The Cycle Lyrics by Big Ice

Bigger Dreams

2019

(Verse 1) [Big Ice]

When I was young
I'd would close my eyes
Used fantasize about a different life
Momma job wasn’t meeting ends
We went hella nights without a single light
It was days we were dead broke
All really we had left was eggs and rice
Never knew who our daddies was
But all well, we’ll be alright
Momma had to find a way to get it
So she hit the block started fuckin' niggas
Late nights with ya momma gone
Man that shit really start fuckin' with ya
Momma hit lick
Nigga doubled back
Sent a bullet straight thru her dome
Cop came n knocked on the door
And said "Sorry kids but your mother’s gone"
I’m 17 and my brother 12
Ain't no fam around and we gotta eat
So I’ma do what I gotta do
I’ma boss up and I'ma hit these streets
I'ma do all that he want
And he knows that it come with a fee
He just put a dub in my hand
Then ask when’s the next day I’m free?

(Hook) (x2) [Big Ice]

And I do it again
And I do it again
And I do it again
And I do it again
I don’t need love
I don’t need friends
Just tell me when
I’ll do it again

(Verse 2)
When I was young
I would close my eyes
Use to fantasize about different things
Now I’m 20 & my brother grown
Since momma died‚ shit ain’t been the same
Rents paid but our stomachs growl
And my little brother tired of feeling pain
Hit the block with some grams in his sock
He done fell victim to the game
He done fell victim to the gang
Glock 40 with a stupid aim
Popped a nigga and it hit his brain
He ain’t even really feel ashamed
Putting bullets in his friends
Putting bullets in his enemies
Any thing for that bread
Duck and dodging hella felonies
Gotta get it by any means
Cause ain’t no morals when you starving
Ain’t no light up in the darkness
Ain’t no love when you heartless
All well
All well
Gotta finish what you started
And long as a nigga got money for me
I'ma pop this pussy regardless
Uh
An I'll do it again
