Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want money in large amounts
My garage full of cars that bounce
Movin' my tapes in major weight
'Cause every dollar counts
Bustas is jealous and half these **** is punks
They runnin' off at the mouth
Till I fill it up with my pump
They jump, my automatic keep 'em wary
Why you frontin' like you really badass?
****, you scary
I been knowing you for years
We was high school peers
In junior high I was itchin' to kill
And you was ready to die
[Verse 2]
While you bullshittin', **** was dyin' and catchin' cases
Bustin' my automatics at motherfuckers in foreign places
Leavin' no trace, they see my face and they buried
Them bitches die in a hurry
Still I ride, I'm never worried
Mr. Makaveli tell me to ride and I'ma ride
Pick my enemies out the crowd
And motherfuckers die
It's not the way I want to live
My **** it's how it is
Homie got into a fight last night that killed his kids
[Verse 3]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me, ****, holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
[Verse 4]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me, ****, holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead
[Verse 5]
I ain't a killer, but don't push me dawg
For the family I'll send that ass straight to God
In this life I lead
I seen the most of my 23  years
My vision is blurry, the money is clear
Some of my peers eternally will sleep in a coffin
And when Nob' on the road
I'm extremely cautious
[Verse 6]
It happen that fast, split second you gone
At the top of my tombstone put
Nob' was raw
Outlaw till I'm under the floor
For Kadafi the Prince I stack dough
Like I clocked all the bricks
With a watch on my wrist, dawg
I know the time these days
We Outlawz, we gon' die this way
We already in the history books
'Pac made sure of that
Whatever you took, we takin' it back
You know it's all for the foundation
Outlawz, we still buildin' the thug nation
Holla atcha homies
[Verse 7]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me, ****, holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me, ****, holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead
[Verse 8]
It ain't nothin' but in between us
Oxygen is gettin' hot
Got a problem, old fag-ass ****, kickin' rocks
Now **** on the phone and a **** talkin' crazy
I don't know who to blame, him or **** killin' babies
I'm a New Jerz' Devil, the street creative rebel
Only got one shot to produce on every level
This is Maximus , go to the max I must
****, I came from not much
So money I clutch
[Verse 9]
Uh-uh Napoleon, the strength of strong arm
When they think they was in the right
I prove they movin' wrong
I'm a hardcore product of the ghetto
Been blessed fo' sho' to eat from out the ghetto
I maneuver in the right lane
Quick to push back brains
Switchin' to the left lane
I'm playin' my hands
And I'm plottin' on a fortune
It's gettin' hot and scorchin'
I'm diggin'' like a scorpion that torture they enemies
[Verse 10]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me, ****, holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
[Verse 11]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me **** holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead
[Verse 12]
Now with this outlaw lifestyle
That I been introduced to
Money and hoes keep us closer to Lucifer
Steady seducin' us and now I'm all for it
This the life for me and the law can't spoil it
So you can call it what the fuck you want
But I'm a ballin' alcoholic with a sawed-off pump
My mama ain't raised no punk
And neither did 'Pac
So when it jump off, I breathe for Yak'
Been puttin' in work so I walk with a bop
And it ain't safe at home so I sleep with a glock
Thug livin', uh, what the fuck'd be better?
I do my dirt with the family so we dyin' together
[Verse 13]
We on a mission fo' mo'
Gangstas shit on you hoes
We ain't fuckin' with you most
Just crooks and **** about they flow
Tryna live Godzilla
E.D.I. went from a Bad Boy to an anybody killer
Look out, wanted man, guns in hand
Stand firm, nuts and my pride, now let's burn
Bound to the fam' goin' down swingin'
Holdin' my ground and we the last ones breathin'
Won't stop until we even deep in the trenches
So many killings it's senseless
So in this life I lead I stay protected
By God, my squad, and this thing in my palm
Now all my hustlin' motherfuckers get your money, sing along
[Verse 14]
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me **** holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead, fiend for currency
Get high off weed
Collect G's, make my enemies bleed
When you see me **** holla my set
And watch 'em ride
Outlaw motherfuckers till we die
In this life I lead
