Song Lyrics

Never, never, never
Never, never, never

I would never violate the codes of the streets
And I would never make a promise that I know I couldn't keep
And I would never testify, cop out for a plea
Or surrender information on my boys to the police

And you could never catch me on the block without a strap
And I would never pull it out unless I'm 'bouts to black
And I could never forget my homies dyin' for they scratch
Forever pourin' out liquor for 'em, God send me back

And I'll never shed tears, my heart is like a stone now
Never thought I'd live to see 21, look I'm grown now
Never say never they tell me all the time
'Cause never means it's forever but it's never crossed my mine

And I'll never go broke, I promise I'm a shine
Never come short on my issue, I'm on it every time
And I'll never be past it, you better gimme me mine
It's my money and I want it every motherfuckin' dime

No, I never forgot all my struggles in the past
And I could never forget how to hustle for my cash
And I will never forget how I felt when I saw Brad
Take that first breath and from then I knew I had to mash

And it could never be said I went out like a hoe
Never been punked, I'll never let it slide, never let it go
Never ever, never ever, ever no
Get on my level hoe or get a shovel hoe

It's never any question for my manhood I get down
I'll never switch, never snitch, never sit down
I'll never hesitate to squeeze a nigga six rounds
I'll never squat to take a piss, who's the bitch now?

I never ran, I never will, I ain't never scared
It's in my bloodline, the realest nigga ever bred
And that's some of the realest shit that I done ever said
And I can die but through my lyrics I ain't never dead

I'll never disrespect my momma
Never disrespect her momma neither, I'll never turn my back on Jesus
I'll never get caught off in the system 'cause I believe a
Man that follows man, ain't no man and I'm a leader

Never go turncoat my nigga, I could never trade
I'll never cross my homies out, that I ain't how I'm made
And I never had not one regret on how I was raised
I'm from the ghetto where I slung and rapped it every day

Never knew no other way, this ain't gon' never change
Never gon' bite my tongue, f*ck what that nigga say
100 with myself I swore to God I'd stay the same
And when I finally got my paper I was on my game

I'll never talk a nigga down, do yo' thang, dawg?
Never hate a dude for tryin', that's insane, dawg
Get your motherfuckin' money, that's the thang, dawg
Too many homies dyin' young, feel my pain y'all
