{Verse One} And uh I started out dumb Sprung off a hood rat Listening to the radio Wishing that I could rap But nothing changed I was stuck in the game Cause everybody in the industry was fucking me man Listen I've got a scheme Break away do my own thing Drop some conversation Sit back and let the phone ring Niggas they wanna see me rise '97 watch me cut these motherfuckers down to size And if I catch another case Lord knows how they hate me Got a playa in the court room Please don't let them frame me I've been dealt a lot of bad cards Living as a thug Count my blessings Don't stress in this land with no love Maybe if they see me rolling Look at all this green I'm holding I guess that's why the envious Get their eye swollen Hoping the Heavenly Father love a hustler Meet the hardest nigga on earth to ever bust a nut My homies tell me have a heart Fuck they feelings I've been trying to make a million since we started We cold hearted Niggas in masks that'll blast at the task force Empty out my clip Time to mash They asked for it Me Makaveli I'm a motherfucker We break bread Now we thug brothers Niggas talk a lot of nonsense I choose to ignore A war They ain't ready for
{Hook x2} Me Makaveli I'm a motherfucker Me Makaveli I'm a motherfucker Niggas talk a lot of nonsense I choose to ignore That I choose to ignore In masks that'll blast In masks that'll blast Empty out my clip Empty out my clip
{Verse Two}
Watch me clown Give me loving when I'm high I'ma outlaw baby I'll be thugging 'till I die In drop-top double R Life as a rap star Hustle like a crack fiend 'Till they catch me Go ask somebody to your show Watch them niggaz out the sight of my night scope Cooking white dope Got my nigga 25 to life stretched out Trying to have all the better things in life While Makaveli A born leader 10 millimeter Changing niggaz future like a schizophrenic palm reader Heed from out the bible I read See the meek shall inherit the earth And the strong will lead Hittin' weed like it alright I'm in the studio Making music all night My enemies cry whenever I rise They hate it 'till death Try to beat me out my last breath What cha gonna do?
{Hook x2} Me Makaveli I'm a motherfucker Me Makaveli I'm a motherfucker Niggas talk a lot of nonsense I choose to ignore That I choose to ignore In masks that'll blast In masks that'll blast Empty out my clip Empty out my clip
