VERSE 2

Just because I kick it with killas don't mean that I do it my
occupation is a musician and im staying true to it I went from
being a ridah to being a provider while I was straddling the
benz trying not to hit the divider just a impressional human
being trying to do right every now and then I get my manner
tested in fight like I used to have a beef with this cat named
eight and his homies approached me at the club at ray what was I
to do im on stage and im doing my thang and this niggas out in
the crowd trying to hoo bang giving it up for his homies and set
tripping too but he wasn't from roadie 6 these more like triaged
me I wondered whats his problem what hes trying to say is his
business personal or just fuck dj quik day I approached him like
a man and not like a nut he turned around and put his drink down
and straight out pulled up in a dark club punches is flying all
around and even though it was me and him the rumors were around
they said I killed somebody now how that sound how could I smoke
someone to
death thats bigger than me and I'm just 155 pounds tell em

CHORUS

VERSE 3

See some don't realize about the power of lyrics cuz when you
rap about death you talking to spirits you see you can say the
things that can help us all ball but you can say things that
making bad for us all fixing the problem the only way is come to
the source don't be a trojan horse help us change the course
everybody knows that its bad in the hood so check what you
rapping about if it aint to the good I did my part a long time
ago I changed my views aint no gang banging slanging just
hanging with trues give it up to my creator and that you could
quote the mother fuckers still see me as a scapegoat yeah like
that night with biggie how they cost you your spot yeah like 400
other people yeah I heard some shots broke away with the crowd
nervous obviously and the mother fuckers blamed it on me what
the heeeeell
