Life Of A Gangster

Mr. Capone-E

[Intro]
It's so rough you gotta stay tough
(gotta stay tough on these streets)
Keep your heads up
It's so rough you gotta stay tough
(gotta keep your head up homeboys)
Keep your heads up
It's so rough you gotta stay tough
(This to everbody out there)
Keep your heads up
It's so rough you gotta stay tough
(once again your homeboy Capone-E)

[Chorus]
It’s a rough life of a gangster
(life of a gangster, life of a gangster)
Living right here on these streets
Torn between war & peace
(War & peace, war & peace)
It’s a rough life of a gangster
(life of a gangster, life of a gangster)
Rolling through neighboorhood blocks
Lit them shots dodging cops (so rough so rough)
It’s so rough

[Verse 1]
It’s so rough so tough
Let me tell you something
Is there a heaven for a G?
That’s what I been wondering
Broken lights drug abuse
All kinds of crimes
Youngster on the corner
Slangin them nickels and dimes
One time’s
Placing us on arrest
Veteranos living tough
It's another drug bust
Liquor stores on my corner
With the windows locked
All the homies gettin popped
Closing off the block
Ghetto birds on my sky
Just to live and die
Politicians passing bills
Just to keep the city divide
Homicide gang injunction in place
Theres no turning back
Tattoos filling the face
Smile now cry later is the attitude
Crash units setting up narcs
To make their moves
Faces bruised with the knuckles bust
Trippin off angel dust
Living life so rough

[Verse 2]
Police brutality
Everybody got more enemies
The homies packing Glocks
Everbody having felonies
Dirty money just to pay the rent
Fuck the president
Never gave the neighborhood a cent
They got money for wars
But can’t feed the poor
So we join a gang now
We’re labeled hardcore
Forced to survive
Product of the system
In and out of jail
And my cousin I miss him
It's that rough life
So you got to earn your stripes
Its do or die just to survive
All these homicide pee wees
Gettin colder trying to do right
When there’s haters on every corner
Everybody representing
Drinking some bud
Gettin drunk at the club
Gettin kicked out for acting up
Livin rough
Can’t get no peace
Survival of the fittest
Out on these man made streets

[Bridge]
It’s so rough
You gotta stay tough
All my gangsters from my hood
Gotta keep your heads up
It’s so rough
You gotta stay tough
All the single ladies with babies
Keep your heads up
It’s so rough
You gotta stay tough
All the kids with their dads locked up
Keep your heads up
It’s so rough
You gotta stay tough
If you lost a soldier to the streets
Keep your heads up
