Straight Up G For Ma and Pa

what the definition of a gangsta really is: It's said I'm a gangsta, I'm a straight up G, your a gangsta to, if you grew up like me, it's not by any means, not a life, about just being a thug, this is for every child, that never got a hug, a ma and a pa who never gave two s****, a shout out to yal, raised by a b****, stealin to eat, cuz we never had enough, some of us had to fight, we didn't get no love, no mommy and daddy, to tuck us in at night, to come to our games, or teach us how to ride a bike, well,hear me now, listen later, cuz when we come back for yal, gonna crush yal like a crater, they say to forgive, and try to forget, but lettin them off that easy, isn't something we're able to do yet, G ain't just for gangsta, it's also for G.O.D. the man your gonna visit, next time you all see me, holding so much animosity, something we don't repent for, cuz deep down we know, your sad pieces of s***, and will never be anything more, withering hearts of children, who were never even cherished, growing up retaliating, just wanna watch the parents perish, like all those years, they watched the suffering, tears and bruises , gotta keep covering, all we ever wanted in life, was a good ma and pa, but yal just wouldn't love us, so we say f*** all yal, see, gangsta is not all, about street credibility, it's a passion inside we share, a type of mentality, a definition into who we are, tattoos we have, covering up, all our childhood scars, the souls of innocent children, weak alone, but together strong, they think we won't succeed, but we will prove them wrong, gangsta is your confidence, taking pride within ones self, depending on your own instincts, not relying on somebody else, this is not just a word, or a youtube video, these are real life struggles, a side that can't help but show, we don't smile like jadakiss, although we atempt, not cuz our teeth are, but cuz our hearts chipped!
