Flipmode Squad - Do For Self lyrics

Hey Yo! Yo Sham! Yo SHAM! Yo, yo, yo!
Come here nigga, what's up, man?
Whats the deal, son? How you doing man?
Chilling man what you fucking with that
Cat over there for? Those are my niggas, son
Nah, don't fuck around with that nigga, yo
What you saying, god? I know that nigga
What? I gotta hold it down for my homes, son
Lemme talk to ya for a
Second, man, come here man, come here

I been through bullshit
Forced to pull shit at the enemy
If I did it homes, it was the end of me
Back in the days
I'ma say like around your age
What makes you figure that? Yo
I used to move the same way
Carrying guns, selling nickle chums to bums
Run away from home
Running through the streets with a chrome
Nigga, fuck that
You see I'm living on my own
My life is based on same
Place in the same zone
Thugs call me the Don but never feel my calm
At the same time you know it's
Hard for me to stay on
Yeah I'm feeling ya but at I
Gotta keep it real with ya
Only when you got dough
Niggas wanna be with ya they feel ya out
Find out about your whereabouts
Best friends turn enemies
Plotting to take you out
But it's all good because they show
Me love in the hood
I got this shit locked, don't worry 'bout it
Let me call shots

Aiyo, I walk by myself, I die by myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I do for myself, make moves for myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I walk by myself, I die by myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I do for myself, make moves for myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self

You see them cats that you run with
They always in some dumb shit
I'm telling you right now
Them cats shouldn't fuck with
Now who the fuck is you to
Tell me what to do?
Tryna start some real shit
Tryna make me flip on my crew
Go ahead and play hard-ass
Live your life fast tryna warn you
Seems like the street got you gassed
I got a problem right now
And I can't maintain
I got some big time cat tryna split my fame
Yo, you see me in the street
And wanna scream my name
With some caked up voice, yo I made my choice
Tim and his boys foul plans
Was to leave me moist so I stood up
Praying to God that this ain't my last luck
Yo they got me touched, call the blue cross
Cops ran up
"FREEZE!" Said, "Please don't move too much"
I think my man sat me up
On the fact shining too much
Left you wet up
Same motherfuckers used to friend up
Got you hospitalized, look how you end up
Hooked up to a respirator, body all bent up
Your moms called me at my
Home crying on the phone
Why the fuck you didn't listen?
Wouldn't be in this position
You still breathing
A chance to change the way you living
No more claiming the streets
I got a daughter to raise
If I would've listened to you
I would have never got blazed
Now I'm fucked up
Laying in this bed cramped up
Needles in my arm
Thinking how these cats play tough
Real thoughts in my head
Oh how I showed 'em love fuck it
From now on gotta keep my shit real calm
Plans to move up outta there and grab my fam
We be gone

Aiyo, I walk by myself, I die by myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I do for myself, make moves for myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I walk by myself, I die by myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self
I do for myself, make moves for myself
'Cause ain't nobody gonna help me
But my goddamn self

Yo, Sham? Yo
Wake up nigga, how you doing man?
Fucked up right now son, didn't you see
I saw you earlier in the day
Kicked it to ya man
The streets ain't no motherfucking joke
Nigga
Yo son, see what they did to my fuckin leg
Son? I'm tired of that bullshit, I'm sorry
Can't even lift my shit no more
Got holes up in this shit, you holy now?
You believe in the lord now, don't ya
Motherfucker? yeah
When you get outta this bitch you better
Know how to walk the path motherfucker
You grabbin me to get up outta here?
There's lot of things in this
World that you can do
You're too young for this bullshit
You hear me? I know definitely
When you get better nigga, you come out
Make your mama proud
Make yourself proud, you keep ya head up
Nigga definitely
You understand? I understand
What the fuck, nigga
At the end of the day you's a man
Act like one definitely
