Your rating:

(feat. Althea)



[Male voice]

Fox Five



[Althea]

Ohhh yeahh, yeah, ooh

Yeahhh-yeah-yeah, ohhh, ohhhh



[Verse One: Foxy Brown]

From the cradle til' now, still Fox, just a little more mature

Seen it with my bare eyes, did it all before

Been through hell on earth

Playin' out my role I was given since birth, receptin' it well

Go hard at them critics, they expect me to fail

Work hard for my fans, they expect me to sell

They suspect I'm livin' well

But they don't know the pain I feel

Five minutes away from gettin' killed, it's ill

My moms always hug me when I'm leavin'

I wake up cryin' because death bugs me when I'm sleepin'

Jam Master died, it's like I ain't done grievin'

Big and Pac gone and look we still beefin'

And son even, we at odds in these days

where niggas die over cars and they chains

I thank God that I'm saved and I'mma hold it down in this game

Now, from the cradle to the grave



[Chorus: Althea]

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way



[Verse Two: Foxy Brown]

From the cradle til now, I been through it all y'all

Y'all don't know half the things, I been through it dawg

Pain and sufferation, I been through it all

My heart's still cold, I been through the storm

Confused all these years, shit, we grew all these years 

I remember me and you on the stairs

Talkin' bout what we gonna do when we're big

Money came into play and best friends went they way, shit

I wish it never had to go that way, uh

The price of fame can cost a whole friendship

Yeah we got dollars, but it's senseless

So I pray to God for forgiveness and ask him to carry me through

all the stress and the drama in this business

I bare witness, I Fox, and keep going strong until my heart stop

and keep flowing strong with a ?rap pon coc?, c'mon



[Chorus: Althea]

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way



[Althea]

As a little girl I wish I knew that I

would be goin' through the drama that's in my life

All the sufferin', everywhere I been

How I get myself in all this bullshit I'm in



[Verse Three: Foxy Brown]

From now til' the grave, I look back at my life

smile and say "wow" in amazement

All these roadblocks, wonder how did I make it

wonder how I 'came famous, I'm impressed with me

It's like rumours been obsessed with me

but the truth never told, it was left with me

And what's left for me, is to extend my hand

If they don't reach then I'll let them be

I got to live my life right

but I wouldn't change how I lived my like 

if I could live my life twice

Y'all don't understand what Inga's life's like

A black stressed, I turned my back to the world

and now I'm back to the world, this black girl's blessed

Yeah, my fans helped me through it

I was destined to blaze from the cradle to the grave

Thank God my fam helped me through it (c'mon)



[Chorus: Althea]

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way

From the cradle to the grave

I, wish I knew my life would end up being this way
