yall sell crack ta own

i'll be in back of a home

ya smell the musk of the dusk

in the crack of the dawn

we go through episodes2 like attck of the clones

wait till we break a bag

and ya hear the crack of the bones



just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by



wit the muta comuta

spirts debue

while ya equals spread rumors

we survive the less

turn to comsumers



just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by



as do i ask

why people gotta live in a trailer

cuz like a sailor i'm gettin a picture wit a pint light

norma miller raise 3 daughters all by her self wit no help

think'n bout a strugle and ta find the strenght for myself

and these word melt in my mouth they hot

like a jailsell in the south

before my nigga carl bailed me out



just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by



do i die like best die

the red sky window of the red eye

lead flower livin the less die



this moring i woke up feel'n brand new 'n i jump up feel'n

my highs and mylows and soul and my cold just ta stop smoke'n and stop drink'n and i 've been think i've got reason just ta by



just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by

just ta get by just ta get by just ta get by



we keep it gansta say fo'a shezzie fo'a shizzle and stay crunk

it's easy ta fool a brezzy smoke trees and we stay drunk

yo i active as if as a mattack'n the system

the blacks 'n latins in prison

numbas brezz'n they black vi
