Cheh

[Styles P]
This shit is crazy
Crazy

[Akon]
It´s one of those things man
You gotta experience to know what I´m talkin´ about
Ha ha
It´s where the goin´ get rough

[Styles P]
Akon

[Akon]
The tough stay tough

[Styles P]
Styles P

[Akon]
Up front
Let´s go
Konvict

[Akon]
We in too deep to turn back now D

[Styles P]
Sure is

[Akon]
Watch yourself
Before you get
Blown away

[Styles P]
You know where I come from
The place where your fate is a mic
Or a bull or a dum dum
A jail cell a pine box
And brothers is dumb young
Young boys
Still bustin´ guns for the slum
that they come from
Cops is the only ones they gon´ run from
That´s it
They puttin´ they hood up
But 9 out of 10 of us ain´t got good luck
You gon´ ride on a man and catch 25
Or get hit and get sent to the other side
You lose both sides of the coin
So me I play the hood baby
Not in the
Mama got a little church I could join
But I didn´t go yet
Man got a mosque I could join
But I didn´t go yet
Cool with the devil on my back
I´m in cold sweats
Bout to do some dirt
In some dirty black old sweats
If you known you shoulda shown the way
Mosta the hood bout to get blown away

[Akon]
Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts´ll never last long here
If you ain´t man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you´ll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin´ to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin´ not to get blown away

See I ain´t never shot nobody
But I´m known for fightin´
So when I strike man
You´ll think you been struck by lightning
Shouldn´t have to prove myself by killin´ a nigga
Even a child could figure out how to pull the trigga
Retaliation only takes anger mixed with passion
So you target in the distance and keep on blastin´
They say guns don´t kill people, people do
So when you´re hit man
You feel that shit the evils do
Can´t see myself get beat down
My eyes swollen
Mom´s cryin´ they don´t know what happened
My pride´s stolen
If I ain´t got my heat then I got a blade
That hit ya off

Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts´ll never last long here
If you ain´t man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you´ll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin´ to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin´ not to get blown away

Keep my eye out for jakes
Ears to the streets
Other eye out for snakes
And these scandalous freaks
If we ain´t on good terms
Don´t bother to speak
Don´t smile and try to spark a convo with me
Same thing´ll make ya laugh it´ll make ya cry
This quiet nigga, he´ll take ya life
Hate for it to be the world´s sacrifice
If somebody else could travel
Through the tunnel of life
Cause I´m that type of guy I´ll be there
When you´re ridin´
But I´ll stay to myself
So if you see me out there
with a bear we fightin´
Then nigga go help the bear

Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts´ll never last long here
If you ain´t man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you´ll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin´ to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin´ not to get blown away
