Same Niggas - Mase
Uh, yeah, yeah
Sh*t is crazy, yo
(I feel you though, ni**a)
Who woulda ever thought, same niggas
Itd be them same niggas
(you are the same ni**a, though)
Same ni**a that couldn't get the deal
Now I'm the hottest ni**a wit a deal
(you ain't changed a bit)
Yo, niggas never got nothin good to say, quick to blame
fore you judge me feel my pain
You know it ain't a vest in the world that could shield my reign
You ain't got money for the gas *****, get out the range
Got welcomed to the game wit like 4 mil and change
Niggas feelin like I changed, but I'm feelin the same
So who cares if they beg to differ
When all them niggas that beg to differ
Is cokeheads and sniffers
Take me for example, least I made it
You think niggas in the hood should appreciate it
By time its happy birthday its gon be belated
When you me, everything you do get exaggerated
You miss a ni**a pound they gon say you flipped out
Take a piss in the street they say you pulled your dick out
As a youth its just a lot of sh*t I wanna live out
Got alot of friends but only had a few when I was without
Same niggas I was starvin, couldn't get a crumb from
Sometimes I think, where all these mother *****ers come from
I needed money for school, couldn't get no ones from
Got jumped in the park and couldn't get the guns from
Instead of rollin wit a clique, roll wit my sis
Hell no, these mother*****ers can't hold my stick
You think I care if they get mad? I don't owe them sh*t
Wanna hold sumthin hold my dick, ni**a
1 - we might be from a different hood
But we the same niggas
(thats just the way it is)
Don't be thinkin sh*t all good
It be them same niggas
Same niggas get caught, blame niggas
Same niggas, go to court and name, niggas
(some things will never change)
It be them same niggas
Man, regardless how you feel
(its the way it is)
It be the same mother*****ers thatll get you killed
Them same niggas, them same niggas, them same niggas
Them same niggas
Thats why I don't ***** wit niggas
I got a brotha named ant, right? glad to be home
Been through a lot of sh*t so I'm glad to be grown
But yo, where were these freaks when I had no jeeps
Livin on 34th street and we ain't have no heat
cross from p.s. 92, 7th and 8th
Asked you for dough and you said no dead in my face
But now that I'm on, its like I owe everybody somethin
All my niggas dead so everybody frontin
Same kids went to catholic school is dealers
And same niggas had no heart is now killers
Sometimes I reminisce on what I said in the mist
But even when I dream, it wasnt better than this
But actually, the niggas who would scrap for me
Or go as far as getting guns and clap for me
Ain't even here to get a platinum plaque for me
I talk to them but they don't talk back to me
I ain't know you that long so ain't much I can ask of you
And when I reminisce I can't take it back wit you
I can't ask yo what happen to my ni**a black or q?
So I don't really need to rap wit you, ya know?
Repeat 1
Yo, I figured if we all out, its all right
As long as when we all brawl we all fight
I'm under niggas hoses like roses
Here I am, m a dolla-sign e ni**a, fear no man
Ni**a hit me in the mouth and we bound to fight
Just call my bluff and it be on tonight
I got words of a madman tatooed on my arm
Ain't *****in wit my sister cuz I'm mad at my mom
Blink sayin, that ain't you wit a gat in your palm
But blink, its either that or be harmed
So the doctor give me pills for the wound, stitch my flesh
Give a ni**a last wish so he could pick his death
So my sister wanna rap and I wish her the best
But I would never wanna wish her my stress
Cause its like when I hurt, yall laugh
They put me on every forecast sayin that I bought a**
So I drink a tall glass before I spaz
Then I take it like a man and let it all pass
I wanted big bucks, no whammys, understand me
I show niggas love and niggas underhand me
Then they wonder why I want no family
What I need a hooker for, gettin head from
And I fear when new years come, cuz it might be the year
A good ni**a die cuz when you good life ain't fair
Like you call on the saints but the saints don't hear
You could cry to the lord, its like christ don't hear
So instead of hood winking I give you the plain facts
If I never change, how I'm gon change back, explain that
They sayin mase ain't the same cat
But every time you get robbed I get ya chain back
Them same niggas
Them same niggas
Them same niggas
Them same niggas
Thats why I don't ***** wit niggas
Its crazy like that, you know what I'm saying?
Youll be tellin a ni**a you got a deal
He think that that sh*t come with rollies
And they come wit benzs
Come with bentleys and houses and sh*t
They don't need no one to work, a ni**a quitin
Repeat 1 until fade
