Blessed By the Game lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a game of cat-and-mouse in the Bay
Everybody know where everybody stay
Somebody didn't make it to the house
Somebody got shot in they mouth
Gotta keep you a thumper, on the tuck, on the under
Can't be shinin' too flossy, they'll turn you into a body
Can't be stuntin' too often, they'll turn your car to a coffin
Have you coughin' up blood while you was smokin' your bud
And sippin' your barre, or should I say lean
Him and his ho, now it's a crime scene
I'm a master of reality
Rap about good times and casualties…UH!

[Chorus]
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game)
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game)

[Verse 2]
This morning, the Lord tapped on my head
Said "If it wasn't for me, you would be dead"
Got up out my bed, got on my knees and thanked Him
I was hecka scared, it was cloudy and rainy
When it come to communication, you gotta be smart
Put your pride to the side and have a heart-to-heart
With your family and folks, your friends and your foes
Life can be short or taller than a stripper pole
I'ma get my sh*t together, bruh, I promise, I betcha
I'm slappin' E-40, don't shoot the messenger
Pack a MAC or a .40 just in case they test ya
Watch out for the Porky, pigs, they'll arrest ya
Some crooked, corrupted, attitude like "f*ck it"
Some do they job and care about the public
I'm a master of reality
Rap about good times and casualties…BIATCH!
[Chorus]
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game)
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game)

[Verse 3]
Techniques and tactics, mammoth mathematics
Runnin' through paper like it's a laxative
Since I toddler, valued a dollar, ya hear me?
I'm the same the dude, I ain't an impostor, ya feel me?
When you get on your feet, don't forget your peeps
'Cause they the ones that hold a n*gga down in the streets
When it's all said and done my testimony ain't gon' be phony
Sometimes I lose count on how many people owe me money
Forget about it, hustla, just love 'em and keep it pushin'
Never know when you gon' need a brother, we hoodlum
Boss, not a sucker, I love my loved ones, we folks
My bloods and my cousins grew up together, so dope

[Chorus]
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game)
From the bottom, and I ain't ever changed
From broke to having my change, mayne
Get up and get it, don't always place blame
I've been blessed by the game (The game), UH
