L-BURNA AKA LAYZIE BONE - Intro: It's Not A Game lyrics

rate me

Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah)

L-Burna (L-Burna baby)

It's not a game (it's not a game)

Uhh, what?

Layzie Bone bringin it to ya like (what what)

Where I'm from it's cutthroat

Grimy is the way we live and whinos is dopefiends

Occupyin an abandoned buildin, smokin in the alleyway

Across from where the children play

Bullets ain't got no names on 'em but they flyin around the stray

Chasin after the innocent ones when the wicked ones they goin hard

Tell me why is it like this dawg, why the ghetto leave me permanent scars?

No time for education, we hustlin just to eat

Scramblin tryin to make it man, it is hectic on these streets

The fiend is what they issue out, tell me what yo' issue about

The landlord want his money now but the landlord 'bout to kick you out

Baby needs some Pampers too, plus a can of Similac

She blew that money smokin crack, why you think she seem like that?

Damn my story grim like that, and it's always been like that

Did the Lord take my blessings away? If he did, can I win 'em back?

Hope he got a plan for me and I pray he don't forget my name

14 years old I'm already knowin life is not a game

Pain and this agony, best friends backstabbin me

You don't wanna see me come up, y'all niggaz just want to laugh at me

But y'all don't know the half of me, if you did you wouldn't judge me

Would everybody be diggin a thug when a thug be livin lovely?

And I know because I made it out, but I musta made a U-trun

I'm right back where I started dawg, and ain't none of y'all concerned

This time I got bail money if I have to move that white again

Lock me up throw away the key and I know y'all ain't gon' write again

Standin on my own two, dyin with my boots on

Ready for whatever come my way if I'm forced to face the truth holmes

In and out of group homes, they say Little Lay's defiant

But I'm searchin tryin to find my way, lookin for some guidance

My role model's the dopeman, pimps killers and thieves

They say these streets, is the way so I guess this is the life I lead

Speedin up a one-way, the wrong way, from which I came

Switchin lanes in the fast lane, feel my pain, it's not a game
