Before I meet my maker, before he take my soul
I wanna be a playa, Iâll take my game to pro
Somebody call my mama, and tell her pray some more
I gotta get these dollars, thatâs just the way it go
[Verse 1]
Iâm from a dying breed in dire need
The dialect is dying young and trying things
So whatâs the drug, whatâs the word?
There's trouble waiting on me right outside the curb
I ainât scared though
I got a lot of courage in my step
A fifth of hennesy Iâll take it to the neck
I never look for whatâs at stake because Iâm blessed
I can probably get to Heaven off the strength of mommaâs breath
She praying for me
While Iâm hanging with the pimps and the playaz
I just wanna get a glimpse, feel the flow
We at the function with our hands in the air
I love the way the baby drop it on me low (get down)
Doing everything that a playa want to
Living off the milk and honey of the land
Me and the homies got the juice when we come through
Lifestyle you would never understand
Unless you want to be a playa

[Verse 2]
Iâm from a dying breed in dire need
The dialect is dying young and trying things
So whatâs the haps, whatâs the move?
I ainât tryna hurt nobody, Iâm just tryna groove
Never scared though
So if you with the friction you can step
I paint your face a pretty picture with my left
I never look for whatâs at stake because Iâm blessed
I'll probably never get to Heaven cause I make my mama stressed
She praying for me
While Iâm hanging with the pimps and the playaz
I just gotta get a glimpse, feel the flow
At the function with our hands in the air
I love the way the room moving real slow (get down)
Doing everything that Iâm not supposed to
Stealing all the milk and honey of the land
Me and the homies took the juice when we came too
Lifestyle you would never understand
Unless you want to be a playa

[Bridge]
What ya gonna be when the sun donât shine?
When the clouds fall and shake the sky?
If it all comes crashing down?
(Before I meet my maker Before he take my soul I wanna be a playa I take my game to pro somebody call my mama and tell her pray some more)
What ya gone do?
What ya gone do?
When it all comes down
Repeat
In the great words of Antwan Big
Boi Patton
A playa ainât no gangsta but a playa can handle his shhh
Iâm on the edge now off edge hill and the boulevard
As the home fly at Jay house
My momma kicked me out cause I wan play house
We off a baggie e on a all night stake out
State ya name
What ya claim?
Iâm insane for leaving home
To do my thing
Dis sh- harder
Iâm way smarter
I need order
I need God but
See I loitered
Lord I need ya
Lord Iâm begging
More amensia
Ainât no heaven
This sh- hell
This sh- hell
This sh- hell
Ma you failed
Your son is aâ¦â¦
Hey itâs just the way it goes
All night, screaming, scratching for your soul
Living life the way you wanna
Canât trust your daddy or your mama
Before I see my maker
Before he take my soul
I wanna be a playa
I take my game to pro
Somebody call my mama and tell her pray some more, x3
(What ya gonna be when the sun donât shine?
When the clouds fall and shake the sky?
If it all comes crashing down
What ya gone do?
What ya gone do?
When it all comes down)
