Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Where you from, where your gun?
Pacing around
Stay awake, know I got a play to make
And moving across the room
Stay awake, know I got a play to make
Pacing around
Gotta stay awake, know I got a play to make
Let's move all across the room (yeah)
I can die tonight, so today, I'm finna go get paid
I'm the violent type, so don't play 'less you want your grave
We was in the hood, rent was late, ain't have Section 8'
Had a .38 in the eighth, moved on 68th
Then they put us out
We was sleepin' on my auntie couch (pacing around)
Then she put us out, stomach growling
Stealing from the Ralph's (and moving across the room)
If I pull it out, I'ma send a nigga to the clouds (pacing around)
Watch them bullets bounce (let's move all across the room)
Fell in love with guns, I love the sound, yeah
From the sun up 'til the sun is down, yeah
Tryna run it up, I'm runnin' wild, yeah
From the sun up 'til the sun is down, yeah
Tryna run it up, I'm runnin' wild, yeah
I don't fear no man, only Allah got the upper hand
Lost too many friends, to the down the streets, I can't pretend
That I'll make amends, I know that the blood gon' spill again
Hangin' on them corners, same as hangin' from a ceiling fan
When I see my fans, I'm too paranoid to shake they hands
Clutchin' on the blam, don't know if you foe or if you fam
I don't got a plan, I'm just out here thuggin' 'til the end, yeah
Niggas know I'll never fold or bend, yeah
Pacing around
And moving across the room
Pacing around
Let's move all across the room
From the sun-up 'til the sun is down, yeah (pacing around)
Tryna run it up, I'm running wild, yeah (and moving across the room)
From the sun-up 'til the sun is down, yeah (pacing around)
Tryna run it up, I'm running wild, yeah (let's move all across the room)
I am tired, tired, over again
I am tired, tired, over again
Tired, over again
