LYRICS

Everybody I know, around my way still there, (everybody still there)

Waitin’ for a miracle to pass them by (by, by, by)

Most of them are known drug dealers and I know them well

Yes I know them well

That’s the only way they know how to survive

‘Cause it’s the way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

It’s the only way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

‘Cause if I had a choice aside from this life, God knows I’d try

 

Blood stains on the concrete, and all the wall

Little snotty nose kids with guns up in their draws

You’ll see it all in them project halls

I’m surprised I’m still sane with all I saw

Spoons, dirty needles, and death is on the daily

Nobody is exempt, not even little babies

We just tryna survive out here, how many really livin’?

We ain’t alive out here!

Makin’ it to 21 is a blessing, little homie only 12

Why the fuck is he stressing?

His mama’s a crackhead, his sister’s a bloodhound

His daddy’s a jailbird, so he can sit full now

 

Everybody I know, around my way still there, (everybody still there)

Waitin’ for a miracle to pass them by (by, by, by)

Most of them are known drug dealers and I know them well

Yes I know them well

That’s the only way they know how to survive

‘Cause it’s the way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

It’s the only way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

‘Cause if I had a choice aside from this life, God knows I’d try

 

In the same jeans everyday, hustlin’ for the gwap

Day in and day out, hopin’ I don’t get knocked

Keep my mind on my money, money on my mind

My finger on the trigger, hand on my nine

By any means, I’m playin’ for the win

Momma told me to slow it down, or I’m goin’ to the pen

Fuck it, I gotta get it, it’s a must

‘Cause it’s grimey out here

Tell me, who can I really trust?

Me, and only me, I’m strapped up and on one

Niggas out here know I ain’t takin’ shit from no one

Little niggas, big niggas with the llamas

And anyone else who want any type of drama

 

Everybody I know, around my way still there, (everybody still there)

Waitin’ for a miracle to pass them by (by, by, by)

Most of them are known drug dealers and I know them well

Yes I know them well

That’s the only way they know how to survive

‘Cause it’s the way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

It’s the only way to get by, (it’s the way to get by)

‘Cause if I had a choice aside from this life, God knows I’d try

(To get away…)
