[intro: lil scrappy]
Ay. this wat you call keepin it 100 shawty.
Can't just be with a muthaf***a halfway,
You gotta ride with a n**** all the way.
Ay trey, talkin to em.
[chorus: trey songz]
Even if you gotta ride til the rims fall off,
If you gotta fight with your back to the wall.
You gotta thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone. [x2]
[verse 1: lil scrappy]
Ay shawty gangsta ass hell, so i can't leave her.
Her mouth jazzy as well, it make we wanna beat her.
And she been down for a long time so she my equal.
It's just me and you baby, f*** them other people.
If i ain't have no hope would you ride for me,
If ain't ain't have no dough would you die for me.
If your boy ain't have no cheese would you go get money for me,
Or would you fuck another n**** and go act brand new with me.
This world so crazy it gotta keep fighin.
And i'm in the middle of hell and it ain't no hiding.
You gotta be 100 baby and keep riding.
Them broke hoes start hating shawty and they never fight.
[chorus: trey songz]
Even if you gotta ride til the rims fall off,
If you gotta fight with your back to the wall.
You gotta thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone. [x2]
[verse 2: lil scrappy]
See this real life ain't nothing to play with.
My mama taught me what being real and strong is.
I won't let you crush my dreams cause that's how i feel.
Gotta walk thru my life just to see how i live.
I remember growin up with black girl and vern.
God told em stop doing crack but they never learned.
But what i learned is that we move as the world turns. and with one burn, i cannot be concerned.
As i walk through the the a if let the ? praying that i make it to the top by next week.
Having dreams of heaven but livin hell on the streets.
I keep it streets up and down baby and keep it real.
[chorus: trey songz]
Even if you gotta ride til the rims fall off,
If you gotta fight with your back to the wall.
You gotta thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone, thug it to the bone. [x2]
