Esham - Watch Ya Back Lyrics
Well where i stay its like basehead heavenBrothers clock dollars 24-7Some get caught and some don'tSome'll make big money, some won'tSome bite the bullet the hard wayBrothers play the game of death but don't know how to playMoney in ya pocket can't roll cause you're squareLivin day to day is a black man's dareMoney things and jealousy's a big parta lifeYou thought you was the man till they stabbed you with a knifeThey took ya whole stack for a piece crackBrothas don't know how to act, watch ya back(chorus)They gonna get you, you betta watch ya backThey gonna get you, you betta watch ya backThey gonna get you, you betta watch ya backThey gonna get you, you betta watch ya backGrow up in the ghetto actin savageWhen junkies smoked dope and murder was averageHow could you cope in the city of dopeYoung brotha hangin from a tree by a ropeYa sellin pound to pound earnin nothin but a nameIn the streets ya got fame, but the chilla all the sameFlashin cash and thinkin you're on topBut you fell to the bottom when the gun went popA brotha who's nothin will always have nothin thats a factPeople don't know how to act, watch ya back(chorus)Walkin down the street around 12 at nightTryin to sell rocks but ain't a base head in sightOne pops up from outta nowhereAnd then another and another and anotherShoulda watcha back like a soldierI told yaThey're gonna getcha brotha(chorus)
