Lil' Flip - I Shoulda Listened lyrics

huh huh

I had to do somethin like dis

ya know

huh I shoulda listened

I shoulda listened

<i>[Lil' Flip - Verse 1]</i>

I shoulda listened, when ya said boy go and get a job

I shoulda listened, cause you gotta sell dope or rob

I shoulda listened, when you told me I need to go to college

but right now I'm tryin to money in my wallet

I shoulda listened, when you said boy make good grades

but instead I was worryin about dem new j's

I shoulda listened, when you said boy dont get no tattoos

now it's 2 years later and now I got 22

I shoulda listened, when you said keep playin basketball

but I was makin mo money standin in the hall

I shoulda listened, when you said I need to be in the church

but that's hard "why" cause everyday I gotta concert

I shoulda listened, when you said I need to watch my friends

cause yesterday my partner got jacked fo' his Benz

I shoulda listened, when you said dont stand on the corner

cause all black folks do is smoke marijuana

<i>[Chorus: repeat 2X]</i>

I shoulda listened, when yo told me dont do that I did it any way

I shoulda listened, when yo told me dont hustle but I gotta get paid

<i>[Lil' Flip - Verse 2]</i>

I shoulda listened, when you said quit standin on the block

cause all that do is make it easy fo the cops

I shoulda listened, when you said it dont matta what car you drive

long as you pay yo bills long as you survive

I shoulda listened, when you said dont be hangin at the club

cause people get drunk and wanna shoot the club up

I shoulda listened, when you said you cant please everybody

right now I'm findin out I dont need everybody

I shoulda listened, when you said dont brind dem niggaz to ya house

cause when you aint there theyll try to break in ya house

I shoulda listened, when you told me you read what ya so

so everybody I meet I cant treat'em like a hoe

I shoulda listened, when ya told me do somethin wit my time

so I picked up the pen and paper and now I'm writtin ryhmes

I shoulda listened, when you said forget the money put God first

so that's the way I gotta end my verse

<i>[Chorus - repeat to fade]</i>
