lyrics

I can't stand me a

(Verse One)

So you wanna be a dopeman huh
grind the block
get some product bought a triple beam
got a glock
look like a cakewalk in the movies
but this harder than you thought in real life it get gooey
premature props got you screaming boss
but in the underworld that only mean you next to get knocked off
word get around around here fast
spread a little cash but that pass ain't gonna last
and all that flossing got you rocked
them goons ran up in ya spot pistol whipped ya partner and skated with your crops
betta me then the cops
could've chalked up that loss
but that white got you believing your own hype
and since that first glock you done copped a few more
and they ain't find the cash you stashed under the floorboard
plus them keys that you hid up in Torrance
that's just enough to get back and once you get back you gonna wanna war

(Chorus One)

The tried to play you like a wannabe
never ever be just forever be a wannabe
went from a wannabe
to a dealer wannabe
now you a gangsta wannabe
once you kill ain't no turning back wannabe
they gonna regret calling you a wannabe


(Verse Two)

Baby beg you to retire, they could've killed you for Godsake
you like could've should've would've but they didn't and that was their first mistake
and the second one was one of them dropped they gloves
and the homey got a pair and he always got em on
seem him today and he said he forgot them at home
so you put the chrome to his dome and now he gone
by monday morn, connect plugged you back in
and every since then all you can do is win
you should get an award for the greatest comeback
streets ain't seen that since Jordan returned to the court and took his ring back
then 3 lapsed now you mvp
dominating the league all competition deceased
bumpin yeez they can't tell you nothing less they ready to bet it
frontin put up or shut up you don't do credit
and since you done set it they been thinking twice
you done sown up the block somethin nice
and everybody know it especially the vice

(Chorus Two)

now everyday you hustlin
no more strugglin just bubblin
addicted to the lifestyle
money power respect
the kind that don't come with an honest check
big baller right
shot caller right


(Verse Three)

Now every nights a party now
and whoever trip you gonna shut the party down
feeling real untouchable
you know that thug love is fake but it feel real comfortable
thats when you start slippin
talking wreckless forgetting who listens
see detective had you on his list
since his partner came up missing last Christmas
he was undercover on an up and coming drug dealer slash thug
and when he disappeared only thing they found was an orphan glove
he remember when he gave it to him
after his first bust
searched his spot late night on a hunch lucked up and found some audio that was tucked under some stuff in a dusty old trunk
for the last 12 months he been waiting for you to f up
so he can shut your operation down
set you up then sent you up



(Chorus Three)

now you stuck
ready to sing like thats the in thing
but in the bing
thats gonna get you f'd
they gonna split you up
then zip you up
never ever be just forever be a wannabe

(Outro)

you know they say if he talk alot he prolly talk to cops right? sssshhhhh
