Thug From Around the Way by Snubnoze Lyrics
[Intro]
Was once a thug from round the way x2
[Verse 1: Snubnoze]
It’s the new cat on the new track bring it back
When I attack on the wack loadin up the gat
Diggidy pop pop pop goes the 9, coming up from behind
Nappy headed nigga with the dope rhymes
No complication the mission, listen
Niggas they don’t listen and they keep pissing me
Off, cause they think I’m soft but the boss never lost
At any cost beat you like Hoss
Cut[?], right so, nigga don’t come to the Ponderosa
As I come closer you might catch a dose of
Hollow points through your joints
Duck, diggidy duck or get stuck by your buck shot
Think I’m gonna stop but I’m not 'til I see you drop
To the gun, creep you can’t come here with a nigga from the streets
Of the ghetto, hello, shake you like Jell-O
Niggas be trying to play me like a cello watch me sell yo
Soul to the Devil, dig it like a shovel
Cuz’ll take you to another level, several niggas have died
Became victims of homicide, raised in the streets but mommy tried hard
To keep her kid from the rough neighborhood
Why it’s like that I never understood why I
Had to be raggedy, so much tragedy, but yet I’m glad to be
Able to survive, day by day, as a thug from around the way
But you don’t hear me though
[Hook]
Was once a thug from round the way x2
[Verse 2: Eli]
Capital B-I-G Eli, see why niggas want to be my enemy
Cuz you see, doctors say I’m mentally insane in the brain
(Why?) Cuz I throw these things swiftly
And motherfuckers can't get with me
Never ran, never will, pack my steel, out to kill
Pop pop pop, niggas drop when I cock the giggity Glock
Murder 1, first degree, no one could be worse than me
Tell me who’s the first to see the barrel of my N-I-N-E
Yeah I be the best at this, niggas don’t try to get with this
Innocent people hit the floor cuz my bullets ain’t prejudiced
Rata (tata) tata (tat) I got my gat (I got your back)
Bought myself a 20 sack and a fifth of cognac
Serving crack to the fiends keep my pockets filled with green
Since the age of 17 I been from under my mother’s wing
Yeah another ghetto child roaming the streets, actin wild
Criminal record thousand pounds puffin on them black n mild
Quick to take your money or gold, quick to mack on one of yo hoes
Quick to breaking your shit and get a good price for them shoes and Vo’s[?]
Please don't ever step to me, I’ll put your life in jeopardy
Yeah I shot the sheriff now I’m looking for the deputy
Gotta survive, in these streets, on my own, day by day
A fat price to pay to be a thug from around the way
[Hook]
Was once a thug from round the way x2
[Outro]
Was once a thug from round the way x2
Was… was… was…
Was once a thug from round the way x2
