Dear god, I'm gonna teach you in this prayer 
And I thank you for all the food you've given me 
And all the health and strength 
And may my family be held safely and strong 
As well as myself 
And I thank you for everything you've given me thus far, lord 
And I beg your forgivness 
For I sin everyday 
In your sons name, Christ Jesus 
Amen 

[Chorus: Ja Rule] 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 

[Ja Rule] 
Nigga look at what the streets have done to me man 
Hustlin and strugglin 
I deserve a better hand 
'cause I'm runnin these streets under they say 
Motherfuckers like you can't relate 
'cause you ain't all about the hustling all about the bustin 
All about the thuggin, baby 
Never let it go 
If you gotta die, lie, shake it wit a fo'-fo' 
Then do so, 'cause that's the life you chose 
Shoul've fallowed the cracks in the road 
You heart and your soul 
'cause if there's one thing I know 
Good niggaz come and they go 
Bitch niggaz actin like ho's, merely needed to get treated like one 
Hope you got yourself a gun niggaz 
'cause you know I cock and blow niggaz 
And if right silent the temp, get on some shit 
Go on out, six feet deep and slump niggaz 
'cause I'm a survivor like Destiny's Children 
To the day of my demise 
I'ma ask the lord why 

[Chorus: Ja Rule] 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 

[Ja Rule] 
Take a look at what this worlds done made me 
All I really want to do is be happy, and raise my family 
But I'm strong, motherfuckers can't break me down 
Niggaz really gonna hate me now 
As I'm givin a f*ck 
I'm tryna get my life together 
Shit a nigga can't ride forever 
Tryna see a hundred mil' or better 
Befo' I die 
Don't ask me why, I 
Got a fasination wit for freak ho's 
New whips wit two seats and two do's 
I've been waitin so long to explode 
Now watch me cock back and unload 
Bullets goin threw the chest and out the back 
Shit is usually how the babry acts 
Now the look in your face is so relaxed 
Now your family moans and deals wit that 
But me, I'm a survivor like Destiny's Children 
Til the day of my demise 
I'm gonna ask the lord why 

[Chorus: Ja Rule] 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 

[Ja Rule] 
They all want me...Dead 
Why the f*ck would they want to see me live? 
So I'm gearin up to get into some shit 
Niggaz better kiss the wife and kids 
It's just the way us niggaz live 
And I run wit real niggaz that run wit big guns 
That are designed to pop ya lid (Shit) 
Never met a real nigga I didn't like 
Never met a bitch nigga that I didn't fight 
Now niggaz gon get down, and a nigga gon lay down 
Dependin on how niggaz view life 
And you'll never look in my eyes 
And you'll never, ever smile 
'cause your high, is comin down 
And you can't touch me 
But if you really want to f*ck wit me 
c'mon and get your heat my niggaz 
Don't you ever prevoke my niggaz 
Don't ever doubt this nigga 
'cause I'm a survivor like Destiny's Child 
Til the day of my demise 
I'm gonna ask the lord why 

[Chorus: Ja Rule] 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 
They all want me dead or alive 
But they'll never take me alive 
I'll get even before I die 
'cause this world wants me...Dead or alive 
[Repeat once]
