[00:25.630]The corners is the hot spot, full of mad criminals
[00:28.460]Who don't care, guzzling beers, we all stare
[00:30.840]At the out-of-towners, they better break North
[00:33.010]Before we get the four pounders and take their face off
[00:35.430]The streets is filled with undercovers, homicide chasing brothers
[00:38.610]The D's on the roof tryna watch us and knock us
[00:41.280]And killer coppers, even come through in helicopters
[00:43.960]I drink a little vodka, spark a L and hold a Glock
[00:46.700]For the fronters, wannabe ill niggas and spot runners
[00:48.880]Thinking it can't happen 'til I trap 'em and clap 'em

[01:30.240]The school drop-out, never liked the shit from day one
[01:32.810]Cause life ain't shit but stress, fake niggas, and crab stunts
[01:35.730]So I guzzle my Hennesey while pulling on mad blunts
[01:38.350]The brutalizer, Brutus-izer, accelerator
[01:41.220]The type of nigga who be pissing in your elevator
[01:43.720]Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game
[01:46.140]Used to sport Bally's and Cazals with black frames

[02:09.310]I used to wake up every morning, see my crew on the block
[02:11.730]Every day's a different plan that had us running from cops
[02:14.300]If it wasn't hanging out in front of cocaine spots
[02:16.920]We was at the candy factory, breaking the locks
[02:19.440]Nowadays, I need the green in a flash just like the next man
[02:22.420]Fuck a yard God, let me see a hundred grand
[02:25.100]Could use a gun son, but fuck being the wanted man
[02:27.610]But if I hit rock bottom then I'mma be the Son of Sam
