(Lend me your ear )

Listen

(Won't you listen, listen?)

Listen

(That's right)

My granddaddy was a hustla

On the dirt road, him and his brother

Stayed sharper than a motherfucker

Stayed on the corner, Stacy Adams never scuffed up

So that explains 'bout my daddy and me

I mean the apple don't fall too far from the tree

I was thirteen, mad as hell

Thinking why can't we live up in Beverly Hills

Wondered why all my homies in my hood were killed

Thinking why I got a 9 in my pocket for real

It's gotta be a better life than this

I mean kids shouldn't have to go through this shit

I mean this is California, land of the free

But every city in America, it's plain to see

My people ain't getting they due

That's the reason why we do what we gotta do

This is for the homies in my hood

All the single mamas it's all good

All y'all soldiers on the front line

Doing what you got to do to get by

This is for the struggle, it don't stop

This one's for Malcolm, Martin and Tupac

No matter how hard they try can't stop us

We still gon' get by motherfucker

I ain't in love with the situation

But I'ma get by and I'ma get mine

And my mamas and my daddies and my whole line

Until shaunshaun sitting on a gold mine

I'ma play my position get up in the middle

Sneak and attack this dog eat dog shit here

A whole lot of folks got to eat here

Grandmamma had 24 kids and that's real

'Cause I plan to build a boys club or something

Where fathers can take their sons on weekends

'Cause that's what they need, I don't wanna see 'em in these streets

These sharks out here and they eating

I know I been gone for a minute but I'm backTQ - Listen - http://motolyrics.com/tq/listen-lyrics.html

Just to put the west coast back on track

I gangsta represent it till the day that I die

And I didn't tell a lie, still gon' get by

This is for the homies in my hood

All the single mamas it's all good

All y'all soldiers on the front line

Doing what you got to do to get by

This is for the struggle, it don't stop

This one's for Malcolm, Martin and Tupac

No matter how hard they try can't stop us

We still gon' get by motherfucker

Baby girl, I know you trying to do it by yourself

Ain't got nobody there to help you

Seem like nobody cares for beautiful you

For beautiful you

Baby boy trying to get up out the game now

But damn it's so much pressure

It ain't a penthouse in the sky

It's keeping on the lights, we just trying to get by

This is for the homies in my hood

All the single mamas it's all good

All y'all soldiers on the front line

Doing what you got to do to get by

This is for the struggle, it don't stop

This one's for Malcolm, Martin and Tupac

No matter how hard they try can't stop us

We still gon' get by mothefucker

This is for the homies in my hood

All the single mamas it's all good

All y'all soldiers on the front line

Doing what you got to do to get by

This is for the struggle, it don't stop

This one's for Malcolm, Martin and Tupac

No matter how hard they try can't stop us

We still gon' get by motherfucker

This is for the homies in my hood

All the single mamas it's all good

All y'all soldiers on the front line

Doing what you got to do to get by

This is for the struggle, it don't stop

This one's for Malcolm, Martin and Tupac

No matter how hard they try can't stop us

We still gon' get by motherfucker
