R U still down
R U still down
R U still down

Now up and at `em it`s on, I was raised to be strong
And Mama told me be a Thug since the day I was born
I came up, out the gutter never changed my style
Got for real about my papers, `cause the game was wild

And the fame was a plot to try to change me
And what`s strange is nobody knew my name `fore it came
Now the whole world is calling me a, killer
All I ever did, was try to reach the kids with the real

All the time I was ballin`, never heard my friends callin`
Couldn`t stop myself from fallin`, I`m all in
S**t`s gettin` sleazy, believe me
Best to take what ya need, but don`t be greedy

`Cause in my mind, I see sunshine, I thought
I didn`t have to run, now I`m duckin` from the gun yellin`, one-time
Take your time to feel my record, and if you did
Chill a second, my blind method, will still wreck it
My young homies stay strong
I wonder if they`ll listen to a ni**a when he gone, R U still down?

Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?

I`m gettin` high, so a ni**a think he touch the sky
Turn tough inside, in the rush to die
Livin` life as a Thug time to face the truth
What`s goin` on with the wasted youth, please God

Come and save me, had to work with what ya gave me
And got a ni**a goin` crazy
I can`t read the signs, I`m blind, but a ni**a know
He need his nine, `cause times, they ain`t what they used to be

Ain`t a penitentiary built big enough for me
And my ni**az on the streets, man listen
`Cause these ain`t the old days
Ain`t no way I`ma bustin` my ass and gettin` no pay

It seems I can`t find my focus, and homey I ain`t paranoid
I seen the future and it`s hopeless
Lord knows, it`s hard on a young scrub
It seems I had less problems when I slung drugs

But since I`m tryin` lace ni**az with the game
Wanna see me locked in chains, tryin` to dirty up my name
And them same motherf**kers that was callin` me
I will be the first to turn their backs, when I`m fallin`, see
I should have seen it from the jump, but now it`s clear
This one ni**a got the town in fear, but R U still down

Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up, R U still down?
Raise `em up

I wrote this for my critics and my, enemies
Last year ya used to love me, huh remember me
Now ya hate me with a passion, tryin` to get me stuck in the mix
I`m stayin` sharp, got no time for them tricks

And now they wonder if I`m goin` to jail
Just as well, `cause my life on the streets a living Hell
And I can`t sleep, they got my phone tapped, and mercy Lord
Come get me `fore they hurt me

Ran outta tears, and through the years couldn`t change me
My daddy left me alone, and so I`m angry
I never did nothin` wrong, my mama told me, "Baby it`s on"
And now I`m hustlin` and bustlin` bones

Never said it came easy, I`m makin` cheese
Buyin` all the things on TV, and gettin` skeezed
Wish my homeboys could see me now
Little bad motherf**ker runnin` wild through the town
Please tell me, R U still down?

R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up?

R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up?

R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up? Remember me
R U still down, raise `em up?

That`s right y`all, give them bitches the motherf**kin` middle finger
Raise `em up
These hoes can`t fade me, don`t these bitches know we crazy?
Thug Life, ni**az, be, the sickest

You feel me? Now get that s**t written down
Goddamn
Took four years and a motherf**kin` case
For these motherf**kers to feel me, ain`t that a bitch?

R U still motherf**king down?
Old hoe ass fake ass ni**az
We out this motherf**ker
