Trick Daddy - Born A Thug lyrics
rate me<BR>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
His mama was a G<br>
And daddy was a G<br>
Ain't nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
His mama was a G<br>
And daddy was a G<br>
But nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
This is a story bout a young nigga<br>
Who's mama was a whore and his daddy was a drug dealer<br>
Ridin' 'round the corner from 'em was the spot<br>
They sold weed, lace, base, heroin and marijuana<br>
<br>
His role model was an older nigga<br>
Who kept a wad of hundreds 'cause he had a whole lot of money<br>
Now keep in mind this is 'round the time that<br>
Miami niggas was really tryin' to put it down<br>
<br>
That's back when the pimp game played out<br>
That next year crack cocaine came out<br>
And it all started in the suburbs<br>
But only rich folks could afford to go and smoke that good dope<br>
<br>
And yo they used to call it free-base<br>
But when it made it to my block, me and my boys called it Crack Rock<br>
We used to cook it up and bag it up and sell 'em<br>
Nickels and dimes to any bitch that was buyin'<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
And when he first hit middle school<br>
He was a typical, ordinary, everyday ass dude<br>
Around the time eighth grade came around<br>
He had done made up his mind, a nigga can't lay down now<br>
<br>
His first job, he was a watch out<br>
He had to scream one time every time the cops hit the block<br>
We used to call him Bo Brown<br>
'Cause when he came around, close shop nigga, shut it down<br>
<br>
Them lil' two-hundreds<br>
That was a lot of money for a young nigga sittin' 'round not doin' nothin'<br>
Plus his mama had a newborn from an old nigga out the hood<br>
Who don't do shit for him<br>
<br>
They go another bill, another mouth to feed<br>
Oh well, yo a nigga couldn't stop there<br>
He gotta keep food in his crib and keep the lights on<br>
Ain't like his daddy's comin' back home<br>
<br>
Now just imagine the role of a thirteen year old<br>
Who playin' head of his household, now that shit's cold<br>
But then again I suppose<br>
You already know how the shit go<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
He advanced from watch out man to lieutenant<br>
And now he got two feet waist deep in it<br>
And he control the whole operation<br>
But it's kinda different 'cause he's dealin' with some stiff competition<br>
<br>
And everybody wants to be buddies<br>
All of a sudden friends but then again all they see is money<br>
And he ain't never too flashy wit it<br>
Not into cars and jewels, just nice clothes and new shoes<br>
<br>
Half of the money went straight to his mama<br>
But the other half, you know, the kid had to keep it stashed<br>
But it's kinda hard to hide drug money<br>
But it's worse bein' a dope but none of this shit's worth dying for<br>
<br>
But when it comes to livin', money's nothin'<br>
Bein' dead is free now tell me, what would you rather be?<br>
Don't tell me, tell it to your child<br>
Make your talk worthwhile and the rest, he'll figure it out<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
Motherfuckin' thug<br>
Nothin' left for him to be but a thug<br>
Motherfuckin' thug<br>
Nigga forced into this shit, damn<br>
Over and over again<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<br>
Shorty's gonna be<br>
Shorty wanna be<br>
So he's gonna be<br>
A straight thug<br>
<br>
Mama was a G<br>
Daddy was a G<br>
Nothin' left for him to be<br>
But a thug<br>
<BR><BR>
<BR>
