[Intro: Trinidad Jame$] (Positive energy, that's all) Life, rap, it's a game! Trust me, it's a game (Fight fire with fire) Reality is not a game
[Hook: Trinidad Jame$] Life ain't shit like the rap game, I say, life ain't shit like the rap game (x2) Life ain't shit like the rap game, so, my nigga, why you rapping? (x2)
[Verse 1: Trinidad Jame$] I said, my nigga, why you rapping? Is you tryna make a change or you just want a chain? I'm just askin' (I'm just askin') I wish the bombings in Boston never happened Sometimes I wish, I never started rappin' It changed how my friends, started actin' And I ain't never change, since I started rappin' The crazy shit is, since I started rappin' Is that the same niggas hatin' is the same niggas clappin' And the same niggas hatin' is the same niggas rappin' And I pray for a change, but never seen the action Maybe, if I pray for a chain, the shit'll quicker happen Or maybe I'll just pray for a Range, so I can crash it I just wanna burn in the flames, and live through the ashes (x2) Cause...
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Trinidad Jame$] Niggas trying real hard, but them niggas ain't real And, when a nigga bein' real, them niggas ain't here I gotta talk about a whip? 26s on a Chevy? I gotta talk about a bitch? Now you niggas wanna listen? Y'all niggas chasin' hits, my niggas chasin' visions My niggas chasin' liquor, y'all niggas chasin' bitches And, if yo' life out of frame, nigga, change the picture And, while you niggas waitin', I'll let my nigga save it
