Wu-Tang Clan - 8 Diagrams (2007) by Wu-Tang Clan (보컬) on maniadb.com

[Intro: kung fu sample from
"8 Diagram Pole Fighter"]
Today I'll talk about kindness
Justice, faith and kindness
I want you to listen carefully
Kindness and faith,
are the foundation
Without them,
we can't become good people
And with justice,
we know we can lead a good life
And how can I be a good man then, eh?
Well, first of all,
you have to practice honesty
Uhmm...
Keep your temper,
never lose control of yourself
Keep control...
Be patient, if you learn to do these things,
you can master anything

[Chorus: The Persuasions
"Gypsy Woman" sample]
Out of nowhere, there came a caravan
This was around a campfire light
A lovely woman in motion
Her hair was as dark as the night

[Method Man]
Cruising on the interstate,
just follow while I innovate
Too many try and imitate,
medallion like a dinner plate
Front and get ya dinner ate,
chinchilla for the winter, wait
I'm trying to bring the "Sexy Back" like Timbaland and Timberlake
Spitting like a calico,
kush from a Cali hoe
Tell that joker "tally ho",
put shots in that Denali, yo
RZA you know how we go,
on them 20's, that's how we roll
And I don't eat berries
but eat a Berry like Halle though
The game criminal, my, my chain figaro
My, my dames pigeon-toed,
I'm still the same nigga though
Uh, kid rock a fitted low,
still got a wicked flow
And I'm like Barry Bonds on anything
that RZA throw

[Ghostface Killah]
On anything that RZA throw,
Ironman's invisible
I left my chick for cheating on me,
now that bitch is miserable
Popping bottles,
painting hella Wallo's on my physical
We gon' have a ball,
might as well pick a testicle

Purple haze festivals,
smoke a nigga like a bowl
F**k a coma,
now the state you laying is a vegetable
You wanna see me?
Like you ain't checkable
You like a CD,
I burn you and I wrecked a few...

[Chorus]

[Interlude: kung fu sample (RZA)]
Only God, has lept into avenged mind
And can, distinguish good, from evil
Hahaha (Aiyo Cappa)

[Cappadonna]
We gotta get more cake together,
so we could branch out
Preserve land,
get a boat and a ranch house
Call me a dreamer,
but I hustle for real
You thought that I fell off
but now I'm attacking the field
All in Chicago, grinding, putting it down
Crush blocks of MC's,
I ain't playing around
Yo, you heard me on The Bassment,
giving it to 'em
Fake dudes hiding theyself,
but I could see through 'em
Diggler, what?
I'm trying to live and raise kids
While you throwing up ya sign,
I'm laying 'em down, kid
Plus, I'm back home now, doing my thing
Thirty dollars to Medina just to cop me a ring

[Chorus 2X]

[Outro: kung fu sample]
A good friend, holds his drink
Bad company makes bad wine!
Drinking among friends
Red wine means a good life
A few drinks bring comfort
Two drinks are enough
Money can't buy courage
Riches mean nothing to us
Brilliant, a display of genius

[Intro: movie sample (Raekwon)]
On the firing line... lock, one round load
Ready on the right? Ready on the left?
Ready on the firing line?
Watch for ya targets
(Yeah, yeah, yeah...) pay attention

[Raekwon]
Welcome to the fish fry where niggaz
get burnt to a crisp
Jump out the pot, "Yeah yo I got this"
Long armor, construction's on,
I'm pro-drama
Catch me in the wildest beefs,
I bring bombers
Bearded like Talibans, booted,
my black ninjas
'll come through, tuxedos on with the gold llamas
Priceless like emeralds,
check out the ski mask
King Tut's nephew gave it to me
for three bags
Of heron, Don Baron, sniff a bag of blow
Fifth out, runnin' up
in Saks with the ill army
Shake feds, play dead,
yo check out what Rae said
Lay on ya hands,
let the Branson break bread
High energy,
all my niggaz a kin to me
Regardless how it go down
I still get ten a ki
Beware of my enemies,
y'all remember me
Nikes with the low goose on
and I've been a beast
Wilding in my headphones,
red in my stones
Good ganja out,
if I die fill up my headstones
With water, dough,
acid and gold classics
All my niggaz who pump,
the spirit'll jump out and grab shit
Max with the laser on 'em,
staircase caskets (caskets)
Broke bugged thugs in the hallway maxing (maxing)

[Interlude: Inspectah Deck (movie sample)]
Still them 1-6-Ooh niggaz, straight up
(whoa, hold up, hold up)

[Inspectah Deck]
The nozzel aim, rip through ya
frame for pocket change
Fiend for the Rush Hour 4, then pop a vein
Thousand dollar corks pop,
pause or get off top
Used to be a general, just lost your spot
Animal House, two grand'll handle ya mouth
Beast mode with the G-Code,
cancel 'em out
Son, I've seen hell,
fell into the palms of Satan arms
Don that I am made 'em bow
in the face of God
Graveyard Shifting, different day,
the same thing
The name ring then the chain swing
and dames cling
Money green, Maury kicks,
whips and new fitteds
(It was all a dream) Advocated
by the few who do live it
Bloomberg, make a nigga cop the Mausberg
Shorty ain't a shorty,
he a Shooter like Wahlberg
Old man told me, don't be, blind to deception, only
Sharp with perfection, homey,
ya mind is a weapon

[Interlude: movie sample]
Relax, you got ya muscles tight, relax
Word... Word...

[Chorus: Method Man (U-God)]

First we told y'all niggaz,
then we showed y'all niggaz, huh?
(We gon' take it back with this)
By the time you get a show,
we've been all around the globe, huh?
(We gon' take it back with this)
Before you even had a name, you was screaming "Wu-Tang"
(We gon' take it back with this)
When we was running on the block,
you was under ya pops, remember
(We gon' take it back with this... let's go)

[Ghostface Killah]
Armored truck money, Shazam bangles,
play the throne like
Julius Caesar, gorilla mob,
slash, Killah's gaurd
Fake passports and visas,
all of my goons
They be carrying spoons,
because boom, he had a massive seizure
Hot chocolate lovers, guns is published
Detroit bitches out of town be dying to f**k us
This is real talk, shank lullabyes
Ben Franks, we like Jet Blue we stay hella high
Curl on the dumbell L, we can't even S-P-E-L-L MTV or TRL's
Supreme novelists, we rank superior,
guarding the post
Down low in the 'jects,
got it locked in ya area
Ain't tryin' to hurry up
We like rebel niggaz powdered up
wilding in the streets of Liberia
No matter the crime, I'm beating the case
If I'm a wrong, a chair hit a judge right in his face
Shitting shanks out, come to court dates
Mittens on shines with blood
Wally's that's the color of wine

[U-God]
Talk to me, my criminal mystique
Kick back the boards, six thousand a week
Pay homage, what the don beat,
you're a minor threat
I see ya sweat roll down ya cheek
And ya soft and sweet, ya talk is pork
Get murdered in New York when I enforce the heat
And the cost ain't cheap,
my advice is priceless
Bring back the life that ya
thought was lifeless
The Way of the Gun, son,
who the nicest?
S.K., no stungun, smooth devices
Time Crisis, I played the game, low lifers
In a brawl, ripped the phones out the walls in Riker's
Vipers in the infirmary rooms with slicers
Shiesters with hate in their blood might bite ya
F**k that bitch, ya wife don't write ya
Cancel her, buy another one just like her
Pipers in the bucket of ice taste righteous
Today's mathematics when we build in cyphers
The baby automatic kill like Air Force strikers
I'm still Asiatic when I spill the hypeness

[Interlude: movie sample]
The dark, and this place will come here
That's right!

[Chorus]

[Intro: Method Man]
If you got it, light it up [8X]

[Method Man]
Ain't no shook in 'em, Pyrex pots is hot,
fiends is cooking 'em
Little niggaz hugging the block, cops is booking 'em
Women hugging they purse
when they spot the crook in 'em
Back when little J got shot, pops was whooping 'em
Little noses dripping with snot, ock,
now look at 'em
The ghetto got a hook in 'em now, drugs,
stay pushing 'em
Used to throwing dirt in these blunts, now,
it's kush in 'em
Used to tell these chicks to shut up,
now, he's shooshing 'em
Get cash, get that ass, or put a foot in 'em
Iron Flag, flag that cab, Bedford
and Put-e-nam
There ain't no puss in 'em, dick,
dildo, or gush in 'em
Niggaz still got that juks in 'em

[Chorus 2X: Ghostface Killah (Raekwon)]
If he front then we stomp 'em out
(Get 'em out ya way pa)
If he drunk and he run his mouth
(Get 'em out ya way pa)
If he front then we stomp 'em out
(Get 'em out ya way pa)
(Get 'em out ya way pa, move, move, move)

[U-God]
I'm seduced by the chrome,
it's a ruthless poem
It took a little time to get his juices going
Producers know him,
as the kid with the Iron Palm
Righteous hammer, examine the firearm
Approach or get fired on,
permanent chest scar
Empire Strikes Back,
check out the Death Star
Bless y'all, wet y'all, do the impossible
Where I'm from, we use dum-dums in the arsenal
Highly sparkable,
get stretched off the knuckle check
Known to scuffle, I take it to the upper deck
Universal conquest, kung fu, buckle vets


In a dufflebag, max yo, a couple techs
Give 'em ear hustle, Wu brand,
we programmed
Next time we dance, it won't be a slow jam
I fear no man, son, you get lynched up
Nigga bitch, get Frankenstein stitched up

[Chorus]

[Masta Killa]
Yeah, voice skipping off percussion
Give it to 'em how they love it, slow flow, deadly, beloved
All praise, the daunting, calm yet
So alarming, without a word being spoken
A thought with no voice, just a nod and a look
The contract was took, straight cash,
off the books
A major pawn took a Don, look, he's armed
With a few black rooks from the heart of the Crook
Shook ones look while they hung him on Hercules hooks
They found his body near a shallow brook, escaped on foot
Switched the look up, out of state, he got the hook up
The flipped cake, thought lighter than the feather
Yet heavier than weight, when my mindstate starts to break, take cover
Over RZA instrumental, I'm damn near invincible, it's simple

[Chorus 2X]

[Outro: kung fu sample]
Tell me, what are they like?
They got holes in the top, five round holes
While I was watching, this stranger, hit them
But his fingers went right through the bone
So then, they've... mastered it
It's some style of kung fu, you know it?
The Skeleton Claw

Aiyo we came through thumping
like elephants
The new Range is super charged
I remains intelligent
Back to the formula lord
hard grammar This is God school
make sure the
lobby ain't jammed up
Excalibur swords T Rexes
bibles of rhymes
We in the lunchroom
weed and veggies for breakfast
Polo campus sicker lances
the crisp
Hundred dollar kick niggas
that be showing you hand steps
Back to the dormatory
where niggas Broke my forearm
and index finger
now you write glory
True holding my flag
it's all engraved in my blade
So when I wave it you gon'
say Rae mad Now
28 Days Later now Wu's up
do something you can't
It's blood in my eye
I might get amped
To rip something down
the billboard holders is back
So when you see me
you gon' say he gets down
From darkness to DNA
I move with my brother
And we resonate
energy that shifts in colors
Bringing MC's punishment
then I'm done with it
The meter leave
way on the fast break
I run with it
It was not a hobby
but a childhood passion
That had started in the lobby
and was quicky fashioned
Every line to line
bar for bar is clockwork
Hazardous and powerful enough
to have your block hurt
Check the total amount
of MC's inflicted With torture
from moving with work
that's restricted
We criticize producers
til they joints are right
Then acupuncture the track
with pinpoints of light
Hitting them from well conced
firing positions
With explosiveness
that'll make the deaf listen
Drastic pyroclastic
connected with the same old
Down the dangerous slopes of an
active volcano
Bill like the Green Bay Packers
sack like the linebackers
Hang with niggas
like redneck crackers
Strangle cold bottles of Beck's
like a vexed German
Duck low behind the car
my tech burning
Neck burning
from eight karats of sunlight
Absorbed
in the grill Big Pun like
Lord of the Wu Tang sword
know what that means
Like J R Tolkien
it's the Lord of the Rings
This is my man Chef auto
like Grand Theft Auto
The 18th letter followed
by the mark of Zorro
Plus A not for apple
but I pack an apple
Shorty try to buck back
and knock me off the saddle
Caramel pecan sundae Pregline
Plump breasts
was filled with saline
Her big booty cousin
nasty Nadine
Get you on the floor
whore tried to double team
Is he still that nucca
Is he in the hood like that
Is he really strapped
Will he really split yo' shit
I thought you said he rap
Pull up in the yard ten sets
He ain't flexing
microphone ripping
heat holding
Who testing
Rope a dope his black lotus
Can't quote this
chat with the sword tongue
Duck when the axe is swinging
wild Apache drum
Crazy Horse kicking
his thoughts
he won't quit
Can't tell em nothing he grown
give the man room
Space was demanded
beat banging through the speaker
Voice heat seek missle
guided at the listener
Swing to the gospel
catch up and wet at the brothel
Unstoppable
direction of my flow optional
To the ear
depending on the current of air
the crowd's in

[Sample]
The heart is the general,
the eyes are the scouts
the fists are the arrows,
the body is the bow
All movements have to be....

[RZA]
I'm the 7 in the center of the sun,
I keep shinin
My inner light would turn
my baby's tear drop to small diamonds
That be twinklin, while my love be sprinklin
We stay young while your old wicked faces be wrinklin
ALLAH's the most gracious,
he made the universe the most spacious
Seen and heard in all places,
but still appear faceless
Embraces all races,
all caste and all cases
In every spec of life
he's the substance of all traces

[Break]

The answer to all questions,
the spark of all suggestions
Of righteousness,
the pathway to the road of perfection
Who gives you all and never ask more
of you
The faithful companion
that fights every war with you
Before the mortal view of the prehistorical, historical
He's the all and all,
you searchin for the oracle
A mission impossible,
purely philosophical
But you call him on your death bed
when you layin in the hospital

[Break]

And as you play all day like the grasshopper who work and toil
Like armies of ants carrying stones of soil
Building a home for themselves
and storing food


At night we praise ALLAH
and adore the moon
In sync like the flow of the Nile,
the growth of a child
Only fearin' GOD,
we great a ghost with a smile
That which is spirit is spirit,
which is flesh is flesh
Meaning life has no partnership
with death

[Break]

Yo, I've been highly misunderstood
by those who met us
They had ears of corn
and heads of lettuce
Mentally dead,
essentially lead by the false teachings
And eventually pledge their allegiance
To that which was against them
and exempt them from the truth
Then juiced them and pimp them ??
So the church can rise,
while their babies home hungry
covered with flies
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Trying to harness the wind
ALLAH's the father from without and within
On Christ return, who will announce him?
Every tree is numbered,
but who can count them?
The name of all things on this world,
who can pronounce them?
ALLAH is the father of all,
why do you doubt him?

[Sample]

The heart is the general,
the eyes are the scouts
the fists are the arrow, the body is the bow
All movements have to be ??
The wrist must be strong and the fingers powerful
Fast, high kicks, a good firm stance
Avoid the enemy's strong points

[Intro: Raekwon (samples)]
(Make me yours) He get out of line, break his f**king arm...
You know how it go (What am I supposed to say? Yeeaaah)
You know, word up, not playing the games, with these niggaz, man
(Somebody tell me what do I do...)
None at all, man... hit 'em off, none of that, man

[Raekwon]
Aiyo, jump out the Acura, crazy heavy, what's popping?
Us locking the game, word to every hand on the lockmen
Street gwop, everybody eats, sweep blocks
This is a message, ain't go no grams, we gon' beatbox
Study like lessons, niggaz in the game biting the grain
You knowing where it came from, stop it
You thought we wasn't coming? You dumbing, you blunted again
Watch Lex get that dough out ya pocket, rhyme all 'pallegic
Can't nothing move when I rhyme, when I drop lines it's law out in Egypt
Love ups, don't need no batteries now, what?
The only niggaz that'll glow'll be us
Yo, throw me in Sin City, leave me with the vultures and bats
Then give me two weeks to bubble like Kim titties
Dirt Dog, we miss you, now it's time to murder the game
Cuz if things change, you know it ain't against Wu

[Chorus 1.5X: sample]
What am I supposed to say? Yeeaaah
Somebody tell me what do I do...

[GZA]
We keep it hot, keep the heat on the block
We never stop, drawing water up until it begin to drop
Raining with the patchwork of puzzles
That was written in the year of the dragon
More raw than you could ever imagine
How much of a great blessing to a rap city
Where the youth is organically fed, from the Witty
Unpredictable, Talent And Natural Game is lyrical
Analyze the picture, the portrait, the visual
A Cuban Link Chef cooks spaghetti that's untied
RAGU nigga whose tomatoes are sundried
He gave y'all niggaz whiplash from bling bling
But my rhyme'll give ya hot flash and moodswings
Math shed light on divine secrets, then science leaked it
For the lower level creatures that can't peep it
I observe MC's, regardless
From a neighboring world which is ten times the sharpness...

[Chorus]

[Masta Killa]
Let the track wind and ya mind flow free
Remain conscious on this ride to ya best ability
Infinity, back to the source of which it came

Energy, see it change forms, atoms being born, never ending
On and on and on and, travel with me
Not trying to convince the pack, that it's a fact
For those who can't adapt, I lived it, shitted it back
We have agreed, you'll feel the impact of the truth when I'll squeeze
The brain feels something pop, hip hop, locked in texts
Fat checks, fly whips, jewelry, chicks
Enough kicks, fitted crown, buttoned down
Underneath the white T lies the four pound
This is forty-five minutes of menacing
Dismantling, any MC opponent stepping in the zone
Get ya face blown (Get ya face blown)

[Chorus]

[Inspectah Deck]
Observe the word, when I speak, get the truth's heard
True to the curb, Wu classic is the new birth
Spreading the blessing across seven continents
Arm of the trench, there's no form of defense
Entertainment, nine swords swing rapid
Check the techniques, first bow to The Abbott
Witty Unpredictable, gritty individual
Valid, if it's Actual, Talent and it's Natural
Game, rugged like the train, pump it in ya vein
I and I ride or die under the name
W-U, the primary, ya secondary
Definitely not necessary, the legendary
You printed the blueprints to do this shit
Moving the youth in the bricks
Spit poison tipped darts that rip hearts
Through the chest, when I manifest my sick art

[Method Man]
Speaking my mind, fall in line when I spit mine
Still in my prime, still'll shine til it quit time
If this is a crime, find me guilty, I'm so sublime
So rapid with rhymes, same slacking is assonine
Revealing the truth, catching feelings, it's still the Wu
Gorilla the booth, body armored, them killa proof
In living proof, I'm the Wittiest Unpredictable
Most Talented rap muthaf**ker you ever listened to

[Cappadonna]
I'm a hustler, I grind til my pack is done
Give a seed, mad knowledge til they cracked and run
Can't nobody f**k with me, I'm just too nice
Smack niggas in they head everytime I write
Yo, I'm straight from Park Hill where the guns is popping
Where them little black kids do they grocery shopping
Go to school f**ked up, it's Africa Island
We poor in the bricks but inside it's nothing but talent

[kung fu sample]
If only we can lay our hands on that vixen Yu Shin Hua
Then all our problems will be over...
Yu Shin Hua!
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed

[RZA]
The quintessence, father of the hip hop renaissance
My slang been around before baton and Benetton
I've been on, fingerprint, two finger tips
So when I squeeze the rubber grip, release the clip, then leave the clip
C-Cypher Pigs can't identify it
The true and living God, son, we exemplify it
The most complicated 'formance of life, we simplify it
Bzzz, don't knock it til you try it
Flying dagger, make 'em stagger, then I take a swagger
Ice cold J?germeister, take a dragon hold
Bo county crook, slide like the Nike swoosh
Bruce Almighty got more problems than Spidey, look
Old Brooklyn, Putnam Avenue crook, I've been tooken
All around the world, rooked it then, drive back in Brooklyn
Good looking, son, yo, son, bring the hook in
You can never find Zig weak spot, stop looking

[kung fu sample]
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed

[Raekwon]
From the continents to Croatia, I'll flame a lamester
With the new slang, much more to show ya
These rocks change, glock fully, hot pellets
Have me running through the hall, it's on, like you being chased by the relic
Can't nothing harm me, yo, I move through any project
With logic, few semi's, hide in the cockpit
Scream out, Shallah and I'mma tap in, harder than Tinactin
Don't try to play the fella, I'll blacked in
Moving all miraculous, the slap smiths of the rap game
Say my name backwards, you'll get back changed
Black man, black hooded, moving through the city
Like you Batman, still you so pussy, like Catwoman
Don't bother the Legion, more squeezing, more reason
To light a new block up, cause me to cement shit

Powerful block shoppers and all niggas getting that gwop
Dare you to try to find my weak spot

[kung fu sample]
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed

[GZA]
I stay on the 64 squares, while patrolling the center
Trading space from material, the time zone, I enter
It's calculated by movement, from pushed pieces
Advancements and development, once the pawn reaches
To 8th ranked, now heavily armed with a tank
My opponent's base is threatend, soldiers cut with shanks
Moved all my small pieces, MC's are driven back
Unable to avoid capture from the attack
Such movement, is naturally quite unsound
Men is badly placed upon dangerous grounds
Loosening their position, before they were strongly posted
Before the double rooks had approached it
They must of been quick to ignore the principles
Rock a V and an effective God is invincible
A strategic plan, just the way I envisioned it
Many fallen soldiers in complete imprisonment

[kung fu sample]
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed
You thought you'd find my weak spot, but still, you failed

[Outro: Ol' Dirty Bastard]
I tell you, right, right, right, in ya muthaf**kin' face
Muthaf**ka, you know, well, you know muthaf**kin' well
When -- we don't play that shit, or, I don't play that shit
That's just Wu-Tang, you know, I'm the nigga
That -- that, give it to ya raw
When I said "first thing first, man, you f**king with the worst
I be sticking pins ya head, like a f**king nurse
I'll attack any nigga who slack in his mack
Come fully packed with the fat rugged stack
Shame on you, when you step through to
The Ol' Dirty Bastard straight from the Brooklyn Zu"

Peace to the God peace dog
Pull out a little liquor
Shame on a nigga
I heard the reapa' done came
to get'cha
So I done copped this fifth a
vodka and in ya honor
I grown this fetish for
loose ladies and baby mommas
Some say it's bad Karma what you do
Man it come back on ya
Music gotta support them crack corners
Now Imma swallow this
whole bottle for Ol' Dirty
Damn it hurts me
I hate it when brothers go early
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
Word to my son he gone remember you
Rubbin' on a statue in
his lab that resemble you
and what it meant to Wu
Us formin' like a family
you just blew
You was the chess piece on the board
that made us look true
Watchin' ya pen swish
you loved fryin' kingfish
You da pearl in the ocean
I'm up on the land pissed
Now you movin' more prestigious
Me Hittin' the streets
I know it's real
guess I slept with the black Jesus
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I became weak when I heard
that his body expired
It was hard for me to believe that
my brother retired
Suddenly the clock stopped
and the room started spinnin'
How can he walk off the field
durin' the first innin'
I cried like a baby on the
way to his pace of death
Hate not bein' there the minutes
before he left
Now I'm in the booth
10 feet from where he lay dead
I think about him on this song
and what he might have said
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
When I first heard the word I needed
air to clear my head
I know you didn't say
what I thought you said
my brother's dead you crazy
Another dirty prank to
get the family cranked
up niggas shouldn't play like that
I know how you feel god
but it's real
and I still can't believe
and my heart still grieves the loss
Ason Unique loved wine and
fine women
we singin' on tour ooo baby
we like it raw
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I popped a bottle on your dog
tried hard not to cry
I still can't hide the scars
And I still ask why to God
Alalyzin' ya form
as I stood ther beside ya moms
And I share the blame
cuz you was callin' for help kid
Shoulda coulda woulda had the time
I was selfish
I carry on your struggle
each day it really hurts me
I really miss you Russel
hope you forgive me Dirty
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
On the crash and put my fist through
Shout out to Dirty that the
whole world missed yo
Reach out and kissed you
in your coffin my heart races
I drop tears and watch my nigga fall
form greatness
It's all wasted
flushed down the drain and
Soon as the news hit me
I bust out with pain and
Rivers I cried my brother just dies
Imma see you my nigga
on the other side
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
Ah man how do I say goodbye
It's always the good ones
that have to die
It's hard to live without you
God I said no doubt you
when you said that the
passion of Christ was all about you
From the God mobile to
to Brownsville
Florida to Ohio to Portlan to
Park Hill
You interrupt the Grammy's said
Wu for the kids
Took four five shots
when they rushed in your crib
Crack ya ribs cops shot ya whip
You been chased by the pigs
on a four year bid
Crashed cars
still came out without a scar
They try to keep your
free spirit trapped in a jar
So you'll keep your mouth shut
And won't tell the world who's who
and what's what
and prolly go nuts
How we treat them hoes
How we treat them hoes
I'll go through life pretending
that time will change the ending
Mistakes behind me
cast shadows to remind me
