2-4 Family - 9 Lives

Jay Dogg:
Check it, uh, a tisket, a casket, shit be hell of drasctic
Livin for the city, no time for louginґ, relaxing
Gots to get my grip, no man are comin here to often, rolling from the hip
Paid my doobs to be the bossinґ, for what itґs worth, dibb my 
time for doin dirt
Layin dowm the law, coast to coast, goin bizarre
I remeniss on the day, the good times and true lies,ґcause ainґt 
no nigga got 9 lives…

Where you from, where you at? Where you from, where you at?
Who told you that, ґcause you only got one (x4)

Chorus:
9 lives, who told you that, who you know,Where you from, where 
you at, ґcause you only got one
9 lives, weґre just tryinґ to survive
9 lives, weґre just tryinґ to survive

Essie:
Got bless the child who holds his own, straight out of south west,
Hands on the crown, bad to the bone, (what?)
He wrote a let, with a scrap in his lap on the wrong tracktryin 
make the newspapers stack
Jazz:
Now check it, ey yo, you never know what you can do ґtil you 
find out on your own
Think you livinґ large like a poem? Well, me I never fakinґ, 
when everything is takin
Your back is what Iґm brakin, money makin half Jamaican (Where you from?)
Comin from Jamaica, Queens, New York, Iґm shappered on a fork 
and I donґt need that work
So donґt step up, talking about two on a battle,ґcuase I hit 
you with some shit that make your fram rattle

Where you from, where you at? Where you from, where you at?
Who told you that, ґcause you only got one (x2)

Chorus x 1

Lilґ Bit:
Try to get at me, but you couldnґt maintain, of pre coґ, you 
have no name, just another pain
Jane, who try to get up on his train, left you stuck up in da 
game, flip da scrip,
And left your ass hopeless, (yo, thatґs right)
Essie:
Canґt trust these brothers in this game, you should have watched 
his back, (uh)
snakeass jiggas, fakeass jiggas, finger poppinґ triggas, (say 
what?) on this fakeass jiggolosґ
they shake them for their doґ (come, come, come, come on)
LilґBit:
Canґt keep your focus, got you in the smoke, chokinґ, broken 
open like a buss to Trogene
What your up? Why you even pressure up? What the fuck one shot
Essie:
So let this brothers fly on the dark side only the strong survive 
(say what?)
Dead wrong if you thought that you got 9 lives
9 lives, who told you that that you got 9 lives?

Where you from, where you at? Where you from, where you at?
Who told you that, ґcause you only got one (x4)
