[Intro]
Yeah, it’s that gangster shit, listen close, let me tell you ‘bout the streets,
Ain’t no fairy tales here, this the real shit, can’t nobody compete.
Money, power, respect, that’s the code we live by,
Trust no one, stay armed, ‘cause in this game, you can die tryin’.
[Verse 1]
I was born in the ghetto, where the streets raise the kid,
Mama on welfare, but she couldn’t pay for my bread,
So I hit the block early, tryna get what I need,
Slangin’ that dope, ain’t no time for no read.
Got my gangster mentality, ain’t nobody stoppin’ me,
Trust no one, even my homies, they could drop me, G.
I’m chasin’ that paper, ain’t no time for no games,
Bitches on my dick ‘cause they know I’m gettin’ that fame.
Money on my mind, power in my hands,
If you cross me, negga, you gon’ meet my plans.
Violence in my veins, it’s the only way I know,
In this cold world, better sharp or you gon’ go.
So I’m stackin’ my chips, buildin’ my empire,
Ain’t no-one fuckin’ with me, got the whole town on fire.
[Hook]
Gangster mentality, trust no one, that’s the code,
Drugs and violence, that’s how we grow.
Bitches love the money, money loves the power,
But respect, negga, that’s the only thing that last for hours.
[Verse 2]
I’m the king of the block, got the game on lock,
Move a kilo weekly, ain’t no comin’ back.
Got my right-hand man, but even he a snake,
If he cross me, negga, he gon’ meet his fate.
Violence everywhere, it’s the only thing I know,
If you ain’t with me, then you better go.
Bitches come and go, but the money stay true,
I’m a gangster at heart, ain’t nothin’ I ain’t been through.
Got my sights on the top, ain’t no time to chill,
If you in my way, then you better get killed.
Power in my hands, respect in my name,
If you ain’t never struggled, then you can’t feel my pain.
So I’m grindin’ every day, tryna get that dough,
In this game, you either eat or you get ate, yo.
[Hook]
Gangster mentality, trust no one, that’s the code,
Drugs and violence, that’s how we grow.
Bitches love the money, money loves the power,
But respect, negga, that’s the only thing that last for hours.
[Verse 3]
I’ve been through the struggle, seen the darkest nights,
But I never gave up, I kept my sights on the light.
Now I’m sippin’ on Henny, in the Benz with the top down,
Money comin’ fast, ain’t no time to wear the frown.
But the streets don’t forget, they remember the grind,
If you think you the boss, better watch your back, you blind.
Bitches they love me ‘cause I’m stackin’ the cheese,
But if you cross me, negga, you gon’ freeze.
Power, respect, that’s all I desire,
In this game, you either retire or get fired.
So I’m keepin’ my head up, and my gun on my hip,
In this gangster life, you either live or you dip.
[Outro]
Yeah, that’s the story ‘bout how it goes,
Gangster mentality, that’s how we grow.
Money, power, respect, that’s the code we keep,
In this cold world, better live while you sleep.
