(Ride with me for a minute y'all)
Plus I'm praying but they breaking down in tears
And if you down yourself, you got somebody that's down
I'm like a Cadillac door
I'm like a Cadillac door
I'm like a Cadillac door
Now my homies busted and getting shot at it's getting serious
I'm like a Cadillac door
But I ain't blowin' up I'm built to ride to death
(Say what)
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
Coming to work damn near bumming, people thinkin' it's funny
(Say what)
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
Look, Tommy, I miss you but I'll see you when I get thurr
All 'cos I'm trying to make a living
I'm a get it with the double if not the microphone
And the government ain't doing shit for my residence
(Yeah, we struggled)
See the star was born, don't think nobody notice
I'm like a Cadillac door
(Say what)
You tryin' to bring they spirits up, this for y'all, man
But I ain't blowin' up I'm built to ride to death
It's been a long time coming
I done struggled too long not to floss and get on
I'm like a Cadillac door
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
That lost a loved one to the people in 9-11
(Say what)
Consequences of that end up dead or in prison, ain't shit given
(Say what)
I ain't got shit but a dream, that's why they chose to ignore me
Till the day I die
So these wheels will keep on turning
Right, been through some shit
Hurricane Katrina, all the folks that lost folks that they care about
I know you can relate to my pain
(But we gonna make it)
(Say what)
Keep your head up dirty
I'm trying to live, don't my mama singing a sad song?
(Say what)
(Say what)
(Living)
Tried to do a 9-5 but where's the money?
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
(Say what)
I've been hit, been low, been high, I guess
(Say what)
Had a lot of struggles you went through in your life
Grand mama on my head, I'm ducking and dodging the cops
So these wheels will keep on turning
Man it's hell, you see, wasn't no woman there for me
Till the day I die
I'm like a Cadillac door
Now I'm thinking fuck doing it legal, bring it back to the hood
I know you've all had a lot on your mind, man
It's been a long time coming
I'm like a Cadillac door
I've been hit, been low, been high, I guess
I'm like a Cadillac door
Hey, now I'm on the block pumping rocks toting blocks
So just feel your boy Ching-a-ling
Goin' through these trials and tribulations kept me on focus
I've been through the dirt, been slammed from right to left
I'm like a Cadillac door
(Say what)
Hey, I'm dedicating this song to everybody
I'm like a Cadillac door
See now that I'm on, people think money make you proud
I'm like a Cadillac door
(Ha, ha)
I'm fed up. plus my homies sellin' crack doin' good
(Ride with me for a minute y'all)
Who are you to judge me for my sins and what I did wrong?
It's been a bumpy ride
They say look out for your family and so I try to shurr
(Say what)
(Yeah, we struggled)
But I've been struggling trying to come up since I was a child
(Say what)
I'm headstrong plus I'm out for those dead presidents
I'm like a Cadillac door
I'm like a Cadillac door
(But we gonna make it)
I've been hit, been low, been high, I guess
I've been hit, been low, been high, I guess
It's been a bumpy ride
(Say what)
But I ain't blowin' up I'm built to ride to death
(Say what)
(Say what)
