lirik lagu tommy wright iii - will i make it
[intro: tommy wright iii & king goldi]
uh, memphis and mississippi comin’ together (uh)
street smart records (uh, with the king, king goldi)
organized crime family, big ced, and tommy wright, will we make it? (in memphis, tennessee)
you wanna be with me here? (okay)
[chorus: tommy wright iii, king goldi & o.c.f.]
lord, tell me, why we have to die?
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game
[verse 1: o.c.f. & tommy wright iii]
1997, it’s almost summer, this year just startеd
i hope i don’t have to see any of my partners mamas brokеnhearted
down through the years i know plenty mama’s shed them tears (shed them tears)
deep inside i wish she had listened to his peers
not even that, some of ’em just crossed the line, by bein’ at the wrong place at the wrong time
my mama said, “son, won’t you change your line of work?” (i can’t, mom)
famous rappers like biggie smalls ridin’ in a he~rs~
much respect, momma, i gots to get them dollar signs
babies cryin’, bullets flyin’, i’m afraid of dyin’
i’m not lyin’ ’cause i know this game is just my job, big checks, no difference for that player ridin’ clean at the park
after dark you can catch me at the players club (at the players club)
i came up from definitely no one else, i got no love
for you haters, i know you wanna see me in my grave
what can i do? (what can i do?)
feelin’ the pain like 2pac
[chorus: tommy wright iii, king goldi, o.c.f. & tommy wright iii]
lord, tell me, why we have to die? (why?)
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen (yeah)
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes (when i close my eyes)
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game (you gotta make it, you know?)
lord, tell me, why we have to die? (why?)
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen (yeah)
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes (when i close my eyes)
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game (tell ’em, tell ’em)
[verse 2: tommy wright iii]
used to be tommy iii, pretend, just me sippin’ on hennessey, enemies sendin’ me into depression (uh)
smith & wesson is my protection, don’t be bringin’ anna’ in my direction (nope)
in this game it’s so many rules that we use these tools to survive
rap ain’t doin’ it all, so we use the game to make what we can on the side, tight, cryin’
sittin’ in the back of them police cars, handcuffs tight, you can’t blame me (uh)
violation of probation, knowin’ the judge finna hang me
tommy wright iii, man about my word, have you heard?
i’m number one on alotta heaters, but i feel millions i deserve (millions)
at age of fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, gangsters in memphis was makin’ a statement
don’t even think you can step to street smart records without bein’ left on the pavement
i hate to say it (boy), but these streets did alterations to my attitude (to my attitude)
persistent player profile, glow with no smile, show no gratitude
these snitches green as antifreeze, so i shoot when i have to shoot (boom)
i want my daughter swimmin’ in dollars by the time my boo reaches pre~school
it’s dangerous standin’ on corners sellin’ herbs and smokin’ indica
bud smokers, gun toter, all you see is a diamond ring of street smart sinisters
[chorus: tommy wright iii, king goldi & o.c.f. & tommy wright iii]
lord, tell me, why we have to die? (tell me, god)
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes (uh)
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game (uh, uh)
lord, tell me, why we have to die? (tell me, god)
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen (yeah)
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game
[verse 3: king goldi]
as the world turns (why mama?), think how many days do we have left
rush through this maze, now i’m down to my last breath
up, up, away, scream gone, go and take ’em
bein’ old got me scared, i ain’t never had the patience, maybe once
i can’t tell n0body that i’m tryna suicide
women, as your raise your babies, don’t you let ’em grow outside
it turned me out, now i’m spinnin’ counter clockwise
tell me have you ever seen the tears from a happy clown?
that man died with a heart full of sad dreams, when he walked the earth you didn’t bothered, couldn’t imagined
despite the pressure we go through, somebody feel the same
what go around come back if you caught up in the thang
ain’t no shortcut, you’ll get boxed up tryna make it, dog
the graveyard full of bad bones, them the bad dogs
it ain’t that funny when i think i gots to die, it’s a million answers to a million questions
so you tell me, why?
[chorus: tommy wright iii, king goldi & o.c.f. & tommy wright iii]
lord, tell me, why we have to die?
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen (dear god)
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get out this game
lord, tell me, why we have to die?
family and friends next to kids spendin’ their life in the pen
but then again, i’m seein’ jesus when i close my eyes
it ain’t the same without a weapon tryna get up out this game
