Dear Lord I know You don't condone

The things I be doin' out here in these streets

And I hope that I pray that You can overlook

The wrong that I had done in my life

I don't know no other way to survive out here

I got a whole bunch of people dependin' on me

Just walk with me walk with me

Busslin' and gamblin' hit licks scramblin'

Bricks I'm out here handlin' I'm pimpin' and I'm payin' the rent

Didn't choose this dirty game this dirty game it chose me

Every city love cocaine they'll get it from him

If they don't get it from me

So I get cross-country with that thang

Makin' that crisp lettin 'em hang

Bangin' that 'Pac if I die tonight least mama know I didn't die in vain

'Cause I put up sum from every sale so all my children can live well

Might go to heaven might go to hell

But just put me in woodgrain lane Deville

I wonder sometime how life would be if it was no such thing as D

But then I put that sweet down 'cause that bullshit don't apply to me

'Cause out here on the real streets a dreamer always stay sleep

'Cause out here the strong survive

And now they didn't die from thankin' weak

Gotta play for keeps gotta play it hard still tryna get right with God

Still read my Bible lone 'cause Reverend do wrong still livin' fraud

Tonight if I get down on my knees

And ask the Lord to forgive me please

You thank He gon' hear me?

'Cause tomorrow I'm still gon' be slangin' kis

Lord I'm just a G

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

I just can't give it up

I'm riskin' all out in the streets

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

See I was born in the ghetto manye I was raised in the hood

And unless you lived it yourself it just can't be understood

People think hustlin' is cool or hustlin' is live

They don't understand hustlers only hustlin' to survive

They wished they lived in the 'burbs wished they didn't have to hang

Out on corners in low-income house in projects and slang

They wish their daddy was home mama wasn't on drugs

And they didn't have to grow up to be dealers and thugs

Po' children got aspirations and dreams just like the wealthy

But it's hard when that environment you live in ain't healthy

You ain't givin' no hope nobody showin' you pride

And you live with all this anger and frustration inside

Dog don't let nobody tell you what you can or you can't do

Just 'cause they funky ass couldn't do it they ain't you

You can be who you wanna be live life how you feel

Just put your faith in the Lord now that's keepin' it trill fo' real

Lord I'm just a G

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

I just can't give it up

I'm riskin' all out in the streets

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

I wonder if it's a heaven up there for real G's

For all the niggaz in the game that's been slangin' cheese

For all them boys on them swangers and their fifth wheel

I'm out here riskin' my life niggaz shife but I stay trill

I pray so much I wonder if the Lord love me

I think He do but I'm so caught up in my thug deep

The feds bug me followin' me around for three

Niggaz couldn't catch me so they hit me with conspiracy

You know that that's the other level of the game

Ain't got shit on me but some niggaz said my name

So here they come they thang tight

They playin' shife no Bun givin' me life

I ain't goin' back I'm a make 'em kill me

I'ma bust back fuck the pen you feel me?

Wish I can hug my momma and kiss my baby girl

I know it's a better place than livin' in this dirty world

Lord I'm just a G

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

I just can't give it up

I'm riskin' all out in the streets

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

Some people win and some people lose

Some always cryin' the blues yeah

Some people win some people lose

Some always bein' misused

Lord I'm just a G

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

Just can't give it up

I'm riskin' all out in the streets

Out here livin' fast

How long can it last?

'Cause I need You Lord right now

I need You right now

Need Ya I need Ya I need Ya

I need Ya 'cause I'm goin' and livin' too fast yeah
