d.w. & the party crew - street life lyrics

[intro]
yo, willie, what’s going on out here, man?
yo, man, i came to speak on this all about the street life, you see what i’m saying?
word, let’s talk about it

[chorus]
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
[verse 1: willie; steve; both]
a+people running around with guns in the dark
a+tryin’ to mug your buddy while he’s walking through the park
and all you really want is a little bit of wine
but the only way to get it is committing crime
there’s selling dope, likе pimps and prostitution
the street life has its own constitution
a young boy becomеs a man in the streets
stealing and lying and learning to cheat
or walkin’ through the park, just looking at the ladies
people on 42nd street k!lling like crazy
people on the boulevard checking [?] too hard
people on main street stealing everybody’s car
been used and abused, misled and confused
and you don’t know the wrong or right thing to do
because ever since the age of one and two
the street life has had a hold on you
and at the age of one, you got your first gun
and at the age of two, you began to cut school
and at the age of three, is when you became a [?]
and at the age of four, you was pimping wh0res
and at the age of five, you was living street life, ha ha, ha ha
’cause if you ain’t got no money, the only way of life
is the common way called street life

[chorus]
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
[verse 2: willie; steve]
little old ladies, peddlin’ on the street
looking for a dime for something to eat
[?] and pickin’ up aluminum cans
goin’ everywhere trying to cash them in
now you’re running around town, no shoes on your feet
no shirt on your back, no food to eat
and you really don’t have a place to call home
you go to the streets to be left alone
the street life comes, the street life goes
street life, only the poor man knows
a poor man wishes for a better day
but the street life says there ain’t no way
living in projects, roaches and rats
it ain’t no reason to live like that
people running around with the living dead
wonder in their minds if they’ll ever get ahead

[chorus]
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that street life is after you and me
[verse 3: willie; steve]
gangs running around with guns and knives
[?] take some poor man’s life
gigolos, pimps and pushers too
they’re all out there looking for you
though it’s really bad how you have to live
got kicked out your house ’cause you couldn’t pay your bills
so, you’re in the streets and it’s all about surviving
you better hurry up ’cause [?] is arriving
a+welfare, food stamps, adc
or is the only thing for you and me
playing the lottery, every day
or trying to get money in a legal way
don’t be on the streets at night
’cause you never know when you’ll lose your life
and when the nighttime comes, you know you better run
thieves are everywhere, even in your home
you steal from your mother, you steal from your brother
and you take what you’ve got to the p+wn shop
there’s nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
’cause you can’t get away from that street life
they took your tv, they took your couch
they even took your granddad’s cigarette pouch
people here, people there, people running everywhere
looking down on the ground ’cause you’re on the welfare

[chorus]
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that the street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that the street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that the street life is after you and me
street life, street life
if you don’t watch your back you have to pay the price
you can’t get away if you try, you will see
that the street life is after you and me
