Gotta Get Mine

Mama she used to say, don't live by your knife
Mama she used to say, gotta get out the ghetto
Mama she used to say, morning comes and goes
Mama she don't know, I gotta get mine whoa, gotta get, mine
I'm livin' in the age of di chronic, forty ounce and blunts
The type of dis a women allah know ah stunts
Now I got to wear Versace just to get a gal to watch me
An it ain't no sunshine, how can I get mine?
Why I sell myself for modern day slavery
Now I'm doin' LP's for 5cent royalties
Mama can ya save ya son? All these leeches over me
Feel like gathering my duns, gettin' all our guns
Count it down 3, 2, 1, come down Mad Lion!
(mad lion) yo yo roll a spliff, what, yeah!
Di night is young, We all got our guns
Who's down to go commit a robbery? A robbery,
I gotcha block on lock soliciting private stocks of trees
Direct in boat from di West Indies
Jamaica, experience it just break ya
Smoke it inna ya blunts, Philly leaves are ya paper
I tell it, into my sensimilla place, my bodega
Here I got all type of flavor
Distribution major, no dealer can match me equal
Niggas buy my mixes, sell it as dimes to the people
Mama she used to say, don't live by your knife
Mama she used to say, gotta get out the ghetto
Mama she used to say, morning comes and goes
Mama she don't know, I gotta get mine whoa, gotta get, mine
When I was six I received my nines as a birthday gift
Pray ya Lord if ya see my nines
It's enough to make any grown man cry,
Now mama neva' tell me policeman would arrest me
Even thought I without catch me an den try ti wan' me ?
Dey give up ? swarm me, recruit me to di army guy tell me
I found out these things by my lonely. Well, well
X amount of things lead to see ya get dead
Livin' on dem greed ya get shot, knot dem face
Dem wanna lose dem life an weh say willed argument
Dey body all up pulpit cement, well well.
? get sense in a fuckin'' situation
Everybody know say I man nev' run from provocation
The way things are run now the youth up inna possession
Fuck around an us buck dem inna point on, black Talon
Shotgun ah come from ?? double-action
Got ah dem run-way, ??
Not a fraction
I wish I could a tell you said ya know it nah go happen
When glock ah pop past ya know ya betta flock & keep runnin!
HOOK
That's why me haffi say...
Me buy a gun pon a Monday an' catch a body two minutes before Tuesday
But nash no inna dem gunplay
Me nuh have nuh uzi
Me ratha love me gal, Suzy
So me cool and take it easy inna Jacuizzi
Call me Don .... ??
When me accel like a Honda
Pon deh runway
On deh second meh sail-way!
Like on a ship you have your ups and downs
Enought pety robba would a hold you down
life inna deh ghetto's like a merry-go-round
That's why dem violent and dem lost and found, and unwound
Thank you Mama fi di food whey ya cook fe meh
Thank you mama fe di things whey ya do fe meh
Thank you mama fi di nine months you carry meh
I love you, this lesson is a bit crazy...?
