Like Yesterday-Robert E. Davis/*** C/Bun B/PSK 13

Like Yesterday - UGK We used to ride Cadillacs with the roof pushed back Open up my do' while paper moves we catch a contact Livin' our life wrong ni**a wasn't s'posed to live long These b**ches strong or be gone it wasn't for these rap songs We used to sell d**e cos time don't hold up How the f**k you gon' eat if you ain't got sh*t to fold up Better keep my mind on Donny young doin' 40 for cheddar We smoke the skunk and poppin' that trunk to make us feel better My paint done got much wetter than it was in '92 Bought mama a Benz for Christmas doin' sh*t you boys tryin' to do And even though we got fame we love to grip the grain Even though these hoes say that I change hey b**ch I'm still the same Dealin' with tha same things just in a new game Ain't touch no 'caine try and have sh*t like little James It's dedicated to the trill niggas that paved the way Stayin' high trying a hold on to yesterday I never thought that there would ever be a time When a man will wanna kill another man behind a rhyme I never thought that I would ever live to see Another man try to come and take my life away from me I never thought that I would ever have to deal With the fact that to protect my life somebody might get killed But I'll survive and I know I'm blessed to say I realize that tomorrow won't be like yesterday I remember this like yesterday Saturday nine o'clock uh Electric company backed up by schoolhouse rock sh*t Didn't have no bills then but now I got bills Seems like I'm only a bill and livin' only for skrill I was only 13 mannish used to run through some chicks Used to catch the bus to the majestic and watch kung fu flicks Little league basketball I'm hoopin' baby scorin' all the points After the game I'm chippin' in with the twins on the joints uh The lanky motherf**ker I'm growin' up fast My only dream was to somehow get a fold of cash uh These H town streets produced this game of mine Forever in a f**k you frame of mind I changed with the times now these boys come with 'plexes I'm screamin' 'til my dime baby mo city Texas I remember this like yesterday in jheris and braids Now these boys chopped it down for newer 20s and blades I never thought that there would ever be a time When a man will wanna kill another man behind a rhyme I never thought that I would ever live to see Another man try to come and take my life away from me I never thought that I would ever have to deal With the fact that to protect my life somebody might get killed But I'll survive and I know I'm blessed to say I realize that tomorrow won't be like yesterday As my day goes by I wish I could close my eyes And just expose myself to my past But I suppose I can't change the path that I chose Why would I wanna everybody knows I just tried to do right And keep it all tight in my bro's eye Watchin' 50s try and travellin' first class like the pros fly I'm lookin' 'round corners tryin' to see where my foes lay The master of the class like blowfly For really I'm so sly you probably wouldn't buy it Drugs I used to ride it used to hide it Used to sell it even tried it denied it To the end to my mama but eventually it came out Her baby son done turned the game out couldn't take the shame out her eyes All the lies all the excuses when your mama's cryin' it's all useless Boy you ain't ruthless you're just your mama's baby Who hopin' and prayin' that maybe things could be like yesterday I never thought that there would ever be a time When a man will wanna kill another man behind a rhyme I never thought that I would ever live to see Another man try to come and take my life away from me I never thought that I would ever have to deal With the fact that to protect my life somebody might get killed But I'll survive and I know I'm blessed to say I realize that tomorrow won't be like yesterday I never thought that there would ever be a time When a man will wanna kill another man behind a rhyme I never thought that I would ever live to see Another man try to come and take my life away from me I never thought that I would ever have to deal With the fact that to protect my life somebody might get killed But I'll survive and I know I'm blessed to say I realize that tomorrow won't be like yesterday
