Niggas is so gangsta, niggas is thugs Niggas'll spend their whole life peddling drugs Slanging dope in hopes of one day bein able To own their own label and give the game up Some niggas came up, some just didn't That's just the way it is, if it ain't meant it just isn't Some niggas'll get money and pay niggas to back em' So they can act up, feel comfortable, and rap tough And that's as backwards, cuz them niggas just gone keep coming back And that's when extortion happens You struggle to get free, I know how this shit be You deal with anything to live legitimately But you gone find if you do get in this industry It's best to be business me than against me Niggas get behind mics and ain't even MC's Niggas get on MTV just to diss me

They say why don't we increase the peace The only peace increased is that which deletes your peeps Cuz iggaz run mouths but they don't run streets Till that 4 5 will cease the speech Yeah it's a shame how the beef'll creep Could've readched the peep, now you're left with a horrible leak I'm try to be bleak with my speech as possible Just in case a nigga trying to throw me an obstacle I put you in a hospital, that's how I get at you Let the doc op on you, he don't rid you? You back on the streets? I send another hit at you This is not a hypocritical issue I will critical condition your tissue Give a fuck if all ten of them with you I throw an extra ten of them missiles Turn gangstas into gentlemen
