Track #: 6
I wanna dedicate this one to Robert "yummy" Sanderford
and all the other little young niggas
that's in the rush to be gangstas...
As a Young Nigga
I'm almost ?swellin? in the wind
give anything to be that innocent again
when I was ten I didn't bang
but I was hangin with the homies
till them niggas started slangin'
now they don't know me
I got my hustle on learned to ignore
what coulda fade me lately I been tryin to make a million
can you blame me with that jealousy they wanna diss me
don't sweat me if the cowards really want me
come get me and even I
someday will die but I'm cautious up in my ride
put down the top now we flossen
hit the freeway let the wind blow
drop the window workin with a 20 sack a indo
feelin' good stop through the hood
grab the young thugs and I can't help but reminisce back when we slung drugs it was bad
but all we had was our hopes and dreams
couldn't see, unless we learned to slang dope to fiends
[Chorus] [G. Money]
He's the kind of G like everyone knows
He's always G'ed up, from head to toe
(My memories as a young nigga)
Always got it blown like Al Capone
He's the downest G I've ever known
back in Junior High when we was barely getting by
when daddy died that's when my momma started getten high
my neighborhood was full of drive-bys
couldn't survive all my homies livin short lives
I couldn't cry told my momma if I did die
just put a blunt in my casket
let me get my dead homies high
then follow me throughout my history
it's just me against the world
stuck in misery as a young nigga
my only thing is to get paid
life full of riches avoid snitches cause they shady
back in the day we always had the time to play
but after they taught them gangbangers how to spray
not just LA but in the Bay and Chicago and even St. Louis
every stadium that I go when will they change?
stuck in the game like a dumb nigga
remember how it was... to be a young nigga
[Chorus]
I'm tellin you, if you're young,
have you're brains and have every limb and all that.....
ya'll niggas don't know how good you really do got it.
Motherfuckers need to just calm down and
peep what they wanna do for the rest
before you end your life, before you begin
your life ya dumb nigga
Now that I'm grown I got my mind on being something
don't wanna be another statistic
out there doin nothin
tryin to maintain in this dirty game
keep it real and I will even if it kills me
my young niggas brake away from these dumb niggas
put down the guns and have some fun nigga
the rest will come
figure fame is a fast thing
they're gangbangin puttin niggas in a casket
murdered for hangin at the wrong place at the wrong time
no longer livin cause he trew up the wrong sign
and everyday I watch the murder rate increase
and even worse the epidemics and diseases
what is the future? the projects lookin hopeless
there, more and more brothas givin up
a don't care sometimes I hate when brothers act up
I hit the weed and I proceed to blow the track up
for young niggas
[Chorus] (repeat chorus over lyrics below)
this goes out to the young thugs
have nots the little bad motherfuckers from the block
those niggas that's 13 and 14 and
drivin' cadilacs and benzs and shit
young motherfucken hustlers
stay strong nigga you could be a fuckin accountant not a dope dealer
ya know what I'm sayin?
fuck around and be pimpin put here
you could be a lawyer niggas gotta get they priorities straight
Really though...
young niggaz...
little RahRah...
Especially my little cousins don't be no dumb guy
