[Young Noble - Verse 3] And you ain't never had a nigga that'll die for you And you ain't never had a nigga that'll cry for you And you ain't never had a nigga that'll pay your rent And you ain't never know niggaz that was truly legit And you ain't never had soldiers that'll hold you down And you ain't never know killers that loan you pounds And you ain't never had bitches that'll fuck the clan Better yet, have bitches that'll fuck your man And you ain't never had soldiers to floss the week You couldn't hustle down the way nor walk the beat And you ain't never had a clique that was thorough and tough And you ain't never know Yak and Pac so give it up! [Kastro - Verse 4] I love bitches and all types of fast cars (hahaha...me too) Loud guns, money-runs, and those strip bars We watch the sun turn to stars, back to sun again I put a box under rocks to dump a body in And I swin in sin, couldn't pretend it's all well My world is a jail cell, I can't seem to find bail We gas up, trouble, bubble in my belly (uh) Every body knew it but ain't nobody try to tell me We maintain! Chorus [Mil - Verse 5] I'm a hell-raisin nigga and I'll burn the place up (Mil) The streets made me, look at me now and I'm straighten up When I rolled on your block, all I see is your pump When you roll through my hood, niggaz'll fuck you up You're weak, won't live long, niggaz rely on luck Speak it cheap-goin nigga, I got the heart of a thug Leave your pillow like a puddle of a blood And I'm gonna show you how it is to stomp and never been love at all [EDI - Verse 6] Every day I'm stuck in this game so I got to play it Yeah I made up my bed so I got to lay in it There's only one way out, limo, window tinted My momma prayin daily for my spirit Fuck that! I'm here to stay nigga deal with it And I'm one of the real niggaz that's actually real with it Meals, I'm gonna get it, but it's about what happens when I get it Will these niggaz come clackin for my trinkets? Think it's a joke? Part it out while I kick it and smoke We live on the ropes, triple-beam hopes Simple schemes broke, two minutes to go alone Fall or come up, fuck it, stack ones up I keep my guns up, for these killers My eyes on these bitches And when it's me and the law, shit I'm the first to draw Maintain, till the end of the game Maintain, till the end of the game, you hear me man?
