[Intro: Freeway]
Don't even ask me the reason...
[Verse 1: Freeway]
Yeah I know, you hear Freeway everywhere you go
Before rap, you seen Freeway everywhere you at
You can vouch, he move yayo, heavy with the crack
Now I'm in there like Prego with the ROC, thick like Legos with mack
Now I do doughnuts on the cops, keep cradles of stacks
And you now when you hot when niggas hate on ya tracks
And you know when you shot when bullets come out ya back
For words coming out your mouth, watch the way you rat
Cause I'm from the streets and you'll hate the way I act
With a SK, Nine or a Dillinger, pick the heat
Mad cause I lounge in a 8 Cylinder, pick a beat
Fuck it up, holla at Julio, get it checked
My squad do circles like Hula-hoops with ya freaks
Send her home after giving us neck, you can't sleep
Wonder why ya girlfriend not giving you sex
Same nigga you told "Can't stop hustlin'" won't eat, uh!
[Chorus: Omillio Sparks]
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
[Verse 2: Young Chris]
Yo, since a buck, I been a knucklehead (Knucklehead)
Half of the stuff you said, went in one and out the other ear (Other ear)
You break ya neck for what I asked for (Asked for)
Pops wasn't around, one of the reasons why I'm hustlin' now (As we speak)
One of the reasons why you strugglin' now
With three on your own, workin' night shift and leavin' us home (Leavin' us home)
It's cool mom, I just couldn't finish school, mom (School, mom)
Cause of rappin', cause of that, you finna move, mom (Move, mom)
Boy make moves, mom (Soon, mom)
Trying to get us away from them nosey neighbors and the boys in blue, mom (True, mom)
But I remember them times, no food in the crib
But nobody take timeout schoolin' the kids
In school with the kids, they got they Timbs on, buttered up (It wasn't right)
I'm up in there with my slim's on, button-ups (It's alright)
But they ain't never clown me, they see the pain up in me
I had a little Sugar Shane up in me, uh, yeah!
[Chorus: Omillio Sparks]
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
[Verse 3: Beanie Sigel]
Why that cat gotta be pushin' them Bentley's (Uh)
Back to back like that, cause God meant me
You little dirty punks ain't ready for the boy
Long 430 chunks, eatin' 70 more
What makes you say that, is it cause I'm laidback?
Spinnin' through them Wheels of Fortune like Sajak
Yo, pump your brakes, scrap, I only spit it for y'all
And niggas like my nigga Mark eatin' space-packs
Y'all niggas want me R.I.P
But I'm CEO, I remember I use to CCC
Cop, Cook and Collect
My nigga Kyle used to cook it the best
And for you crooked cops, I got a 40 cal that'll cook up ya chest
Paralysed my man, slimmed his legs and paralysed his chance
I know Allah got plans, but still I reminisce at night
This can't be us, this can't be right
[Chorus: Omillio Sparks]
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
[Bridge: Omillio Sparks]
It's funny how me chasing change, made my whole life change
Got me a range, slammed in the bing
Freedom snatched away, hug a momma from a cage
Watchin' a tear roll off her face, but ma, I'm hurt no more
[Chorus: Omillio Sparks]
Yo, tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
Tell me how we know
This life we leading take us places that we don't wanna go
Now I really wanna change, but I'm chasing change
Tryna ease the pain, shelter for the rain
I don't wanna hurt no more
