[HOOK] We gon' see if you can handle the pressure (like we do) Serious, who get it done? (my people) Twist it up and light it up (like me) Then go (like me) Go hard (like me, like me) We gon' see if you can inspire the game (like I did) You ain't never seen pain (like we did) Pour it up, and drink it up (like us) We hold (it's a must) Go hard (it's a must) [KASTRO] They told me God gon' test ya So many ups and downs Now my texture like leather I couldnt' settle for lesser So I got up off my ass and got down for whatever Everyday I see the same old bullshit And any day now, could be the one I loose it It's like my screws is loose And the truth is I'm kind of confused I don't know what the truth is They told me God gon' test me, I hope I pass And get the chance to laugh last I a rare breed With a need for speed And a hunger for numbers I need to feed Look how they seasoned me The 'G' gene in me It's the reason my people's believe in me Here's to the past My peers not with me (yess) I pour liquor for years they spent with me [Chorus: YOUNG NOBLE] You say you want yours Let me see you go hard homey Otherwise you just wastin' ya time And it's stickin' Don't be a victim Everybody dies by the hands of God (ohhhhhh) Can't nobody save 'em Can't nobody blame when they just like we (noooooo) Can't nobody change 'em Can't nobody save 'em It's how it's gotta be [YOUNG NOBLE] They say God gon' test ya You fall hard, do you stand tall? Or do you crack under the pressure? In my own words like Pac's Resurrection You do a U-Turn or heads in dangerous direction The strangest confession, you do not know me No matter how many times you niggaz press rewind and quote me Son it's deeper then a rap song I ain't tryna end up flat on my stomach With half of my back gone The pain I feel inside been passed on Souljah to soldier everytime one of us pass on So you ain't gotta ask what I mash for I'm a lost soul, live and die by the code I was taught to improvise when the funds low Playin' hard, nigga never go gun-ho I got one more Little piece of advice Don't play hard cause you playin' with yo life soldier [Chorus] [E.D.I] They say the Lord gon' test ya Get down on ya knees my nigga He'll definately bless ya And I know you on some hard times Shit only recently, I started seeing some good times Somewhere deep in me, I kind of wanna live a good life But all I know is traps, crack, and hood life And they got me so gone When I do get some money man I spend it all on chrome We so backwards Niggaz take penitentiary chances, with nothing to show for it Look... at the end of the day If you gettin' paid You better tuck some away For a rainy day Cause it is gon' rain It's all good now But it is gon' change What goes up, gotta come down Some niggaz survive Some niggaz drown What you gon' do? [Chorus] [HOOK] We gon' see if you can handle the pressure (like we do) Serious, who get it done? (my people) Twist it up and light it up (like me) Then go (like me) Go hard (like me, like me) We gon' see if you can inspire the game (like I did) You ain't never seen pain (like we did) Pour it up, and drink it up (like us) We hold (it's a must) Go hard (it's a must.. must)
