How We Live
[Intro: Havoc & Styles P]
Yeah!
What up, son?
Havoc, what up n***a, good lookin' for the beat
I'ma talk shit over this one
Told you I got you my n***a
But um, I want you to let these n***as know why you in that top 5
This is my livin', n***a
Why you that n***a
It feel good in here
Yeah!

[Verse 1: Styles P & Jadakiss]
Second time around I'mma let the magic shoot
This time, it's off the Havoc flute yeah
I'm a general and criminal, y'all fags salute
I'm in the streets while y'all sweet like a bag of fruit
And I stick to my Timbalands like I'm Maganoo
Ya man lookin' like he want it, he can have it too
Tryna tell these muthafuckas they should do as do does
I been smoking haze just as green as Gazoo was
Sorta like the city of Gods
We be screamin out "we gon' make it" but I pity the odds
I'm like knock out Ned when I pop out led
But I even been around to pass Biggie cigars
So I smoked wit a legend
If you took the oath then the ghost is ya bredrin
Blowin smoke in the seven
Or maybe it's the hooptie in these pisshole slums
Just tryna kick my piece off of Kicko's drums
Ya know
[Chorus: Jadakiss & Styles P]
This is how we live
Smoking, drinking, hustling, thinking
This is how we live
Drug spots, projects, Jail cell stinking
This is how we live
Whole block run when they see cop lights blinking
This is how we live
Benjamins, grants, Washingtons, Lincolns

[Verse 2: Styles P & Jadakiss]
Die once, you live twice, die twice, you live once
Get the shit confused so I'm puffin on the big blunts
Kick it wit' the kid that be deep in the zone
It's the ghost, I got to go to sleep just to get home
I'm spiritually outta this world
Meet my lyrics on the darkside come back when the dutchie get twirled
I'm the alpha and omega of nice
I'm the messenger sent by the force at the head of the light
But Satan's ridin my back in the dead of the night
I be doin some crazy shit for some bread and some ice
God I'm tryna focus with my third eye lens
I smoke haze to see my brother when he blow that wind
And I'm a grown man so I know my sins
And n***as don't get the picture so do Kodak win?
The shit's over their head and under their nose
Not a star cause I'm a sun when it come to a flow
Ya Know
[Chorus: Jadakiss & Styles P]
This is how we live
Smoking, drinking, hustling, thinking
This is how we live
Drug spots, projects, Jail cell stinking
This is how we live
Whole block run when they see cop lights blinking
This is how we live
Benjamins, grants, Washingtons, Lincolns

[Verse 3: Styles P & Jadakiss]
I'm a rare individual
Represent my team till they put in me in the earth no air in my physical
I don't need to dream I live another life when I sleep it's so deep I'mma
Spare you the visual
Far from religious but my heir's name is biblical
Stay away from crabs, they don't care cause they miserable
School lil n***as
You could buy diamonds but I could play wit words that's a jewel lil n***a
Tongue sharp like a sword
I could get ya fam killed just off my word, that's the proper Art of War
Stay wit the Parker and the Porsche
I don't trust a soul cause n***as threw rocks up at the Lord
The cash ain't right there, the mask is right there
N***as try P, I'ma blast 'em right there
You don't want ya right ear next to ya Nike Airs
Said I'm from the darkside bringin the light here
Wha!
[Outro: Jadakiss & Styles P]
This is how we live
Wha! You know, n***as
Second time around, you know what time it is
This is how we live
It's all lyrics over here, n***a
Feel me, n***a!
This is how we live
And I'm in the hood for real, all day, all night, shit like that
This is how we live
Yo, Hav, once again, good lookin' out for the beat, n***a
This is how we live
SP the Ghost, ONE!
This is how we live
