Tank - Street Life lyrics

rate me

It's amazing how your life can change

It's plan and simple as it can bring things

Take prespective before it comes your way

I'm am so thankful to God for this day

Cause for a long time the streets were my home

Slanging hard banging hard got me known

But the reason to live Ive been shown

I gotta be around to see my baby boy grow

[Chorus:]

Street life no more I'm throwing in the towel

Street life no more I gotta son now

Street life no more I gotta make it out

Street life no more (oh yeah yeah)

Street life no more I'm throwing in the towel

Street life no more I gotta show little man

What my life is really about

One more dealing and I'm outta this thing

need the paper so that I can maintain

I'ma fine a job hopefully something that pays

It's hard to walk away from this figure I made

Gab the money this don't look right no more

That nigga right there I think I seen him before

Good thing he didn't make a sell or buy

He gave me four years I'll be out by the he's five

[chorus]

Baby don't cry I'll be home soon

I let a gang of money in the safe for you

Come write I'll make it right through

I just got his picture of his first day in preschool

He's gonna be smart just like his mom

I commend you black queen for holding on

How many days I think I'ma cry

When I get out nomore street life Oh yeah

[chorus: until fade]
