E-40, IamSu! - Thou Wow lyrics

They wanna see me go back to my old ways
All I need is family, I'll be okay
I've been hustlin' for a while now
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow

When I was young
I wanted to be an ambulance or a fireman
But, I ended up being a
Product of my environment these suckas
They wanna put me up in retirement
Immune to candlelight vigils, hella violence
Everything I got, I deserve it
But, I'm far from being perfect (Perfect)
All the niggas in my assembly
All of 'em serve a purpose (Purpose)
A lot of you haters is bitches
I swear you got a cervix (Cervix)
You'll be dead before Christmas
You threaten me, i'd be hella nervous
I tell my young raccoons stop
Talking and just listen (Listen)
Read between the lines
The terms and conditions (Conditions)
Don't be fuckin' off your
Paper on these felines (Felines)
Some of these pussies got more
Miles than Delta Airlines, bitch

They wanna see me go back to my old ways
(Old ways)
All I need is family, I'll be okay (Okay)
I've been hustlin' for a while now
(While now)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow

If you a hustler, you probably kin to me
(Kin to me)
If you a sucka, stay the fuck away from me
(Way from me) every day I wake up
I'm wakin' up with a smile
Death is unpredictable
It could be any day now (Day now)
Being thorough is all I know
And all I practice (Practice)
When I go to Heaven
I wanna meet John the Baptist
(John the Baptist)
Drink some Jesus wine and chop
It up with Moses 'nem (Moses 'nem)
Bow down to thy Father and pay respect to Him
(Respect to Him)
I was raised in the center of the octagon
(Octagon)
The gravel, the soil, the yellow lines
(Yellow lines)
The inner city, less fortunate
Underprivileged (Underprivileged)
The junkies and fiends living under bridges
Bitch

They wanna see me go back to my old ways
(Old ways)
All I need is family, I'll be okay (Okay)
I've been hustlin' for a while now
(While now)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
(A thou-wow, for real)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow

Niggas be too busy pocket watchin'
And countin' other people's paper
Can't get no bread (No bread)
They bein' aware of theyself
They be in they own mind
They be in they own head (Own head)
To every reaction there's a reaction
And I ain't bullshittin', i ain't rappin'
Everybody I know packin'
Gangin', and flaggin', bangin' and trappin'
My intellectual intellect make me believe
(Believe)
That if you give, you shall receive
(You shall receive)
Some of my people out here
Starvin' and they hungry (Hungry)
Ribs touchin', bony (Bony)
In the name of the game I
Vow that I shall not
Back to my loved ones and line
'em up, scheme and plot, bitch

They wanna see me go back to my old ways
(Old ways)
All I need is family, I'll be okay (Okay)
I've been hustlin' for a while now
(While now)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah (A thou-wow)
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow (Bitch)

All I need is family, I'll be okay
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow
I'ma keep that shit a thou-wow
