Journey Through The Life Lyrics - Forever - P. Diddy

Yo, Yo 

Gansta, gansta 

Gansta, yo 

That's right 

Journey through the life of some real niggas 

Some real niggas, you'll never see what I've seen 

When I sleep, I dream of bodies in streams of blood 

Naked bitches, dead nigga's ghost, Feds with toast 

Knockin' my door down sweat poor down my body 

Roast from the heat so I soak my sheets 

Wake up shiverin', pull my hoe close to me, she sexy 

Every night is different pussy since my girl left me 

And I tried to make her stay with me, but I stay busy 

And her friends are cut throats, they deep throat to lay with me 

I reminisce how I miss a stare in this space 

Resort to the lips of a stripper, sprayin' their face 

Lampin' in a mansion, home alone 

I hear footsteps, shit I kicks just not lyrics 

I hold a fifth, wonderin' if ten shots can stop spirits 

If nigga's try to rob me then I won't hear it 

'Cause it's different from the streets, I'm missin' my hood now 

Missin' all the blocks 'cuz I'm surrounded by woods now 

It's supposed to be good now 

It's like I'm walkin' tight rope and can't look down 

Fire below me, now the fantasies I have for women are unholy 

Success, thousand dollar bottles impress 

Models with fat ass and big breasts 

Floor seats, Knicks vs. Nets, private jets 

Millionaire heir to Antigua, with Ananda, the MTV diva 

Nas, how do we survive all this mess? 

(I didn't survive) 

East vs. West the rap game where words became flesh 

A whole pound of herb won't dissolve my stress 

Still I ride to the death, love hip-hop 

'Cause Afrikabababa was def, a lot of respect 

Feel Me? Fuck to the rock, Sean John jury 

I got the same hands of crap platinum and the crap pyramids 

Write about the black experience, sell it to Marimax 

Tell me if you feelin' that 

Take a journey through the life of these real niggas 

The things that they seen it would thrill nigg 

If you've seen what they've seen, you would wonder 

Through the rain and the pain and the thunder 

By the time that you realized that it's goin' down 

You may find yourself going underground 

When they see that this life is upon us 

We would see that there's no one that we can trust 

You can never see what I see, motherfucker 

Beanie Sigel, the realest nigga from the streets was taught 

Stay cased up nigga, stay deep in court 

Reminiscin' on that cold cell, deep in thought 

Gettin' skinny, couldn't eat, 'cause the meat was poor 

Y'all niggas couldn't live my life, I've been through it 

Stretched up in hospital beds, fed fluid 

Two bullets hit my leg, one passed through it 

Saw the blood and the hole in my calf, looked through it 

My life's no joke, I don' played dice with soap 

Upstate the case niggas slice your throat 

Wear your boxers in the shower when you guard your soap 

I done seen the biggest nigga's in the yard get broke 

I done took blocks through war, took blocks for fall 

Took blocks to Wall for box of raw 

What you think 33 in the glock is for? 

Black fatigues, skullies and binoculars, 

C4, block your doors, nigga's can't stop this war 

I show you fagots what this Swartz is for 

Hidding spots in the door for the glocks is for 

Read the papers, '94 I took the cops to war 

Half of y'all niggas livin' a lie 

Only reason you switchin' up your druid is 

'Cause you keep gettin' robbed 

I looked that nigga in the eyes 

Before I send him to God 

Beanie Sigel, desert eagle 

The realest nigga alive 

Take a journey through the life of these real niggas 

The things that they seen it would thrill nigg 

If you've seen what they've seen, you would wonder 

Through the rain and the pain and the thunder 

By the time that you realized that it's goin' down 

You may find yourself going underground 

When they see that this life is upon us 

We would see that there's no one that we can trust 

Aiyo, Aiyo, gansta, gansta 

The Bible has words that Christ wrote 

Evil men sacrifice goats 

I speak all my life under oath 

Since a kid, troublesome, thrownin' shit at little girls jump ropes 

Bustin' B-B Guns at stray cats, that was way back 

Watched it die, covered in flies 

Then I picked up a stick, try to dig in it's eyes 

Makin' dirt pies, na, being buggy eyed shit 

And every other nigga that rap, sound like my shit 

I wear chrome 45's with ice on the grip 

I don't shoot it, I roll with killers and criminals 

With heroin habits they picked up from the penile 

They let you have it, all I do is give them a smile 

Lifestyles of the realest, you ain't ruthless you bitch 

I got a pine box just your size, I know it'll fit 

Your whole life's a mistake, stop holdin' the pen 

Kill yourself, come back as a man over again 

'Cause in this lifetime I'm reignin', slay men 

Leave your whole body cold 

Your nails grow long, you get gray skin 

May this nigga rest in peace, Amen 

I run with brave men, straight out the housin', we wildin' 

Names engraved in the pavement 

Brick building, grown ladies jump off the roof 

Nigga get paged, then murdered at the phone booth 

New York streets made me nigga, it's crazy nigga 

Take a journey through the life of these real niggas 

The things that they seen it would thrill nigg 

If you've seen what they've seen, you would wonder 

Through the rain and the pain and the thunder 

By the time that you realized that it's goin' down 

You may find yourself going underground 

When they see that this life is upon us 

We would see that there's no one that we can trust
