Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He got the eye and the heart to do it
Yeah, from the roof with a scope
There's a whole art to it
Ain't no emotion when he pulls the trigger
Breathe second of silence, then you see what he do to ****
Pistols, rifles, grenades, whatever
He's a killing machine
Bought and paid for and clever and way iller than the last ****
Smoke a **** in the club then dance right past ****
Once in awhile there'll be one who will stand out
Who's more than psycho, will take any man out
With a certain passion for sending bullets blasting
A certain fashion to the way this **** whacks 'em
And this assassin gets mad satisfaction
From putting all this worthless scum outta action
A sense of pride in his skill
Looks in the mirror and salutes before he rides for the kill
[Verse 2]
You got the bag, Pop? I got the the thing-thing
It's in the sling, here it is, let me let it ring
With the du-du-du-du-du-du-du
Or do it lawnmower style (Rrrt)
You got the bag, Pop? I got the the thing-thing
It's in the sling, here it is, let me let it ring
I got potatoes in the mufflers and the whole thing
With the
[Verse 3]
Buckin' at nigg'as wigs while he's puffin' on cigs
Lay 'em down, then he bounce out of town to another gig
It ain't nothin', he don't need many friends
For all the different type of weapons, he got plenty of them
If you pass him on street, or see him in the spot
He's always calm, cool, collected, very rarely is he not
Hit man, with ice in his veins
Does a job so precise, they up the price with his name
Shadowy figure, never too lose with a lip
.44 long in his coat, deuce-deuce on his hip
Baby .9 in his boots and his trunk is full
This ****'s on some shit and can't be fucked with, fool
In the grimey world of highly paid hustlers
First they get goons to muscle ya, then get him to touch ya
You wouldn't wanna get in his way, nor his associates
Or a tombstone bearing your name will be appropriate
[Verse 4]
You got the bag, Pop? I got the the thing-thing
It's in the sling, here it is, let me let it ring
With the du-du-du-du-du-du-du
Or do it lawnmower style (Rrrt)
You got the bag, Pop? I got the the thing-thing
It's in the sling, here it is, let me let it ring
I got potatoes in the mufflers and the whole thing
With the
