Yes, 1996 marches the beginning of a new era The disfunctional member of the alkohaliks family It’s xzibit Sometimes I wonder if it’s all worth my while Xzibit stay versitile with million dollar lifestyle And I can feel it as a child growin’ up The niggas that was real and the niggas that was scared as fuck It's why xzibit only roll with a chosen few You ain't really real I can tell when I look at chu So ease off the trigga talk you ain’t killin shit It’s not affecting me or the niggas that I'm chillin with I don’t believe the hype or buy woof tickets Nigga you make a gang of noise and never seem like a cricket I guess that’s why we never kick it A lot of niggas is soft and get tossed tryin to fuck wit the liquid How many niggas do you know like this? Always claimin that they’re riding but they really turn bitch It don’t make sense Either you’re a soldier from the start Or an actor with a record deal tryna play the part Like dat

See, I don’t need no lights no cameras ,just action god dammit Never no superstar I'm more like a planet So my composure is kept while others start to sweat Emerging from the fog with my fucked up dialogue Try to live high on the hog leaves you bankrupt And niggas you spent it on, would not give a fuck Now that’s deep, how deep, it’s deeper than atlantis Home of the scandalous Big bad los angeles Dangerous, vandelous Yo not to be trusted Now how the fuck is you hard Not being scared by the boulevard I'm pullin that card and sayin gin muthafucka Flowin like liquid soak it in muthafucka I'm breakin it down my sounds surrounds like death From the west Puttin whole counties to the test It’s all in perspective Breaker one-nine copy This is for the niggas gettin caught up in the paparazzi

Niggaz smoke stress and cross dress but I just play the back Others going through schemes and pipe dreams for a contract Real tightly rolled fuck ’em all how I feel I made a cool half mil before I had a record deal Therefor you look and stare like it’s magic But too much of anything can make you a addict Whenever devils be startin static, break out the automatic I set it off straight I spread hate Then I vacate, but wait Who dares to cross this path yo I do ya like math Cut ya with glass make a bloodbath So on behalf of all niggas I get drunk with Smokin blunts with I dispose of your punk shit Heh heh and keep it all in perspective Carbon copies gettin caught up in the paparazzi Once again, it´s the liquidation crew, and I return for you like this
