Am

All them race for the money

Put a hole in your tummy,

G 
You crossed the game that

And fuckin with the Outlawz will
Am

I guzzle my pipe and think about the
shit I ain't never had (uh- huh)

Am

a nigga fucked up
I don't know who to trust,

I crush any competitor,
writin back his editor
Leave your body leakin,

G 
Pledge you then a edge you on,

Am 
I'm explosive when
my rap over- doses
Label me ferocious on
'Wanted' signs posted
G 
See me on the screen like blood
on murder scenes
Midnight screams, sharp- shooter team
Am 
The williest, silliest,
but yet I'm dead serious
Hate me with a passion up
in the club mashin
G 
Foul minds,
I'm in your ears like a loud nine
Holdin off screamin,
yeah niggaz it's about time
Am 
It's on again, got a brother feelin born again
I swore to win then,
naturally my order's in
G 
Recorded and stated,
let the record show I made it
This dated when we blewin, and how you
Am 
mother fuckers traded
Outlawz!

One time, knockin they hotter with

They eyes was watchin,

G 
And you ain't never had a nigga

Am 
And you ain't never had soldiers
that'll hold you down
And you ain't never know
killers that loan you pounds
G 
And you ain't never had bitches
that'll fuck the clan
Better yet, have bitches
that'll fuck your man
Am 
And you ain't never had soldiers
to floss the week
You couldn't hustle down
the way nor walk the beat
G 
And you ain't never had a clique
that was thorough and tough
And you ain't never know Yak and
Am 
Pac so give it up!

Verse 6
Am 
[Kastro - Verse 4] I love bitches
and all types of fast
cars (hahaha...me too)
Loud guns, money- runs,
and those strip bars
G 
We watch the sun turn to stars,
back to sun again
I put a box under rocks to dump a body in
Am 
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
G 
We gas up, trouble,
bubble in my belly (uh)
Every body knew it but ain't
Am 
nobody try to tell me

Verse 7

Chorus
G 
Am 
[Mil - Verse 5]
G 
Am 
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
G 
When I rolled on your block,
all I see is your pump
When you roll through my hood,
Am 
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
G 
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
Am 
[EDI - Verse 6] Every day I'm

Verse 8
stuck in
this game so I got to play it
Yeah I made up my bed so
I got to lay in it
G 
There's only one way out,
limo, window tinted
My momma prayin daily for my spirit
Am 
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
G 
Meals, I'm gonna get it,
but it's about what happens when I get it
Will these niggaz come clackin for my
Am 
trinkets? Think it's a   joke?
Part it out while I kick it and smoke
We live on the ropes,
triple- beam hopes
G 
Simple schemes broke,
two minutes to go alone
Fall or come up, fuck it, stack ones up
Am 
I keep my guns up, for these killers
My eyes on these bitches
And when it's me and the law,
G 
shit I'm the first to draw
Maintain, till the end of the game
Maintain, till the end of the game,
Am 
you hear me man?
