| Before becoming a runaway slave, here’s a taste of
|
| Mental slavery. |
| A backtrack…
|
| («You don’t catch hell because you’re a Methodist or a Baptist
|
| You don’t catch hell because you’re a Democrat or Republilcan
|
| You don’t catch hell because you’re a Mason or an Elk
|
| And you sure don’t catch hell because you’re an American
|
| Because if you were an American you wouldn’t catch no hell
|
| You catch hell because you’re a black man.»)
|
| Check it, many try to come close
|
| Rest in peace to the deceased and the rest are comatose
|
| I’m not a joke and I go for broke
|
| And while I’m laughing you’ll be gagging from the motherfucking gunsmoke
|
| Walk the streets and I play for keeps
|
| And while I entertain suckers stay six feet deep
|
| It was good while it lasted
|
| Broken bones and asses, tombstones and caskets
|
| I got fleeced, I’m not strapped, I’m a get you back
|
| Me saying «Mayday» with an AK, picture that
|
| Getting my props while you’re propless
|
| And if you try and escape, we’ll take grandma for hostage
|
| I carry my joint
|
| Hoping to smoke a sucker just to keep on point
|
| When Dre’s team goes to extremes call up an M. D
|
| Wetting a strip til my whole clip is empty
|
| Oh-ops and tecs ready to wreck the site
|
| Whoever’s next to step is knifed in broad daylight
|
| Don’t try to run, you’ll get blocked off
|
| I got spotted by a cop, so now that cop is knocked off
|
| If I get back I get out with the quickness
|
| The D.A., the judge and the jury’s on my hitlist
|
| Dressed in black with a hoodie and a low hat
|
| (What you did?) Spoke to the witness, now the witness don’t know jack
|
| The Giant and his crew are ill
|
| We’re sick-ass convicts, we’re hard to kill
|
| My boys from New York (Is hard to kill)
|
| The brothers from Jersey (Is hard to kill)
|
| I say out in Philly (Is hard to kill)
|
| And the brothers in Boston (Is hard to kill)
|
| To all my peeps in Cali (Is hard to kill)
|
| Don’t forget about Atlanta (Is hard to kill)
|
| To all my boys in Connecticut (Is hard to kill)
|
| To my crew in Texas (Is hard to kill)
|
| I’m around the way, 141st and 3rd
|
| 40 bottles on the curb and my man got the bag of herb
|
| Another brother tried to get ill
|
| And try to take me out on my block, he forgot I was hard to kill
|
| I ran for cover so the brother missed
|
| He hit my man in the head, now Ed is dead, yo what is this?
|
| I won’t stop until I see him rest
|
| He got popped by the cops, too late for the EMS
|
| Ain’t no chance for survival (Why's that?)
|
| He tried to go head on, now he’s dead on arrival
|
| Now you know I don’t play around
|
| Cause the clown is face down and uptown is his burial ground
|
| You want beef? |
| Well the more the merrier
|
| And I’m a bury that man’s clan in the same area
|
| My entourage is fully strapped
|
| Turning your hard bodyguards to wussy, and pussy cats
|
| You know how we do it
|
| Putting the Glock to the test, go get your vest, I’m going right through it
|
| He survived in intensive care
|
| Did the impossible in the hospital (Knocked him off right there)
|
| I’m an expert at disposal
|
| You see, everyone goes, on foes I’m killing hoes too
|
| Nobody takes the witness stand
|
| Your ass is out, I’m cleaning niggas out like Spic 'n' Span
|
| You want beef with a mastermind?
|
| But it’s fine, pass the nine, now it’s disaster time
|
| I love conflict and confrontation
|
| Killing enemies worse than Kennedy’s assassination
|
| But that’s not my style
|
| I just got buckwild so I could prove I was versatile
|
| Styles go on and on
|
| A.G. is all about peace, speaking of peace, now I’m gone
|
| To the brothers in D.C. (Is hard to kill)
|
| And the brothers in VA (Is hard to kill)
|
| Down in North Carolina (Is hard to kill)
|
| How about the brothers in Maryland? |
| (Is hard to kill) |
