Realize it ain't the life for me, i done found another hustle Cuz, im so fly Im living life a lot better Still keep a glock in case the jailers wanna hate tonight [Akon - Verse 2] I hate to say it but the people that surrounding me Are way too shady The only people i can trust is my family and my lady All my dogs got guns Ready for action They wont betray me Your the type to run Or to hold my tongue When it gets crazy See i been through this type of thing before Even had trouble with the law On the couch when the smash my door But they wont find the cash stashed under the floor I never could understand it cause I was the one to pull the shortest straw Couldnt live this type of life no more So i had a part of me screamin out [Chorus] (yaaaaa...)
