they was worried

but now they can smile

should be happy 'cause ain't too many of us beat 'em in awhile

just be careful in these streets 'cause this shit done got wild

a lot of niggas fucked up

so they playin' it foul

he was your homeboy

he your co-defendant now

if you gon' get money

get it

but lose the crowd

niggas in prison 'cause they homeboys ran they mouth

gotta be somebody the police chasin' that done got away

gotta be somebody 'round the world today that'll beat they case

gotta be somebody 'round the world got off probation today

gotta be somebody 'round the world walkin' out them prison gates

to that young nigga who took 'em on a high-speed chase

i'm just glad ya got away

i know ya heart beatin' fast

you couldn't afford another case

you tried to play cool

but you shoulda seen your face

lost 'em in broad-day

doin' a-hundred

dawg

goin' down a one-way

jumped out on 'em

turned into a foot race

git know the streets

so they couldn't keep they pace

he had to throw his pistol

that's okay

you ain't gotta do it

but for you i'ma celebrate

do me a favor

gotta be somebody the police chasin' that done got away

gotta be somebody 'round the world today that'll beat they case

gotta be somebody 'round the world got off probation today

gotta be somebody 'round the world walkin' out them prison gates
