Mistakes in the Game

[Intro: Snoop Dogg & Skull Duggery]

Let me hear somethin', Skull

For sure

Good lookin', dog

Now I done come to find out, man, this motherfuckin' game is built on mistakes (Say what?)

If a nigga don't make mistakes, he don't get nowhere

That's real (For real)

I mean goddamn, I was tryna have a lil' somethin', but I made a mistake

Now all of a sudden, I'm right back up on top of it (Yeah)

It's just somethin' about this game

Mistakes make you better, baby (You right, nigga, for sure)

[Verse 1: Skull Duggery]

Say, bro, I feel you, mistakes, I made too (Too)

In my life, man, all of my life is true (True)

A legend and got off in the game (Off in the game), tried to rearrange (Rearrange)

But I found out the game wasn't for me, man

I had to watch my back (My back), got hit four times

In the hip and in the leg and in the foot and in the spine

Nigga thought that I was dead (Dead), but I'm here (I'm here)

They took the bullets out, but one is still emerged in there (Emerged in there)

So I had to look at everything (Everything), that I did

And everyone that was 'round me, kid ('Round me, kid)

It wasn't good, it wasn't healthy for me

Them niggas tried to do me in the city where I'm from (Where I'm from)

Hit me up and stick me up like a stuffed pig (Like a stuffed pig)

Looky here, you know one thing I couldn't deal

With the nigga comin' at me (At me), like a murderer (Murderer)

Only thing I had to do over was bury the thought (Bury the thought)

Lookin' at this fool tryna get me out the door (Out the door)

Snortin' in the 'Port, thinkin' that he got heart (Thinkin' that he got heart)

But I know for sure that the mistake that I made (The mistake)

Was defendin' this nigga, I should've killed him dead (Dead)

[Chorus: Snoop Dogg]

Every nigga in this game make mistakes, man

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man

'Cause money brings problems, doggone

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone (Bone, bone)

Every nigga in this game make mistakes, man

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man

'Cause money brings problems, doggone

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone

[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg]

Listen here, Big Skull (What's up?), I know the game that you in (Yeah)

But I went through the same thing and I been through the pen' (Uh-huh, uh-huh)

Did time in the county, sold dope on the streets

Walkin' out on the block (What's up, nigga?), tryna hold my heat (What? What?)

Niggas trippin' off me 'cause my status was large

Plus I was in charge, but look here (Look here)

Now, I done been here (Here), there (There), and everywhere (Uh-huh)

Ain't no rules in this game, but the game is fair (Fair)

Man, niggas is a trip with this shit (Fuck 'em)

Especially when you're tryna get your grip and shit (Money, money, money)

N-O-L-I-M-I-T (T)

That's all I know, besides it's DPG, fuck 'em

[Chorus: Snoop Dogg]

Every nigga in this game make mistakes, man (Mistakes)

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man (Oh, God)

See money brings problems, doggone

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone (Bone)

Every nigga in this game makes mistakes, man

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man (Bitch-ass nigga)

See, money brings problems, doggone (Yeah)

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone

[Verse 3: Skull Duggery]

Say, Snoop, have you ever had a nigga say that he had love for you? (For you)

The only love that he really had was he used to shove you (Shove you)

He used to talk about that love that he had was so deep (So deep)

And the only thing he really wanted you for was your money

Feel me, man, I'ma do the same shit (Same thing)

Tired of it (Tired of it), you dig it? So that's why I rebel, see? (Rebel, see?)

See the Black man like me (Black man like me), comin' up

Only thing I gotta do is look at the life because it's so rough

Only thing I'm gonna tell you holler at me (Holler at me)

I got your back for sure, nigga, it's Skull Duggery

So what? You don't believe so? I'm gonna let you know

Tell me 'bout some mistakes that you went through for sure (For sure)

[Verse 4: Snoop Dogg]

Man, what the hell is wrong with this game hip-hop?

Somebody was naughty when they told clip and Glock

To come to the party and bust it up

What they really should've said was, "Come and fuck shit up"

See straps in raps, perhaps it makes snaps

But it take niggas' lives and it don't bring 'em back

Now how that sound? Nigga, your shit on the map

Even in your own hood, you gotta watch your back

Just because you made a lil' paper (Some paper)

Don't mean that everybody caught the fuckin' vapors

I hang with some niggas who don't really give a fuck

They three-time losers and we all rip stuff (What?)

Nigga, huh? (Huh?), nigga, what? (What?)

Don't say shit, nigga, give it up (Give it up)

And if you take your time, you will find that time might not be on your side

See, mistakes was meant to be made when you're livin' do or die

[Chorus: Snoop Dogg]

Every nigga in this game makes mistakes, man (Mistakes)

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man (Ain't that real?)

See money brings problems, doggone (What? What? What?)

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone (Bone)

Every nigga in this game makes mistakes, man

In every nigga's clique, there's a snake, man (Ain't that real? Ain't that real?)

See, money brings problems, doggone (What? What? What? What?)

If you don't take a loss, then you won't get your bone (Bone, damn)

[Outro: Snoop Dogg]

It's fucked up

Mistakes

But I guess you learn from your mistakes

Shit, it'll never happen again

'Bout to break these bitches

'Sup, Skull?

Let's get the fuck up outta here, baby

Roll somethin', roll up one of them Backwoods for your boy

And we out, peace
