  • [Verse One: Prodigy]
  • It all began on the street, to the back of a blue police vehicle
  • Next come the bookings, the way things is lookin
  • It's Friday, you in for a long stay
  • Gettin shackled on the bus first thing come Monday
  • Hopin in your mind you'll be released one day
  • But knowin, home is a place you're not goin for a long while
  • Now you're up on the isle
  • In a position that you ain't got to refusin to smile
  • But keep in mind there's a brighter day, after your time spent
  • Used to be wild, but locked up, you can't get bent
  • Thought you could hack it, now you're requestin P
  • See you're fragile, it ain't hard to see
  • Niggas like that don't associate with me
  • I'd rather, get busy to the third degree
  • cause the wrong population's on infinitely
  • If this was the street, my razor would be a mack demon
  • Hit you up, leave your whole face screamin
  • What you in for kid - bustin nuts?
  • Cats heard of me in street stories told inside this trap
  • Who are you to look at me wit'char eyes like that
  • Wising up young blood, before you make things escalate
  • And I would hate yo set your crooked ass straight...
  • [Chorus]
  • Make your moves at night
  • Pack your heat in this war zone, niggas is trife
  • Runnin from one time, ain't no time to slip
  • Make one false move and it's a up north trip
  • Livin the high life, make your moves at night
  • Pack your heat in this war zone, niggas is trife
  • Runnin from one time, ain't no time to slip

  • [Verse Two: Havoc]
  • You tried to dip, duck, but still got bucked
  • You talk too much shit, you shoulda kept your mouth shut
  • All that gossip, motherfucker don't you know my glock kicks
  • Hollow tips, to your body, mad toxic
  • I fade you, blow you with a rusty-ass razor
  • Did you a favor, tried to wet you but I graze you
  • Pop goes the glock when there's beef on the block
  • Chill for a while make them think the beef stop
  • Then I creep like a thief in the night, it's only right
  • Ain't no turnin back, it's on tonight
  • And if I get caught then my ass is up north
  • Straight on the course for upstate New York
  • Stress, smokin back to back cigarettes
  • It popped off, one point in the mess hall
  • But to avoid that, from head to toe, dipped in all black
  • Hit them niggas where they pump they cracks at
  • Havoc, with the murder master plan
  • Keep my nine up to par, so my shit won't jam
  • God forbid if my shit do, run behind a tree
  • Fix my shit then hit you, slugs in your body
  • Mainly in your brain tissue
  • Witness from the scene, get ghost, stash the pistol
  • So simple then, watch my back, lay up and relax

  • Did he put me on the serve, just so I could die
  • I sit back and build on, all the things I did wrong
  • Why I'm still breathin, and all my friends gone
  • I try not to dwell on the subject for a while
  • Cause I might get stuck in this corrupt lifestyle
  • But my, heart pumps foul blood through my arteries
  • And I can't turn it back it's a part of me
  • Too late for cryin, I'm a grown man strugglin
  • To reach the next level of life, without fumblin

  • All alone in this danger zone
  • Time waits for no man, the streets grow worse
  • Fuck the whole world kid my money comes first

  • 'cause ain't no such things as halfway crooks
  • scared to death, scared to look
  • livin' the live that of diamonds and guns
  • there's numerous ways you can choose to earn funds...earn funds
  • some of 'em get shot, locked down and turn nuns
  • cowardly hearts end straight up shook ones...shook ones
  • he ain't a crook son, he's just a shook one...shook one
  • [Havoc]
  • For every rhyme I write, its 25 to life
  • yo, it's a must the gats we trust safeguardin' my life
  • ain't no time for hesitation

  • Queensbridge niggas don't play
  • I don't got time for your petty thinking mind
  • son, I'm bigga than those claimin' that you pack heat
  • but you're scared to hold
  • and when the smoke clears you'll be left with one in your dome
  • 13 years in the projects, my mentality is what, kid
  • you talk a good one but you don't want it
  • sometimes I wonder do I deserve to live
  • or am I going to burn in hell for all the things I did
  • no time to dwell on that 'cause my brain reacts
  • front if you want kid, lay on your back
  • I don't fake jacks kid, you know I bring it to you live
  • stay in a child's place, kid you out o' line
  • criminal minds thirsty for recognition

  • Every day of my life since 11-2-74
  • on the street makin non-stop CREAM galore
  • Packin heat, stickin up weed stores and more
  • Collectin interest off of extortions to settle my score
  • It gets deeper when things get real
  • I'm down to stickin out West Bank for my mill
  • And I'm from Hampstead, it's close to the shacks of Park South
  • Well I'll be outside slingin, you're always high
  • And don't come around to the crossroads of life
  • We're to the death, you and me, this beef for eternity
  • I'm goin out to the fullest extent
  • So far into my troubles it's hard for me to get back
  • to my everyday self and composure
  • Catch you when you open then I bring you to a closure
  • Put ice on a razor and freeze ya when ya shelter
  • I went for ya grill but you dent from my ?rolder?
  • I know this kid who says he knows ya because of that
  • Now I know where ya lay ya hat at and that's that
  • Say no more, I put it on you while you was yawning
  • Murder without warning the very next morning
  • Once we step thru the door, party over, that's the endin
  • You and your crew'll leave out, a bunch of dead men
  • Bump me and I'll bump you back
  • You ain't tough black, niggas like you just get their life jacked
  • But I'ma cool nigga til you push me thru the limit
  • But try ta play me and ya ass I get up all in it
  • Don't try to cop please now son, it's dead and done
  • (I gave you fair warning) So run and get your guns
  • It's on, time to show em how I perform
  • My attitude'll transform, leave you dead plus wrong
  • Gettin the flow within, representin for Queens
  • Shit is real, why you hopin that it's all a dream

  • Yo it's a settup, them niggas got me fed up
  • Ty stay in the buildin, if they move fuckin buck em
  • Get up off the scene, you know what I mean?
  • and hide yourself down with them other fuckin sixteen
  • Glock and get off they block
  • Then I hung up the cellular, ready to rock
  • and it's on
  • Yo, you get deaded in the streets, kid set it
  • You gots no credit, fool you get wetted
  • up with the semi-auto Mac double, love it
  • 'Did he shoot eleven or twelve?' is what he wondered
  • Nigga I got one more shot, you must be drinkin
  • Put the heater to his head, watch him start blinkin
  • 'Am I goin to heaven or hell?' is what he's thinkin
  • Switch to a bitch as his life start sinkin
  • down to a level of no return
  • Pull out the heat cos when the slugs hit it definitely burns
  • Now chill and think about your life for real
  • Every member of my crew is livin life for real
  • Got your self fucked into somethin that you couldn't finish
  • Up against the fulliest squad and get diminished
  • I'm from Q-U-E another E-N-S
  • So why you small tough talk? I'm not impressed
