Lyrics: Krayzie Bone & Young Noble: Thug Brothers 2: Rolling Stone
Chorus: Krayzie Bone / Young Noble
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Krayzie Bone
When they ask about my life
I say which one you referrin’
Tellin’ me got to be specific
I’ve been all over the world
Nigga always on the move
Never stay too long not in one place
I just can’t occupy one space
I chase my mind so I’m in space high
So I recline in every state
Free my mind in every way
As quick as I can say hello I can say bye
I gotta go
Life in the fast lane got me gone, gone
And I got a show
Gotta get money with my Bone Bone Bone
No need to stay up for me ’cause I’m gon’ be late tonight
Matter of fact I just got a call
I gotta go get on a plane
Late flight
Wish I could be here
Don’t know when the next time I’ll see you
But next time I see you we’ll pick up right where we left off
I move so quickly with no plan (no plan)
Catch me if you can (if you can)
When I’m dead and gone my kids’ll say my pops stayed on the go
Man he’s dope
He stayed one-double-O
Truly rollin’ stone
Rollin’ stone
Rollin’ stone
OG rollin’ stone (stone, stone, stone)
Chorus: Krayzie Bone / Young Noble
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Young Noble
Sometime I think my mama don’t like me
I remind her of my daddy
When I got some rap money
Went and bought my first Caddy
Grab my seat back low
I was drivin’ real slow
Got my mind on my dough
Tryin’ to mack another ho
These days you never know
If they hate you or they love you
If nothin’ but God above you
I chop it and make it double
Makin’ somethin’ out of nothin’
I was raised like this
Outlaw ’til the grave
I’ma die like this
When I was young
I never knew time fly like this
I would’ve never thought my niggas would’ve died like this
That’s why you see me rollin’ up gettin’ high like this
Like fuck the world
Middle fingers to the sky like this
Root from the concrete but reachin’ to the sky like this
Young Nobe Krayzie Bone
Can’t deny this shit
They say I’m just like my daddy
No denyin’ this shit
Fall down
You stand up
Keep tryin’ and shit
Come on
Yeah (yeah, yeah)
Whoo!
Chorus: Krayzie Bone / Young Noble
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He played the field
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He knew the deal
Papa was a rollin’ stone
He kept it real
Kept it real
Kept it real
Papa was a rollin’ stone
Young Noble
Now pop playin’ around
So I gotta recall
Come to grips with bein’ written on my enemy’s walls
Promise if I have a seed
I’ma guide him right
Dear Lord
Don’t let me die tonight
Krayzie Bone
Yes at the end of my life
I won’t regret it
No probably good job in the bright lights in the city
I need to do a round of night life because I’m addicted (addicted) addicted
And this is what it feels like
Not what it feels like
Feels like
Chorus: Krayzie Bone / Young Noble
