man's world lyrics

Nigga, this is a man's world

Lies and rumors, money and hoes
It?s the world that I'm attached to, the world that I know
Influential, never stable in the mental
But clever, spittin' that same shit niggas is into

I'll bleed for the craft if I have to, think rational
Lovin' money and weed, pussy and fast food
Tatoo a dead man's name on my arm
I'm a thug in the street that?s still afraid of his moms

Everyday I watch a player get robbed, player get popped
Tryna drink the pain away and pray that it stop
In the mornin' head straight to the spot, the juice bar
Niggas tried all that other shit and what's the use God?

For the paper, nature takes it too far, perfectionist
Rep the bridge, where everything's foul except the kids
We get it on and contradict livin' long
Though the clock'll still tic when you gone

Now, if you a man, be a man
(You need a plan)
If you fall
(I'ma put you on your feet again)
When you call
(I'ma show you how to eat again)
Been through it all
(I'll show you how to be a friend)

Now, when you in charge be in charge
(You need a squad)
If you bored
(I'ma show you how to be involved)
I give 'em more
(Niggas know they can't see the God)
I can't believe it God
(I gotta eat or starve)

Keep the livest image, high percentage, four in the mornin'
Niggas blitzin' on corners like the line of scrimmage
Convicts turnin' confident
Enter the phase of niggas and they feminine ways

Love my Timberlands, cinnamon suede
Bottles mo proof for all the problems that a nigga go through
It's forever real 'cause some scars could never heal
I'd rather throw the cards in and pray I get a better deal

Guns excite me, keep atleast a hundred wifeys
My duns up in the pens y'all need to write me
Street cadets, alias names and re-arrests
It doesn't take much to know that wrieffer helps relieve the stress

We make moves or get caught for the loot, wild niggas on the block
Look for more to recruit, gettin' chips from an alternate route
But the same breed, it's been twenty-some years now
I'm still lookin' for the same dream

Now, if you a man, be a man
(You need a plan)
If you fall
(I'ma put you on your feet again)
When you call
(I'ma show you how to eat again)
Been through it all
(I'll show you how to be a friend)

Now, when you in charge be in charge
(You need a squad)
If you bored
(I'ma show you how to be involved)
I give 'em more
(Niggas know they can't see the God)
I can't believe it God
(I gotta eat or starve)

In my world police recognize names
Know us niggas by the walk or by the size of their chain
You know the motto, 'We live for the day, like no tomorrow'
We only makin' time for the hoes that swallow

Fuck a role model, I need therapy
Seven nights out the week, jump out my sleep breathin' heavily
Keep my head up, only the strong survive
Livin' in a man's world still belongs to a tribe

Took the family along for a ride, watch 'em eat
Now, I'm movin' with the same cats that'll rock me to sleep
Never close your eyes, learn to roll with the wise
'Cause some niggas'll talk shit and play close to the sides

While I call the shots and stay supportin' the block
We livin' above the law until all of it stops
I still open doors, a thug nigga overall
And if you ain't know then black man go for yours

Now, if you a man be a man
(You need a plan)
If you fall
(I'ma put you on your feet again)
When you call
(I'ma show you how to eat again)
Been through it all
(I'll show you how to be a friend)

Now, when you in charge be in charge
(You need a squad)
If you bored
(I'ma show you how to be involved)
I give 'em more
(Niggas know they can't see the God)
I can't believe it God
(I gotta eat or starve)

Nigga, this is a man's world
Nigga, this is a man's world
Nigga, this is a man's world
Nigga, this is a man's world
