This is dedicated to all those who don't see it coming

[Chorus: x2]
You can live true baby  you can live trife 
Whatever way you chose you got to leave your life 
Hey yo you're running out of time  and you bout to cross 
The finish line  the finish line 

And  yo! I can't afford to waste a second 
Stepping with my eyes on niggaz checking on my weapons 
Every millisecond, motherfuckers say they true to this 
But when they grab the microphone they shit sound like stupidness 
Haha, mad to pull another vicious scandal 
I know that you can't handle when I flip from other angles now 
Feel my hot wax, burning from my melting candles 
You can't take the heat, so you switch from boots to wearing sandals 
This is for example! Shit will make a nigga curse 
When worse comes to worse, you be the first to disperse now 
We don't believe your man was living like that 
Hoping to find that nigga see exactly where his heart was at 
It's a damn shame how Son know your style, know your name 
Watch how he pull your file, make you wish you never fucking came now!
Even the hardest motherfucker has his final day 
So kill that shit you talking, and be about your fucking way 

[Chorus: x2]

Yo, everyday I see you on the block smoking 
With a bunch of niggas scoping on how they can split you WIDE open 
You don't even know what's going on up in your circle 
Awful murder niggas itch to leave you black blue and purple 
Ah! Your man came to put you on and tried to make you bleed 
Hit you with some shit that left you flipping mad in disbelief 
You just can't believe that niggas that you smoke with is on it 
And the way they rass they really got to bust yo' shit! 
Thought your man was joking, paid no attention to the situation 
Got with your crew and just continued smoking 
Now your man sit and watch you panic 
In any other situation you'd be fronting like you gigantic 
I guess all that fronting is your main talent 
It's apparent, he can see right through you like you transparent 
Haha, hey yo you need to watch your back you running out of time 
Watch your step, 'cause you only inches from the finish line 

[Chorus: x2]

Now, there's about a million motherfuckers on your trail 
Quick to bust your shit for every single time your words failed 
I'm watching all the moves you making f*ck the speculating
Super-bitch nigga you just be faking if I'm not mistaking 
Every move you fake you dig your grave a little deeper 
Come around me with that shit I'ma flip it to my brother's keeper 
Listen to this: overstress my emphasis 
I insist to fix and bring the noise as long as I exist 
Now you walk around the streets with all that shit you speak 
And step inside the club just to receive the illest ass beating 
Hoo! Take a look around you get no type of sympathy 
Impatiently, I sit and watch you die in your own iniquity 
Haha, now you out dead and stinking, and your eyes are no longer blinking 
Time caught up quick, with your little bitch way of thinking 
Ah, watch you diminish, while your niggas have to put a finish 
On your misleading false image 

[Chorus: x5]

Word is bond, bond is life 
You shall be willing to give your life 
Before your words shall fail 
All those who out there fronting, misleading they peoples 
Acting other than they really are 
It will catch up to you player, word is bond 
So that's, specifically, to all those fake motherfuckers 
Living out here on that bullshit 
Trying to act like they know what the f*ck's going on
