Saigon - Better Way Lyrics
(feat. Layzie Bone)[Intro: Layzie Bone]Hey, hey, it's lil' LaySaigon, Just BlazeJust out here in the field manTryin to make these ends meet, you know?Every time you look around it's some shit goin downMan we tryin to make a better waySaigon, talk to 'em manTell 'em how we tryin to do this man![Saigon:]Check, my heart is hurtin and my soul's searchin for a better wayI was born in Mooseknuckle where the kid was led astrayThen I moved to B.K., where I fell in love with gunsFast forward six years later I'm a felon on the run with oneRenegade Run was my aliasAnd even when I was whylin the 'gon was a Don like CorneliusThem hoes used to chase me aroundNone of my niggaz surprised, I got models givin face to me nowThat I roll with a super producer plus keep the booth in a stuporThat's your dog? Call him, or we're meetin is [?]I try to put all of my trouble-makin days behind meBut it seem like them *****ers always find some way to find meI never thought that Just Blaze would sign me (why?)Cause he know that I fight a lot and he know my Nation is rangin grimy (yeah)That's how I know that nigga for realTook a chance on givin a trill nigga a deal[Chorus: Layzie Bone (Saigon)]Although we thuggin and we be buggin we do be tryin to find a better way(Tryin to find a better way)And I'd be lyin if I said that we wasn't tryin to keep our pockets paid(Tryin to keep our pockets, paid)Although we grindin we on the grind and cause we tryin to reach our destiny(Tryin to reach our destiny kid)Whether it's hell (it's hell) whether it's jail (it's jail)[Both:] Or it's the cover of the XXL![Saigon:]I never thought rhymin would help me climb the ladder of successNiggaz thought by now that I woulda took the magnum to the chestOr have the staggerin arrest record for dabblin in thisI knew I shouldn'ta been in since I'm fresh up out the penBut N-O spell 'no' sucka, I kill 'em with the flow *****aYou could compare me to no otherI'm so scared of my temper, what if somebody try me?What if I gotta prove that I still use the shotty?Atlantic Records would dropped me, police is gon' knock meThem *****es is gon' laugh at me, the haters is gon' partyAnd I'll be back in the yardWith old timers callin me a GODDAMN FOOL for clappin ratchets at y'allI'm tellin you this, so you know I'm fully awareAnd very mindful, that I will throw away my careerAnd let one of you little ***** niggaz step in my squareAnd I'll show you I keep the weapon right here, aiyyo Belly come here![Chorus][Saigon:]Check it, lookI'm hardly never low-key so it's hard to get to know meGot enemies in the street that's still targetin to smoke meIt must make 'em sick to see me as godly [?] in the movieWait 'til they start spendin money to market and promote meWhy would y'all wanna stop me?I changed my life around, put the rifle down, niggaz still plottin to Big and 'Pac meBut on the contrilly I'm packin the mac-millyAnd clappin at the first lil' faggot that act sillyIt was my destiny to be hereI killed the mixtapes for three years, all original beats so be clearAnd as *****in fate would have itI got connected with the best producer in the world so we can go in and make a classicSo when will you learn? I get deep without the Biblical termsWe livin in hell with no physical burnThat's why a nigga tryin to find a better wayAnd sayin hi to tomorrow, goodbye to yesterday[Chorus][Saigon:]Whether it's hell, whether it's jailOr it's the cover of the XXL!Whether it's hell, whether it's jailOr it's the cover of the XXL! [echoes]
