MCs into a warpath genocide.
Nobody move, nobody get hurt. It's a homocide
So jump jump punks ready to get stuck.
Evil Kenevil was my man, someone for the stunts.

'Live off the streets' says the brother with the machete.
'Live off the lady' says the brother with the glock in patrol.

Does you hit her just to get her integrate another sister?
Mister. I asked him for a hanky. He asked if he could spank me.
So why'd you disrespect me, sir?
Were you thinking I'm misguided or were you tryin to hide it
That you had no father figure.
Which? Check out your wackness. It won't distrust my blackness.
I wonder for a smack, but don't think that it would help this.
What's the matter with the black man (Black man)

'Cause I trappin' a back like a cool six pack now bring it back. Woah!
United we stand, divided we crumble.

But the real gunman him not play Hollywood role.
Because he pull out his gun and send another boy down.

Oh, er, every time we come, we come correct, see.
