Lyrics
0:30It all began on the street to the back of a blue police vehicle
0:34Next come the bookings the way things is lookin
0:36It's Friday you in for a long stay
0:39Gettin shackled on the bus first thing come Monday
0:42Hopin in your mind you'll be released one day
0:44But knowin home is a place you're not goin for a long while
0:48Now you're up on the isle
0:49And the position that you in got you refusin' to smile
0:52But keep in mind there's a brighter day after your time spent
0:55Used to be wild but locked up you can't get bent
0:58Thought you could hack it now you're requestin PC
1:01You're fragile it ain't hard to see
1:03N***as like that don't associate with me
1:06I'd rather get busy to the third degree
1:09Cause the war in population's on infinitely
1:11If this was the street my razor would be a mac demon
1:15Hit you up leave your whole face screamin'
1:19Cats heard of me in street stories told inside this trap
1:23Who are you to look at me with your eyes like that
1:25Wisen up youngblood before you make things escalate
1:28And I would hate yo set your crooked a*s straight
1:32Make your moves at night
1:33Pack your heat in this war zone n***as is trife
1:36Runnin from one time ain't no time to slip
1:39Make one false move and it's a up north trip
1:41Livin the high life make your moves at night
1:44Pack your heat in this war zone n***as is trife
1:47Runnin from one time ain't no time to slip
1:50Make one false move and it's a up north trip
1:52You tried to dip duck but still got bucked
1:55You talk too much s**t you shoulda kept your mouth shut
1:58All that gossip motherf**ker don't you know my Glock kicks
2:01Hollow tips to your body mad toxic
2:04I fade you blow you with a rusty-a*s razor
2:06Did you a favor tried to wet you but I graze you
2:09Pop goes the Glock when there's beef on the block
2:12Chill for a while make them think the beef stop
2:14Then I creep like a thief in the night it's only right
2:17Ain't no turnin back it's on tonight
2:20And if I get caught then my a*s is up north
2:23Straight on the course for upstate New York
2:25Stress smokin back to back cigarettes
2:28It popped off one point in the mess hall
2:31But to avoid that from head to toe dipped in all black
2:34Hit them n***as where they pump they cracks at
2:37Havoc with the murder master plan
2:39Keep my nine up to par so my s**t won't jam
2:42God forbid if my s**t do run behind a tree
2:44Fix my s**t then hit you
2:46Slugs in your body mainly in your brain tissue
2:49Witness from the scene get ghost stash the pistol
2:55So simple then watch my back lay up and relax
3:07Roll a sack K-A black find a shorty to tap
3:19I got the power combine wit the powder and water
3:23It oughta drop in a half and hour
3:25In the form of oil watch the c*****e boil
3:28Keep my eye on it so the s**t won't spoil
3:31Then I pause and ask God why
3:34Did he put me on this Earth just so I could die
3:36I sit back and build on all the things I did wrong
3:39Why I'm still breathin and all my friends gone
3:42I try not to dwell on the subject for a while
3:44Cause I might get stuck in this corrupt lifestyle
3:47But my heart pumps foul blood through my arteries
3:51And I can't turn it back it's a part of me
3:53Too late for cryin I'm a grown man strugglin
3:55To reach the next level of life without fumblin
3:58Down to foldin I got no shoulder to lean on but my own
4:02All alone in this danger zone
4:05Time waits for no man the streets grow worse
4:07F**k the whole world kid my money comes first
4:10Cause I'm out for the gusto and trust nobody
4:13If you're not family then you die by me
4:15Cause n***as will have you locked up the snitch be your man
4:18Givin police the run down on your plans
4:21We're never goin down like that
4:23So I shut my mouth and hold my words back
4:25Illegal business forever mine f**k payin taxes
4:28The last kid that s**tted and gave police access
4:31To my blueprints used names as evidence
4:34Skipped town and I haven't seen the snitch n***a ever since
4:38The moral of the story is easy to figure out
4:43A lesson that you can't live without
4:49Livin the high life
4:53Livin the high life
