Same old shit dog just a different day
You know how niggaz do when we play how we play
It is not a fucking game!
A manand's gotta do what a manand's gotta do
If itand's fuck me nigga you know itand's fuck you
I kick it to shorty to try to help him understand (uhh)
Hit him with work cause yo thatand's my little man (uh huh)
He asked a few questions bout the game and i told him (yeh)
So when he made a bad move it was my place to scold him (aight)
Never told him nuttin wrong, kept it fair
Didnand't listen, so i might as well have been talkin to the air (damn)
Everybody makes mistakes, a mistake is aight
But if it ainand't, iand'ma tell you straight, time to say goodnight
Nobody likes to be played, regardless of the relationship
But shortyand's fuckin up big time, i hate this shit
Iand'm caught in the middle of, havin love for a lil nigga
Knowin whatand's expected of me as a, real nigga (damn)
My next move is crucial, what do i do?
How do i keep it real with shorty in my crew?
Didnand't want to kill him, so instead of puttin the mac on him
I did the only thing i could do, turn my back on him (aight?)
Chorus: dmx
Here we go again..
Same old shit dog, just a different day
Here we go again..
You know how niggaz do, when we play, how we play
Here we go again..
A manand's gotta do what a manand's gotta do
Here we go again..
So if itand's fuck me nigga, then you know itand's fuck you
[dmx]
Niggaz that i fuck wit, wanna get him dead
But iand'm cool with shortyand's peoples, so i let him live
Under normal circumstances, he would be a marked man
But i hit him with a grand, just didnand't shake his hand (ooh)
Go about your business (uh-huh) do what you gonna do (uh)
Be what you gonand' be, i wash my hands, iand'm through (aight?)
I can forgive i just canand't forget
Youand're on your own liland' man donand't ask me for shit (no)
If you paid attention to what i taught you then you good (uhh)
If i see you again, get it, understood?
Go and'head before i change my mind cause you know you should be dead
andquot;i just wanted to say --andquot; aight?!!!! go and'head!
Instinct told me to kill him but the saviour is
Iand'm a good nigga, plus i owed his peeps a favor (hmm)
But i also knew, the decision i just made (yeah)
Went against the rules of the game that we played (damn)
Chorus
[dmx]
I should have, followed my first instinct, cause i knew
Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do
Now this niggaand's fuckin with the competition (what?)
Ungrateful motherfucker, shoulda got him missin (what?)
This nigga got the nerve, to take my kindness, for a weakness
Gotsta get back on some street shit so i can creep this
Rat, when i act, take one, set him up, to take two
Get him there, take three, get him done
Wasnand't hard for me to get him where i wanted him, confronted him
{*barrel spins*} bzzzzzzzt, click! there was a bullet in one of them
Feelin lucky? click, looks like you are
Click click click, luck ainand't goin too far
What you did was put on another pair of shoes
And they just happened to be too big
What you did was stupid (damn) real fuckin stupid (aight?)
Well shorty i gave you a chance and what did you do?
Threw it back in my fuckin face so fuck you too *blam* aight?
Chorus 2x
