[00:11.930]Damn, take a ride, to my block
[00:15.800]My block, that's right! Heh
[00:19.020]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - For real, on my mother****ing block
[00:20.450]
[00:20.970]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - They got a nigga
[00:22.090]Shedding tears, reminiscing on my past fears
[00:24.090]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Cause nigga, shit was hectic for me last year
[00:26.210]It appears that I've been marked for death, my heartless breath
[00:29.010]The underlying cause of my arrest, my life is stressed
[00:32.150]And no rest forever weary, my eyes stay teary
[00:34.680]for all the brothers that are buried in the cemetery
[00:37.680]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Nigga shit is scary, how black on black crime legendary
[00:40.100]But at times unnecessary, I'm getting worried
[00:42.820]Teardrops and closed caskets, the three strikes law is drastic
[00:46.150]And certain death for us ghetto bastards
[00:48.270]What can we do when we're arrested, but open fire
[00:50.730]Life in the pen ain't for me, cause I'd rather die
[00:53.470]But don't cry through your despair
[00:55.760]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - I wonder if the Lord still cares, for us niggas on welfare
[00:58.770]And who cares if we survive
[01:01.100]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - The only time they notice a nigga is when he's clutching on a four-five
[01:04.130]My neighborhood ain't the same
[01:05.940]Cause all these little babies going crazy and they suffering in the game
[01:09.300]And I swear it's like a trap
[01:11.320]But I ain't given up on the hood, it's all good when I go back
[01:14.290]
[01:14.900]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Hoes show me love, niggas give me props
[01:17.520]Forever hop cause it don't stop... on my block
[01:19.480]
[01:20.950]Living life is but a dream
[01:23.040]Hard times is all we see (on my block)
[01:25.630]Every block is kinda mean
[01:28.710]But on our block we still prayyyyyy
[01:33.850]But on our block we still prayyyyyy...
[01:35.080]
[01:35.670]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Now niggas constantly hot, on my block, it never fails to be gunshots
[01:39.200]Can't explain a mother's pain, when her son drops
[01:41.460]Black male slipping in hail when will we prevail
[01:44.080]Fearing jail but crack sales got me living well
[01:46.620]And the system's suicidal with this Thug's Life
[01:49.420]Staying strapped forever trapped in this drug life
[01:52.110]God help me, cause I'm starving, can't get a job
[01:54.770]So I resort to violent robberies, my life is hard
[01:57.480]Can't sleep cause all the dirt make my heart hurt
[01:59.980]Put in work and shed tears for my dead peers
[02:02.810]Mislead from childhood where I went astray
[02:05.370]Till this day I still pray for a better way
[02:08.140]Can't help but feel hopeless and heartbroke
[02:10.740]From the start I felt the racism cause I'm dark
[02:13.330]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Couldn't quit the bullshittin', make me represent
[02:16.090]Hit the bar and played the star, everywhere I went
[02:18.190]
[02:18.750]In my heart, I felt alone out here on my own
[02:21.430]I close my eyes and picture home... on my block
[02:23.700]
[02:24.950]Living life is but a dream
[02:27.280]Hard times is all we see (on my block)
[02:29.880]Every block is kinda mean
[02:32.950]But on our block we still prayyyyyy
[02:36.360]But on our block we still prayyyyyy...
[02:37.910]
[02:39.000]And I can't help but wonder why, so many young kids had to die
[02:42.710]Caught strays from AK's and the drive by AK
[02:45.400]Swollen pride and homicide, don't coincide
[02:48.090]Brothers cry for broken lives, mama come inside
[02:50.710]Cause our block is filled with danger
[02:52.880]Used to be a close knit community but now we're all cold strangers
[02:55.800]Time changes us to stone them crack pipes
[02:58.610]All up and down the block exterminating black life
[03:01.530]But I can't blame the dealers
[03:03.320]My mama's welfare check has brought the next man chrome wheels
[03:06.850]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Nigga it's real, I know ya feel, my tragedy
[03:09.420]A single mother with a problem child, daddy free
[03:12.020]Hanging out picking up game, sipping cheap liquor
[03:15.000]Gamin the hoochies hoping I can get to sleep with her
[03:17.490]It's a man's world, staying strapped
[03:19.670]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Fantasies of a nigga living phat, but held back
[03:21.820]
[03:22.960]Pipe dreams can make the night seem hopeless
[03:25.440]Wide eyed and losing focus... on my block
[03:28.410]
[03:28.880]Living life is but a dream
[03:31.310]Hard times is all we see
[03:33.700]Every block is kinda mean
[03:36.750]But on our block we still prayyyyyy
[03:39.750]But on our block we still prayyyyyy...
[03:42.100]
[03:43.620]And block parties in the projects lasting way past daylight
[03:46.770]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - A young nigga learned to break night
[03:49.210]Used to play fight with my homies but they stuck in the pen
[03:51.780]I send them ends, but it's tough on a friend, in my mind
[03:54.770]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - I see the same niggas balling
[03:56.460]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - Alcohol will make a lazy nigga slip and fall, miss his call
[03:59.530]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - I know the young niggas understand this
[04:01.670]Growing up in this world where everything is scandalous
[04:04.680]I reminisce on the fast times, past crimes
[04:07.280]Trying to cop a slice of pizza with my last dime
[04:10.130]Can't explain, just what attracts me to this dirty game
[04:12.810]Gold chains, some extra change, and the street fame
[04:15.580]And what's strange is everybody knows my name, swear they all know me
[04:18.800]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - And lots of cash make a nigga change
[04:19.960]
[04:21.100]I hit the green just to maintain, feeling pain
[04:23.400]My Block (Nitty Remix) - Better Dayz - For all the niggas that I lost to the game... from my block
[04:25.330]
[04:27.140]
