Man I thought it was a game
You spent your whole life frontin'
Walkin' 'round here tryna prove something
Everybody wanna hang but they couldn't really cut it
Actin' like a fool man you couldn't tell me nothin'
Man I thought it was a game!
First I get a little cash now they wanna get my info
Same dudes braggin' but where were they when I been broke? Huh?
I can't even hate I been both, they just want a Slice
Rest in peace to homie Kimbo!
Man, I tell it like I be it
You 'gon have to do like Mike and "beat it"
See I do this for myself and everybody else who needs it
Like I do this for my brother, but he'll never get to see it
Man I thought it was a game
You spent your whole life frontin'
Walkin' 'round here tryna prove something
Everybody wanna hang but they couldn't really cut it
Actin' like a fool man you couldn't tell me nothin'
Man I thought it was a game!
20 years or so after money, power, respect
Comes a new generation that's only chasing check
And just when you thought this was madness and had enough
Just remember half the nation is out there votin' for Trump
Now take a minute let that sink in,
Like what was you on? What was you thinking?
While half of our lives is on the brink
Before you know it now it's over, then you blink
Man I thought it was a game
You spent your whole life frontin'
Walkin' 'round here tryna prove something
Everybody wanna hang but they couldn't really cut it
Actin' like a fool man you couldn't tell me nothin'
Man I thought it was a game!
