The Maze

[Chorus: Young Noble]
We still prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us trapped in this fuckin' maze (Fuckin' maze)
We was prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us dyin' in this fuckin' game (Fuckin' game)

[Verse 1: Young Noble]
Gotta stay up on ya grind, get up out of the struggle
Whеn you play in them corners, you bettеr watch for trouble (Watch)
Man these streets like death, nigga, and don't nobody love ya (Love ya)
Do what you gotta lil homie, ain't tryna knock ya hustle (Never)
Just know there's consequences for every action (Yeah)
Real life spit this ain't no mumble mouth rappin' (No)
It will come a time when them bitches become distractions (Right)
Focus gettin' that bag and makin' it happen (Look)
Plan, plot, strategize, watch the sign (Signs)
I done seen it all twice in this life of mine (In this life of mine)
E'ybody want the lime light, fightin' for shine (Fightin' for shine)
See I got that natural glow, that gift from god (Gift from god)
Life of an outlaw before I met Shakur (Before I met Shakur)
I don't do a lot of talkin' nigga less is more (Nigga less is more)
I've been' winnin' for a minute I ain't gotta keep (Yeah) score
'Cause I know how it feel to be young, black and poor
Man!

[Chorus: Young Noble]
We still prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us trapped in this fuckin' maze (Fuckin' maze)
We was prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us dyin' in this fuckin' game (Fuckin' game)

[Verse 2: Young Noble]
If it ain't no justice, ain't no peace (No peace)
Gotta watch for the homies and the police (Damn!)
Last time you seen him it wasn't no beef (None)
But now he tryna split you to the white meat (Run)
Have you body layin' up under that white sheet (Shit)
Blood stains hearin' people screamin' down the street (Woo!)
Tryna tell ya, the game ain't what it used to be
No trust, honor, no loyalty (None)
But everybody love ya when you dead and gone (Gone)
Especially the ones who probably did you wrong (Wrong)
How long will they mourn? Life goes on! (Goes on)
Thinkin' back to better days, tryna hold on (Hold on)
I'm just tryna get my pockets and my heart right (My heart right)
And spit it for niggas livin' a hard life (Man)
Through the darkness, reachin' out for gods light (Yeah)
Through the darkness, we reachin' out for gods light (C'mon!)

[Chorus: Young Noble]
We still prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us trapped in this fuckin' maze (Fuckin' maze)
We was prayin' for them better days (Better days)
These niggas sellin' whatever pays (Whatever pays)
They just tryna feed their hunger pains (Hunger pains)
E'yday got us dyin' in this fuckin' game (Fuckin' game)
