I'm like a 454 with the four on the floor Deuce coupe comin' at ya avoiding the capture Far from stock I'm chopped and ready to rock In the city of steel catch me cruisin' down the block But nowadays is difficult I'm out on my own Drive an 86 jetta hopin' that I could do better But my car keeps me humble in the concrete jungle Despite the wear and tear it seems to always get me there
Rebuilt the motor 'cause she decided to blow And what do you know someone stole my stereo When it's time to go I put my foot on the floor Let the diesel do the work I ain't complaining no more Highways and straight-aways off roads and open roads No matter where I go I'll still be makin' the show And it's kinda like life and life treats you good It's not what on the outside it's whats under the hood
Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor
It doesn't matter what you drive it's that you drive what you got Discipline you could win just let the tires spin and begin The journey of life with each stride meet me on the other side Let me know when you arrive sometimes we collide Be sure that you're insured got the back up plan alternative program Who I am doesn't reflect material wealth my vehicle approaches stealth All the fools want to show off and shoot off their mouths (I'm comin' with the wickedness so I can take them out with my style style style style style when I bust the true school watch this hip hop)
Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor
Won't stop drivin' till it's over still be crusin' when the sun goes down Won't stop drivin' till it's over still be crusin' when the sun goes down
Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off ain't never getting lost Which way will I turn when roads cross Put the pedal to the metal a little more and it's scary But one thing's for sure keep my foot on the floor
Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off Put the pedal to the medal and I'm off Pedal to the medal and I'm off
With a '62 bird and I'm out like that and I'm out With a '62 bird and I'm out like that and I'm out
Life is a struggle when it rains it pours oh when it rains it pours Life is a struggle when it rains it pours oh when it rains it pours
So here I am it didn't happen overnight I had to pay my dues like everybody else in this life So get a life is what they tell you at first you got to make your own decisions with the music you Disperse hip hop became a part of my life it was the breaking that started me off doing things right and Everyday I'd practice so damn hard I'm pulling moves by precision on point just like a dart picked up The mic seems I got another talent I was soon to be expressing myself just with every ballad and all kinds of People told me stop but in the end people stabbed me in the back even those who were friends and even at The studios producers started trippin' tried to make a dollar with gimmicks tried to change my image. How's that they picked the wrong emcee that's how I made it on my own that's how I made it on my own
[Chorus:] Life is a struggle when it rains it pours, oh when it rains it pours. Life is a struggle when it rains it pours oh when it rains it pours, Not gonna bother with the down side 'cause I've been there before traveling up and down these roads I know when it rains it pours
So here it is seems I got nothing to lose should I lay down and die or should I stand up and fight Should I say what I believe should I say it and leave or should I go on with pretending and blending with other Beings now everybody knows that money rules the world without money to make money got to rely on The skills gotta focus when it's hopeless and block out all the critics and block out all the critics and Block out all the critics when you're down you're down and when you're out you're out sick and tired of All those peoples who keep running off their mouth with the hypocritical minds so quick to point The finger what goes in one ear often goes out the other and it's ruff when no one's watching your back when No one cares where you're at when no one 's feeling my pain and my pain exceeds the limit seems The light has diminished and you can't get nothing finished in the end You still don't know what to do haters with the attitude get a big ***** you
