My Life Songtext / Lyric

Just smokin' weed for hours

Drinking Hennessy for hours






That's when I started flipping shit, mixing at the EVE

In '83 World Class beats for free

I hooked up with this fool slinging cookies and shit, just rookies and shit

Stomping out the CPT

It was five niggas showin' muthafuckas the streets

Picked up this cat from Dallas then we went back east

Shit was wild when we broke them muthafuckas a piece

They said 'as long as you don't sing that shit about the police'

Now back on the coast, I don't bother no one

I keep strictly with the business 'til that shit gets done

Makin' money muthafucka, supposed to be havin' fun

But my faculty got fucked cause we fucked off one

They got me drunker than a skunk gettin' paid and shit

Never really considered what was made and shit

Like a Renegade and shit, thanks to shit

Niggas couldn't fade muthafuckin gansta shit

Ice Cube was performin', yeah he ain't no joke

Him and a bunch of Brooklyn niggas servin' nothin' but dope

And we all stayed down, we all kept winnin'

Studios and hoes was just the beginnin'



In sunshine

(Yeah, I'm just tryin' to live)

My life, my life, my life, in the sunshine

(Yeah, I gotta live)

My life, my life, my life



They said them niggas was real look how they ballin' and shit

When the business get up in it, it's all new shit

Make sure it's straight cause you gon' hate when yo' shit fake

Be like I can't fuck with that, back to servin' them cakes

I went to the liquor store so I could get me a drank

Then I ounce and just bounce get some pussy and thank

I see my nigga D.O.C. him and the security ballin'

In one of his foe's that muthafucka was crawlin'

He holla'd and shit but I can't hear that nigga jawin'

So I said hold up nigga, got my shit, we all in, he said



These papers fucked up my nigga you can check it out

If yo' shit fucked too let's put a home fuck and record sell



I got his information and went on my way

Went home and realized, shit I'm givin' paper away

Then there's a knock at the door, my brother Warren G

With some niggas out of Long Beach called 213

We started workin' on Deep Cover, said fuck it, we made it

They played it and they played it, got faded and replayed it

They said it's the shit, G funk shit be knockin'

The Row was bouta' drop and it was on and poppin'



In sunshine

(Yeah, I'm just tryin' to live)

My life, my life, my life, in the sunshine

(Yeah, I gotta live)

My life, my life, my life

Just smoking' weed for hours

Drinkin' Hennessy for hours
