Coolio
Somebody’s Gotta Die
Here today gone tomorrow life is borrowed
All your tears in sorrow bring it back and that's a fact (Fact)
When would you be at? Make sure you're pushing thought in to it
The game is changed when the bullshit was brought to (It’s brought it)
Our sets is falling now they live in love
Got a five false bucks reproduction of a bloody clothing
You rather see me in a cell than see me make my mail (Mail)
And when the story he tell he trying to make you fail (Fail)
Trying to make some money lope but money makes no man
And if you got no plan than you have nobody in your hand
We're so dope dive (Dive) and steal (Die) anything that pay the bills
Damn you folks if you wouldn't choked
Did you forgot to keep it real? (Real)
Cop came back rubbers in the back red wows is what you lack
Now you can feel it’s present (Present)
When you didn't count your blessings? (Blessing)
Now we're gone you are alone
Told your mama that you was grown (Grown)
Took one to the neck and three to the chest
Won’t front like you at the boom (Boom.... at the boom...)
Now you know (Cause you don’t know who’s grieving)
(Grieving for who?) For who?!
(Die...) I don't wanna die right? He don't wanna die right?
Don't nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
(Die...) She don’t wanna die right? They don't wanna die right?
Don’t nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
Ain’t my black khakis and my black boots
N***a we sued them 'till they were in the mud
We hold the coffin and it isn't possible we have another one of our Thugs
We don’t kick up the dust caught up in the terrible tragedy
When every n***a that fall unless he's start this is reality mixed with insanity
Family started to border bought his rhythm to a n***a his heart
Wish they that he asking where is God?
Don’t you try to play miss on the Lord
Final present has been said say just a take a funk and my n***a is dead
Before they begin as I take them under
I look as it hearth broking mother and I get to wonder
When will it be me? Everyone's gathering and coming to see
The remains in flames what I used to be
This is no more R.I.P. (This is no more R.I.P.)
You never know when it’s coming to get ya
But have them bullets go ready for protect you (Protect you)
Do it look like it’s gonna convent ya?
Ain’t no devil pack but you better go (You better go)
We got the control the hustle on the streets
Ain’t no hopping and then it will recover in smoke (Smoke)
We suffer and we living to die cause we soldiers
And we all the casualties of war (War war war war war)
We are the casualties of war (War war war war)
We are the casualties of war (War war war)
(Die...) I don't wanna die right? He don't wanna die right?
Don't nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
(Die...) She don’t wanna die right? They don't wanna die right
Don’t nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
I see them coming from a mile away (Away)
I couldn't stay I had to make my getaway I lived to find another day (Day)
That's how it go when the game we play (Play)
Everybody on board got a price to pay (Pay)
You better pay attention to what I say (Say)
You going to hell if you don't pray (Pray)
These streets are hard (Hard) walking down the Boulevard
It’s like walking through a prison yard
You never know when the shit go start
The pressure is on your money boy begin to fall
And you ain’t got to be sure to run these of court
Ooohooh damn you’re in jail but you can't call your crew
'Cause that n***as that used to be your crew
Now they're after you ooohoohooh
People seen you used to be about the team
But your pockets got lean n***as that was seen
I guess it’s all about the dream and that quality in your jeans
Is love in turn to hate but what known is what they see
Don't you ever scream separate the boy from the men
Caught your closest enemies just might be dearest friend
(Die...) I don't wanna die right? He don't wanna die right?
Don’t nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
(Die...) She don’t wanna die right? They don't wanna die right?
Don’t nobody wanna die but somebody gotta die tonight
(Die...) I don't wanna die right? (Casualties of war)
He don't wanna die right? (We are the casualties of war)
Don't nobody (We are the casualties of war) wanna die
But somebody gotta die tonight (We are the casualties of war)
(We are the casualties of war we are the casualties of war)
(We are the casualties of war we are the casualties of war) Yeaaheaaaaheaaaayeah!
(We are the casualties of war we are the casualties of war)
