America wants its respect.
The only thing America respects is power and power concedes nothing. After the LA Riots, they tried to calm us down and nothing changed since.
I didn't introduce thug life to America. Thug life is America. I don't get why the whole world is fearing me. I am scared, but so are they. It's like I am having a panic attack cause I have 15,000 people wanting to do what I want, listing to everything I say.
That's what I am, America's nightmare. I am what you made me, the hate and evil that you gave me.
Everybody against me. Why? Why me? I have not brought violence to you. I have not brought Thug Life to America. I didn't create Thug Life. I diagnosed it.
Foreign languages, I think they are important but I don't think it should be required because-actually I think they should be teaching you English and then teaching you how to understand double talk-a politician's double talk-not teaching you how to understand French and Spanish and German, when am I going to Germany? I can't even afford to pay my rent in America, how am I going to Germany?
I am society’s child. This is how they made me and now I’m sayin’ what’s on my mind and they don’t want that. This is what you made me, America.
Everybody's dyin tell me what's the use of tryin I've been Trapped since birth, cautious, cause I'm cursed.
No Man Alive has witness struggles i survived
So complicated to escape fate. And you can never understand til' we trade places
To all the seeds that follow meprotect your essenceBorn with less, but you still precious.
Wars come and go, but my soldiers stay eternal
I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottleI make mistakes but learn from every oneAnd when it's said and doneI bet this brother be a better oneIf I upset you dont stressNever forget, that God isn't finished with me yet
I' ve been shot five times but im still breathing living proof there a god if you need a reason.
