They got me bobbin, weavin', nigga, give me the reason
(It all seems so familiar)
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
Nobody thought he make it up outta the hood, before the gun blast
Sold rocks, all nighters on blocks, catch a case? Shit, me too
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
(It all seems so familiar)
Drop it off in that bag and make craps fast
Struggle in the game
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
Seen anybody get shot? Me too, you ever been shot? Me too
They left the hood for change
And that's Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone
(Wassup Kray? Yeah, we all we got, nigga)
And that's Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone
(It all seems so familiar)
Gotta wise, the shit that lame
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
And when he do, it's always later, never came, damn luck
And Momma can't do it on her own
(Scandalous)
Runnin' up in that black mask, niggas if you got cash
Then left some time in vain
Lights off, gas gone, Momma, Daddy comin' home?
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
Known as a heathen before Layzie Bone it was Steven
The boy was hot and didn't give a fuck
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
I guess not, sell rocks, rappin' with my niggas Bone
I know my heart is cold, you know how them ghetto children grow
Then left some time in vain
(It all seems so familiar)
Struggle in the game
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
But shit, Pappa been laid off, Mamma been laid off
Gotta wise, the shit that lame
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
Gotta wise, the shit that lame
They left the hood for change
(It's the same shit everywhere I go, you know)
They left the hood for change
They left the hood for change
But it's all to think when you're strugglin' and can't sleep
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
(Wassup Wish? Yeah, we all we got)
(It all seems so familiar)
Gotta wise, the shit that lame
Struggle in the game
(It all seems so familiar)
I can remember that little nigga when he was just a young lad
Struggle in the game
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
Destroyin' the system, make some money to survive the streets
Australia, China, Africa, England
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
Shit get deep when Daddy gone
Gotta wise, the shit that lame
They left the hood for change
(It all seems so familiar)
Struggle in the game
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
'Cause you're hungry but can't eat, 'cause livin' just ain't free
And I'm just tryna break even, leavin' you leakers steadily creepin'
To probably take a loss, I'm tryna fight these demons
That's my story, no more ridin', nobody can tell it for me
Then left some time in vain
Momma workin' double shift, Daddy, who? Daddy, who?
'Cause shorty wanted to be a thug, runnin' from cops out on the block
Priorities fucked up, but we already know
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
He done broke that boy's heart, man, again, damn again
Don't wonder why it's like that in the ghetto
(It all seems so familiar)
Everybody knows love, clubs, cars and hoes
(It all seems so familiar)
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
By any means, by any cost, I'm out here reppin' Cleveland
Then left some time in vain
Grew up outta luck, don't give a fuck about life, so we let 'em go
But you know deep inside that this ain't how you tryna be
(It all seems so familiar)
To let 'em flies do or die, niggas no longer breathin'
(It all seems so familiar)
(It all seems so familiar)
Give me the money and I can keep my tempers low
Then left some time in vain
Why does everybody's story seem to sound the same?
Everywhere I here the same old song
