Young Noble: Over Again

YOUNG NOBLE
Aye yo is heaven got a ghetto then I'm chillin' with Yak
And if heaven got a ghetto then I'm visiting Pac
Cause the world down here
So cold thru my eyes
And my first piece of work got sold when I was 9
And I didn't realize what I was doing was wrong
Mom Duke was smoked out
And my pop was gone
I got a big brother Shawn
I don't see him a lot
Even though we fight yo
I still love him a lot
My uncle Carl just died
And I couldn't even cry
I couldn't even sleep
Couldn't even get high
My girl catch me 8 in the morning
Sometimes writing rhymes
Pain trapped inside
Like I got something to hide
It's enough to make a grown man cry
When you gotta sit back
And watch a grown man die
The pot of gold ain't promised at the end
But I'll do it all over if I had to again

E.D.I & NOBLE (CHORUS)
(cause I gave me all)
And ain't nobody give me a damn thing
I had to go out and get it mayne
(get that dough)
It ain't all about the money
But ain't a damn thing funny when ya hungry
(hard times come)
But I ain't the one to run
I stay in the trenches until the job is done
(I will not fail)
Aye yo I'm playing to win
And if I had to I'll do it again

YOUNG NOBLE
Me and my mom at the same time doin' a little bid
I was dumb keepin' coke in the crib
I had to learn not to stash where you live
But I was up makin' money from her friends
I wanna live
Cause back then we wasn't doing too good
But I did what I could to get my mom out the hood
I grew up in the ghetto
But she raised me right
Even though I was young
Stayin' out all night
Make some money on my own
So I thought I was grown
Hennessy kept me warm
Imma sleep on the floor
Believe in the Lord
Better yet -- believe in yoself
It might be nobody there when you need some help
Hard times back then
Made me stronger within
And I'll do it all over if I had to again

E.D.I & NOBLE (CHORUS)
(cause I gave me all)
And ain't nobody give me a damn thing
I had to go out and get it mayne
(get that dough)
It ain't all about the money
But ain't a damn thing funny when ya hungry
(hard times come)
But I ain't the one to run
I stay in the trenches until the job is done
(I will not fail)
Aye yo I'm playing to win
And if I had to I'll do it again

YOUNG NOBLE
I ask myself sometimes do I deserve all this
I ask myself sometimes is it worth all this
I ask myself sometimes do they feel my pain
I ask myself sometimes is it really a game
I ask myself sometimes is there a future in rap
Some cats get jealous
Wanna shoot me in my back
I ask myself sometimes do I really got homies
Will anybody care if I wasn't gettin' money
I ask myself sometimes can I last in this
I ask myself sometimes can I mash to this
I ask myself sometimes can I do it again
But that ain't even a question
Imma souljah til the end
(to the end)
