Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's going down, y'all
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
You know the deal
Worst come to worst my peoples come first
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
[Verse 2]
Some people got good friends
At night I live my life right
Intense, on the edge
On the wild
[Verse 3]
I'm from the group where friction leads to fire
Stack your bricks, the time is take your pick
Do or don't, the track Alchemist
My life is good, I got my peeps in the mix, so
[Verse 4]
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
I got worldwide family all over the Earth
And I worry bout 'em all for whatever it's worth
From the birth to the hearse, the streets, the guns burst
Words I disperse are here to free minds
And if mine are needy I need to feed mine
[Verse 5]
When worst come to worst
Set up shop and write a verse
Actually that's best come to best
My lyrics take care of me, they therapy
Get shit off my chest
[Verse 6]
Extra stress, three, four over the score
Different patterns of rhymin' prepare me for war
So next time you see us we'll be deadly on tour
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
[Verse 7]
Word up, if worst comes to worst, I make whole crews disperse
You know it's family first
Gifted Unlimited with Dilated Peoples
Babu, Evidence, Iriscience
And a shout out to my man Alchemist on the trizzack
[Verse 8]
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
I'm a glutton for the truth, even though truth hurts
I've studied with my peoples on streets and in church
We make it hard when we go on first
Long road, honor of the samurai code
These California streets ain't paved with gold
[Verse 9]
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
I got them back, at the end of the day
We could go our seperate ways but the songs remains
It won't change
Got my target locked at range
I might switch gears but first I switch lanes
Without my people I got nothing to gain, that's why
[Verse 10]
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
Special victims unit, catalyst for movement
Creates to devastate, since '84 show improvement
Definitely Dilated Peoples comes first
Cross-training spar, we raise the bar
And we put it in your ear no matter who you are
[Verse 11]
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
Worst come to worst, my peoples come first
My peoples come first
[Verse 12]
My peoples come first
[Verse 13]
Oh, when you need me
Everybody down the road
Yeah
[Verse 14]
D, the I, the L, the A
Dilated, Dilated Peoples, Dilated, you're
Dilate the peoples
I roll with the fo' sho' logo, the open eye
Dilated
People, make some racket, eh
We got you dilatin', dilatin' dilatin'
Dilated Peoples, Evidence, Irescience, Babu, the world gets shot
