“My Life” The Game featuring Lil Wayne

[Intro]

 Punk *** motherf*ck*r!

 B*tch *** n*gg*!

 What were you gonna do?

 Kill me in my sleep u b*tch *** n*gg*?

 Tupac, Biggie shut the f*ck up!

 F*cking d*gs, they barking sh*t...

 Don't shoot me! Don't shoot me!

 F*ck you n*gg*!

[Chorus (Lil' Wayne)]

 And I'm grindin' until I'm tired

 And you ain't grindin' until you tired

 So I'm grinding with my eyes wide

 Looking to find,

 A way through the day

 The life of the night

 Dear lord you've take so many of my people

 I'm just wondering why you haven't taken my life

 Like what the hell am I doing right?

[Verse 1 (The Game)]

 Take me away from the hood

 like a state penitentiary.

 Take me away from the hood

 in a casket or a Bentley.

 Take me away...

 Like I overdosed on cocaine,

 or take me away

 like a bullet from Kurt Cobain.

 Suicide.

 I'm from a windy city

 like do or die.

 From a block close to

 where Biggie was crucified.

 That was Brooklyn's Jesus

 shot for no f*ck*ng reason.

 And you wonder why Kanye

 wear his Jesus pieces.

 (My life!)

 Cause that's Jesus people,

 and Game he's the equal.

 Hated on so much

 Passion Of The Christ need a sequel.

 Yeah, like Rockefeller need a Segal.

 Like I needed my father,

 (My life!)

 but he needed a needle.

 I need some meditation

 so I can lead my people.

 They askin' why?

 Why did John Lennon leave the Beetles?

 And Why every hood n*gg*

 feed off evil?

 Answer my question before this

 bullet leave this Desert Eagle.

[Chorus (Lil' Wayne)]

 And I'm grindin' until I'm tired

 And you ain't grindin' until you tired

 So I'm grinding with my eyes wide

 Looking to find,

 A way through the day

 The life of the night

 Dear lord you've take so many of my people

 I'm just wondering why you haven't taken my life

 Like what the hell am I doing right?

[Verse 2 (The Game)]

 We are not the same,

 I am a martian.

 So approach my Phantom doors with caution.

 You see them 24's spinnin'

 I earned them.

 And all the pictures of me and M I burned them

 So it ain't no proof that I ever walked through 8 Mile

and since their ain't no proof I never walked through 8 mile.

 Sometimes I think about my life with my face down.

 Then I see my sons and put on that Kanye smile.

 Damn I know his mama proud,

 and since you helped me sell my dream,

 we can share my mama now.

 And like MJB, no more drama now.

 Livin' the good life,

 me and Common on common ground.

 I spit crack,

 and n*gg*s could drive it outta town.

 Got a Chris Paul mind state,

 I'm never out of bounds.

 My life use to be empty

 like a Glock without a round.

 Now my life full

 like a chopper with a thousand rounds.

[Chorus (Lil' Wayne)]

 And I'm grindin' until I'm tired

 And you ain't grindin' until you tired

 So I'm grinding with my eyes wide

 Looking to find,

 A way through the day

 The life of the night

 Dear lord you've take so many of my people

 I'm just wondering why you haven't taken my life

 Like what the hell am I doing right?

[Verse 3 (The Game)]

 Walked through the gates of hell,

 see my Impala parked in front,

 with the high beams on.

 Me and the devil

 sharing chronic blunts.

 Listening to The Chronic album,

 playin' backwards.

 Shootin' at pictures of Don Imus

 for target practice.

 My mind f*ck*d up, so I

 cover it with a Raider hood.

 I'm from the city that made you

 Mother*ck*rs afraid of Suge

 Made my Grandmother pray for good

 and never made her happy,

 but I bet that new Mercedes could.

 Ain't no bars, but n*gg*s can't

 escape the hood.

 They took so many of my n*gg*s,

 that I should hate the hood.

 But it's real n*gg*s like me

 that make the hood.

 Ridin' slow in that Phantom

 just the way I should.

 With the top back

 and my Sox hat.

 I'm Paid in Full,

 the n*gg* Alvo couldn't stop that.

 Even if they brought the n*gg* Pac back,

 I'd still keep this motherf*ck*r cocked back.

[Chorus (Lil' Wayne)]

 And I'm grindin' until I'm tired

 And you ain't grindin' until you tired

 So I'm grinding with my eyes wide

 Looking to find,

 A way through the day

 The life of the night

 Dear lord you've take so many of my people

 I'm just wondering why you haven't taken my life

 Like what the hell am I doing right?

My Life [4X]

This Community doesnt sound like one I would want to live in because there is alot of violence and drug use. The artist seems indifferent on the well being of his community but he cares about his grandmother so he could feel it needs changing. This was an urban place because the artsist used the word "city" and "hood" many times in the song. During the song the Game said "like Rockefeller need a segal..... like I needed my father but her needed the needle" which ment he had no father support because he was doing heroin. It must've been hard for The Game to grow up with no fatherly support. The Game's community a hood in Los Angeles.
