作曲 : Emandu Wilcox/Derrick Stewart/Romye Robinson/J Dilla/Trevant Hardson

Be like that, it just be like that

Baby tell me why it's gotta be like that

I wasn't sleepin I was creepin’, slidin', hidin'

I would like the girl behind me roll up a bad time thinkin'

Mentally sinkin’, presently brinkin’

Two decades and a half makin’ a path for mine to follow

The world is hollow, yet it's full of crap prepare to gamble

I give you a handful of chips and tips

For what's to come, I cried a ton of tears

Drunk a ton of beers, that's fun at first

But learned to persevere throughout the years

Kept my ears open, eyes scoping mouth locked

Don't rock the boat if you can't swim

Nobody may be there with the limb to lend

This is the end, still I can't explain the fact

Why the **** shit gotta be like that?

Be like that, it just be like that

Baby tell me why it's gotta be like that

Know what, I said it

Hear me clearin' over so severe and dreaded

That they need to be beheaded

Why? I'm readily, steadily stimulating and mutilating

All sloppily copied imitations, cause they irritatin'

So I'm intimitading them over the snare

With simply a stare

Bringin them turbulent terror

And they know this ‘cause they can feel it

He knew that it was mine still the sucker tried to steal it

So I had to reveal it, through provin’

That I am astonishing and fly

And by just blinking my eye

In a flash I flush out the face, layin' low-key

Trained eyes locate to focus on the phony

Mister sometime-homey, why he act like that

I thought he had my back

I thought he had our backs

But it was him who I should've never trusted

And not at least till he got his attitude adjusted

Or mouth busted for acting all dusted, but bust this

Now when I'm out I seek and thought out the whole scene

For all sinister types, sneaks that scheme

They come into my face, I send them tightmen home

When they be suffering from the double-agent syndrome

Why it gotta be like that?

Be like that, it just be like that

Baby tell me why it's gotta be like that

Sometimes this world means everything to me

The inside is lovely to these eyes I see

And sometimes in my mind all I wanna do is cry

Highly up-set but nothing drops from my eye

Those drain out my skin cause I'm pissed from within

I see a situation now and all I do is grin

People think I'm high but I'm mentally travelling

Aging is your times cause life's unraveling

While I'm straddlin' walls up this ****in' mic

I hate to be a pilot crashin' in a flight

People need to know about this thing called life

Cause if you see the light then life's alright

Be like that, it just be like that

So can you dig it?

Baby tell me why it's gotta be like that

I jumps inside the jeep as I embark on my dark mission

Popped in my freestyle tapes, started reminiscing

About my little homie, who was raised in Wyoming, wanted to be famous

So he came to Californey on the microphony

He was super bad and what not

But he was the kinda fella to follow fads that was hot

He became too fascinated with that gang related flavor

That he modificated, rearranged his behavior

He hooked up quick with the influential slang

Gangsta-stroll, cornrolls; the whole shabbang

Braggin' and boastin, boastin' and braggin

How he mostly be hangin' with baby gees I was baggin'

Like why you tryin' to ride up on the bandwagon

Hopin' they'd hit him in the head, but he steady saggin'

Like he a hog

Creepin' through the smog

Smokin' on some indo sippin' on a cup of O-Dog

Like most who come to this West Coast society

Try to be because they think it's fly to be a menace

So what a relic way to end this

Got rolled up when he was strolling

On a Sunday at the Venice

Niggas never listen they gotta learn their lesson

The hard way I'm guessin' yessin'

Deedy as I hit the Beady and make a right on Weston

Pops in my head the proverbial question

Be like that, it just be like that

Baby tell me why it's gotta be like that
