigga
(burnt a nigga) cold hearted grave digga
What it turnt a nigga (turnt a nigga)
Cap pealin' ass slide for the fun in it
Never go in the club without my gun in it
(gun in it, Damn)
I don’t trust nobody now
Look him in his eyes shake his hand
Then knock’em down (but)
I’m the king so I wear the crown (Stalin)
Niggas still pushin' white
Still pushin' brown
Niggas mad got a choke hold on the town (ahh)
Still on the same corner I started at
(started at)
Still up in that red Cincinnati hat (Cypress)
Lost a lot of friends
But I don’t really want em back
I’m too loyal they don’t
Deserve nobody like that (ahh)
I put my life on the line for ya
(line for ya)
And neva asked for nothin' in return
Peope don’t keep it One Hunnid (One Hunnid)
Maybe I will never learn
(maybe I will never learn)
They set you up to let you down
Full of lies and betrayals
It happened two to many times
(two to many times) for me to just let it go
When the streets don’t love you back
(what you taught me a long time ago)
When the streets don’t love you back
(That there’s nothing you can do
Nothing you can do)
When the streets don’t love you back
(That there’s nothing you can do
There’s nothing you can do about it)
Pupils Dilated body froze Stiff
Streets nothin' more but a curse than a gift
Tryna drink all the pain away
Wit a whole fifth
But Hennessy don’t help the thought
Of babies gettin' hit we celebrated
Even when mothers was devastated
Names painted
And picture frames all on the pavement
Destined for the dirt
Stay invested in the turf but in the end
All we get is our faces on a shirt
I dedicated most of my life to sellin' white
Killin' my people
Made it hard for me to sleep at night
I broke bread
When my fake friends left me for dead
At first I thought it was demons
Tryna play with my heads
The ones close to me
Soon became ghosts to me
Good thing I learned
From the wise words they spoke to me
I’m only here cause all them
Suckas had a bad aim
The streets taught me ain’t no
Love in dis fuckin' game
I put my life on the line for ya
(line for ya)
And neva asked for nothin' in return
Peope don’t keep it One Hunnid (One Hunnid)
Maybe I will never learn
(maybe I will never learn)
They set you up to let you down
Full of lies and betrayals
It happened two to many times
(two to many times) for me to just let it go
When the streets don’t love you back
(what you taught me a long time ago)
When the streets don’t love you back
(That there’s nothing you can do
Nothing you can do)
When the streets don’t love you back
(That there’s nothing you can do
There’s nothing you can do about it)
