Stick Up Kid Lyrics


Rollin' in my two door Monte Carlo
Lookin' for somebody I can borrow
Five or ten dollars ‘til tomorrow
I’m doin' bad ya’ll, uh-uhn
I just smoked my last pack of cigarettes today
You ever seen a nigga diggin' in the ashtray
It’s a crumblin' and humblin' sight to see
I’m doin' bad ya’ll, ah-hah
And their teasin’ me with these twenty three's
And these DVDs in their ride
And they pass me by, b-b-by, b-b-by
And have the nerve to wonder why
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
That’s how I live, I admit it
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
And if you’re doin' too much

I’m comin' to get it
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
That’s how I live I admit it
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
And if you’re doin' too much
I’m comin' to get it
See lately I’ve been thinkin' 'bout savin' my soul
And do prayers make it to heaven from the ghetto
I asked all my friends but they all say they don’t know
It’s all bad ya’ll
And the preacher talkin' 'bout some stuff he don’t know
When church done became a fuckin’ fashion show
And they won’t let a nigga in with these timbos
It’s all bad ya’ll
And their teasin’ me with these twenty three's
And these DVDs in their ride
And they pass me by, b-b-by, b-b-by
And have the nerve to wonder why
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
That’s how I live I admit it
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
And if you’re doin' too much
I’m comin' to get it
I be robbin’ these niggas
I’m a stick up kid
That’s how I live I admit it
Oh, I be robbin’
I’m a stick up kid
And if you’re doin' too much
I’m comin' to get it
Nobody knows the trouble I see
Nobody knows but me
Nobody knows the trouble I see
Nobody knows but me
Oh, nobody knows the trouble I see
Nobody knows but me

Lyfe Jennings (born Chester Jennings in Toledo, Ohio) is an African American R&B and soul singer-songwriter, record producer, and instrumentalist. He plays the guitar, bass, and piano which he integrates into his music.

Jennings began singing at a young age in a Toledo church choir. He later joined a group called The Dotsons with two of his cousins and his older brother, Jay. The group separated in the early 1990s, and Jennings rediscovered music and started a music program at an Ohio prison where he was serving a ten-year sentence on an arson-related charge. He has cited Erykah Badu's 1997 album Baduizm as one of the reasons for his rediscovery. Jennings was released from prison in December 2002 and started to pursue a solo career in music. In January 2003, he performed in Harlem at the Showtime at The Apollo. The same year, he also independently released his first EP, What Is Love. To further pursue his career, Jennings moved to New York City where he performed at rapper Nelly's concert at Radio City Music Hall, at an NAACP convention where he performed an original song called "Thank God for the NAACP", and at the Cafeteria in Chelsea, Manhattan during the blackout on August 14. He signed with Columbia Records and released his debut album Lyfe 268-192 (268-192 was his inmate number) in August 2004. His first single was Stick Up Kid, which didn't see much sucess until after the album was released. The album featured his hit single "Must Be Nice". Jennings' second album The Phoenix was released in August 2006. The first single, "S.E.X.", feautures Jennings' protégé, singer LaLa Brown.
