the adrenaline rush

knowing cops could rush

Hustlers we don't sleep we rest
one eye up

And a drought can define a man,
when the well dries up
D
You learn to work the water without working,
of thirst you'll die yup
Am
And niggas get tied up for product
D
And little brothers ring fin
gers get cut up
To show mothers they really got 'em
Am
And this was the stress I
live with til I decided
D
To try this rap shit for a living
I pray I'm forgiven
Am
For every bad decision I made
Every sister I played
D
Cause I'm still paranoid to this day
And it's nobody fault I made the
decisions I made
This is the life I chose or rather
the life that chose me
