The Struggle Lyrics by Chino Grande

Slow It Down

2009

[Intro]
Haha yeah that’s right
What I’m talkin bout
Muthafuckas wanted some shit
Haha oh man that’s right
Muthafuckas thought this shit was a joke
[Verse 1: Chino Grande]
I’m so critically acclaimed
I put no faith in dame
Nah, nah, nah wait a minute
I’m a hustle like Russell
With some mad at the world
I’m young, dumb, brown and gifted
And I’ll snatch your girl
Let thy kingdom come
And I’m a take that change
A victim of the circumstance
I leave em dead where they stand
I’m rap’s gang banging legend
Only here to perfect it
Ain’t quite what you expected
And I learned my lesson
From the cradle to the county
And еverything between
All them carrots full of icе
They don’t glitter on me
I serve em best in baggies
With a .9 in my khakis
Jump out from the backseat
And let it just start cracking
I ain’t spitting no lies
And I ain’t trying to broke off
I get busted for the chirp
I bang the Varrio on the yard
I rep it hard, from the motherland
I reach for the stars
And everywhere around the world
They really know who we are
[Chorus: D. Salas]
At night I close my eyes
This ain’t the place for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
At night my mother cries
Meanwhile she prays for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
[Verse 2: Fiesty 2 Guns]
I’m out of hand
I’m the reason why those candles are lit
And after dark
Heavy arms squeeze the heart of the men
Regardless I’m heartless
When it comes to this game
Where’s your head down in shame
There’s new kings come to reign
Ain’t no time to stop dawg
The top is calling
These chumps keep falling
When I’m thumping and brawling
Haha they never heard this shit before
We been training for this war
This games over
But they be breaking through the doors
I spit the flames that make your brain sizzle
2 guns like a missile
Leave your whole crew crippled
With open ears
I spent so many years by the pistol
While you rose from the gutter
Where we will come and get you
Don’t pull ghost
When the shine of my barrel’s exposed
I got no soul
I’m as cold as this weapon I hold
I’m colossal on the mic
I’m a prophet of the times
I’m a grind til I shine
I’m a murder with my rhyme
Come on
[Chorus: D. Salas]
At night I close my eyes
This ain’t the place for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
At night my mother cries
Meanwhile she prays for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
[Verse 3: Baby Jokes]
Three G’s on the mic, is just right
And 3 G’s on the mic, we take lives
See me and Fiest, we bang the same side
And Chino knows muthafucka this is Charlie Row gang life
We the headlines and serve the white lines
And fuck you mister officer
See I’ll still lie
I’m so fine, can’t deny
I’m like red wine
And don’t intrude
When I think about getting mine
I hope you realize and respect mine
And even cats muthafucker got nine lives
I’m like a toast up, pop and it’s all over
Walk a straight line
Nah I’ll cut corners
Different attitudes and different altitudes
Mark my words
Baby boy I won’t be a fool
I’m kinda cool but damn I know I’m too smooth
Diamond in the rough
I just found a jewel
[Chorus: D. Salas]
At night I close my eyes
This ain’t the place for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
At night my mother cries
Meanwhile she prays for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
At night I close my eyes
This ain’t the place for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
At night my mother cries
Meanwhile she prays for me
Living this crazy life
Somebody set me free
