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