[00:59.83]My lifestyle was so far from well
[01:01.96]Coulda wrote a book with a title "Age 12 and Goin through Hell"
[01:05.32]Then I realized the plan
[01:07.19]I'm trapped in a deadly video game with just one man
[01:10.43]So I don't only watch my back I watch my front
[01:13.62]Cause it's the niggaz who front they be pullin stunts
[01:16.36]Back on the Ave of Lavonia and Bristol with a pistol

[01:34.83]Tryin to solve the puzzles to why is life so hard
[01:38.02]Then as soon as they reached the playground blaow
[01:40.70]Shots ring off and now one of them lay down
[01:43.51]It's so hard to escape the gunfire
[01:46.01]I wish I could rule it out like an umpire
[01:48.69]But it's an everlasting game and it never cease to exist
[01:52.06]Only the players change so
[01:53.99]Chorus 3X

[02:09.53]Outro: (LP version only)
[02:21.45]*old man*
[04:10.05]Your tech nique is mag-ni-ficent
[04:21.65]When cut across the neck
[04:24.46]A sound like wailing winter winds is heard they say
[04:32.26]I'd always hoped to cut someone like that someday
[04:37.32]To hear that sound
[04:41.74]But to have it happen to my own neck is ridiculous
[04:48.74]*man gasps for air*
