[Verse 1: Quelle Chris]
We don’t want it
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
Rappers apart you don’t own no
Learn to get love by giving love
Let that stick to your body like fish fries
N***as be wanna tear you from limb to limb
I’m just trying to come out on top like [?], fam
End up strung out like mandolins
Got people banking on me
I need to provide
Be damned if I go back to 9 to 5
If every day is a fight then I'll roll the dope
Brace the storm, my n***a hard to kill
Let it rain in the cup till it overflow
Runneth over and flood the block
Only average n***as okay with broke
Gonna roll out the carpet might as well make it red

[Chorus]
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive (alive)
[Verse 2: Fresh Daily]
I’m finally hip, I finally arrived
I’ma buy me a clip
For my family ties
I’m gonna write me a script, then light me a spliff
'Cause I’m calling it quits
On this 9 to 5
Bought a ticket to Cali, yo my n***as is ready
It’s the season finale
No more eating at Rally's
They scared of my rhymebook
Like it's haunted inside
But we don't want it dead
We want it alive
We more surprised when n***as immortalized
If they not dope, then call 'em a liar
Best 2 out of 3, I'm scorin' a 5
On any....corner I'm on, I'm slaughterin' rhymes
Call up the coroner, the morgue's full of foreigners
Who went to war with us
And were floored when they saw we were warriors
Now they family mournin' 'em, every mornin' I'm warnin' 'em
That we don't want 'em dead, we want 'em alive
Tell 'em behave, we ain't all for that shuck & that jive
Tuck in they chain, we ain't buyin that bucket of lies
From these jiggaboo n***as buggin' they eyes
[Chorus]
We don’t want it dead
We want 'em alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive

[Verse 3: Cavalier]
Master of the ceremony that’s black
Stiff full of bones, he felonious In the soul of a track
Dressed like them cats from Coney
Trophy, jacket, and patch
Tender onus [?]
Like the warriors back
Can't fake jacks dubious to my prodigy when it’s fact
The revolution was restored smoking
Smoke a doobie with paps
Let’s get it rolling
We gotta get paper or get a wrap
Short stacks is a little pony, [?] bigger than racks
So only throw me figures or land to marry my brides
Bury my hatchets, tan all my hides, smoke mary and vibe
See, we don’t want it dead, we want it alive
Titty-fed, free-running, naked uncovered eyes
Visionaire, so say Eagle High Chief
Buddha got the wide Don Cheadle eye
For bad guys and state troopers
Don’t be surprised, no bye-byes just maneuvers
I leave rhymes for those left behind in the jewelers
[Chorus]
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive
We don’t want it dead
We want it alive

[Outro]
Take little micro-hits that way you get high
And say something weird
