Niggaz tryna get me; man gimme my heat!
Put one under my pillow! - One under my seat!
Niggaz lookin' at me like I'm somethin' to eat! {50CENT! }
[Verse 1:]
We thought the coke and the dope'll help us escape poverty
When that didn't work we resorted to armed robbery.
Yeah, I done it but I ain't the one they say did it
Before my first verse my Benz had been kitted!
I'm so hood! - That's what the bitches like about me!
She bob and weave she up and down she suck the life up out me. [scream]
