[Intro]
That's how it be happenin'
That's how it be happenin'
That's how it be happenin'
That's how it be happenin'
[Verse 1]
Now this fools name was Jerrel, seems he was doin' swell
Over the years where he sell, this built up them clientele
My nigga was gettin' big, he slung ever since a kid
And always got glamourized for all of the shit he did
He had a bad attitude, nigga selfish and rude
One day he got in a fight with a goon and he killed the fool
That's when A.T.F. got hot, surveillance up on the block
They knew he was runnin' shop, but this nigga wouldn't stop
Jerrel was a knucklehead, he said muthafuck a fed
Look come if you wanna come and off with you bitches head
Surely them people came, get down on your face and hands
They took the dope and choked Jerrel with a rope man
He thought he would go to jail, five O took the bitch to hell
They took the dope and said he got crossed in drug sale
[Chorus]
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
[Verse 2]
The next one is Sharolin, addicted to heroin
Gave birth to her son at fifteen and now she scared of him
Look he was a balla' so, that made her a stupid hoe
I heard he sold his dope out a house in the Calliope
Stung him for much a furl, then shot it up with Earl
That dope bust her heart and that's how Sharolin left the world
Now guess what her son do, he snorted boy too
He robbed some nigga that brought that drama to his whole crew
That multiplied enemies, one of 'em slangin' keys
And they got some boys that got boys that strapped with artillery's
Now he down on his knees, beggin' Lord help me please
That nite he got on that dope and went out he was off his Ps
Walkin' without a gun, they caught him round hit and run
Pulled out the Tommy gun, knockin' holes in his fuckin' lungs
[Chorus]
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
[Verse 3]
Nigga done throwed the cross and the boss, be the nigga stepped on
So he hired five killas that snort up that heroin
To keep his self from being affected
Whoever mentioned his name got they head-bust on next shit
That next hit, he sent was up in the second line
Dat Lexus pulled up shells started flyin'
People started runnin' and cryin' lyin'
In tha street was tha one that they came for
Bystanders got hit up, so a kid in this drug war
That was five, so she couldn't survive
Homicide said where they at to everyone outside
But in them killas' eyes, they on that dope so it ain't nothin'
Reincarnation is the subject of their discussion
Shit somebody snitch them people found the location
Caught two out of the five they got me down at the station
Boss man say fuck them niggas and show nuts
One of them niggas snitch, one of them nigga hush
Now tha boss gotta pack up shop and leave town
'Cause the niggas that he know upstate would shank him down
[Chorus]
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
Caught up in the game but you see how it came back to him
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they snatched him
[Verse 4]
Niggas mad 'cause we bumpin', my nigga Jeff they jumped him
I know one of them niggas and when I catch him I'm gon' stomp him
Look all this here heart don't pump no pussy
I'll be forced to do something real bad if you try and push me
I went to see my nigga zoe but he told me "Ain't nothin'"
I say man this long way I came into somethin'
He came out with one, I said what are these called silver-sacks
He told me no stupid-ass, we call them my nigga bags
I bust one up wit him 'cause he my nahga
At two in the mornin' some niggas was standin' beside us
One of them niggas had a Glock, I heard him cock it
He told us shut the fuck up and empty out your pockets
I dropped it they grabbed it and got ghost, I layed low
That there happened so fast it was, it fuck up my head zoe
[Chorus]
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
Two in the mornin' a nigga was blowed, not knowin' them boys was jackin'
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
Two in the mornin' a nigga was blowed, not knowin' them boys was jackin'
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
I tried to warn my nigga 'bout them people but they capped him
[Outro]
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
That's how it be happenin', that's how it be happenin'
(Niggas ride for keeps in the nine seven)
(With the duct tape and the MAC-11)
(Extended clip totin' ass niggas)
(Hot Boyz, watch your block boys, got the Reeboks on nigga)
(Don't get your chest knocked clean off your body)
(Bloody nuts, that's how it be happenin')
(Shit's larger than life nigga in the mornin', watch yourself)
(On that dope just hangin', nigga out there lookin' for it, ya heard me, watch yourself)
