Lyrics

1st VERSE

All my life all I wanted was some kids N wife. Now I feel complete God blessed me twice. My Babies got ice hangin from they earloabs. N My queen got a custom fitTED wardrobe.All my life I worked hard tryin ta make ends meet. I got a benz wit beat lets head up ta Cache creek. They say da freaks come out at night. So, we should blend right in. You know I ain't da bashful type.Spare no expense, only da best ya know I'm picky. When I'm dead N gone I can't take shit wit me. All my life I had ta beg N borrow. Don't look up ta me I never been a role model. Mitchell N Ness label on my beltline. I ca run 4 4 forty like I'm at da NFL combines.I'm elusive and hard ta hold. I use ta be unknown now we shootin videos. N

CHORUS

All my life I rolled da dice, stayin up all night. All my life I wasn't polite.Thats why I spent All my life tryin ta make it alright wit da man upstairs. N if he's not a man then I hope she's there. Either way Ima be prepared. All my life I been hopin for a miracle. I should a been a millionaire 10 years ago.

2nd VERSE

All my life's not been right. Holdin tight through nights. Ta god I'm sendin kites not to difuse my life. Lower wages turns ta catchin cases. Stressin faces, grabbin gauges, home invasions. Fatherless sons on da run carryin guns. Lookin back sayin what have we become. All rules we ignore pullin beers up at da liquor store. Underage,underpaid, so we couldn't afford. Skippin class, livin fast. Runnin fast from task. Days a da past we talk about it N laugh. Nothins funny when ya hungry N ya don't have money. Borrowin clothes from friends so I don't look bummy.This game is rougher than rugby so we build up strength. Branchin out da counterfit N keepin it real. Those who walk da on battlefield without a shield no how I feel. Ta break all obstacles N do the impossible.

CHORUS

All my life I rolled da dice, stayin up all night. All my life I wasn't polite.Thats why I spent All my life tryin ta make it alright wit da man upstairs. N if he's not a man then I hope she's there. Either way Ima be prepared. All my life I been hopin for a miracle. I should a been a millionaire 10 years ago.

3rd VERSE

All my life I grew up on da darkside.Livin Wit a split personality like Jekyl N Hyde. Never satisfied Ima perfectionist.I know Mom's N Pops wasn't expectin this.Shiny necklaces N french maids. Parades N a place where we ca misbehave.All my life all I needed was a opportunity.I'm like everybody else in my community. Tell me what yo life been like. Mine N yours is very unlike. My kinds are tight they dislike takin away are rights.Judges be holdin grudges loockin us up away for days. There ain't no other way. Day ta day we disobey. Da laws da applause they rather keep us in pause.Were to massivel to react it so they surround us wit walls.Adapt to the adaptable never see us stall. We stand tall through da winter in da fall.

CHORUS

All my life I rolled da dice, stayin up all night. All my life I wasn't polite.Thats why I spent All my life tryin ta make it alright wit da man upstairs. N if he's not a man then I hope she's there. Either way Ima be prepared. All my life I been hopin for a miracle. I should a been a millionaire 10 years ago.
