Life is a big game so you gotta play it with a big heart
'Coz nothing worse than a quitter
If you ever get there
Oh, you don't want to hear that you busy tryina stack
C U when U get there
And regardless of the times somebody up there still love us
Now little Timmy got his diploma and little Jimmy got life
I'll C U when U get there
I seen a man get swept off his feet by a boy with an AK
Pretending not to locin' but you're brokin', let me get you open
You gotta face responsibility one day, my brother
C U when U get there
Listen to the song that we sing
The situation so twisted everybody gettin' lifted
But who's the dummy 'cuz, now you done lost the hustler
I'd be a fool to surrender when I know I can be a contender
Let them know how you feelin' for your own sake give a little
The wide and crooked, or the straight and narrow
You need to loosen up and live a little and if you got kids
C U when U get there
A down-ass brother can never by replaced by a buster
If you ever get there
If you ever get there
I'll C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
I'll be there when you get there when you wit the sound bumpin'
The realest homies that you've been knowing for the longest
I'll C U when U get there
But your mind ain't prepared I'll C U when you get there
Always keep reaching sure to grab on to something
And just because of that you act like you don't like the brother no more
If you ever get there
And the time comes to choose which shall it be
The other homie shot the other homie and ran off with his money
I'll C U when U get there
But at times of despair we gotta pull ourselves together
More temptation and faith I guess we livin' for the day
'Coz my crew is rollin' hummers and your crew is rollin' dustas
Stand up for something or lie down in your game
If you ever get there
So hold your head up high if your poor and righteous
No matter you rag collar deep down we all brothers
C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
And Tamika around the corner just took her first hit off the pipe
If you ain't peek then you must be drinking and smokin'
As we walk down the road of our destiny
I'm a scuffle and struggle till I'm breathless and weak
So gather up your pity and turn it to ambition
Theres something of all that we desire
And if you fell you're out the game then you need to get back in it
C U when U get there
And keep up with the Jones's taking advantage of your own
I just strived my whole life to make it to the mountain peak
Someone's gotta run a little faster 'cuz we gotta later start
I'll C U when U get there
I'll C U when U get there
Could have built an empire if not for the jealousy that divides us
It's up to you to make it big
But some ain't missing a good thing until it's gone
C U when U get there
We got one push to give and one life to live
If you ever get there
I guess I'll see you when you see me
If you ever get there
If you ever get there
So you don't get caught sittin' when they come and do all the gettin'
I'll C U when U get there
'Coz it way too serious so you gotta pay close attention
We prefer to keep our eyes shut to whats right when
And put your vehicle and drive and stop by my side
I'm just tryin' to take care of my kids and handle my business
I guess that's just the way it goes
I'll C U when U get there
And though I got love for ya I know I can't trust ya
If you ever get there
I ain't tryina preach I believe I can reach
I know time seems right and the problems seem endless
If everybody's a sinner then everybody could be a winner
And when the other homies heard about it they thought that it was funny
