Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life, love, me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
This ain't life, this ain't love, save me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
[Verse 2]
So what, you think I'm 'posed to live in the hood my whole damn life
And get married on the Ave. with my damn wife
I'm gon' live my life and she gon' live her life
And we gon' be a-aight
So shit, I send the kites to my **** in jail (Send that kite, ****)
And tell them **** we good, once N.O. sell
And to my street ****, we done flipped out and beat ****
And made the loudest **** turn dis-creet ****
As far as these chicks, they lovin' the pipe
And she don't even like you, wanna thug in her life
See, she wanna a **** go and walk the hood with her
That **** try to front on her, I'm in the hood with her
Shit, so stressed I could see it in her face
When she walkin' down the block, but with me feel safe
And them **** won't front, have them dudes erased, it go
[Verse 3]
Life, love, me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
This ain't life, this ain't love, save me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
[Verse 4]
See I'm a vet, ****, and I could take you to school
And it's my fifth album, 'bout to quit like Rule
So go head and try it, see it just don't match
And ya man hate me, 'cause y'all just don't match
Got my gun on me and I could walk you upstairs
Till you get inside the crib, girl, I ain't scared
And tell ya man don't even come outside (Y'all **** stay in the crib!)
'Cause if he even try frontin', I'ma make that **** run outside
See I'm a, thug for real, I hold the steel
And I could walk you through the hood on the darkest hill
See she love N.O.R.E., plus any **** like me
Drivin' in the drop with a 10 cent icey
Shit, she want a thug that's basically
See she scared in the projects, but safe with me
Shit, N-O (N-O) R to the E
Spin out at 90 I'm hard with the V, it go
[Verse 5]
Life, love, me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
This ain't life, this ain't love, save me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
[Verse 6]
Yo, ayo, good green, 'bout to get some Valley stick
I'm on the west coast, fuckin' with my Cali bitch
And she always want some in the night and the mornin'
Wanna know everywhere, and where I'm performin'
Shit, but it's aight, just let her ride
Yo she down wit' a ****, just let her ride
See, I'm gon' live my life, and she gon' live her life, yo
[Verse 7]
Life, love, me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
This ain't life, this ain't love, save me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
[Verse 8]
I'm gon' live my life, love, me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
This ain't life, this ain't love, save me
I'm gon' live my life, hey
Thug Life, Lord you know me
