Nelly - Say Now Lyrics
[nelly]Gun shots ringed out over the cityAnd had everybody duckin and runnin checkin for anyKinda shelter cause them peoples man they at it againIf you aint heard or seen it then you better pretendAint got no time for stoppin aint no catchin your windYa baby mammas on the porch tellin her daughters come inGot fathers grabbin sons where the hell have you been?Boy and yall just startin young Im talkin 13 and 10They started tradin in the streets some type of ghetto battlesBut they aint hoopin in the gym they hoopin crates in the alleysWhere else can you shoot a jump shotSlang a rock all from the same spot?Got one gang on this half the other gangOn the other half of the same blockGunplay on mondaySundays a fun dayWill it stop one day?I cant call it no wayWhen your gettin started everybody wanna help and get you offBut turn around first mother*****ers wanna see you fall[chorus]Say now (say now)Can you hoes come out to play now? (play now)Say now (say now)Can you hoes come out to play now? (play now)Say now (na na na na)Can you hoes come out to play now? (na na na na na na na na)Say now (na na na na)Can you hoes come outNa wait a minute na wait a minute na wait a minute na[hook: 2x]Feel like Im runnin for the daylightTryin ta get my mind rightAnd just before I die will somebody reach out and snatch it from meSay nowCan you hoes come out to play now?[nelly](hear me out)Tryin ta put my city on the map and they mad at meThe same city some of them live in and they mad at meWhen I come down to speak dirty why you mad at me?Is it cause the old school freaked out niggas from a to z?Eight cds,tvs, I aim to pleaseThey mean the same to me like biggie to csLike easy to es, tupac to overseasAnd I done seen more lia fans fall cry to their kneesI tell ya, I aint been livin this life for too longAnd I cant count how many times someone has asked me whats wrongWhy my mother was goneWhy my dady wasnt homeAnd the same shit they told me I found myself tellin my ownNow its good-bye bad nightsHello good timesThere aint no way ill let no nigga step in my shineKeep tryin (keep tryin)Theres bound ta be somethin gAs long as Im in stlYou in the ticIll tell ya[chorus][hook]Hear me out nowSay now (echose) (4x)
