how i'm living

Singer:plies

this is how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

it ain't nothing like you've seen on bet

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

it ain't nothing like you've seen on bet

where i'm from

it's a couple things that you won't see

you ain't gon' see no maybachs or no bentleys

and you ain't finna see no cribs worth a half a million

but there's a couple things

nigga

that you will see

niggas riding around with choppers on the front seat

and niggas posted in the dope hole trying to eat

and the police riding back to back

six deep

'cause what you see and what i see is two different things

i see niggas riding chevys

a lot of cocaine

and where i'm from

niggas don't drink cris

mane

niggas drink yak

crackers drink champagne

and when you niggas get rich

it's funny how shit change

with that $200 for that cris

i can get into the game

and cop me some of that hard or some of that white thing

if you've been in the hood

then how i'm living

why concern about you?

now that you got a little money

nigga

you've been flipped this shit for crackers

this is how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

it ain't nothing like you've seen on bet

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

how i'm living

it ain't nothing like you've seen on bet

and in the hood

we want you impressed by 9: 11

'cause every day in the hood is fucking 9/11

when 9/11 happened

it was just a couple killers

you'd find more killers around this bitch sitting in trucks

nigga

these boys like bin laden

but behind tint

nigga

the only difference is bin laden just gon' send them

a true killer will get you himself

last i remember

a plane got to hit the world trade a couple of more times

to catch up with all of these motherfuckers around here dying

and god

i want you to stop me if you think i'm lying

i bet there's 10

000 open cases right now

and y'all depicted a couple off a thousand cases

me and your motherfucking family need to trade places

so you can look around the hood and see all the sad faces

as soon as a nigga get killed

you hollering drug related"
