Streets Is Callin'

(album: You Got Served - 2003)

[Omarion:]

uh, yea, once again

[Chorus:]

I've been going through somethings (ohhh),
I struggled with my inner man (yea,yea), I hustle, I'll do what I
can to get this money,(uh,yea,listen)I know I promised you somethings (somethings),
There's gotta be a better way,
It's not easy to make that change,
The streets keep calling me

[Verse 1:]

Last night trying to make it home (make it home),
I get this call on my phone (on my cell),
Stop yelling Slow down, I can't understand a word you saying,
Did ya say my nigga got hit? (in the head),
Did ya say he didn't make it? (is he dead),
Please tell me you know who did this, I'm on my way and somebody's gonna get it
Mash the pettle on the highway-speeding
Heard my baby in the back ground pleadin,
Come home and leave it alone
It's out of the question girl it's on
What about your new born child,
And ya know that he was wild?
I don't wanna hear this shit right now, when they just stretched my nigga out

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]

By my name saying how you gonna get paid,
No education equals minimum wage,
Minimum wage equals minimum pay,
And you know real niggas wanna play,
Won't you come on and move this way,
School don't garuntee a higher pay,
That's the shit that'll get me locked away,
Man they trying to give a nigga all day
Now I'm out here everynight coming in late,
If you slip then I'm coming for the take,
It's going fast and I need to hit the breaks,
The greater the risk the more you make,
All my thoughts are in the clouds, what about just shutting down,
But girl I really can't quit right now,
Notice on the door they trying to throw us out.

[Chorus]

[Hook:]

Although (although),
I was raised right (ooooo),
Still these streets aint nothing nice they can't change the coast of life,
And you know that i know (i know),
That I must grow (must grow),
See my kids grow,
But still the streets is all I know

[Chorus 2x's]
