Lyrics
1. Thug Transition 15 years old working in the club Label me thug before they knew who Pac was 18 years old made it out the bluff Without being incarcerated or catching a slug 21 years old yelling K A Psi Made to haze ladies choice pimp or die 24 years old now I’m on the run Tried to give me fourteen for the weed and gun 27 years old thinking about Heaven And how to avoid hell in this cell that I’m dwelling 30 years old off paper doing fine Got a wife now and a new state of mind Chorus: Thug transitions What happens when a Gangster turn Christian It makes other Gangsters want to listen If you ain’t never been in no life or death situation Where you had to call upon the Lord with no hesitation You might not be willing to look at your sins and face them But if you like me not only face em you embrace them And thank the Lord cause without em you would never know What it took for Christ to get you where you got to go I’m so…convinced that he died for me I been born again the Lord lives inside of me So I’m ma teach preach tell em While pulpit pimps sell em dreams Thug Transition That’s what it means… Chorus: Since I’ve been saved I been Drunk I been High Been up in the club I aint Why stunt why lie Even done dirt Moved work Chase skirts And I say that to say this For what it’s worth We still susceptible to sin Up in the Church But like TD Jakes Let me be the first to say I aint perfect Put this in verses To let you know until Christ comes Or them hearses All gone sin and fall short of the Glory God From Pope Benedict To that new pastor you fina get Take your time let that marinate Cause when it hit-Home You gone see why I left Thugging alone
