Cold World (寒冷世界) (Xplicit Album Version) - Xzibit[00:00:00]
Justine 19 just got clean[00:00:20]
Fresh outta rehab with self-esteem[00:00:23]
She ain't felt this good in a while[00:00:26]
A new leash on life a vibrant thang a beautiful smile[00:00:27]
Used to run with a circle of friends who was skeleton thin[00:00:31]
Sniff white lines off powerful men[00:00:34]
But see all that's a thang of the past she got class[00:00:36]
And be damned if she'd let herself burn and crash[00:00:39]
She ain't from money so she startin from scratch[00:00:41]
It's hard working for scraps[00:00:43]
It take everything she got not to relaspe[00:00:44]
Locked down in 9 to 5 but at the 9 to 5[00:00:47]
She get sexually harrased and chastised[00:00:50]
Boss is a married man she won't touch him[00:00:52]
Frustrated angry man she won't f**k him[00:00:54]
She's out of her job at Basket Cakes[00:00:57]
Least it came wit an 8 2 lines to the face[00:00:59]
God Damn [00:01:02]
It's a cold cold world and you know it[00:01:03]
Niggaz will lay you down and take your bread yeah and you know it[00:01:07]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it [00:01:12]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it yeah[00:01:18]
He was on his own at a very young age[00:01:23]
When he learned from the streets made everything change[00:01:25]
See he came up with hustlers lost his religion[00:01:28]
It's funny how money can make a ni**a think he livin[00:01:30]
I ain't talkin paper like Jigga or Dre[00:01:33]
It's more like 7500 9 ounces of lle'[00:01:35]
That's what he say he can get for the flip they thought the deal was legit[00:01:38]
But he stuck him and split in deep sh*t[00:01:42]
Now his mother work for minimum pay[00:01:44]
Live a positive way she the first one at church every Sunday[00:01:46]
Blind to the needs of her son he's a gatling gun[00:01:49]
In the streets jackin niggaz for fun[00:01:52]
It's a non-stop search through the hood but can't catch him[00:01:54]
They found out where mom stayed and went steppin[00:01:57]
The evil that men do but still we continue[00:02:00]
With death and dishonor for the all mighty dollar it's so cold[00:02:02]
It's a cold cold world and you know it[00:02:05]
Niggaz will lay you down and take your bread yeah and you know it[00:02:10]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it [00:02:15]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it yeah[00:02:20]
He was 13 brought up in Baghdad[00:02:25]
Ate with his right and made money with his left hand[00:02:28]
Prayed to the East 5 times daily[00:02:31]
His mother and father just had a new born baby[00:02:33]
Now his father was an Imam who carried the weight[00:02:36]
And built his family on 5 pillars of faith[00:02:39]
Never trippin off Western ways it meant nada[00:02:41]
Pilgramige to Mecca to circle around Kabba[00:02:44]
300 miles away British troops hit Basra[00:02:47]
His cousin waged jihad and died with honor[00:02:49]
He heard about the buildings on 9-11[00:02:52]
And a man named Bush on a search for weapons[00:02:54]
Now here come the U S to crush Saddam[00:02:57]
Wit 88 thousand tons of missle and bombs[00:03:00]
But his family's too broke to move or find shelter[00:03:02]
If they all had to die they would die together and that's cold damn[00:03:05]
It's a cold cold world and you know it[00:03:08]
Niggaz will lay you down and take your bread yeah and you know it[00:03:12]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it [00:03:17]
Only two choices you can give it up or you can just die with it yeah[00:03:23]
