[Hook]
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
You better watch your back

[Verse 1]
These boys better get back 'fore I gеt my gat
Go click-clack, and my wrists snap back
Quick attack, there's no slack in my back
In the scеne, wearing all black
They acting like they know me, man, who are you?
They call me Viper, but these boys knew
Who I was before they stepped up to me
And they'll know even better when they're in a deep sleep
Cause I'm not one to mess with, I ride or die
I do it for the southwest, as my ride glides
They jealous they can't move like me
That's why they're living so desperately
As I'm cruising through H-town
Bumping Screw in the 'lac, and I'm never ever going down
Cause I'm a G eternally
So I do it for the streets before they murder me
[Hook]
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
You better watch your back

[Verse 2]
As I'm running through Fifth Ward
The crowd's cheering for me, like I won an award
These streets I was raised on, so don't step up
Cause if you're messing with Viper, you won't ever get up
Just a southwest Hiram Clarke hustler
If you ain't from around here, then bet I don't trust ya
And when these busters mess with the blood
They gone be laying in the mud
Flippin work like it's pancakes
Not enough real G's, too many fakes
Haters popping up like toast in a toaster
Keep your clique close but keep your enemies closer
I can't imagine how these busters are living
When they ain't got my style and they ain't got my vision
This the Southwest Hooligan, they know who it be
And you know what? I'm a straight up G
[Hook]
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
Haters best not test, cause they know that I'm the best
We riding for the southwest, for the southwest
You better watch your back
