Nothing Is Promised

Now where my hustlers at, where my killers at
Where my niggas at who fall flat and bounce back
It don't matter if you ride around in '07 or old school
Long as you on big shoes and shine like a bunch of jewels
I'm a G, so I ride with a bunch of tools
A street cat, you peep that we all just a bunch of fools
You ain't no real D-boy, you can't juke through the drought
Never had to task for it, run up in your mama house
Well I haven't, shawty that's a fucked up feelin'
They was workin' with them folks, so them pigs start squealin'
On the blunts as we were cheerin', now they tryna make a livin'
Violate the G code, then them gangstas start killin'
Listen dog, I'm a pitbull, I kill a pickanese
I know the streets cold, so I carry down a freeze
To blow your brains out, I try to make your head sneeze
Mighta cold brain freeze, gorilla so it G

Nothing is promised today
Things can fade away
Be careful where you walkin' and you're talkin' in your sleep
We can hear you from a mile away
The streets could talk to me

Gritty gritty, get it while the gettin' good
Get it, get your gun, shit it, go to get it
I get all in that bay with it
I'ma eat tonight, I ain't tryna play with it
I might get the Glock, put all in your bay with it
What's the use of buyin' shit that won't show
In an Austin Martin coupe, same color as the dope
And I'm hangin' out the roof with the pistol on the floor
With the ash and black seats, same color as the

I'm on some G shit, roll with a G clique
Nine piece on each hip, seventeen in each clip
And we them niggas you don't really wanna beef with
Boyz N The Hood, whole Block Ent

We do this for the streets, so we stickin' to the elements
Gotta see them niggas stop playin' with my intelligence
Thuggin' and it's evident, ever since '96
I been on the block gettin' money, no promises

Nothing is promised today
Things can fade away
Be careful where you walkin' and you're talkin' in your sleep
We can hear you from a mile away
The streets could talk to me
Nothing is promised today
Things can fade away
Be careful where you walkin' and you're talkin' in your sleep
We can hear you from a mile away
The streets could talk to me

If you did a bid and you held it down on the yard
Five years up out the game and came back like Jeff George
If you never snitched or switched sides like a bitch
Or tricked off on a bitch even when you had the shit

Gangsta like me, the code of the street is what we live by
Boys'll say anything to get by
Hustle for profit, I whip it, I rock it
Truck jumpin' out the socket 'til them folks come knockin'

Big D, you'll see, ain't no disrespectin' me
Pay your dues, lose you lose, all these rules in the street
Everybody paid in full, now it ain't no time to sleep
Been real, been trill, got the kill with the heat

O to the O, D to the Y, how he flow, fly he so
Been gettin' money, nigga never go broke
I don't get front, I buy my dope
Keep a nine millimeter by me close, I'm still in the slums
Ain't shit promised in the hood where I come from

Nothing is promised today
Things can fade away
Be careful where you walkin' and you're talkin' in your sleep
We can hear you from a mile away
The streets could talk to me
Nothing is promised today
Things can fade away
Be careful where you walkin' and you're talkin' in your sleep
We can hear you from a mile away
The streets could talk to me
