lil flip – i shoulda listened lyrics
huh huh, i had to do somethin’ like this
ya know, huh i shoulda listened, i shoulda listened
i shoulda listened, when ya said, “boy go and get a job”
i shoulda listened, ’cause you gotta sell dope or rob
i shoulda listened, when you told me i need to go to college
but right now i’m tryin’ to money in my wallet
i shoulda listened, when you said boy make good grades
but instead i was worried about them new j’s
i shoulda listened, when you said, “boy, don’t get no tattoos”
now it’s 2 years later and now i got 22
i shoulda listened, when you said, “keep playin’ basketball”
but i was makin’ mo money standin’ in the hall
i shoulda listened, when you said i need to be in the church
but that’s hard “why” ’cause everyday i gotta concert
i shoulda listened, when you said i need to watch my friends
’cause yesterday my partner got jacked for’ his benz
i shoulda listened, when you said, “don’t stand on the corner”
’cause all black folks do is smoke marijuana
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened, when you said, “quit standin’ on the block”
’cause all that do is make it easy for the cops
i shoulda listened, when you said, “it don’t matter what car you drive
long as you pay yo bills, long as you survive”
i shoulda listened, when you said, “don’t be hangin’ at the club
’cause people get drunk and wanna shoot the club up”
i shoulda listened, when you said, “you can’t please everybody”
right now i’m findin’ out i don’t need everybody
i shoulda listened, when you said, “don’t brind them n-gg-z to ya house
’cause when you ain’t there they’ll try to break in ya house”
i shoulda listened, when you told me, “you read what ya so
so everybody i meet i cant treat ’em like a hoe”
i shoulda listened, when ya told me to do somethin’ wit my time
so i picked up the pen and paper and now i’m writin’ rhymes
i shoulda listened, when you said, “forget the money put god first”
so that’s the way i gotta end my verse
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t do that”
i did it anyway
i shoulda listened, when yo told me “don’t hustle”
but i gotta get paid
i shoulda listened
i shoulda listened
i shoulda listened
i shoulda listened
