Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes it feels like
The world spin opposite of the way you spin
Sometimes you just gotta create your own
World
[Verse 2]
I been on a mission, man
I been on a mission lately
(I been, I been)
In some sticky situations, I just grindin' down to medicate
I ain't never been to prison, man
Still know what it is to break free (No, no, no)
Now I live my vision plan, no need to hallucinate
These **** be slippin', man
I think they gon' make me angry
If they woulda listened, I coulda kept my cool today
Evil got me trippin', man
I don't think that you can say (No, no, no)
You in my position, man
You just couldn't hit the brakes
[Verse 3]
I can't believe it, word on the street's
One of my soldiers talkin' to one of them alphabet boys
My first reaction is to find out who, where, and why?
Put the word out and bring him to me now, but keep him alive
Put some bread on his head and make sure he arrive
'Cause this is somethin' I ain't toleratin'
Plus, I'm gettin' impatient
I'm fiending to break him, for real, boy, I'm salivating
My phone rung, it's after ten o'clock sharp
They said they had him in one of my warehouses by the dock
Jumped in the Benz with a ill look, no grin
With a steel hook, I'ma 'bout to do this coward in
When I got there, indeed, he was already tied up
Pillow case on his head and the blood stains dried up
The moment I've been waitin' for is finally here
I get to see who done betrayed me
Snatched the pillowcase off his wig and told him
"Yeah, now it's time to face me"
Who I seen? My little niece boyfriend, I seen
He beggin' not to kill him, I told him I gotta
As I poured the gasoline, I thought about my little niece
I know she love him, but he a snail
He tried to put Shallah up in jail
Take me from my wife and kids
Why should I spare this maggot life to live?
Man, it is what it is, he chose to play this game
I lit the match and watch his frame go up in flames
[Verse 4]
Get emotion, we in motion
The commotion, I can feel
How we roll on, keep it goin'
Let it go, I'll take the wheel
So, open your eyes, I'm amazed, I know
So, open your eyes to the things I know
We rode it for life, put the game on me
If we don't get it right, put the blame on me
[Verse 5]
Guess again
Thought that you could pull the wool over a veteran
I would pull the trigger
But I'm thinkin' that it's better I, better I
Burn you like a sinner, let me
Share the light, share the light
Yeah, gasoline, pour it in my tank, now it's absorbin' in your skin
Man, this fool is dimmer
And I wish he had a better mind, better mind
Where you talkin' now, you were regrettin' mine, get it right
I been cuttin' loose ends, why your lips so loose talkin'?
I could fuck with new friends too
Gotta get it with that new star gaze
I can be a nuisance
But not if you use caution
Been committin' new sins, true
It's time we write some new commandments
