[Lil' Flip]
Uh, take a look in my eyes, tell me what you see
A nigga who was young, grew up to be a G
I started off playin basketball for my coach
He started hatin so I took a different approach
I'ma rap, fuck sweatin, and I'ma do somthin
(like what) that a nigga won't be regrettin
Could I rob? (no!)
Could I steal? (no!)
Could I jack? (no!)
Should I kill? (no!)
Nah, I gotta get my shit together
Cause a nigga need a house and big furniture with the leather
I pick up the pen, I pick up the pace
And I used to be broke I couldn't even pick up my face
And now, listen to the shit a nigga be doin
While you nigga's thinkin that a nigga's career be ruined
From smokin, and drinkin
Drinkin, and smokin
And I'ma try and go platinum while you thinkin and hopin
Wishin and lookin, trying to do what I do
And if ya fuck with me, ill shoot or ill sue
And how you wanna' handle business, I can get it like that
And sellin work on the block, I used to get it like that
But I had to back back, and open up my eyes
When you runnin in these streets, you might get a surprise
Your friend could be a foe, your girl could be a hoe
And everybody you think got your back, you don't know
Doop been here before a nigga got rich
So Doop right here when I ridin in my 6
My nigga Cease make beats for me everyday
And guess what he don't never ask to get paid
My nigga Red keep it real, Hump got my back
When I didn't have a car, Hump bought a 'Lac
Now Hump bought a Jag, and I'm in it
Runnin through these hoes but my name ain't Emmitt
[Chorus]
It's a fact - everybody smiling ain't your friend
Everybody with a grin contemplating on your ends
It's a fact - you reap what you sow, better watch what you do
Cause you'll do it to somebody that'll do it to you
It's a fact - your best friend will turn his back on ya
Pull a gat on ya, even rat on ya
It's a fact - that most niggaz act like hoes
It's a fact - that most niggaz act like hoes
[Lil' Flip]
Now who can you trust, who can you depend on?
When you all broke need money to lend on
When you tryin'a ball and your money been gone
When you tryin'a put the down payment on 10 homes
Will your nigga ride for you? Will your nigga bust?
Will a nigga come and get your ass out them cuffs?
Will your nigga take you to the mall and buy some clothes?
Will your nigga ever put you first before them hoes?
Will your nigga buy you drank and smoke up the weed?
Ride for your ass when niggaz shootin down your street
Come to your funeral and tell a fuckin story
Think about them nuts that we took with no glory
The category, the lists, The rappin, the hoes
The hoes and the shows, It comes and it goes
Da Duh Da Duh Da Duh
[Lil Flip talking]
Straight up nigga, that's how I feel
Know what I'm sayin'?
Everybody needs to be ballin nigga
If you got chain nigga - your nigga need to have a chain
If you gotta' cup nigga - your nigga need a cup
If you gotta' hundred in your pocket
your nigga gotta at least have fifty, know what I'm sayin?
niggaz that get in the rap game and forget about them niggaz who helped 'em nigga.... Keep it real, nigga
So that's why I don't wanna fuck with you new niggaz man
Cuz I ain't shoot marbles with you niggaz...
But y'all cool...
[Lil' Flip]
If it ain't Suckafree don't fuck wit me
Cause I know you got your eyes on my luxury
If you ain't Suckafree don't fuck with me
Cause I know you got your eyes on my luxury
[Chorus]
It's a fact - everybody smiling ain't your friend

How does this apply to white (or black) people who don’t play basketball, can't rap, and weren’t raised in the gutter? I honestly dont see the meaning in it. besides "the hope for black youth" song on every rappers cd.

There’s a place you’ve got to go
For learning all you want to know about the facts of life
The facts of life.
When books are what you’re there about
And looks are what you care about the time is right,
to learn the facts of life.
When the world never seems to be living up to your dreams
It’s time you started finding out what everything is all about
When the boys you used to hate you date,
I guess you best investigate the facts of life
You gotta get’em right
The facts of life;
You take the good, you take the bad,
you take them both and there you have
The facts of life, the facts of life.
There’s a time you got to go and show
You’re growin’ now you know about the facts of life,
The facts of life.
When the world never seems to be livin up to your dreams
And suddenly you’re finding out
The facts of life are all about you, you.
It takes a lot to get ‘em right
When you’re learning the facts of life. (learning the facts of life)
Learning the facts of life (learning the facts of life)
Learning the facts of life.
You’ll avoid a lot of damages
And enjoy the fun of managing the facts of life;
They shed a lot of light
If you hear them from your brother,
Better clear them with your mother
Better get them right, call her late at night
You got the future in the palm of your hands
All you gotta do to get you through is understand
You think you rather do without,
You will never make without the truth
The facts of life is all about you!
For learning all you want to know about the facts of life
