(Chorus) x2
These days, you gotta be strapped
I'm already knowin ain't nobody got my back
these days you gotta be down
who said it was easy claiming Dogg Pound
I believe I got good skills
we been makin music since we were kids
thats all I wanna do, for life
keepin it real until the day I die
obstacles get in my way
continue to mash and dont forget to pray
I keep my hand on my steel
because I love my life and I always will
whatever people say to me
I take it in stride I'm thinkin negro please
if you really dont know me
then you best back up, I suggest strongly
they started this DPG
until the day I D-I-E
for my L-I-F and E
no matter where I look thats all I see
and I know...
(Chorus) x2
Many ****** cling to me
I think its because they see me on BET
cuz everybody knows my name
all the police think I'm serving cane
jealous ****** call us out
but I dont worry long as I hear their mouths
if ever they decide to kill
you better be prepared because I know I will
I think I can guarantee
you dont wanna be standin next to me
before my final curtain call
I forsake save hen and wont be long
so if we bump hits in the streets
or even at some party
you ****** really can't see me
my request is that you stop trying
before I let go...
Chorus x2
Daz-
Everyday, the 45 stays I'm jackin for whoever
I bustin takin now bowin down never
gotta watch my back for these coppers
as well as these ****** that I kick it with
they stick you faster than these *****es will
since I'm pimpin everybody wants my riches
and I can't keep the Don from buying **** actin everytime
I smoke constantly and can't flinch me
from commitin the murders so I chill and puff the herb
who gots my back nobody
little John Gotti's layin ****** down at the homey's party
all be goin crazy I guess we are bein who we are
really say the ***** gotta be a star
I gots to get mine and if I blast then its my destiny
if I die then it was meant to be intentionally
worry stressin I'm guessin no confession
when the murder take place set yourself protection
Chorus x4 to fade
