《That’s How I’m Livin’(On Rox Remix)》歌词

[00:00:00] That's How I'm Livin' (On Rox Remix) - Ice T

[00:00:30] I was born in new jersey I said it before

[00:00:33] But I guess nobody heard me

[00:00:35] My mother died young

[00:00:37] No sistas or brothas I was the only son

[00:00:40] When I was twelve my pops died too

[00:00:43] What a brotha was supposed to do

[00:00:45] They sent me out West

[00:00:47] To live with my aunt

[00:00:48] I guess they though it was the best

[00:00:50] But there was no love there

[00:00:52] Growin' with no moms

[00:00:53] I guess I was prepared to live in a vacuum

[00:00:56] The bedroom the kitchen the hall and the bathroom

[00:01:00] I didn't leave home much didn't like L A

[00:01:03] Didn't have no friends to trust

[00:01:05] Got busted to a school

[00:01:06] Blacks and whites I guess the sh*t was cool

[00:01:09] But in highschool I changed

[00:01:11] Didn't wanna bust didn't wanna play the game

[00:01:14] I walked to Crenshaw high sh*t was fly

[00:01:19] I hooked up with new cru

[00:01:21] Some brothas that knew what the f**k to do

[00:01:24] You might call it gang but we called it a set

[00:01:28] And it was our own thang

[00:01:29] The whole school was down

[00:01:31] And one way or another everybody f**ked around

[00:01:34] When the hardcore or not

[00:01:36] You wore the right color or your a** got shot

[00:01:39] That's how I'm livin'

[00:01:49] I did three years in and made close friends

[00:01:53] Havin' no love my homies came my only

[00:01:56] I was glad: a family I never had

[00:01:58] But I grew up fast got a girl on 10th grade pregnant

[00:02:03] Needin' cash I had to change my style

[00:02:05] Switched from bangin' to hustlin'

[00:02:07] No more goin' buckwild

[00:02:09] Had to get a cashflow

[00:02:10] But my hustle was weak it was a no go

[00:02:13] I join the army four years in that sh*t

[00:02:17] Be all f**ked you can be

[00:02:18] Came back to the hood

[00:02:21] My homies had done good

[00:02:23] Had elevated their game

[00:02:24] About 100 gees a lick no mothaf**kin' shame

[00:02:28] Passed for the jewels

[00:02:31] Baby sledgehammers with the tools

[00:02:33] I speak on this with a hesitation

[00:02:35] Even though it passed the statue of limitation

[00:02:38] That's how I'm livin'

[00:02:47] I checked the bank

[00:02:49] Bought a porsche and gear earn high streetrank

[00:02:53] But as I grew my whole crew fell thru

[00:02:57] Cops had us on the books as innerstate crooks

[00:03:02] Murder robbery rape escape the whole damn nine

[00:03:05] You robbed a ni**a blind

[00:03:07] I had too much juice I cut my boosters loose

[00:03:12] I was intread with the pimpgame

[00:03:15] Took on the ice-name

[00:03:17] But the pimpgame moved too slow

[00:03:19] Especially for a ni**a who was hooked on quick dough

[00:03:21] In one nite late I was in a carwreck

[00:03:25] And I was lucky to escape

[00:03:26] Hospital for teen weeks in bed almost dead

[00:03:32] And when I got well I got caught in a cross

[00:03:35] And got locked in a jailcell

[00:03:45] That's how I'm livin'

[00:03:56] They cut me loose

[00:03:59] And I had to change troops

[00:04:01] This time they didn't catch me

[00:04:04] Next time they'll strecth me

[00:04:06] Cause my time was gettin' short

[00:04:09] All my homies was in court

[00:04:11] Or locked in a hole this sh*t was gettin' old

[00:04:15] So I changed my life

[00:04:17] Putted down the gun and picked up the mic

[00:04:20] It took ten years to get from there to here

[00:04:25] But I still keep a gun cops got me on the run

[00:04:30] And they hate me more now

[00:04:33] Than they ever did before

[00:04:35] My homies came back from pen

[00:04:37] And we all worked together

[00:04:39] True friends but every once and while

[00:04:42] Some punk mistakes me as a junk

[00:04:45] And he gets in my face

[00:04:48] Wrong mothaf**kin' place

[00:04:50] And I ain't lyin' that's how you dyin'
