- Where my dogs at? Where my dogs at?
What must I go through to show you shit is real
And I ain't never really gave a what how brothers feel
Rob and I steal, not because I want to
Because I have to
Don't make me show you what this MAC do
If you don't by now
Then you slipping
I'm on some bull that got me jacking
Brothers flipping
Let my man and them stay pretty
I'ma stay gritty
Cruddy, it's all for the money
Is you with me
Get the [...] and I'll commit the crime
And when it's on
We transform like Optimus Prime
I'll form the head - Roll out!
- Let's make it happen
If we ain't going to get it with this
We'll take his cap, too
Busting off, dusting off in the softest brother
Money with the biggest mouth
Yo, let's off that brother
Up north, this brother wouldn't make a sound
Breathe too effing hard, and you get bust down
- Ladies and gentlemen, Griselda.
- Hey, yo I'm in I'm in the hood
Eighty K house, million dollar neck
Shot off 200 rounds.
... know the rest
My coke be the best, talking no steps
Headshot took off his whole left
- You know how I rock, six figures off Zaza
Come and spend at my shop
I turn your hood to a hotspot
- Ah!
- Every game I feel like I'm Dame without a stopwatch
Shootin' before the shot clock
Griselda got the top spot
Locked down like a pawn shop
- I'm thinkin', "Why not?" - Ah!
- I gave my life to the game, but what do I got
- Huh, yeah, you throwin' shots?
You better be precise
If I only squeeze it twice, that's me bein' polite
- Uh
- We was in the trenches, four chicken wings and rice
Shooter 14, can't read or write, but he gon' squeeze his pipe
- Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom
- Hey, yo, DJ, turn it up! - Make some noise!
Let's get some energy. Let's get some energy.
[ Chatter ]
Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
Have that ... in the cut, where the wood at?
Oh, them boys actin' up?
Where the wolves at?
You better bust that if you gon' pull that
- Yo! BET, what's good?
- Turn it up!
Where the hood at
I said I'm slipping I'm falling
I can't get up
So either let me fly Or give me death
I said I'm slipping I'm falling
I can't get up
Let my soul rest
Take my breath
I've been through mad different phases like
Masons to find my way
But now I know the happy days are not far away
If I'm strong, I live long enough to see my kids
Doing something more acceptable with their time
Other than bids because they was forcing me to be a man
Without a helping hand, trying to stand
Damn!
I said I'm slipping I'm falling
I gots to get up
Get back on my feet so I can tear it up
Just 'cause I love my ...
I shed blood with all my ...
Let a ... holla
"Where my ...?"
All I wanna hear is, "Right here, my ..."
Shut it down, open up shop
Oh, no That's how Ruff Ryders roll
This thing right here
- Chk chk
- Is for my peoples in the streets
Swizz Beats
And this thing right here
Will get your ass off the seat
Let's go When I pop up
- When I pop up, I lock shop up, pull the drop up
Park a block up, hit the alarm, put the top up
Stash the 'dro in my sock then pull my sock up
- Uh-huh
- Keep the burner but when it's hot
- Where you at? - Put my Glock up
- Y'all homies ain't hearin' me out, 'til I pop up
Appear in your house, clearin' it out, holiday style
Everybody actin' violent and wild
Snatch the wife, silence the child, that's how we move
- My dogs gon' stop, your dogs gon' drop
And then we gon' shut 'em down, open up shop
First we had 'em like, "Oh"
Now they like, "No"
What baby That's how Ruff Ryders roll
- I want to see everybody put their hands in the air
for the dog right now!
Y'all gon' make me lose my mind
Up in here, up in here
Y'all gon' make me go all out
Up in here, up in here
Y'all gon' make me act a fool
Up in here, up in here
Y'all gon' make me lose my cool
Up in here, up in here
If I gots to bring it to you cowards,
then it's gonna be quick
- What?
- All your mans that been to jail before, suck my ...
And all them other cats you run with, get done with dumb quick
How the ... you gon' cross the dog on some bum ...
Ah, there go the gun click, 911 ...
All over some dumb ...
Ain't that some ... - Hey
- Y'all ... remind me of a strip club
'Cause every time you come around, it's like what?
I just gotta get my ... - Hey!
- And I don't know who the ... you think you talkin' to
But I'm not him, aight, Slim
So watch what you do
Or you gon' find yourself buried next to someone else
And we all thought you loved yourself
But that couldn't have been the issue
Or maybe they just saying that now
'cause they miss you
... tried to diss you
That's why you laying on your back
Looking at the roof of the church
Preacher tellin' the truth and it hurts
- Y'all gon' make me lose my mind.
- Up in here, up in here.
Father God, I am just learning how to prey
Bear with me
First I thank you for the life of everyone that's here with me
Then I thank you for the love you give me
Many a nights I cried and called your name out loud
But didn't call you when I was doin' good,
Too proud
And still, you gave me love
I wasn't used to that
Most of the people that gave me love ended up takin' it back
That's somethin' new to me
So I'm askin' you for time to adjust
Let me make it there, I will be one you can trust
What I stand for, I put my life on, I do
I guess what I'm askin' is
Show me how to stand for you
And I will rap for you, sing for you,
Reach for you, preach for you, teach for you
I will love you like you love me: unconditionally
And whenever I go, before I go, let me give
Thanks to you Lord, for my birth,
for every day that I've lived
You gave me a love most of my life
I didn't know was there
I give you my life, 'cause you cared
Amen
- Rest in peace, man!
