It's still the same thang ain't nothing changed, me and my dogs trying to have thangs
Flipping our cheddar trying to maintain, don't wanna go to jail but trying to hit stangs

I'm a G sitting back peeping game, on the block where the ^!$$%z might get ya mayn
4-4 slugs might hit ya frame, cause these ^!$$%z still wanna go against the grain
Steady trying to ball, just not knowing they about to fall

Want the love but they hate em all, wanting God but they ain't made the call
^!$$%z thinking they just too cool, fifteen years old dropped out of school
Trying to cap about what they do, drama come they better get that tool

They know death sitting round the corner, Lord knows they ain't ready for the reaper to come calling
They life falling ahead of time, and ain't trying to stall him
This right here is all that I see, T-R-A-E is all that I be

Same thang different day, gotta live your life by any means

[Hook x2]

It's the same thang, different day
^!$$%z know, what I mean dog
It's the same thang, different day

Same thang, different day dog

Collect call from the county jail, Kick Dog caught up trying to make the mail
Third strike and ain't got no bail, inside it hurt like hell
Everyday this how the world turn, in the heat but don't wanna get burned

22-Agg' might make him learn, he going through it for a hell of a term
Baby mama ain't make it no better, she know that you gone and she searching for cheddar
You losing your mind and it's really whatever, all the pain is your permanent weather

Back put up against the wall, pride ain't gon let him give up at all
Built up pressure bout to let go, so his outlook on life is $#&@ em all
My advice is to slow it down, ain't no type of kin folk coming round

That %#@! ain't right you and I both know, your dog gon be the one to hold it down
And that's life whether real or fake, reality is what you can't shake
It be the same thing everyday, the weight of the world might make you break

A new day but the same drama, everybody still wanna prove theyself
Let me tell it to ya damn fool, headed off to go lose theyself

He got beef wit you know who, hot headed for the hood near you
Letting everybody pump up his brain, loading up to see what you do
Dog you don't wanna go out like that, slugs'll get ya where you can't fight back

It don't take much for you to know that, six shots and everybody gon scat
Where ya dogs where ya friends, you back alone once again
If it's meant to be you won't walk again, $#&@ing with them same ol' ^!$$%z again

I ain't going but I'm trying to show ya, everyday life is about to fold ya
Don't get caught up trying to be a soldier, you'll wind up dead when nobody know ya
That's the truth and it's simple and plain, don't let the devil get up in ya mayn

He'll have it when you gon lose your brain, in different ways but it's all the same

[Hook x2]

Same thang different day, time roll by know I'm saying

%#@! still don't change, it's always the same
Everyday reality, gotta take it for what it is you know I'm saying
Don't whine about the %#@!, just be smart about it

Don't be no fool, get caught up in the hype
Street life know I'm saying, that ain't %#@! to brag about
Some people, just stuck with that %#@!

My advice is get your grind on, do your thang
Do it on the low, you feel what I'm saying
Don't get caught up, $#&@ing with these fake mother$#&@ers

Or your so-called friends, so-called gal
All that %#@! don't mean nothing, you know I'm saying keep God first
