Lyrics
LIFE OF CRIME
*I spent my whole life up to no good takin what I could I know nothing good is ever gonna come my way
Now I try picking up the pieces of a poor mans life and I don?t know how much more I can take
A long time ago left out in the cold a boy all alone about ten years old
With nothing more than common sense left to get by
Momma passed away and daddy?s just gone I guess this means that I?m on my own
I think that?s about the 1rst time I got high
Now I?m getting high on everything except life , life brings me down so I gotta get up right?
Even though I know I?ll only go so far before I?ll want to quit trying
Cause when you got nothing and can?t get anything & nothing is all you?ve ever been
You?ve got no choice but to turn to a life of crime
*
I used to be an addict now I hustle to them fools tried to be a nice guy but nice guys loose
Spent a good bit of my life on the wrong side
Buying instead of selling always listening instead of telling either way through the eyes of the law I?m still a felon
So I might as well make a little change while I?m facing time
Facing time in a system for a crime with no victim old habits are hard to break should?ve kicked?m
Helping myself and my people to get by
Cause if I don?t it together shit?ll never get better so I do what I gotta do it doesn?t matter , whether
Or not it?s legal with out it id be better off dead
*
Now I?m hustlin to get by hittin the trees getting all juiced up like that shit was fresh squeezed
What some may call a life of crime
What you call a crime I call makin a livin cause the best things in life you gotta take they?re not givin
I feel each day I?m running out of time
*
