Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Konvict, Akon and Young Jeezy
Tryna take it easy
Only way to go
And so
Let's get it
[Verse 2]
But if you're looking for me I be on the block
With my thing cocked, possibly sitting on a drop now
Because I'm a rider, yeah, I'm just a soul survivor, yeah
'Cause everybody know the game don't stop
Tryna make it to the top 'fore your **** get ****
Now, if you're a rider, yeah, oh yes, a soul survior
Let's get it
[Verse 3]
You know I can't sleep, we living in hell
First they give us the work then they throw us in jail
Road trip, yeah, I'm trafficking the white
Please, Lord, don't let me go to jail tonight
Who me? I'm a soul survivor
Ask about 'em in the street, the boy Jeezy a rider
A hundred grand on my wrist, yeah, life sucks
**** a club, dog, I'd rather count a million bucks
[Verse 4]
If you looking for me I be on the block
With my thing cocked, possibly sitting on a drop now
'Cause I'm a rider, yeah, I'm just a soul survivor, yeah
'Cause everybody know the game don't stop
Tryna make it to the top 'fore your **** get ****
Now, if you're a rider, yeah, oh yes, a soul survivor, yeah
[Verse 5]
Another day, another dollar
Same block, same ****, same part, same green
I guess we got the same dreams
Or is it the same nightmares?
We let the doves do it for us, we don't cry tears
Real **** don't budge, when mail man got his time
Birds at the judge
I'm knee deep in the game
So when it's time to re-up I'm knee deep in the
Real talk, look, I'm telling you, man
If you get jammed up don't mention my name
[Verse 6]
Forgive me, Lord, I know I ain't living right
Gotta feed the block, starve, appetites
And this is everyday, it never gets old
When I was a juvenile I stuck to the G code
This ain't a rap song, *****, this is my life
And if the hood was a battlefield then I'd earn stripes
[Verse 7]
If you're looking for me I'll be on the block
With my thing cocked, possibly sitting on a drop now
'Cause I'm a rider, yeah, I'm just a soul survivor, yeah
'Cause everybody know the game don't stop
Tryna make it to the top 'fore your **** get ****
Now, if you're a rider, yeah, oh yes, a soul survivor, yeah
[Verse 8]
Gotta watch your every move 'cause them eyes be on you
Gotta drive real cool when them pies be on you
Just 'cause we stack paper and we ball outrageous
Them alphabet boys got us under surveillance
Like animals they lock us in cages
The same **** that's a star when you put 'em on stages
I ain't cheat, played the hand I was dealt
Tried to tax the Grand Pearl, went and got 'em myself
Let's get it
[Verse 9]
No nuts, no glory, my biography you're damn right the true story
The city on fire, and I didn't even try
Run the streets all day, I can sleep when I die
'Cause if you're looking for me you can find me
On the block disobeying the law
Real G, thoroughbred from the streets
Pants sagging with my **** in my drawers
[Verse 10]
Just keep on moving now
Just to keep on moving now
Just to keep on moving now
Just to keep on moving now
But if you're looking for me I be on the block
With my thing cocked, possibly sitting on a drop now
Because I'm a rider, yeah, I'm just a soul survivor, yeah
'Cause everybody know the game don't stop
Tryna make it to the top 'fore your **** get ****
Now, if you're a rider, yeah, oh yes, a soul survivor, yeah
[Verse 11]
If you're looking for me I'll be on the block
With my thing cocked, possibly sitting on a drop now
'Cause I'm a rider, yeah, I'm just a soul survivor, yeah
'Cause everybody know the game don't stop
Tryna make it to the top 'fore your **** get ****
Now, if you're a rider, yeah, oh yes, a soul survivor, yeah
