Wait A Minute Songtext

I don't know what you were trained to be
But we was trained to be Gs
And you know I'm from the G
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute

Where I'm from, we play for keeps
We don't ever play for fake
If you run up on a youngin'
Then your soul, he gonna take (Boom-boom-boom)
No time for her
Gotta keep a pole, don't let 'em close
Get caught slippin', they gon' wet your floor
Quick to turn you to a ghost
Ooh, wait a minute, can't you see? (Can't you see?)
I'm just tellin' you how it be (How it be)
Gotta move in silent, inner G (Inner G)
Know a couple homies rest in peace
I see the envy all in the eyes, they hate me
But don't plan to run up on me, it's off safety
Oh my God, man down, he's shaking
Soul leavin' your body, it's vacant
I don't know what you were trained to be
But we was trained to be Gs
And you know I'm from the G
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute

Mama said, "Son, don't you cry to me"
Learn to get this money, ain't nothing free
Late night, looking to the sky to see
Lookin' in the mirror, I'm a dying breed
Cut solid drip, concrete when I bleed
Melly took off and I followed his lead
How they mad and there was nothin' to eat
Now every day, yeah, you know we gonna feast
You gave me this chance that I've never had before
Now we out the streets, yeah, we don't gotta thug no more

I see the envy all in the eyes, they hate me
But don't plan to run up on me, it's off safety
Oh my God, man down, he's shaking
Soul leavin' your body, it's vacant
I don't know what you were trained to be
But we was trained to be Gs
And you know I'm from the G
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute
