Da, Da, Da

Da, da, da, da

Da, da, da, da, da

(Yeah y'all, it's like that y'all, it's like 'Bet Your Life')

{sample repeated in song}

Yeah

It's like rolling in a Bronco pumpin' them pumps

U know what I'm sayin'?

On Broadway or somethin', U know what I'm sayin'?

Yo yo, straight up

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey yo, call the paddywagon, I've seen a black boy cash stackin'

Smirk on my face screamin', '**** the Grand Dragon'

4 the fast cash, we be thinkin' 2 slow

Clownin' each others on the damn talk shows

I don't wanna house but I gotta stick and rob

I got a disease, it's called 'Can't find a job'

Smokin' on the herbs help me see a little better

Lookin' 4 a job in this cold ass weather

Watch out, I'm tryin' 2 get my **** 2gether (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Yeah - da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

(Gotta keep it goin', gotta keep it goin')

It's been kinda lonely (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da)

(Gotta keep it goin', gotta keep it goin')

Hey yo, as soon as I come home, I'm stressed by my mama

Questionin' my whereabouts like I'm the Unabomber

Question mark, comma, freeze all the drama

Intensive care flows 4 all U hos smacked with trauma

As I sit back with my blunt and gin

Grab a pen, write a song about a million black men

Tryin' 2 blame all this violence on gangs

What about those fools who kill 4 nothin' and hijack planes?

(Let me hear U...)

Get your **** 2gether (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

(Gotta keep it goin', gotta keep it goin')

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da)

(Gotta keep it goin', gotta keep it goin')

Yo, I'm goin' 4 the gold like a olympic sprinter

**** the ********, steaks 4 dinner this winter

Yo, I've seen a murder scene that left a fool scarred

Plus I saw a prisonyard way before a schoolyard

Time's rough plus time's runnin' out

My mom said if I trip one more time, I'm gettin' kicked out

And I ain't tryin' 2 make excuses

But lookin' 4 a job in the ghetto is ****in' useless (Let me hear U sing)

Get your **** 2gether, straight up (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Yeah, uh - da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

(Let me hear U sing)

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da)

Ask yourself your destination

What the source of your inspiration be

And U will find a spirit tryin' 2 get back 2 the mind

How U was in your mama's belly

Live and let live was the order of the day

What U say?

Loving one another is the only way!

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

If U believe in one thing, if U believe in 2 things

(Da, da, da, da, da, da, da)

If U believe in anything then let me hear U sing

'Da, da, da, da, da, da, da'

Keep on believin' (Da, da, da, da, da, da)

Lord

(Yeah y'all, it's like that y'all, it's like 'Bet Your Life')

(Yeah y'all)

(Come on)

(Yeah y'all) {x2}

(It's like 'Bet Your Life')

(Yeah y'all, it's like 'Bet Your Life') {x3}

(Yeah)
