How Long Can It Last Lyrics - Underground Kingz - Ugk

Dear Lord, I know You don't condone 

The things I be doin' out here in these streets 

And I hope that, I pray that You can overlook 

The wrong that I had done in my life 

I don't know no other way to survive out here 

I got a whole bunch of people dependin' on me 

Just walk with me, walk with me 

Busslin' and gamblin', hit licks scramblin' 

Bricks, I'm out here handlin', I'm pimpin' and I'm payin' the rent 

Didn't choose this dirty game, this dirty game, it chose me 

Every city love cocaine, they'll get it from him 

If they don't get it from me

So I get cross-country with that thang 

Makin' that crisp, lettin 'em hang 

Bangin' that 'Pac, if I die tonight, least mama know I didn't die in vain 

'Cause I put up sum from every sale so all my children can live well 

Might go to heaven, might go to hell 

But just put me in woodgrain lane Deville 

I wonder sometime how life would be if it was no such thing as D 

But then I put that sweet down 'cause that bullshit don't apply to me 

'Cause out here on the real streets a dreamer always stay sleep 

'Cause out here the strong survive 

And now they didn't die from thankin' weak 

Gotta play for keeps, gotta play it hard, still tryna get right with God 

Still read my Bible lone 'cause Reverend do wrong, still livin' fraud 

Tonight if I get down on my knees 

And ask the Lord to forgive me, please 

You thank He gon' hear me? 

'Cause tomorrow I'm still gon' be slangin' ki's

Lord, I'm just a G 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

I just can't give it up 

I'm riskin' all out in the streets 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

See, I was born in the ghetto, manye, I was raised in the hood 

And unless you lived it yourself, it just can't be understood 

People think hustlin' is cool or hustlin' is live 

They don't understand hustlers only hustlin' to survive 

They wished they lived in the 'burbs, wished they didn't have to hang 

Out on corners in low-income house in projects and slang 

They wish their daddy was home, mama wasn't on drugs 

And they didn't have to grow up to be dealers and thugs 

Po' children got aspirations and dreams just like the wealthy 

But it's hard when that environment you live in ain't healthy 

You ain't givin' no hope, nobody showin' you pride 

And you live with all this anger and frustration inside 

Dog, don't let nobody tell you what you can or you can't do 

Just 'cause they funky ass couldn't do it, they ain't you 

You can be who you wanna be, live life how you feel 

Just put your faith in the Lord, now that's keepin' it trill fo' real 

Lord, I'm just a G 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

I just can't give it up 

I'm riskin' all out in the streets 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

I wonder if it's a heaven up there for real G's 

For all the niggaz in the game that's been slangin' cheese 

For all them boys on them swangers and their fifth wheel 

I'm out here riskin' my life, niggaz shife but I stay trill 

I pray so much, I wonder if the Lord love me 

I think He do but I'm so caught up in my thug deep 

The feds bug me, followin' me around for three 

Niggaz couldn't catch me so they hit me with conspiracy 

You know that that's the other level of the game 

Ain't got shit on me but some niggaz said my name 

So here they come, they thang tight 

They playin' shife, no Bun, givin' me life 

I ain't goin' back, I'm a make 'em kill me 

I'ma bust back, fuck the pen, you feel me? 

Wish I can hug my momma and kiss my baby girl 

I know it's a better place than livin' in this dirty world 

Lord, I'm just a G 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

I just can't give it up 

I'm riskin' all out in the streets 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

Some people win and some people lose 

Some always cryin' the blues, yeah 

Some people win, some people lose 

Some always bein' misused 

Lord, I'm just a G 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

Just can't give it up 

I'm riskin' all out in the streets 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

'Cause I need You, Lord, right now 

I need You, right now 

Need Ya, I need Ya, I need Ya 

I need Ya 'cause I'm goin' and livin' too fast, yeah 

Lord, I'm just a G 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

I just can't give it up 

I'm riskin' all out in the streets 

Out here livin' fast 

How long can it last? 

Out here livin' too fast, how long can it last? 

I can't get up, Lord, can You help me? 

Lord, can You help me? Can You help me? 

Can You help me, right now, yeah
