Lord, I thought we was made for each other
Cryin', pourin' out my heart, pourin' out liquor behind it
(Why I live my life)
If you wonder why
Listen, mmm
So don't worry about me
I'm feelin' like my whole world is blinded, wonderin' why
Yeah, yeah, ohh
You knew what you was doin' when you made us
Listen, listen, listen
Listen, listen, listen, oh
Runnin' this race, makin' this paper
He had talent too, I had plans on watchin' him grow
I'll never last 'cause my better half is up there with you
(Why I live my life)
We made a vow, later we'll regret till death do us part
(Listen, listen)
Don't know what hurts more, seein' him leave, or watchin' him go
If that's the truth, then I'm realizin' I ain't no gangsta
Listen
'Cause I'm still paging you, 911, straight in denial
Listen, listen, listen, oh
Runnin' this race, makin' this paper
Listen, listen, children, listen
Listen, listen, listen, oh
You gotta find out the reason why
If you only knew the way I felt before they ruined the crew
If you don't know why
Listen
You better listen up right now
It's just not me but you know I'ma always ride with you
I have been through all emotions, from in shock to keepin' a poker face
To straight breakin' down and showin' all emotions
You's a soldier, you're probably packin' heat up there
Listen, listen, yeah yeah yeah
We lost a thug, a son and a father
I thought I learned from Eazy, now I'm goin' through it with you
The way that I do
If you don't know why
I'm tryin' to tell you somethin' good
(Listen, listen)
The Lord must be accidentally pullin' your file
Listen, listen, listen, listen, ohh
We could'a used time spent arguin', tellin' the truth
You either quit or you gon' play it like you get it
Don't get caught up in the 'hood
Since you finishin' 'em early, what possessed you to start him?
You didn't have to take him
'Cause I'm just hustlin' everyday
So don't worry about me
We fought like brothers, somethin' we never should do
Now, what I'm supposed to do, I'm only half the man that I was
I spoke to your son the other day and told him Uncle Dre got him
Listen, listen, listen, oh
The one who puts the G in it, who you think put me in it?
('Cause I got to get this money)
(Better listen)
('Cause I got to get this money)
Listen, listen, listen
So with all due respect, you could'a forgave him
('Cause I know my way around)
Prayin' you get it but no man can choose the card he was dealt
If you wonder why
(Don't worry, don't worry)
I miss you, sometimes I wish I just died with you
I'm just hustlin' everyday
Met up with homies from the street and got deep up there
The way that I do
I'm anxious to believin' real G's don't cry
You shouldn't connect those made to be taken away from each other
He can take the game with him, 'cause he defines the word
