living in the city of the scandalous
shisty motherfuckers, can't even trust my own brothers
so who can i choose to trust, me, that's who
niggas want a piece of the pie, fuck off and die!
jealous, envious fools want to rush this
loco, trooping ass nigga with the cash, shit
motherfuckers just get your own, and leave mine alone
forty-five places to get done
send out your invitation
to the party of your elimination
i got peeps that play for keeps, (hardball)
now i'm laying your ass down to sleep
but every hustler wants to be bawling
but i got the balls for the shot calling
i pull strings, the don king, only in america
then i hustle, and flex my muscle

running game for eight years
--i know i'm getting tired of standing
on this corner
