That's How I'm Livin' (On Rox Remix) - Ice T[00:00:00]

I was born in new jersey I said it before[00:00:30]

But I guess nobody heard me[00:00:33]

My mother died young[00:00:35]

No sistas or brothas I was the only son[00:00:37]

When I was twelve my pops died too[00:00:40]

What a brotha was supposed to do[00:00:43]

They sent me out West[00:00:45]

To live with my aunt[00:00:47]

I guess they though it was the best[00:00:48]

But there was no love there[00:00:50]

Growin' with no moms[00:00:52]

I guess I was prepared to live in a vacuum[00:00:53]

The bedroom the kitchen the hall and the bathroom[00:00:56]

I didn't leave home much didn't like L A[00:01:00]

Didn't have no friends to trust[00:01:03]

Got busted to a school[00:01:05]

Blacks and whites I guess the sh*t was cool[00:01:06]

But in highschool I changed[00:01:09]

Didn't wanna bust didn't wanna play the game[00:01:11]

I walked to Crenshaw high sh*t was fly[00:01:14]

I hooked up with new cru[00:01:19]

Some brothas that knew what the f**k to do[00:01:21]

You might call it gang but we called it a set[00:01:24]

And it was our own thang[00:01:28]

The whole school was down[00:01:29]

And one way or another everybody f**ked around[00:01:31]

When the hardcore or not[00:01:34]

You wore the right color or your a** got shot[00:01:36]

That's how I'm livin'[00:01:39]

I did three years in and made close friends[00:01:49]

Havin' no love my homies came my only[00:01:53]

I was glad: a family I never had[00:01:56]

But I grew up fast got a girl on 10th grade pregnant[00:01:58]

Needin' cash I had to change my style[00:02:03]

Switched from bangin' to hustlin'[00:02:05]

No more goin' buckwild[00:02:07]

Had to get a cashflow[00:02:09]

But my hustle was weak it was a no go[00:02:10]

I join the army four years in that sh*t[00:02:13]

Be all f**ked you can be[00:02:17]

Came back to the hood[00:02:18]

My homies had done good[00:02:21]

Had elevated their game[00:02:23]

About 100 gees a lick no mothaf**kin' shame[00:02:24]

Passed for the jewels[00:02:28]

Baby sledgehammers with the tools[00:02:31]

I speak on this with a hesitation[00:02:33]

Even though it passed the statue of limitation[00:02:35]

That's how I'm livin'[00:02:38]

I checked the bank[00:02:47]

Bought a porsche and gear earn high streetrank[00:02:49]

But as I grew my whole crew fell thru[00:02:53]

Cops had us on the books as innerstate crooks[00:02:57]

Murder robbery rape escape the whole damn nine[00:03:02]

You robbed a ni**a blind[00:03:05]

I had too much juice I cut my boosters loose[00:03:07]

I was intread with the pimpgame[00:03:12]

Took on the ice-name[00:03:15]

But the pimpgame moved too slow[00:03:17]

Especially for a ni**a who was hooked on quick dough[00:03:19]

In one nite late I was in a carwreck[00:03:21]

And I was lucky to escape[00:03:25]

Hospital for teen weeks in bed almost dead[00:03:26]

And when I got well I got caught in a cross[00:03:32]

And got locked in a jailcell[00:03:35]

That's how I'm livin'[00:03:45]

They cut me loose[00:03:56]

And I had to change troops[00:03:59]

This time they didn't catch me[00:04:01]

Next time they'll strecth me[00:04:04]

Cause my time was gettin' short[00:04:06]

All my homies was in court[00:04:09]

Or locked in a hole this sh*t was gettin' old[00:04:11]

So I changed my life[00:04:15]

Putted down the gun and picked up the mic[00:04:17]

It took ten years to get from there to here[00:04:20]

But I still keep a gun cops got me on the run[00:04:25]

And they hate me more now[00:04:30]

Than they ever did before[00:04:33]

My homies came back from pen[00:04:35]

And we all worked together[00:04:37]

True friends but every once and while[00:04:39]

Some punk mistakes me as a junk[00:04:42]

And he gets in my face[00:04:45]

Wrong mothaf**kin' place[00:04:48]

And I ain't lyin' that's how you dyin'[00:04:50]
