When you crazy have this go down
Up in this town games they play with spin your head around
I'm getting tired cause they just don't slow down
Everybody wanna get at peace when it goes around
The spots are hot I'm trying to avoid all the crooked cops
From block to block they got us tied up in little knots
And every day I try to tell myself I'm gonna stop
But every night I find myself deeper in the plots
Gunshots and them sirens in my nightmares
I wake up in a cold sweat glad I wasn't there
Cause I've been playing in the same game a long time
I watched it take away and change their closest friends of mine
And if that isn't bad enough got my enemies
They can't wait to see the game get the best of me
I wanna stop it all but I don't know how to leave
And risk my future breaking ties with my family

Don't wanna live in a world without no love
Don't wanna breathe from the sky without no Sun
And I would give anything to feel as free
As I did when I was young
Don't wanna play anymore so tired of the game
All the players still the same but everyone's changed
And I just can't find a reason to keep on hustling anymore

The game is for life, for life, for life
Para su vida, su vida
The game is for life, for life, for life
Para su vida, su vida

Step out of my house gotta keep my head down
I don't wanna see too much nowadays this city is rough
It all started in here selling dope to the latest
Getting up scratch for that Mercedes Man that shit is crazy
Missed American investment
That's how my time be spent collecting dividends
And catching hands ain't no time for friends
And I know there's gotta be, there's gotta be
A better way, a better way
But not today I got to stay patient
And get my scratch met
And I'm just trying to avoid the policeman
Cause if he sees me then he knows just what I'm up to
He's gonna roll me up and take my ass to jail
The system never fails

Don't wanna live in a world without no love
Don't wanna breathe from the sky without no Sun
And I would give anything to feel as free
As I did when I was young
Don't wanna play anymore so tired of the game
All the players still the same but everyone's changed
And I just can't find a reason to keep on hustling anymore

The game is for life, for life, for life
Para su vida, su vida
The game is for life, for life, for life
Para su vida, su vida
