My life in exchange for yours, born hated as a thug
House full of babies cryin’ from a lack of gettin’ love
Ain’t nobody tell me shit, ’til I got a sack of drugs
Had the block sewn up, ’cause I learned to pack a gun
Do you feel me? World, do you hear me?
Catch a risin’ star, fuck the love, niggas fear me
Got these niggas runnin’ all wild from my double-R
When we ride, motherfuckers is sure to die
Boom once I enter the room, in the air
All you hear is the whispers of doom, niggas scared
They don’t wanna see me head on
Think of all the busters that I had to leave dead and gone
Call a gravedigger, fuckin’ with a made nigga
M.O.B, gunfire, gettin’ sprayed quicker
Fuck ’em all, let ’em understand my plot to get richer
Much more than six figures, a motherfuckin’ made nigga
