Its either do or die
In a land of temptation
These people don't have patience
Mama, what kind of city were we raised in
Do or die
Its a messed up situation
Got to continue praying
Do or die
Nothing new, what must I do
Get me out of this world so cruel
What must I do, god I trust you
I'm misguided I haven't a clue
I'm never taking anything for granted again
These type of things I can't comprehend
Why is money the law of the land
When the pressure's on, do you stand do you fall
Can you take a shot straight to the heart
Straight to the heart
Loved ones dying, don't want to keep crying
Its too much baggage, I don't think I can manage
When will it ever get better
When will it ever get better
Its either do or die
In a land of temptation
These people don't have patience
Mama, what kind of city were we raised in
Do or die
Its a messed up situation
Got to continue praying
Do or die
Do you want to ride in the backseat of the the caddie
Its do or die, won't think twice squeezing the Matty
For my family who want ice without the natty
I'm on that green like A.J in Cincinnati
My mans on the hill like Jeremy, wishing badly
That something might change and a letter won't make him happy
The plug got knocked, pack boys getting Aggie
Cause all them dub licks won't be there like last week
Its unfortunate how times can change on you
It was sunny that day, that night it rained on you
You've been stranded for hours, sprint service banged on you
Looking at that last text found out she playing on you
And now you ready to beef
Its hard to face the fact she a hoe in the street
Get your dough and dip you can't grow in the streets
Only so long until you trying to get parole & be peace
Its crazy feeling like your prayers go unanswered
My aunt died she won't even get to meet her grandson
She's with my mom they waiting for me to drop an anthem
Always said life is short, won't take it for granted
They said when you go ham come back with a sandwich
Long as I could make some room I'm making them panic
I'm just trying to sip the nectar, lay in a hammock
I'm trying to chill but these niggas don't quite understand it
Its either do or die
In a land of temptation
These people don't have patience
Mama, what kind of city were we raised in
Do or die
Its a messed up situation
Got to continue praying
Do or die
