Good evening Cassidy... Real Talk
[Cassidy]
Life is cruel but you can choose your life
An' if you 'on't make the right moves you could lose ya life
An' that ain't cool there's rules you gotta use in life
But I make the news trying get some food to bite
Dudes drool when they see my jewels, cubes of ice
So I don't go nowhere without the tools at night, RIGHT
This for my niggas trying choose they wife
& my sisters that's trying choose the dude they like
They call all men dogs cause ya'll prove 'em right
Until they get confused & wanna choose a dyke
An' ya right hand man that you refuse to fight
Might stab you in the back but won't use a knife, RIGHT
Don't get it confused I move the white
I get cream from the fiends that abuse the pipe
I like money, guns, ice, and a lot of yay
So stress is the price I guess I gotta pay
[Swizz Beatz]
Ha, ha that's real talk right there Cass
That's real talk baby. I mean the streets gon' relate to this one
They can relate to this. Back against the wall. That's right
[Waah Dean]
Yeah. Better play by the rules
Cause I'm tellin' you lotta niggas turn fools
Get lost in the system and get jammed with the 9
Telling' you man respect my man Cass
It's for real on the field. This is wiser talking'
Fuck what ya heard
[Cassidy] (Swizz)
(Let's go)
I always tried to do it big but had small paper
Now I'm going big my friends want small favors
I'll see ya'll later cause I'm trying stack
& ya'll just trying keep my back against the wall paper
You think it's easy to rap -- this shit hard labor
I put years in; blood, sweat, & tears in
Plug ya ears in cause this real talk & this some true shit
We all go through shit
See baby girl she got a seed on the way
An' she 'on't know how she gonna feed her little seed everyday
Another young brother gonna bleed everyday
We in the gutta that's why we smoke weed everyday
Daddy locked but he innocent
He can't afford a lawyer and his public defender a degenerate
An' mommy she just heard her daughter call
She ain't got no lights & they 'bout to cut her water off
[Dee Dean]
Uh, you know we all gonna pay
A matter ah time, we gonna live though
Don't even worry bout it. Just a matter of time
We be straight. Do what you gotta do
Stay focused. Gotta put ya time in
You don't put no time in you ain't gonna get nothing out of this
So you put ya time in, now it's your time, let's make it happen
[Cassidy]
I'm trying get out the gutta look I don't grind for nothing
This so my little brother won't be deprived for nothing
Dodging' ducking' busting' feasting'
In police handcuffs going up the precinct
You could get stuck up by the sluts you sleep with
While you eating it, sucking it, fucking it, creeping it
Even our young bucks is stuck on some street shit
Cutting school, puffin', plus they freaking, cussing, speaking outrageously
I'm trying get from route A to Z; get a house, play the V
Get a spouse, make a seed, relax and live
The kid Cassidy tell it how it actually is
I been stacking bread but 'fore you look I'm gone
An' I'mma crook every song they put me on
An' it ain't no questioning that
Man I know I'mma blow I just pray for the rest of you cats
[Swizz Beatz]
That's what I'm saying man uh huh
You know the industry is what it is
The streets is what it is
It's a struggle
By the end of the day ya back is against the wall
For real how you gonna come up out of that
It's on you man (it's on you dog)
