CJ Fly - Ernee lyrics
rate meFt. Dirty Sanchez
(Intro: Biggie)
Ya don't need a million to look like a million, nahwimsayn?
So ya don't really need the money but at the same time
As I was sayn, it's so hard growin' up in the hood, people don't really understand
Errybody got their mom's & they pops & they got they catholic schools
& they got their brothas & their lil dog Scruffy
In they backyard, but it's not like that in Brooklyn
How is it in Brooklyn? It's haaard!
(Intro: CJ Fly)
This is dedicated to all my ghetto men, & lady friends
Those in the hood that ain't doin' what they should
& I recall this one, the incompatible capital?
(Verse: CJ Fly)
Yo eva since I was a snot-nose
I grew up close to Kosciusko
Got mad ho's that got mad low if ya had known
Same wars sneakin' thru back doors with they backs on
My back yo, bet ya got played like banjo's
I admit it, I'm an asshole
Mess yo day up like bad jokes, or bad Joe no bad shows
I think it's best ya know five o's, El Diablo
Keep one eye closed till yo shine grows yo fine soul
The pines roll & my minds blown
I meditate the elevated to anotha fuckin' time zone
Fly in the astral planes, but still I have to train
If no one gets the picture then that must mean that ya can't be framed, I know ya think that life is sweet, sweet
Not in these streets, streets when ya see blood up on the concrete
Been workin' on these projects & these projects where I'm from
Bed Sty, Brooklyn, life ain't promised where I'm from
I'm from the slums where ya don't run son
Live by the gun, die by the gun
Sum' catch the street smarts & sum' dumb
Sum'of them feel me but sum' numb
All I can say is, one luv to the young thugs gettin' their lungs strung
(Hook)
Eva since a kid all I wanted to do is play
Got a lil older, found out about the game
Ain't care bout the fame all I wanted was a name
Dreamin' big eva since I was a shawty
Eva since a kid all I wanted to do is play
Got a lil olda, found out about the game
Ain't care bout the name all I wanted was the fame
Dreamin' big eva since I was a shawty
(Verse 2: Dirty Sanchez)
They been like dirty is this real life shit, oh yeah
I'm just a cool laid back nigga, no beach chair
Dirty San from Brooklyn, what is not clear
& my people interfere cuz they're not scared
Lil kids kick rocks with miss-matched socks
It hurt to kick it, drinkin' quarter waters
Money is liquid, been lookin' fo' the golden ticket
Them April showers fooled me, all month livin' gloomy
Flowers may neva bloom
Black petunia, tune your radios into the radio-activist
Throwing up Path-o, I been livin' on the edge
My legs are danglin' off of a ledge, fuck school, I seek knowledge
God mind, it takes one to know who to acknowledge
Got these suicidal thoughts like Christopher Wallace
That's that, do or die mentality
Women that call me sweet, end up with bad cavities
Sumebody call the pope, Beast Coast about calamity
Just cuz you're my neighbor, that don't mean that we're close
Eyes open, look close into the future
To my Mexicanos truchas or Medusa
Ya gone face these streets flooded with snakes & leaches
& they can suck me, I been corrupted
By the creamin' peaches, I'm mutant leavin' em speechless
Lookin' fo' the top but we don't know where the peak is
Fuck yo weakness, yo weekend, forty seven speakin'
(Hook)
Eva since a kid all I wanted to do is play
Got a lil older, found out about the game
Ain't care bout the fame all I wanted was a name
Dreamin' big eva since I was a shawty
Eva since a kid all I wanted to do is play
Got a lil olda, found out about the game
Ain't care bout the name all I wanted was the fame
Dreamin' big eva since I was a shawty
