Uh, yeah ItÔÇÖs Ja Rule nigga
Uh, uh, yeah
Feel this Uh, Ja Rule nigga Def Jam, Ja
Look at my life style itÔÇÖs dangerous
When I was young this sorta life was contagious
HustlinÔÇÖ hard like them sharks down in Vegas
My gat and I come bust spontaneous
This world made us to take only what they gave us
The game is our loss
Watch yo gloat
Then show you that this world ainÔÇÖt yours
Push crack like swinginÔÇÖ doors
And leave strips wide open JaÔÇÖs holdin
A pair a nines and yaÔÇÖll cats foldinÔÇÖ
My life ainÔÇÖt been all that goldinÔÇÖ
This ryme hit me at a young age and kept callinÔÇÖ
I know IÔÇÖm fallinÔÇÖ
To the evil of money and drugs and loose woman
But thatÔÇÖs what IÔÇÖm lovinÔÇÖ about livinÔÇÖ
Bein I see my birth as agivinÔÇÖ KnowinÔÇÖ my inner limits
This game ainÔÇÖt no scrimmage
Lets play big weÔÇÖre winners
Beg the Lord for forgiveness
For when I die please take me off your shit list
Cause IÔÇÖll be nameless
PuttinÔÇÖ them through changes
The J to the A Niggas know the flows crazy
Chorus:
What makes a nigga what he is?
And how do we get from where we at to where we be?
ItÔÇÖs evident whoÔÇÖs out for the dead president
And why so many close to my heart had to die
Were we goinÔÇÖ in life figure
ThereÔÇÖs no start no end
But when in doubt you could count on your nigga
(Repeat 2x)
I got a lust for this money
Admire them old timers
Assume with no conscience
Made a world so chaotic
Opened up my mind and introduced me to narcotics
Brand new wips not this thicks the hottest chicks
I just canÔÇÖt seem to keep them off my dicks
The difference is yaÔÇÖll did yaÔÇÖll thing on the low
Made a lot of doe We did our thing high pro
Though we still blew I wish I knew dirty money was evil
I never understood until I lost a few people
Dead and gone still their memory lives on
Throw a mural up let them niggas whem was loved
Now were in to better things
Got our hands on every ring
Crime in the streets
Cause itÔÇÖs my time I draw the line between love and war really
Nigga you with me Your flossin, outside that you fear me
Literally strait up and down with no cross
As God is my witness and JA is yours IÔÇÖm a spirit in your direction
Hit the floors, Nigga
Chorus:
What makes a nigga what he is?
And how do we get from where we at to where we be?
ItÔÇÖs evident whoÔÇÖs out for the dead president
And why so many close to my heart had to die
Were we goinÔÇÖ in life figure
ThereÔÇÖs no start no end
But when in doubt you could count on your nigga
(Repeat 2x)
