Somebody's Gotta Die Lyrics - Coolio

[Verse 1 - Coolio] 

Get your back, call tomorrow, life is borrowed 

all your tears in sorrow and bring it back and that's a fact 

where would you be at, make sure you're pushin' harder to it 

the game was changed when the bullshit was brought here 

our sets are fallin' now they live in love 

we got five bucks or four reproduction of the clothing and gloves 

you rather see me in a cell, than see me make my mail 

and when the story he tell, he trying to make you fail 

trying to make some money lope but money makes no man 

if you have no pen than you have no money in your hand 

we're so dope, dive and steal, anything but payed for real 

damn you folks, if you wouldn't choked when you forgot to keep it real 

cops came back, rubbers in the back 

what you snap when you couldn't lack 

now you feel the pressure when you didn't count your blessings 

now we're gone, you are alone 

told your mama that you was grown 

one to the neck and three to the chest 

when you ran for your life all alone 

now you're gone, now would your homies die for you, fool 

[Chorus - Coolio] 

I don't wanna die right, he doesn't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

she doesn't wanna die right, they don't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

[Verse 2 - Krayzie Bone] 

I've cacker-rouches in my black boots 

nigga we sued them 'till they were in the mud 

we hold the coffin, it isn't possible they got away running muthafucka 

in the dust, cought up in the ghetto tradegy 

that makes a nigga to fall, unless he's tall 

this is reality mixed with society 

families tored apart but this tearing apart was hard 

stand and askin' where is God, dont you try to play missunder Lord 

and the rest has been said, say rest in peace 'cause my nigga is dead 

before they beginning to run and make everything go under 

I'm gonna knock as hard as my mother not gonna wonder 

'cause I knew it'd be me 

everyone's coming gathering to see 

remain in flames what I used to be, this is no more R.I.P 

you never know when they're coming to get ya 

but have them bullets ready for protection 

take them bodies who has fallen as a collection 

but when they attack, you gotta go, we're under control 

we gather to squeese us 

we hope many men will recover in smoke 

'cause we never die in casulties, and we are the casulties of war 

we are the casulties of war, we are the casulties of war 

[Chorus - Coolio] 

I don't wanna die right, he doesn't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

she doesn't wanna die right, they don't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

[Verse 3 - Coolio] 

I saw them coming from a mile away 

I couldn't stay I had to make my getaway, I lived to find another day 

that's how it goes when this game we play 

everybody on board got a price to pay 

you better pay attention to what I say, go to Hell if you don't pray 

these streets are hard, walkin' down the Boulevard 

like walkin through a prison yard 

you never know when the bullets fly off 

the pressure is on your money, boy beginning to fall 

and your name gotta be stong to make them fools run from court 

oh man your in jail but you cant call your crew 

'cause those niggas dont used to be a crew, now they're after you, ooo 

people seen that you used to be a teen 

but you ran against the Benz, niggas on the scene 

I guess they sucked out your brain , cut you in your jeans 

lucky you're not what they hate but they beat up what they see 

don't you ever go 'round and scream it seperates the boys from men 

cought your closest on your seat 

and that's my dearest fairest friend 

[Chorus x2 - Coolio] 

I don't wanna die right, he doesn't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

she doesn't wanna die right, they don't wanna die right 

no nobody wanna die but somebody's gotta die tonight 

(We are the casulties of war 

we are the casulties of war 

we are the casulties of war) 

[Repeat until fade - Krayzie Bone] 

We are the casulties of war
