The Story-Dred Scott

I'm always talking s**t cause wherever I go I walk in s**t And now they got me on some stalking s**t Broad daylight niggaz is crying "But I don't want anyone to blast" So from the roof I pick em off like a scab And watch the slug bust a thug like a watermelon He shoulda thought about that before caught a terror And now another kid grows up without a daddy or a mommy Cause at the funeral I hit up the caddy, it's the army for real niggaz with nothing to lose Cause when it's time to go you don't get to choose I make the muthafuckin rules and I enforce it, shorty's people was loose hand so he lost it I took the joints and tossed them, in the river, at the same spot that I dumped This kid that didn't wanna give a n***a the combo, to the safe in the crib Look, money, that's why I did what I did {2 niggaz Talking...} [DMX] Mad stressed and I'm about to have a breakdown It's time for pops who got the store on the corner to have get a shakedown He hasn't paid for protection in like two months So I figured I'd leave him wit like two fronts I break up s**t to let him know that I'm real Reminder, I know where you live so don't squeal Told him, next time I come, Have some paper for me Don't f**k around and turn into another caper for me Cause though he's cool all that cool s**t stops And I be in the crowd talking bout, "Yo who killed pops?" It's a shame, he was caught up in the game and couldn't play it So I smoked him, I asked him "who's the man" and made him say it Three times, and that's how many times I hit him A n***a was acting like he didn't have to pay so I did him Yo I think this s**t is going to my head (for real) But let that be a lesson, don't pay dues and you dead {2 niggaz Talking...} [DMX] A little birdie told me that the feds were on to me And they wanted to do something real wrong to me So I broke out, Blazed the L for a while Checked my sources and found my name was on file Under gun for hire and extortion, but yo I never use The same joint twice as a precaution and I heard this kid tried to set me up He knew I knew so he tried to wet me up See he was under investigation for drugs They set up all types of phone taps and bugs Then when they bagged him, money went out, reprisent (he was my friend) Said they'd let him go, all he had to do was snitch And I know now he wish they would have kept him Cause it was sweet how I crept him, wet him up then left him And that's for mufuckas that don't know Go against the grain and you feel the pain Aight yo?
