Irv Gotti

[Bridge: Black Child & Case]
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'm a be a n***a for life
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'm a be a n***a for life

[Chorus: Ja Rule]
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world, it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, heh
'Cause (Yo) I'm a n***a for life

[Verse 1: Ja Rule]
Who that chipped out?
Twenty-one year old, hot commodity
Coming out of a bum deal lottery
With a flow like sodomy
Put it on your bitch ass quite properly
I suggest you keep all eyes on me
And don't sleep as it is I'm highly critique
Pussy, money, murder it's part of my mystique
You feelin' me, this here is one of Queens elite
Predecessor of the street
While you munch, I eat
Ja's here
The n***a you love, but still fear
I done been there, done that
Now n***a, it's my year
I can leave you on the clear view
If you ain't yet clear
Matter of fact if you breathin' be glad you got air
Shut the fuck up, when grown folks is talkin', you hear?
Or get your shit blown, baby
From mouth to ear
Don't fear, when you smoke weed and fuckin your wife
Why? 'Cause I'm a n***a for life
[Chorus: Ja Rule]
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, heh
'Cause I'm a n***a for life
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, 'cause I'm a n***a for life

[Verse 2: Ja Rule]
Spare yourself the reality of an ass whippin'
That I'm givin' when I be gettin' tight and start flippin'
On your bitch ass n***as who like forming a cipher
It gets me hyper
Want the real? I'm a slice ya!
Light ya ass up with sixteen or more
Slugs coming from my snub nose Bulldog
Raw, to the core, let's lay down some laws
This is Ja's house, bow down or bring the war
Motherfuckers
Y'all don't want to touch what's hot
Whatever it be
The mic, the Glock, the drug spot
Like a bitch, you scared of life and takin' chances
And right now, you showin' more ass then an exotic dancer
The answer is this, n***as don't wanna touch
Ja live, stronger then a fucking coke rush
See on the streets we be killin' n***as like cash, you heard
I.N.C., n***a, it's Murdaaa!
[Bridge: Black Child & Case]
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'm a be a n***a for life
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'm a be a n***a for life

[Chorus: Ja Rule]
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, heh
'Cause I'm a n***a for life

[Verse 3: Ja Rule]
N***a, I live amongst the thoroughbreds, was raised to blaze lead
If you get shot, play dead and put two in his head
Known to pasteurize and criticize a n***a size
Look him right in his the eyes and leave him dead where he lies
Come through mobbin' like Crips from Compton
We're all in burners and all sippin' on Gin, fuck flossin'
N***a, I'm tossin' iron
And if you ain't buyin'
Then you're dyin'
For denyin'
I'm so inspirin'
To the youth, see I'm settin' it straight
Lettin' them know never to step on nothin' less than an eighth
And the longer it takes, somebody is gonna die for it
The streets is watchin', Jigga warned you, don't ignore it
Cause only n***as holdin', go JAP and blow yen
With the six double-oh
Fresh out the pen
Brandishing the steel for the ice
Holdin' my dick, talkin' shit, shootin' dice
A n***a for life
[Ja Rule Talking]
So whatchu sayin' is
What the fuck is a n***a?
Rob a bitch, slap a bitch
All that shit

[Chorus: Ja Rule]
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, heh
'Cause I'm a n***a for life
For life we gonna be n***as
Fuck the world it's yours my n***as
Load the nine and blaze my n***as
Yeah, heh
'Cause I'm a n***a for life
