Yeah, you know life can be funny sometimes,
You never know what life’s gonna throw ya way,
For the meantime, try to stack that gouda, nam sayin’


Yo, I got the homies, KoKane, Wesbound, Naymon

Let em’know homie,


Naymon Verse:
I am always out on my O.G.
Dealing with the stress time in O.T.
Show you right,
Smoking on this kush till I O.D.
Cuz if there’s heaven for ghetto’s
I find it in an O.Z.
Come with me, see what I got,
A shotgun on the whole beat,
Yeah I’m in these cold streets,
Feds runnin’ ramped and they GPSin everybody
Trackin’ all the cameras
Got they eyes on niggaz
Cuz its hotta than Atlanta
They like to play by the rules,
So I don’t have the answers,
So we continue to struggle
As if it really matters,
Then there’s increase in the hustle
So we contend as trappers,
I focus on the present, the future, here and the after
So I’m strategic,
I never believed that I was a slacker,
With misdemeanors and felonies
We never were a factor
In and outta the courts,
We spending our money faster
They stringing us right along,
Like they play on the telecaster,
Turn em, face to God,
As we face the final chapter,
Naymon!

Kokane Hook:
That’s Life,
Aint life’s a bitch,
You either die broke or rich,
Life,
I had to come up quick,
Cuz aint nobody gave me shit,
That’s Life,
When they smile in your face,
Stab you right in the back,
Life doesn’t play by the rules!
That’s Life!

Wesbound Verse
Homie its real on them streets,
That’s why my eyes is on my back,
Cuz niggaz kill for red and blue,
But I get green just cuz I’m black,
If you gone work or so sell on dope
Or have breezy on track,
Cuz all them good girls gone bad,
And nowadays them hoes is with that
I felt so much from pain from death
It’s hard to sit back,
I can’t even sleep unless I got some gin to relax,
My heart quit chronic
But my brain is screaming relapse,
I want the world to feel me,
And know it’s real when he raps,
Racks, is the mission,
Nine hundred and ninety-nine to be exact,
People is behind me,
So grind is where my mind be,
Rollin by myself, I stand alone and that’s a fact,
The closest ones to get em’ first
Will stab you in yo back,
Snakes in the grass,
So I’m quick to mow the lawn,
And leave em stomped on,
Dust my shoulders off,
And then stomp on,
So if you worry bout me,
Better worry bout you,
If I don’t trust my damn self then how the fuck could I trust you!
Wesbound!


Kokane Hook:
That’s Life,
Aint life’s a bitch,
You either die broke or rich,
Life,
I had to come up quick,
Cuz aint nobody gave me shit,
That’s Life,
When they smile in your face,
Stab you right in the back,
Life doesn’t play by the rules!
That’s Life!

Forge Verse:
Yeah, life’s always kicking my ass,
While dabbling with classics like Coke,
Need a pick me up, call up the homie, Kokane,
100% mang,
Since we appreciate life’s pain,
See sometimes, you gotta go thru the flames,
The heat of life puts us in our place,
Just in case,
Ya faced with a diabolical race,
Ya feel you can’t take,
Refines you like silver and gold,
Gets rid of the faux paux, Fake,
Then you at it again, fo sho, on the grind mane,
Cuz you’ll find that 90% of the time mane,
When you shine, the 10% of them had they evil primed,
Just smile back throw up my peace sign,
But they clueness,
To my rudeness,
Should call them Judas,
If I wasn’t a family man,
I’d shoot em where their poop chute is,
Stacking my gouda,
So when I die,
My kids stay paid,
Talking residuals…
Forge!

Kokane Hook:
That’s Life,
Aint life’s a bitch,
You either die broke or rich,
Life,
I had to come up quick,
Cuz aint nobody gave me shit,
That’s Life,
When they smile in your face,
Stab you right in the back,
Life doesn’t play by the rules!
That’s Life!
