mr. knightowl - ain't that a shame lyrics
[verse 1: mr. knightowl]
since birth, i’ve been causing pain
the house i’m living in my domain
where i kicks all the pushers, pimps, and tricks
selling drugs to make bank
getting back in a shank
talking about simon, home boy you know i never rank
but it’s a pity when you’re living in the city
of the wicked where the beast always has another deadly feast
better get ready, life’s a gamble in the ghetto
you got to commit any crime just to earn a metal
visions of the bl++dy mess
caress the mind of the criminal
my friends, they all become a minimal
living day by day when i was young, always packed a gun
h+ll, i’m on the run, now i realized this was my fun
d+mn, things are changed when you get older
but i still got to keep on looking over my shoulder
the streets that i used to roll no longer i consider home
but still down for the set that i grew up but hang out alone
[chorus]
in the ghetto, you got to earn your metal
don’t press your luck cause you’re going to get stuck
in the middle of the game, well ain’t that a shame
the mighty dollars taking over me
now the streets roam with a wicked mentality
in the middle of the game, well ain’t that a shame
[verse 2: mr. knightowl]
once again, a young child’s put to rest
with a bl++dy mess i’ve seen shot by another stupid team
you act much different when you’re not with all your homies
now where’s the man that i saw the other day, you phoney
you need a can to toast, you become a ghost
gone with the wind once again
i smoked with the man i win
all of my battles that i didn’t
but imma be the one that standing up today
foos try to walk and step like me, the reputation that i carry
i put a vato in a mortuary
i’m not the man you want your kids to be
so listen to me when i speak
before they find your body buried in a creek
my life’s been a mess; still, i plan to keep it all together
i’m thinking about all the days, nothing will last forever
i thought i had my homies back but those talking smack
buck them if i got to tuck, then you know it’s like that
[chorus]
in the ghetto, you got to earn your metal
don’t press your luck cause you’re going to get stuck
in the middle of the game, well, ain’t that a shame
the mighty dollars taking over me
now the streets roam with a wicked mentality
in the middle of the game, well, ain’t that a shame
[verse 3: mr. knightowl]
the victims in the casket, the young kid got blasted
it’s been going on in this reality, it lasted
but how much of this will make him understand, it ain’t the way
you don’t even know if you’ll live to see another day
acting like a big man but ran when you saw me coming
you didn’t have no back+up boy, that’s why you started running
you left and didn’t think about throwing down for your set
right between the legs cause you’re packing little chicken eggs
but claim to be the biggest when you started sticking homies
and then i broke you off in front of all your little homies
n0body did a thing, couldn’t n0body handled
1+2+3+4, crazy looking vandals
that walked into a room, living life ready to blast them
and still to this day, you know i’m walking past them
so think about that vato loco that’s in your dream
bumping on my beats when i’m roaming through my wicked street
[chorus]
in the ghetto, you got to earn your metal
don’t press your luck cause you’re going to get stuck
in the middle of the game, well, ain’t that a shame
the mighty dollars taking over me
now the streets roam with a wicked mentality
