DMX
Walk With Me
[Skit: DMX]
Sometimes I will take my brother by the arm
Other times I will take my brother by the shoulder
Then there are times I will take my brother by the neck
Any way I touch you, walk with me

[Intro: DMX]
Uh
Uh
Uh
Grr
This ain't the way it's supposed to be (BS)
This ain't the way it's supposed to be (Off that bloodline thing)
This ain't the way it's supposed to be
This ain't the way shit is supposed to be

[Verse 1: Big Stan & DMX]
Now I done seen the streets turned into a beast with sharp teeth
Put claws in the strong and just devour the weak
Make them proud n***as humble (Uh-huh)
Then turn around and make them loud n***as mumble (Uh-huh)
In the jungle, I done seen n***as voted most likely to win
Lose it all at the end of a stem, what a lame (Uh)
Friends killing friends for paper, what a shame (Uh)
And everybody thinkin they players, what a game (Damn)
I done seen this whole shit change
Looked again and realized that ain't shit changed (What?)
Except the fact that I'm a grown man now (Uh), standin' on my own two (Uh)
Used to hate guns, now a n***a own two (Come on)
Twin Glocks for cops and use, I promise to
I ain't goin out like Amadou, you know what I'ma do (Alright?)
So sit back and try to visualize if you can
All the stories of a wise man
Walk with me
[Chorus: DMX]
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This it it, come on, come on)
Look at my life, look at how I live (Uh)
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This is it, my n***a)

[Verse 2: Big Stan & DMX]
Now, I done seen life play jokes with death as a punchline
In a world with no hope, struggled to get mine
I was raised in a time of regret and bad news (Uh-huh)
So I was taught my values by bad dudes (Uh)
Hustlers and killers, they taught me wrong from right
Told me everything that's wrong is right
Like hoppin' the train (Uh), poppin' the thing (Uh, uh, uh)
And havin' hot blocks poppin' with 'caine, lockin' the game (Come on)
And the more shit change, the more it's the same
And the more you try to get rid of it, the more it remains
You remember when the kids' dream to get to the top (Yeah)
Was being doctors, firemen, even the cops? (Uh)
Look at the kids now, lost, no hope
To get ahead, they plan to rap, play ball, or sell dope (Woo)
And if you thinkin' we the problem, you wrong
Our generation died at the same time our fathers was born, come on

[Chorus: DMX]
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This it it)
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This is it, my n***a)
[Verse 3: Big Stan & DMX]
I've seen a broken home influence a good kid to go bad (Uh)
Cause boys with sane minds to go mad (Uh)
And young girls to lose they innocence so fast
And so often the results are so sad (Uh, uh, uh)
Losin' her skirt, don't even know what flirt means
So a baby's poppin' up with a baby at thirteen (Damn)
A few years, she tried to settle down with her man
Tried to stop fuckin' all them other n***as and can't
Though she want to, the curse got her doing this dirt
'Cause she saw mommy do it whenever daddy went to work (Damn)
And it hurts, I know the pain, call it the truth
Bad parents are destroyin' the youth, I've been there (What?)
I watched men beat on my mother my whole life
So when I hit my baby mother, I thought it was alright (No)
Maybe if I woke up and them n***as was gone
Would've knew that all the hittin' was wrong, talk to me

[Chorus: DMX]
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This it it)
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This is it)
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This it it)
Look at my life, look at how I live
Look at what I go through, so what I've got to give (This is it)
[Outro: DMX]
My n***as
This is for my n***as
This is for my n***as
This is for my n***as
This (Right here) is for my n***as
BS, baby
Uh-huh, uh
Bloodline, bloodline (Bloodline)
All my dogs off the motherfuckin' chain
Arf, arf, arf (You heard?), arf, arf-arf
Bitch-ass n***a (Bitch-ass n***a)
Iceberg
Ho, BK (Man, they don't hear me, though)
