| [00:11.37] | Family problems, it ain't easy handling those needs |
| [00:13.69] | (Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do) |
| [00:15.91] | Baby mama drama, I just need a little time to go to sleep |
| [00:18.87] | (Damn, only if I had a little time for me) |
| [00:21.60] | Record company motherfuckers asking me when I'm gonna release |
| [00:24.46] | (I want the pressure homie, so much pressure on me) |
| [00:26.83] | And my homies on my back about me helping them get up off them streets (I mean what the fuck?) |
| [00:29.04] | |
| [00:29.50][Hook: BJ The Chicago Kid] | |
| [00:32.02] | And it all falls back on me |
| [00:35.34] | Sometimes, somehow, it all falls back on me |
| [00:39.01] | (Somehow it always fall back on me) |
| [00:42.34] | No matter where we are, no matter what we doing, it's on me |
| [00:47.47] | If it was up to you that's just the way it's always gon' be |
| [00:48.53] | |
| [00:48.98][Verse 1: Dr. Dre] | |
| [00:52.44] | (Listen to me) |
| [00:53.46] | It's kind of funny how they fall back on me |
| [00:55.62] | I used to never get a call back, homie |
| [00:57.83] | Before the money they didn't see me like it's dark and it's all black, homie |
| [01:00.89] | But now they switching cause the card black, homie |
| [01:03.41] | It wasn't always that way |
| [01:04.22] | We was recording on the 4-track, homie |
| [01:06.24] | New apartment, no fridge, no mattress, no table, no cable |
| [01:09.55] | And all I hear is my girl in my ear |
| [01:11.38] | And this nigga Eazy asking for his car back, homie |
| [01:14.34] | I would've never saw this happening from that far back, homie |
| [01:16.95] | What it came to be, would have never believed, living the life I lived in C-P-T |
| [01:21.28] | A motherfucking dream to reality is what you call that, homie |
| [01:22.33] | |
| [01:22.73][Bridge: Justus] | |
| [01:26.56] | It was something to me |
| [01:27.98] | No eat, no sleep, wasn't nothing to me |
| [01:30.20] | Can't always be how you want it to be |
| [01:32.75] | And I'm the one that they looking up to |
| [01:34.90] | Fuck they expecting from me? |
| [01:35.61] | |
| [01:35.97][Hook: BJ The Chicago Kid] | |
| [01:36.27] | And it all falls back on me |
| [01:38.74] | Sometimes, somehow, it all falls back on me |
| [01:44.13] | (Somehow it always fall back on me) |
| [01:46.14] | No matter where we are, no matter what we doing, it's on me |
| [01:51.12] | If it was up to you that's just the way it's always gon' be |
| [01:51.78] | |
| [01:52.18][Verse 2: Dr. Dre] | |
| [01:57.31] | That's just the way it is, and how it always was |
| [02:00.24] | DJing parties in my neighborhood just for the love |
| [02:02.91] | Dope dealers overtipping and bitches stripping |
| [02:05.67] | And any minute niggas start tripping and start shooting shit |
| [02:08.08] | On any given day I'm like "what the fuck?" |
| [02:10.14] | Face down on the pavement with the billy clubs |
| [02:12.97] | Took that feeling to the studio and cued it up |
| [02:15.54] | And now it's "Fuck the Police" all up in the club |
| [02:18.30] | Now it's '91 and Snoop Dogg came to visit |
| [02:20.97] | And was like "What up cuz? Let me show you what this chronic like" |
| [02:23.95] | Couldn't help myself, just had to dip into that chronic life |
| [02:26.66] | And then that night came in when that nigga Knight came in(woo!) |
| [02:30.14] | This one of those dreams you don't wake up from |
| [02:32.31] | Then again, you don't sleep if you come from where I come from |
| [02:34.41] | When the sun shines and they bust nines |
| [02:36.02] | Don't dial 9 plus 1-1 |
| [02:37.19] | When they run up on your school bus with a two truck, you might learn something |
| [02:37.93] | |
| [02:38.54][Hook: BJ The Chicago Kid] | |
| [02:39.84] | And it all falls back on me |
| [02:44.26] | Sometimes, somehow, it all falls back on me |
| [02:49.30] | (Somehow it always fall back on me) |
| [02:50.21] | No matter where we are, no matter what we doing, it's on me |
| [02:55.30] | If it was up to you that's just the way it's always gon' be |
