Ice Cube – Cold Places lyrics

To all my people going through it on a daily basis
And it seem like the world is full of cold places,
Keep your head up fuck what they said cuz,
You can do it and the man will get you through it.
I believe that, homie
I believe that, if I can picture that, I bring a picture back.

They say gangsta gangsta tell me how ya do it
How ya get thru it and them other niggas blew it
I keep my eye on the prize then pursue it
Chase it like a cheetah choke it out and subdue it
Self educate nigga don't hate cuz the game
A got is no hate fuck with cube am better than YouTube
Fuck with them dudes them niggas is new school
The game don't change just the playas the rhymes
Don't change just the fucking rhyme sayers

They make it up as they go along
But am going on 25 years strong this shit
A say might get you through the day
Or change your whole life in a major way
The shit they say might catch you a case
The shit a say feel like your birthday

To all my people going thru it on a daily basis
And it seem like the world is full of cold places,
Keep your head up fuck what they said cuz,
You can do it and the man will get you thru it.
I believe that, homie
I believe that, if I can picture that, I bring a picture back.

You know what mama said it be days like this
Straight hell on earth for come about the abyss
She said don't let them see you crawl
Don't let them see you fall
All they want to do is laugh when you tear
Your draws it's a cold world nigga
Bring bomber jacket if there's another hustle out there
Amma crack it fuck the new dance amma
Learn how to eat get ma mind right stay up out
These fucking streets they keep calling me
They keep calling all the lil homies
Keep falling in em sand traps
Niggas can't figure out in the fast lane boy
Put the bridges out make ma blood boil
Get ya life spoil
Get you in tha system get you in tha soil
An ya funeral sponsored by unical
Saw ya uvn nigga digital

To all my people going thru it on a daily basis and it seem like the world is full of cold places,
Keep your head up fuck what they said cuz,
You can do it and the man will get you thru it.
I believe that, homie
I believe that, if I can picture that, I bring a picture back.

I know, it's fucked up how they do us,
Pretend they really care
But then they jerry lewis take that money
That was allocated to us put us in some fucked up trailers
Then sue us watching katrina is worser than argentina
See new orleans getting bitch slapped by a fema lousiana
Got racist ass politics free the genesigs nigga
Free the genesigs your honor osama obama
Even ya mama aint fuckin with ma karmas they want us to quit, forget,
And not give a shit about these sick ass politics
A lunatic is in the white house
Make me wanna go do a lick right now
But they'll make a nigga bow down
In the penitentiary a billion dollar industry

To all my people going thru it on a daily basis and it seem like the world is full of cold places,
Keep your head up fuck what they said cuz, you can do it and the man will get you thru it. I believe that, homie
I believe that, if I can picture that, I bring a picture back.
I believe that, homie
I believe that, if I can picture that, I bring a picture back.
