I Been Through Dat

(*talking*)

Uh-huh, you understand, this for all the niggas

That's out there drugging you understand

I ain't hating on you niggas, I feel y'all pain man

And it's like this here, just peep this song out nigga

It's real, cause I done been through it

And I done left it alone

[Turk]

I understand now, I'm a grown man now

I was out there dog, no more dope in the bangs now

I done been through it, and I know what it's like

When you can't get no sleep, on a all night flight

Not worrying bout shit, not a god damn thang

All you want is that hit, and to hear that ring

I know it's hard dog, it ain't easy to quit

When that monkey on your back, nigga need that shit

You got to feed that bitch, cause he gon straight blues you

Get that noise out you, especially if you a shooter

I know you filthy, don't lie tell the truth

The shit you hearing, sound like I'm talking bout you

But I'm just keeping it real, telling it like it is

This shit ain't just started, been going on for years

And I'm sick of, shit killing us slow

I'm a grown man, and I don't want it no mo'

[Hook]

See what you niggas doing, I done been through that

From weed to coke, to that shit they call smack

And I ain't gon lie, that shit done broke my back

I done left it alone, and I ain't going back

[Turk]

They say time is hard, but time is what you make it

When you're wasting time, I call that baking

I done did a lot of wasting, in my life

A lot of drug chasing, all day and night

Same clothes bout a week, could you believe that there

No bath, brushing teeth, or braid my hair

Just running like a chicken, with his head cut off

When I'm banging never missing, you can ask my dog

I ain't give a motherfuck about whoever, whatever

Turk was gonna get it, in any kinda weather

Out there head first, had to get me

One and one everytime, never cope without the deed

That's just how it be, when you living that life

Stealing through your peeps, when you living that life

Or was it just me, who was living that life

Caught up in these streets, just living this life

[Hook]

[Turk]

I said it plenty of times, but now I really mean it

Fuck that shit, cause I no longer need it

It ain't good for me, cause it's bringing me down

And plus I'm never happy, cause I stay with a frown

Man I love my life, fuck throwing it away

Fucking with it leave it alone, please believe what I say

Cause if I could do it, you could do it too my nigga

No such things, as you can't do nigga

It's on you my nigga, nobody else dog

You know one thang, your boy been on your cell dog

Fuck help dog, cold turkey that bitch

And I bet you that you don't want go through it again

I'm through with it man, I done left it alone

And fuck turning back, cause I done left it alone

[Hook]

(*talking*)

Yeah, and it's like that ya heard me

I'm a living testimony to that monkey

That nasty untamed gorilla, ya understand

I feel you niggas hurting, I know how it is you understand

Waking up 8:00 in the morning, yawning

Body aching and you broke, don't know what to do

You understand, but you gotta do something

Cause that gorilla gon pimp you, you understand

He gon make you go get him, cause he gotta eat you understand

Either rob, kill, steal it don't matter you understand

You gotta get it, the best way you could you understand

If you out there drugging or thugging, you understand

That's on you man, I ain't hating on you, you understand

Yeah and it's like that man, let that man do what he want do

If he wanna be out there on the corner shooting up

You understand, snorting up, tooting up

That's all on him you understand, don't knock a nigga

For what he do you understand, he gon come in

Just like I came in, you can come in too nigga

You understand and it's like that there, I respect you yeah
