You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
I do it all myself, I ain’t gettin’ help
From no one, from no one
Yeah I’m young, 21, living in a crazy world
But I know the difference between a man and a herb
You fronting like you got it, claim they hatin’ on your wallet
Gucci telling you the time and you watch it,
No I ain’t stuntin’ like my daddy, he’s living with my granny
Used to be a big baller, he’s surviving off of gambling
But I love him, he’s my daddy, yeah I love him he’s my daddy
Put him in a big house, before I ever see a Grammy
And my mommy started working days at the church
Finding faith in God ’cause the real world hurts
So much evil lurks, they just make us work
But we can’t find work
Abuela, mommy, and the girls, in a one bedroom
South beach lifestyle, they just paying for the view
Mommy on the couch, since she was 42
Sacrificing for the kids, ’cause that’s what mommies do
So I smoke my spliff, I spliff it hard
Candi says to stop my voice is getting too harsh
So I sobered up, and my thoughts they rush
And now I think of you behind bars
Cross state lines, they spliffin’ good
In Miami you catch a charge
And the whole family tears apart
You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
I do it all myself, I ain’t gettin’ help
From no one, from no one
You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
I do it all myself, I ain’t gettin’ help
From no one, from no one
And this recession’s so depressing
My parents don’t stop stressing
Just hoping I learned all their lessons
And I’m paying for this session
I’m paying for this session
And I’m paying rent, food, clothes, phone, Christmas presents
Six shots in, I’m just counting all my blessings
No days off baby, I ain’t resting
I told my sins, now I’m done confessing
You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
I do it all myself, I ain’t gettin’ help
From no one, from no one
You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
I do it all myself, I ain’t gettin’ help
From no one, from no one
One way to the top, I’ll make with what I got
You want my number, baby, I’m on a mission, catch up
Men selling love like thieves
But when the girlie leaves, he’ll start flirting with me
So I took my heart off my sleeve
Never trust a man ’cause they all hungry
Yeah, they all hungry
Never trust a man ’cause they all hungry
Right when you thought you had me
Baby, you just lost one
Finally got over you, baby time to move on
Never learned your lesson, ain’t even gon’ question
Why it went so wrong
Right when you thought you had me
Baby, you just lost one
Finally got over you, baby time to move on
Never learned your lesson, ain’t even gon’ question
Why it went so wrong
You say you a gangsta, that don’t impress me none
You say you a gangsta, ain’t seen a thing you’ve done
