Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 2]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 3]
I want Monopoly money but I ain't even half way there
Do a dirt, a **** gotta take the back way there
What it is is the biz and its dirty
You'll get rich but life expectancy is about thirty
Take the business is the hallways, I been up for four days
On parole with warrants that'll send me back the raw way
If I get caught across Jersey state lines
Figure this '98 and I been running since '89
So that's like nine years delinquent time
You speaking crime than you know
Nine years you owe it's not nine years you gonna go
No probation or parole, more time doing nothing
They roam to yard writing rhymes an fronting
[Verse 4]
Carry **** greasy because I'm built like that
Bury **** easy 'cause they get killed like that
If you ain't in it with me than you in my way
But either or, you will respect mine
And leave the Tec-9 and leave it for dude
[Verse 5]
The realest you gonna feel is when you face your death
Sorry I didn't know, ****, don't even waste your breath
Cropping pleas, not D, why you flipping?
**** know the only thing I'm really scared of is slipping
Letting a **** catch me when I got my guard down
So I keep em up
Nodding off with one eye open
I can freak but there's a time when I'm close 'em both
Lead poisoning, I'm a get hit with an overdose
[Verse 6]
So I don't thug things, drug things
Think I don't know a slug stains or blood blaze
Raw gun playing drama
Sadness to another ****'s momma
I'm a be the one that puts you up inside the trauma
These are troublesome times
And the crime prevails
And the dark side keeps a ****'s ass in jail
Bada-boom-bada-bing some of this and some of that
Gotta boogie for a minute but you know I'm coming back
[Verse 7]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 8]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 9]
Try to show **** but I can only hope they see
You a little ****, fit right up in a six by three
Laying up like this
Lips sewn shut, eyes closed
**** walk past the casket, damn shorty, nice pose
You was balling ****, till your ass got balled out
Called out by some disrespectful ass **** that go all out
I bet you thought it was real funny
Until it had to get cruddy
Me walking off leaving you with all this bloody
[Verse 10]
What he gonna do when it's all over for real
And the last thing you see is that steel
A blast of light, that's what he seeing if you blast him right
Hit him in the face and hear that closed casket tight
Get it right it ain't nothing but ending it to a ****
Street sweeper like oh
Sending it to a ****
When you in the house you play by the house rules
Two words you'll never hear again are house lose
And that's house choose it ain't gonna be that
'Cause I can't see that
Ready to get in them ****'s ass real good, so where the weed at?
[Verse 11]
Believe that you ain't going to see nothing to familiar
And I would tell you what to do but then I have to kill you
And it ain't even worth it I ain't going to build nothing
So I'm just gonna let you go be that same ****
Still fronting, laughing and shit
Like you see something funny but you say it sound good
But let me see something money
For real
(Go ****, go ****, go ****, go ****, ****)
[Verse 12]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 13]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 14]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
[Verse 15]
Now what y'all want me to do?
Keep your shit the hardest
It's about to go down
**** is ready to start this war that's for sure
They can come and get it
We ride and die, why?
'Cause our **** is with it
