Lyrics For Brownside's "Life On The Streets" From Their "Eastside Drama" Album.
Danger (Verse 1):
It's An Everyday Thing
On The East Of Town
Times Ain't Good
But They Won't Hold Me Down
I'm Out To Get Mine
And Won't Get Left Back
I Can't Get Me A Job
But I Could Get A Dope Sack
In My Hood Everyday
Gettin Off My Slangs
Not Really Trippin Off Money
Cause I Rather Gang Bang
And Kick Back With My Homeboys
Who Are Down With Me
From The Evil Side
Representing One - Three
And The Ways Of My Neighborhood
Ain't Nothin Nice
You Gotta Be Down
Or Else You're Paying The Price
Cause For Me To Do Good
Others Must Do Bad
What Makes Me Happy
Might Make You Sad
I Need A Straight Come Up
So I Can Earn My Way Out
Broke Motherfuckers Don't Carry No Clout
The Hood That I'm From
Is Where I Proved My Name
And The Streets Where I Live
Is Where I Got My Fame
O. Genius (AKA Nino Brown) (Chorus):
Don't Push Me
Cause I'm Losing My Head
The Way I Live
I Might End Up Dead
Danger (Verse 2):
I Can't Ever Forget
The Crazy Things That I've Done
A Young Gang Banger
Living Life By A Gun
Doin' Down Ass Things
To Make You Learn Quick
The Kind Of Crazy Shit
That Makes People Sick
Some Might Not Agree
But I Have To Survive
And By Me Doing Wrong
Is Gonna Keep Me Alive
So I Try Everything
To Learn The Tricks Of The Trade
Saving Up My Money
Cause I Don't Get Paid
I Know I Do Bad
But I Do It Real Good
Cause That's The Way I Learned
In My Crazy Ass Hood
Growin Up In The Streets
Of S.B. & L.A.
Where A Youngster
Couldn't Even Hang Around & Play
Drive-Bys - Drug Deals
Baseheads Everywhere
Crack Babies Being Born
And Their Moms Don't Even Care
Don't Think For A Minute
That This Shit Ain't Real
Cause Life On The Streets
Might Get You Killed
O. Genius (AKA Nino Brown) (Chorus):
Don't Push Me
Cause I'm Losing My Head
The Way I Live
I Might End Up Dead
Don't Push Me
Cause I'm Losing My Head
The Way I Live
I Might End Up Dead
Danger (Verse 3):
Times Are Bad
And Everything Is Hard
Got No Money
Don't Own No Car
With Some Old Ass Clothes
No Food To Eat
And Some Burnt Out Nikes
Coverin' Up My Feet
You Get Your First Impression
By The Way I Look
He's A Gangster, A Killer
And A No Good Crook
Just Because I'm Broke
Don't Mean I'm A Punk
Let Me Explain Myself
In Five Minutes Of Funk
Everything I've Done
That Has Been Wrong
I Just Kick Back
And Write It Here In My Song
Cuz Life On The Streets
Is Rough As Fuck
Vatos Tryin To Hit Licks
So They Can Come Up Real Tough
Rapping Is My Hustle
Alls I Need Is A Beat
So I Can Tell My Little Story
About Life On The Street
And I'm A Do What It Takes
So I Could Survive
This Is Mad Ass Danger
From The Brownside
O. Genius (AKA Nino Brown) (Chorus):
Don't Push Me
Cause I'm Losing My Head
The Way I Live
I Might End Up Dead
Don't Push Me
Cause I'm Losing My Head
The Way I Live
I Might End Up Dead
