I Be Thinking

(album: It's All On U, Vol. 1 - 1997)

[Intro Mannie Fresh, B.G.]
[M.F.] Wuz up?
[B.G.] Wuz happening (Wuz happenin')
B.G. 'bout to run it
[M.F.] B.Geezy in here
[B.G.] Ya ever wonder...how they be broke...
([M] Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful) [?] and loaded?
([M] Run it to 'em (Run it to 'em))
Put two and two together ([B.G.] Think, nigga)
Ya gotta maintain ([M] Ya got to maintain)
Ya either gon'...have things ([M] Have things (Have things)),
and be sober, or be loaded with nothing
([M] For sho' (For sho'))
Off top ([M] Run that there (Run that there))

[B.G.]
I live rough [?] I done had enough of doing bad
If I can recall, all my life, I've been on my ass
Unlock a bitch, and his wards are the graveyard
And in my ward, you can't help but to come apart
And all my boys got beef on the fucking block
And they draw heat from them niggas, plus we ducking cops
I try to clock 'cause that's all I know and slinging
But I got my Glock 'cause ain't no hanging there if you ain't banging
Gunshots be ringing, but I bump and bust 'til I let 'em know
I ain't no ho, and I ain't 'bout to start being no ho
I smoke herb trying to calm my motherfucking nerves
But I'm stressed, and so [?] I'll leave ya on the curb
I asked a nigga that I know to front a quarter bird
But I smoked dope again he said that's what he heard
Now that's jeopardizing, that nigga brains blown away
Niggas playa-hating [?] What kinda shit is that to say?
Fuckin'-up my pay, better get a nigga straight [?]
in a hurry
I'll have your mommy black eyes blurry
You better worry if you're dipping your nose in mine
Got these hoes in line, now these niggas gotta get in line
I can't mind dying, where I'm from, I live by the iron
On the block of Valence and Magnolia, it's hard times

[Hook B.G.]
I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober
I be loaded, thinking of condos
Now, maybe I could get a condo if I keep my nose closed

I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober
I be loaded, thinking of condos
Maybe I could get a condo if I keep my nose closed

I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober

[B.G.]
I want it [?] I'm picking your lock, coming through blasting
Gotta feed the animal [?] this bitch gots to have it
Where I'm from, there's no jive and you must be a survivor
Niggas ain't relying on no nine-to-fiver
Ruckus, beef, the ghetto is all I know
Hunger, no feast is all a young nigga know
Blow, get tore down, get a stressed nigga through
And this K will slow you down [?] any vest it will go through
My hood is tainted-up, it's full of pollution
Snorting was last year now a motherfucker shooting
Sticking they arm up, not giving a fuck
Trying to jack the armored truck, not giving a fuck
Around my way, it's a residential project
We all thugging, so just look around and see who die next
Man, I'm out the Melph [?] What am I supposed to do?
Stand alone, gotta watch these niggas close to you
I'm rapping, now I'm making money [?] I can't duck my niggas
Get vacated, don't come around to say fuck my niggas (Enough of that)
The same niggas that'll drown in that water for me
Slow down, and'll spank a nigga daughter for me
We still clique everything you break, you can't fix
We caught up in the mix, but V.L. still the shit
I represent mine in every motherfucking rhyme
You can't stop crimes 'cause Uptown is hard times

[Hook B.G.]
I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober
I be loaded, thinking of condos
Now, maybe I could still live in a condo if I keep my nose closed

I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober
I be loaded, thinking of condos
Maybe I could get a condo if I keep my nose closed

[B.G.]
That heroin hit my block; opened it like a earthquake
Niggas graduating on they fifteenth birthday
Some snorting, and some spiking it
That shit be cut heavy, and them niggas still be liking it
That [?] that shit is still sweet
But you gon' get your money's worth in that Saint T.
Or on Philip and C., or atop that CP3
But the B.G....working on kicking that D
Now, can I...collect my gain? Stack my change?
Can I...maintain and do this rap thing?
Yo, can I...kick it?

[Mannie Fresh]
Yes, you can

[B.G.]
Well, I'm gon' kick it [?] You bitches understand?
I'ma get my n's deep and...buy me a truck
Get high, get up instead of walking with that duck
I'ma let mine hang [?] let the Desert Eagle sing
Let it be known all over, it's a Uptown thang
Fulfill my wishes...with my hand on my nine
Push that big Expedition and get through hard times, nigga

[Hook x3 B.G.]
I be loaded, thinking of Range Rovers
Maybe I could get a Range Rover if I stay my ass sober
I be loaded, thinking of condos
Maybe I could get a condo if I keep my nose closed

[Mannie Fresh talking]
Keep your nose closed, ya heard me (ya heard me, ya heard me)
Off top (Off top, Off top)
