A Gangster And A Gentleman

(Styles - Verse One)
 My pops came from Bed Stuy, my mom came from Africa
 I'm more a nigga if you know what I mean
 They hooked up in the '70's when liquor and weed was heavy
 and had me in Corona, Queens
 By the time I was seven my mom left my pop
 Then we moved to the south side of Yonkers, New York
 Then my mom remarried, had my little brother Gary
 My sister a year later, let me gather my thoughts
 By the time I was nine I was outta my mind
 My step pops didn't like me beat me outta my mind
 Ten and eleven the same I never would change
 He still had to hit me, aggravate a little nigga
 Still wearin' Skippys
 Garf had Adidas and Pumas, I could a had a pair
 My mommy said wait 'til Christmas but I needed em sooner
 If you heard I was broke dawg it wasn't a rumor
 (Chorus (repeat 2x) - Styles)
 I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
 Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
 Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
 It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
 (Styles - Verse Two)
 It was 1986 and I was twelve years old
 That's right around the time when crack came out
 It was the best thing that happened to me
 I swear to God cause I was gettin everything that I was askin about
 First we started off baggin up, me and garf
 Then shit start addin up, we gettin smart
 Now we on Broadway, coppin our own base
 Bring it home and put it in bottles, send us a rottle
 Drink an OE and scramble like it wasn't tomorrow
 I'm gettin kicked out of Junior High, thinkin I'm grown
 Got bust with the yellow rabbit
 And I had every color dealt we was gettin it on
 I was out robbin Mexicans six in the morn'
 Mom said I'd had to ep again, rip it I'm gone
 Nigga get a little loony and grown, soup in the dome
 F**k me up worst when I went to the group home
 (Chorus (repeat 2x) - Styles)
 I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
 Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
 Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
 It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
 (Styles - Verse Three)
 I'm leavin out a lotta shit, nigga it's too real
 My alcoholic backround, the welfare motels
 Abuse that I had to take struggle at my mom's recruit
 How the f**k I'm gon bomb wit you
 And the cases I got up to date told you that I bust a eight
 My niggas I can't name, outta state (My niggas f**k with weight)
 Little brother gone but I got a baby angel
 You f**kin with a dirty name, don't let these niggas change you
 The present's what you get
 And the past is what make the man future
 I can't tell you I ain't God or lil' Superman
 No there ain't a 'S' on my chest, but it's a 'D' on my block (D Blok)
 And said life the deepest lesson is death
 I'm determined and I'm disciplined and destined to rep
 I'm a Gangsta and a Gentleman, Panero the best
 When I pass I'm like gas, motherf**kers
 Cause I'm a leave a stain that you'll never forget
 (Chorus (repeat 2x) - Styles)
 I said Gangstas ride (Ride with me)
 Gentlemen live your life (Live it up)
 Cause Gangstas die (We all gon die)
 It's only a matter of time (The clock tickin)
