A thousand-eight grams, enough to get yo ass right
Ya smart wit it, get caught wit it, enough to get yo ass life
From out here in these trenches ain't no FUCKIN love or second chance
Small-time offender, lose yo ass, you get enhanced
Speak not, keep yo mouth shut, investigate the whole place

The game ain't the same at all changed for the worst..
N***a got the less time cause he came wit it first
See I disperse to dope the most convicted felons - strictly G's
No more Glock shit - rock shit, strictly keys
I gets my paper, I was taught by older n***as
Cold blooded killas, dope dealers, soldier n***as
I'm alert (alert), I'm aware (aware), I'm focused, I'm on top of shit

Candy coated rock baller (ugh!), twenty-chop crawler (ugh!)
Bitches tryna steal my dick, I ain't bout to call her (ugh!)
Theres a lot of n***as rappin, playin games

Where the car at? (uh!) Where the bread at? (uh!)
Where the girl you say that got that "fire head" at? (uh!)
Where the rocks at? (uh) Where the Glocks at? (uh)
In yo mind and on the mic - the only place it's at!
That's my lifestyle you rappin bout
I'm havin everything you pussy n***as yappin 'bout
