A Gangster and a Gentleman

歌词
I said Gangstas ride
Gentlemen live your life
Cause Gangstas die
It's only a matter of time
My pops came from Bed Stuy, my mom came from Africa
I'm more a ************* if you know what I mean
They hooked up in the '70's when liquor and ****** was heavy
And had me in Corona, Queens
By the time I was seven my mom left my pop
Then we moved to the south side of Yonkers, New York
Then my mom remarried, had my little brother Gary
My sister a year later, let me gather my thoughts
By the time I was nine I was outta my mind
My step pops didn't like me beat me outta my mind
Ten and eleven the same I never would change
He still had to hit me, aggravate a little *************
Still wearin' Skippys
Garf had Adidas and Pumas, I could a had a pair
My mommy said wait 'til Chris**as but I needed em sooner
If you heard I was broke dawg it wasn't a rumor
I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
I said Gangstas ride
Gentlemen live your life
Cause Gangstas di
It's only a matter of time
It was 1986 and I was twelve years old
That's right around the time when crack came out
It was the best thing that happened to me
I swear to God cause I was gettin everything that I was askin about
First we started off baggin up, me and garf
Then *************t start addin up, we gettin smart
Now we on Broadway, coppin our own base
Bring it home and put it in bottles, send us a rottle
Drink an OE and scramble like it wasn't tomorrow
I'm gettin kicked out of Junior High, thinkin I'm grown
Got bust with the yellow rabbit
And I had every color dealt we was gettin it on
I was out robbin Mexicans six in the morn'
Mom said I'd had to ep again, rip it I'm gone
************* get a little loony and grown, soup in the dome
************* me up worst when I went to the group home
I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
I said Gangstas ride
Gentlemen live your life
Cause Gangstas die
It's only a matter of time
I'm leavin out a lotta *************t, ************* it's too real
My alcoholic backround, the welfare motels
Abuse that I had to take struggle at my mom's recruit
How the ************* I'm gon bomb wit you
And the cases I got up to date told you that I bust a eight
My *************s I can't name, outta state (My *************s ************* with weight)
Little brother gone but I got a baby angel
You ****** with a dirty name, don't let these *************s change you
The present's what you get
And the past is what make the man future
I can't tell you I ain't God or lil' Superman
No there ain't a 'S' on my chest, but it's a 'D' on my block (D Blok)
And said life the deepest lesson is death
I'm determined and I'm disciplined and destined to rep
I'm a Gangsta and a Gentleman, Panero the best
When I pass I'm like gas, mother******s
Cause I'm a leave a stain that you'll never forget
I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
I said Gangstas ride
Gentlemen live your life
Cause Gangstas die
It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
