Why the real n***as gotta die?
Why do real n***as, why do real n***as gotta die?
Why the real n***as gotta die?
Why the fuck n***as can't die?
Why we can't free the real n***as?
And get the fuck n***as all the time
Why the real n***as gotta die?
Why the fuck n***as can't die?
Why we can't free the real n***as?
And get the fuck n***as all the time

RIP to the fuck n***as, ain't like the n***as in the way
RIP to all the real n***as, I salute you to your grave
Shout out to n***as on the rep, y'all, try to release some of that stress
The land taught you what you know, n***a, you always talk about your J
Don't give a fuck about your ice, n***a, don't give a fuck about your car
'Cause none of that shit make you real, n***a, than keep it reel with your dog

[Chorus:]
Why the real n***as gotta die?
Why the fuck n***as can't die?
Why we can't free the real n***as?
And get the fuck n***as all the time
Why the real n***as gotta die?
Why the fuck n***as can't die?
Why we can't free the real n***as?
And get the fuck n***as all the time
Eerythang called respected, eerythang, eerythang
Another day, another dollar, that's why I ride with this thang
My dawg Jake crossed the frontier, crack'em them shit among the road
Yeah, that's why the n***a stood low
'Cause he won't fuck with one his own
Five days, five bitters, n***a, that what the new paper say
And all my mo'fucking five bodies
A n***a caught one in the head

[Chorus]
My Mr. Dawg, n***a, he been jailed for 8 years
Damned my n***a wife and dog, so I had to see that he got killed
They say this shit is dirty game, n***a
But I'm a play it cut through
I'm glad they came with the crack law
He gave the real n***as loan
It ain't no crying on this scene, n***a
It's all good in the hood
They keep it real with your people
They like a real n***a should
