Keep Your Shit The Hardest |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
I want Monopoly money but I ain’t even halfway there |
'Cause doin' dirt, a nigga got to take the back way there |
What it is, is the biz and it’s dirty |
You’ll get rich but life expectancy is about thirty |
Place of business is the hallways, I’ve been up for four days |
On parole with warrants that’ll send me back to Rahway |
If I get caught across Jersey state lines |
Figure this 9−8 and I been runnin' since 8−9 |
So that’s like 9 years delinquent time, you speak in crime then you know |
9 years you owe, get knocked, 9 years you gonna go |
No probation or parole more time doin' nothin' |
Day room to the yard, writin' rhymes and frontin |
Carry niggas greasy because I’m built like that |
Bury niggas easy 'cause they get killed like that |
If you ain’t in it wit me then you in my way, but either or |
You will respect mine and leave TEC-9 and leave it for dude |
The realest you gonna feel is when you face your death |
«Sorry, I didn’t know» nigga, don’t even waste your breath |
Coppin' pleas not D why you flippin' |
Nigga know the only thing I’m really scared of is slippin' |
Lettin' a nigga catch you when I got my guard down, so I keep 'em up |
Noddin' off with one eye open, I can freak it |
But there’s gonna be a time when I close 'em both |
Lead poisonin', I’m a get hit with an overdose |
Over those drug things, crud things |
Think I don’t know my slug stains, or blood blaze |
Raw gun playin' drama, sadness to another niggas momma |
I’mma be the the one that puts you up inside shock trauma |
These are troublesome times and the crimes prevail |
And the dark side keep a nigga’s ass in jail |
Bada-boom, bada-bing, some of this and some of that |
I gots to boogie for a minute but you know I’m comin' back |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Try to show niggas but I can only hope they see |
You’s a little nigga fit right up in a 6 by 3 |
Layin' up like this, lips sewn shut eyes closed |
Niggas walk past the casket, damn shorty nice pose |
You was ballin' nigga 'til your ass got balled out, called out |
By some disrespectful ass niggas that go all out |
I bet you thought it was real funny, until it had to get cruddy |
Me walkin' off leavin' you with all this bloody |
What he gonna do when it’s all over for real |
And the last thing you seein' is that steel |
A blast of light, that’s what he seein' if you blast him right |
Hit him in his face and hear them close the casket tight |
'Cause it’s like it ain’t nothin' but endin' it to a nigga |
Street sweeper like ahhhh, sendin it to a nigga |
When you in the house you’ll play by house rules |
Two words you’ll never hear again are house lose |
And that’s house choose it ain’t gonna be that, 'cause I can’t see that |
Ready to get up in this nigga’s ass real good so where the weed at |
Believe that, you ain’t gon' see nothin' gettin' too familiar |
And I would tell you what I do but then I’d have to kill you |
And it ain’t even worth it, I ain’t gon' build nothin' |
So I just let you go be that same nigga, still frontin' |
Laughin' and shit, like you see somethin' funny |
What you sayin' sounds good, but let me see somethin' money |
For real |
(dog nigga, dog nigga, dog nigga, dog nigga nigga) |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
Now what y’all want me to do |
Keep your shit the hardest |
It’s about to go down |
Niggas is ready to start this |
War that’s for sure |
Nigga come and get it |
We ride or die, why? |
'Cause our niggas is wit it |
