[Ill Bill] A general can never live with the shame of defeat Play the position the same way in the street, labeled a creep Raised in the ways of the deep thinkers at the same time I learned the most valuable things From an uncle leaving syringes stuck in his veins Heroin dreams, cocaine wishes Seen a dope fiedn suck a dog's dick for a fix and It's twisted and sick on this immaculate planet on which we live That's why I keep a black bag of ammonia by my side ever since Hollow tip shells, one in the chamber Sign my name in blood, smudgen the paper Too many crab motherfuckers and haters Looking at me like I fucked their moms Till they wind up hog tied in the trunks of their cars It ain't no sunshine, I can smell the jealousy and envy You're thinking my glass is half full, I'm thinking it's half empty I think above the law, surpass insanity Smear your blood on the wall like the Manson Family Wtahc your mouth you don't know me homie Ill Bill, inappropriate like holding a baby, smoking a bogie Blow your brains out; leave you with an empty head, cause I'm a muthafucking villain like MC Ren
[Hook 2X: Ill Bill] I live the same life you lead, breathe the same air you breathe We similar, but no, you my enemy Bang the fuck out in the street, hold the block down with heat We similar, but no, you my enemy
