_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [Bb] [F] I was raised up in these streets [Dm] so I'm a die a G, die [Gm] a G.
March 27 was the day of my [Dm] birth.
My mama only lived 14 so [Bb] I know that it [F] hurt.
Shit gave life to a G that was raising the [Dm] streets.
They tried to teach me right from wrong but it was destined for [Gm] me to see the penitentiary
cause I was raised to the [Dm] thugs.
Never had a real job but stayed [F] pushing them drugs.
Sat tripping in [Dm] the club with them Piru bloods and at the end of the night all you heard
was the [Gm] slugs.
Now my mama looking proud cause she know that I [Dm] made it.
Couldn't be a better father to [Bb] her two [F] grandfathers.
Know my life's a little [Dm] crazy but I'm doing my best.
I know I've had a lot of problems but it was only a [Gm] test.
So I strive to be the best until I'm sitting on [Dm] top.
Put my mama in a mansion and my [F] pops up on the yacht.
I'm so thankful for what I got cause I grew up having [Dm] nothing.
Watch my pops getting drunk cause of all the [Gm] fucked up drugs.
Mama don't cry for me.
This [Dm] is my destiny.
[D] [F] I was raised up in these streets so [Dm] I'm a die a G, die a G.
[Gm] Mama don't cry for me.
I [Dm] know you'll ride for [C] me.
[Dm]
Even if the feds come knocking I know you'll lie for me.
[Gm] Mama know it broke your heart to see me locked in a [Dm] cell.
But still you took that long drive to visit [Bb] me up in [F] jail.
Sending calls to the mail telling me how much you love me.
When I dropped my first hour you were so proud [Gm] of me.
Then I started falling off and got back in the [Dm] game.
Couldn't look you in the eye cause I was [D] soaked with [F] shame.
Broke every promise that I said that I would never do [Dm] again.
Now my mama scared as hell that I'ma go back to the [Gm] pen.
But I can't stop mama I'm too far in this [Dm] game.
Even though I should be rapping out the [F] chase and my fame.
Got a God given [Dm] talent I'ma make sure I use it.
And tell my tea lady that I love her through my [Gm] music.
So don't cry mama everything will be [Dm] okay.
I started my own company and now I'm on my way.
Got my kids and my wife and a family to feed.
Ain't no way that I could do it from the penitentiary.
[Gm] Mama don't cry for me.
This [Dm] is my destiny.

Mama everything in life wasn't simple and [Dm] plain.
We had a trial and tribulations but we [Bb] still in the [F] game.
You know that life's full of pain when you stuck in the [Dm] rain.
And even after divorce you never change your last [Gm] name.
I'ma really love you mama and I'ma make sure you [Dm] know it.
Try my best to change my life and hoping that I don't [F] blow it.
Either way that it goes you will never turn your [Dm] back.

You the first person I call when a nigga feeling sick.
You my queen my everything.
Mama you my heart.
You ain't gotta worry about me cause your boy got street [Gm] smart.
I'ma do what I gotta do to make it home [Dm] safe.
And I'ma try my damn hardest not to end up in that cage.
So don't cry for me mama everything gon' be alright.
Cause I know you say a prayer for me each and every night.
