Paroles: Krayzie Bone. Other. Always Something.

[Chorus:]
If it ain't one thang, it's another
It's always somethin, sometimes I wonder how I don't go under
I, always seem to get myself in trouble
I always stumble, you wouldn't believe me if you'd seen me after I die.
(If it ain't one thang) It's some other thang, (If it ain't one thang) It's some other thang
(If it ain't one thang) It's some other thang, (If it ain't one thang) It's some other thang.

[Verse 1:]
I wanna be rich, I'm supposed to be caned
I'm tryna make a deal off the rhythms I made
But every time I think, I'm comin up in the game
I'm always runnin into some problems
So at the bottom, I still remain
I can't think like us
I didn't eat last night
Can't sleep quite tight
Underneath street lights
And when I started slangin llelo
I made a little bankroll
Just my luck, the coppers hit the block and they paid for it.

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
So now I'm sittin in a cell
Still broke as hell, in jail
Can't pay bail
Got a nigga lock up, won't let me out
I'm locked up, and it stressed me out
So I served a couple months so they finally released me
As soon as I hit the streets
I got to thinkin "jail was easy"
Cause man I had a place to sleep
But shit, at least they feed me
But now it's back to bein needy
Livin, grind me, greasy.

[Chorus]
