[Meeno] 
They got my back to the wall 
Nobody to turn to, nobody I can trust 
I used to have friends 
But all I could think about was hustlin 
That was then, this is now 
And this is how I must be 
A loose cannon, with a cannon 
Nobody can trust me 
When half the world is sayin "F*ck Me" 
The other half will fear me 
Shit both halves will make one whole 
But nothing can dare those cowards to come near me 
Yeah they hear me, but f*ck that 
I want them cats to feel me 
'cause to feel me, is to know I'll be a problem till they kill me 
It's from sun-up to sun-down 
Got my gun up, and I'ma run down 
On any ass coward that feelin that I can't get down 
I'm a nightmare, the nigga that's always right there 
Borderline, with two lines, a little too heavy to fight fair 
Unload, reload, cock back, and pop that 
And drag to where your top at 
And guaranteed that I dropped that 
You can't top that 
I'm here to put them rumors to rest 
F*ck the past 
F*ck the present 
I'm the future in the flesh 

[Chorus x2] 
I'm the chrome before the storm 
I'm the buzz before the storm 
I'm the screech before the crash 
I'm the click before the blast 
I'm the rise before the fall 
I'm the loss before the gain 
Vacant Lot will keep it hot 
'cause we the future of this game 

[Big Stan] 
Coke game to sober 
We takin rap over 
Either roll with us or you gettin rolled over 
But pardon, niggaz is too hard for your squadron 
Evacuate the buildin, save all the women and children 
No way around it, niggaz comin in thousands 
M17s, grenades, and four-pounders 
All you grimmy niggaz get the f*ck from round us 
y'all the same cock-housers from the blocks to gouchers 
Celebratin is the the feelin when I catch a fake vilian 
Send him brick style in the ceilin of an abandonded building 
Feel me? y'all got to, I'm the voice of theory 
My advice? keep rappin you ain't no where near me 
Spillin blood for the dead, God bless them dearly 
And look straight to the heavens so I know that He hear me 
My shit fluxuate from the drop seven, to the wide bodied eight 
Up on in corner, with the sweeper I let the body gate 

[Chorus x2] 
[DMX] 
When I do niggaz, it's how I do niggaz 
And two niggaz got nothin for me 
When they saw me looked the other way and tried to ignore me 
I put holes, like foot holes, in niggaz buttholes 
Stomp a mudhole, when I cut hoes, the fuckin blood flows 
That was bustin niggaz wide, I was 10 when I died 
Now I'm walkin dead with the infared by my side 
Keepin niggaz in line like a parade 
Then they scatter like roaches when they get sprayed with Raid 
Like a grenade, playin with spades is the plan 
Now what part of suck my dick don't you understand? 
Better act like you know or get smacked like your hoe 
When you straped, toe to toe, but can't strap with the flow 
And I gets down for mine, with the crime 
And if I gots to do time, f*ck it 
I don't mind 
I handle my business and I shoot snitches 
'cause I know nowadays niggaz is more ass than loose bitches 
It's all good, I'm still out 
Knock on wood, robbin niggaz like my last name is Hood 
'cause I could, go with that mob that goes out to rob 
That mad scheme to get cream without the job 
I house more niggaz than a shelter 
And if a nigga ever felt a, heltah skeltah 
It'd would melt away, 'cause the pain is too much to bear 
Let the dead be dark while the Dark is here 

[Chorus till fade]
