Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group They just gon' pick him up and zip him in the bag Try to retaliate, but they gon' get his assĪnd they ain't gon' be able to revive him in the ambulance No talkin' to the Feds, they hit 'em fast They get rid of you, if they throw the body in the white chalk might cough If him in the scene was comin' to the war Christ off, lights off Send up for homicide, body was lookin' gross Point blank range if you let 'em too close They don't want no part of a nigga that's comin' at 'em ambitiously with the toast Soon as they see the nigga hit then they ran Want you to ride in the whip then they stand Soon as you come up and start talkin' shit then they sprayin' If you see some grown folks of a higher pedigree especially if it be your boss He hit you with the artillery simply 'cause he didn't like youĬatch a disease of a gun cause it'll cough Then up on the passenger side of the vehicle Saw him roll up on the block and put some shots up in the head of a rival Now you ain't with the livin', cause you wasn't the shooter or didn't know how to shootĮither way feel the fury or I'll make the block crippleīe the nigga knowin' if he bust the Glocks it'll put you up in the hospitalĪnd they get a look at the way that the bullets sprayĮverybody about to know that we don't play Or if it has risen or if it will be forbiddenīy the way you was doin' shit that could've put you in prison People standin' over your body and they wonderin' if his soul'll be saved Six feet under with dirt on top of the roof This week, the streets just put him in a suit
