Make or Take |
| Man this world we live in Theres two to ways do everything |
| The right way and the wrong way, |
| Thens theres the short way and the long way. |
| But Im goina do my thing the dark mask way. |
| Im either goina make it or Im goina take it. |
| I got to make something or I got to take something |
| Even if it comes down to hustling in public |
| Im goina do whatever to avoid the stormy weather |
| Got my act together either make or take |
| (nine) |
| In the land of the free and the home of the brave |
| I still feel like a slave, my heart is dark like the bat cave |
| Dont cry… dry your eye… |
| We all goina die… but Im goina die fly |
| In the race the great paper chase |
| Moneys the only thing Im goina let you throw in my face |
| Corrupt political officials |
| Speak the issues, and dis u, like used toliet tissue |
| Im goina miss u when u fall into the flames its the same games |
| With new names, and new gains, same pains, and blood stains |
| Propaganda, I want to smoke trees in a havanna, wearing a bandanna |
| At the coppa cabanna, swear to God I split a nigga like a banana |
| Over currencies or property aint no stoppin me Im building a monopoly now copy me, each one teach one |
| Lessons of making and taking erasing, faking, and snaking |
| Serious like a jamaican |
| And I bring home the bacon daily, really, |
| I never fake it, I got to make it, like its sacred |
| Fuck around and Im goina take it |
| (nine) |
| My hand raps around dollar bills sends chills down my spine |
| Like cheap wine, so I gotta get mine, |
| All the time I rewind back to the day when I realized sometimes crime |
| Pays, theres a million ways to die but only one to live, |
| I need enough money to spend enough |
| Money to give cause I love my peeps and my peeps love me And I refuse to see them living in proverty |
| I gotta be on point, I anoit myself savior with new flavor |
| Like craig with my third eye I cried |
| Shed tears in the mind for being blind |
| Only thing left for me now is crime or ryhme |
| (nine) |
| I refuse to lose simular to chuck |
| Never bite the hand that feed u never bite the hand that buck (pow) |
| Now what! |
| stuck in a maze with only one way out |
| Figure it out thats what lifes about |
| Trail after trail, tribulation after tribulation |
| I want a black nation cause Im sick of the plantation |
| No more picking cotton have you forgotten |
| We the kings and queens of the earth |
| Now rome in the rotten apple, drinking snapple |
| Trying to get a little capital, spend it like Im crazy |
| Thats what rap will do, you got to maintain |
| Make sense out of whats insane and stay on top of your game |
| Dont blame nobody but yourself for your lack of wealth |
| Times get hard get sneaky like a stealth |
| Make or take is the thesis |
| I want pieces of the pie gotta do or die |
