Minnesota Og

MINNESOTA OG by BambiLynn'14 We need to bring some OG back to the game They say only playas change, the games stays the same But that ain't true, and it smells bad too I've watched and thought and come up w this notion Staying true to me is failing thug devotion OG principles need to get back in track Stop violence and hate, bring respect, g.p., and true hustling back! All this hatin and violence can hit the door Let's define what OLD SCHOOL GANGSTAS stood for There was standards and rules for all OG And to fit in the circle, you had to be... True to the game w caliber and class Not recognizing popcorn, gorilla, gutter, or trash No one took from their home to invest in the game (insane) You put your all in your home then hustled to come up or keep yo standard of living the same The game kept severe poverty out of the life Especially for kids whose dads walked out on their wife Back then the only out was to play ball Working only for a few gifted and tall OG's didn't hate, had each other's backs Supporting and competeing a little in building stacks No pulling guns If one in the circle did wrong or violated It was worse when OG's shut them out into starvation Paying in shame, and being left out and without Teaching a lesson instead of ending lives is better without doubt Violence puts everything in the spotlight Stopping all hustle, all money, having to set it down out if sight When you take a life, you end yours too Original purpose defeated, no life, no money you fool When our own turns on itself~something's terribly wrong Bring some OG back is the point of this song Treat one another with love and respect Deaths only a heartbeat away, on that you can bet Stop all this killing and hate, have each other's back Burning your own bridges isn't the right fight or attack No hustle or game should be how you live Or the legacy passed down to your kids with nothing to give It should only be used as needed to come up and do more Making things better for our families, not killing them to even the score Don't take from the kids, settling for gutter and trash Be true to you and the game, with caliber and class Do what you do to come up, but keep growing past the game Fight to be better, not each other, keep home and family sane
