0:21Blood in my eye, dawg, and I can't see
0:24I'm tryin' to be what I'm destined to be
0:27And niggas tryin' to take my life away
0:30I put a hole in nigga for fuckin' with me

0:53Now man, these pussy niggas puttin' money on my head
0:56Go on and get your refund, motherfucker, I ain't dead
0:59I'm the diamond in the dirt that ain't been found
1:02I'm the underground king and I ain't been crowned
1:05When I rhyme somethin' special happen every time
1:08I'm the greatest, somethin' like Ali in his prime
1:11I walk the block with the bundles
1:12I've been knocked on the humble
1:14Swing the ox when I rumble, show your ass what my gun do
1:17Got a temper, nigga, go 'head, lose your head
1:20Turn your back on me, get clapped and lose your legs
1:23I walk around gun on my waist, chip on my shoulder
1:26'Til I bust a clip in your face, pussy, this beef ain't over
1:29Many men

1:53Sunny days wouldn't be special if it wasn't for rain
1:56Joy wouldn't feel so good if it wasn't for pain
1:59Death gotta be easy, 'cause life is hard
2:02It'll leave you physically, mentally and emotionally scarred
2:04This is for my niggas on the block twistin' trees in cigars
2:07For the niggas on lock doin' life behind bars
2:10I don't say "Only God can judge me," 'cause I see things clear
2:13Crooked-ass crackers will give my black-ass a hundred years
2:16I'm like Paulie in Goodfellas, you can call me the Don
2:19Like Malcolm by any means with my gun in my palm
2:22Slim switched sides on me, let niggas ride on me
2:25I thought we was cool, why you want me to die, homie?

2:52Every night I talk to God, but he don't say nothin' back
2:55I know he protectin' me, but I still stay with my gat
2:58In my nightmares niggas keep pullin' TEC's on me
3:01Psychic says some bitch done put a hex on me
3:04The feds didn't know much when Pac got shot
3:07I got a kite from the pens that told me Tut got knocked
3:10I ain't gonna spell it out for you motherfuckers all the time
3:13Are you illiterate, nigga? You can't read between the lines?
3:16In the Bible it says what goes around comes around
3:19"Hommo" shot me, three weeks later he got shot down
3:22Now it's clear that I'm here for a real reason
3:25'Cause he got hit like I got hit, but he ain't fuckin' breathin'
3:28Many men
3:30Many, many, many, many men
3:33Wish death 'pon me
3:35Lord, I don't cry no more
