(Malu on the beat!)

{Chorus}
Tell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing
I said, ell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing

{Verse I}
Yeah, look
I ain’t never been no street boy
But I grew up in these streets boy
Always been about the peace boy
Never needed me a piece boy
I know some ain’t been as fortunate
Hitting a lick to support their kids
But some of y’all fools just be warping it
Repping some colors like morphing kids
Look, I ain’t talking bout the figgas tryna make their way
That’s a whole nother topic for a whole nother day
Im referring to the ones, who just do it for fun
Who love the thrill, when you chilled looking down at the gun
Look, got other options but you wanna act hard
Knowing that’s not who you know that you are
All in the streets like you turned to a car
Knowing it’s tearing your mama apart
I know what the hood be like, yeah
You don’t wanna live that life, yeah
You don’t always win the fight
Strapped to a stretcher that’s gripping you tight, look
King of the hood for a little bit
Can’t nobody tell you different
Now all of the kids that you influence, look
They wanna follow that stupid ish

{PreChorus}
Committed to the system
That’s killing men and women
But you submitting in it
While they clearly puppeteering
They secretly been steering
With minimal resistance
Where’s your man in the mirror?
Is he running interference?
I said

{Chorus}
Tell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing
I said, ell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing

{Verse II}
Look yeah
I know that you think that you gotta bang (Word)
That’s the way you think that you’ll make a name (Yup)
Everyone know that you bringing the pain
Think you big daddy like your name is Kane (True)
Dudes who don’t know, well you’re snatching their chain (Yeah)
Matches your crown ‘cause you think you the king (Ha)
Gang banging, things change
Think you’ll still be king when you laying there slain? (Dang)
Playing as someone you know that you not (True)
They won’t be playing the day you get shot (Nope)
It’s hard to be real when you dead on the block
Photoshopped on a top next to Biggie & Pac
Don’t think that it just can’t happen
Till your soul crash K.I.A., killed in action
Caught you lacking, now they packing
And they laughing, this is it, Michael Jackson (Jackson)
Take it from me
I know some people who truly jacked up from just living that scene
Hearing real Gs
Teach you some lessons that deep down you know that you shouldn’t believe
Man, listen please
We got enough of us killed from just seeing the racist police
I know you see
How them crackers like to use you as reasons that we shouldn’t breathe

{PreChorus}
Committed to the system
That’s killing men and women
But you submitting in it
While they clearly puppeteering
They secretly been steering
With minimal resistance
Where’s your man in the mirror?
Is he running interference?
I said

{Chorus}
Tell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing
Tell me how you living
Are you losing are you winning? (Ay)
Life’s a game, you rolling sevens
I said, tell me how you living
What you giving, what you getting? (Ay)
You forever second guessing
