[Verse 1]
I remove [?] deception and snakes in the grass
Can't divide and conquer, I change my math
We from different schools of thought, I convey more class
We ain't come from the same cloth, I contain more fabric
Do or Die in me, I take all challenges (All challenges)
With confidence, they call Eric and prepare form
I don't fold the fear drama
A wolf in sheep clothes, I'm wearin' the Ill Lama (Ill Lama)
And there's a real problem, kill or be killed
Bet I live longer 'cause if your men wanna fuck 'em
They don't stare for nothin', no honor amongst these
Live for today, tomorrow they won't breathe (They won't breathe)
Ya woke these sleepin' bees, a body, ya whole team has no goals
Just broke schemes and limited coke dreams
Defer that close range and just show face (Show face)
[Chorus]
First you get the money, then you get the power (Power)
Respect must be earned to be honored (To be honored)
Remove weakness, strips acknowledged
In this life of ours is death before dishonor (Before dishonor)
First you get the money, then you get the power (Power)
Respect must be earned to be honored (To be honored)
Remove weakness, strips acknowledged
In this life of ours is death before dishonor (Before dishonor)
[Verse 2]
Many wanna eat but don't wanna sacrifice
I feed shells to any with destructive appetite
As I enjoy the food of my labor, youth of my babies (Youth of my babies)
Livin' life, you will not change this
Adversity chase me, we ain't built the same
My architecture is resilient in the harshest weather
I give it to you, I'm far from selfish
You hate me 'cause you ain't me, you are all my presence
I was born to get it, call it predestined
Money talks, no wonder you talk reckless, cold-hearted
Till I tore your chest with the scorchin' Desert
This is called learnin' a hard lesson, in reciprocation
Karma's nearin', even the Devil fears God's vengeance
Against the wicked that conspire ain't a hard decision
Was reached, holdin' court in the street all considered
By the people, here they carry out the sentence
[Chorus]
First you get the money (First you get the money), then you get the power (Then you get the power)
Respect must be earned to be honored (To be honored)
Remove weakness, strips acknowledged
In this life of ours is death before dishonor (Before dishonor)
First you get the money, then you get the power (Power)
Respect must be earned to be honored (To be honored)
Remove weakness, strips acknowledged
In this life of ours is death before dishonor (Before dishonor, dishonor...)
