All 4 Nuthin` Lyrics

All 4 Nuthin`

Chorus
A man would die a thousand times
Before he reach one with
soul
The one he beathes will be his last breath
Or does any one ever
known
He died with his riches in the streets
Because game is all that he
knows
Sacrifice his life for the paper
And that's just how the story
goes
You do it all for nothin'

6:30 in the mornin' my mama wakin' me
up
Tellin' me to get ready for school or she gon' kick my butt
Iron my
jeans till they creased, put on nikes and a fleece
She thinks I'm goin' to
school, but I'm headed for them streets
Before 12 am, I done did more shit
than a marine
Fall up in the school house, high off them greens
Hoes
bobbin', who that young nigga with the Figero
They call him big Ball, but
his real name is Primrol
4th period, american history ain't too
interestin'
My beeper blowin' up, my homies havin' a smoke session
30
minutes later, I'm stadnin' on the avenue
Duck pulled up in the cut,
thang
Askin' me what I wanna do
Jumped in the ride, fuck this shit, I
ain't hesistatin'
Trees, and chedddar cheese, keepin' me from
graduatin'
Hoes and clothes,
Big bones, and vogues
Young nigga puttin'
in work,
Superstar of the ghetto

Chorus

Summertime, every
weekend the club packed
After 10, if I don't hit ya back, that's where I'm
at
Me and my folks get mad love from the freaky hoes
Sleaky hoes, right
up under they nigga nose
I'm at the bar gettin' lifted scopin' out the
crew
Niggaz chillin' after a hard week of payin' dues
North Memphis
niggaz
Dick from Hollywood to Douglas
On the dance floor, provin' that
they hood the roughest
South side, and cast day and niggaz will rob you
quick
Reposess what you posess like it was they shit
But I was a player,
to all the players in other hoods
From dicks and hoes
From Fraiser back
to Westwood
Now I'm 19, my job is to supply the fiends
Cook the rock,
morphine, or a bag of green
Posted at my mom's house when in the came the
door
Black suits and search warrants and I'm the nigga they lookin'
for

Everybody wants to live the life
The good life that was
seen
Nobody wants to pay the price
But we want to live a life thats
free
Why would they make such a thin line
Even below we're livin'
it
For the life, I would do anything
Then do it all, then do it
all
All for nothin'

All for nothin'
All for nothin'
Sometimes,
we do it all for nothin'
All for nothin'
All for nothin'
Sometimes, we
do it all for nothin'
All for nothin'
All for nothin'
Sometimes, we do
it all for nothin'
All for nothin'
All for nothin'
Sometimes, we do it
all for nothin'

I'm 25 now, been gone away for 5 strong
And so much
shit has changed around my mama's home
My P-O, said a nigga can't achieve
pay no more
The justice system tryin' to play me with revolvin'
door
Violate parole and I'll be facin' time again
In the penn, tell me
how a nigga supposed to win?
I hit my niggaz up who turned me on back in the
game
Finally came across some hedges and a quarter thing
So much has
changed, these young niggaz be snortin' cocaine
Shootin' up heroin, and
shootin' niggaz for ghetto fame
I gotta lace my boots and wade through the
muddy waters
Prey on flesh, so I can feed my sons and daughters
Ain't no
love, niggaz hate to see another bubble
At the club sittin' on
chrome
Brother playin' trouble
Cheefin' hay, before I knew it steel was
in my face
I went for mine now I'm restin' in a better place

Chorus
