Score lyrics

Artist  : Dead Prez 
Song : Score



 Send "Score" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Know what I'm sayin
Life is like a game of basketball
They just want niggas to run jump and shoot

chorus:

The game, of life, is a struggle to survive
We live, to win, cause if we lose, than we die

verse 1:

What's the word for the day homeboy
It ain't nothin but this killin shit
Tryin to get this money right quick
You know how it is
Nigga tryin to eat food and live, smoke weed
Payin rent on my crib so I can breathe
Life is not about the quickest speed
What you achieve
Come to greed by the grief
And what you get is what you see
In your mind visually
And manifest physically
If you stick to it shit'll work out terrificly
Take me, everyday my life be hectic and stressful
Never really know if im'a ever be successful
But the best things you get out of life require
struggle 
If it don't you gettin hustled homeboy  
You gettin hustled
How I see it 
Anything you wanna be you can be it
If your mind can preceive it
And your heart really believe it
Than you half way there and all you got to do is
do it
And if you give it all you got there ain't really
Nothin' to it 

Chorus

Score, this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war

(talking in background)
Get your f**king heads in the game, please!
This season don't mean nothin if we lose this!
word up

Verse 2:
As a, black boy
Started out a bundle of joy
but quickly I grew playin with toys
Than you started makin noise as a youth
Tryin to figure out the truth
Behind the sh*t that the schools ain't tellin
First come rebellin, then come drug sellin
Juvenile court, 'cause you too young to be a
felon
 
Knew that everything around you was yours
But you gotta maintain the game of wealth that
the
World has in store
A wise man told you before 
You got the power to bring things to life black
boy
You can test it 
Everything you see is just a thought manifested 
But before you had a chance to know that 
You got arrested
And it all seems clear to you know, you can
breathe
It was different 
When you couldn't see the forest from the trees
If you follow your dreams you can accomplish
anything
If you always do your best then your destiny is
king
Of the world

Chorus

People don't let life, no no 
Don't let life mislead you
You have the power

People don't let life
Don't let life deceive you
You have the power

Yeah, score this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war
Score, this ain't no game this is war

Verse 3:

Life is like twistin' a blunt, it's how you roll
with it
Just figure out what you want and go and get it
anybody tryin' to stop you 
For tryin to do for you
That's your enemy dun 
The sun be right up in your crew 

That's true
Life is a thinking mans game 
Use your head for it 
Ain't no use in bein scared a shit
If you prepared for it
Go for what you know good
This whole wide world is your hood
Plus the universe 
Cause you was on the planet first

Score, this ain't no game this is war X4

Chorus

People don't let life, no no
Don't let life mislead you
You have the power

People don't let life 
Don't let life deceive you
You have the power
Just use your power

Don't be a fool
Don't ever lose your cool
You got the power
