[Verse 1: Tragedy]

If I could, I'd rewind back the hands of time

Foul shit, like when po' shot Porter with his 9

Like a child being blind to the ways of mankind

QB, the streets raised me, my whole state of mind

I just fall back, reminisce on this sometime

A lot of niggas pull snake moves, fuck it it's their loss

Write it, I live it, then place my pivot in my Air Force

Credit get felon, three strikes, fighting these jail wars

Niggas going up north, we runnin' in their whores

Inhale and exhale, a smoke and a swirl

Ol' heads shooting boy, gives ahead, sniff girl

Getting rocked on the block, you off point when you earl

When Shan and Marley Marl was touchin' the world tour

And I pulled a jux, that's how I got my first pair of Jordans

See I never chose this life, this life chose me

Ghetto apostle, soundtracks to the street


[Hook: Cormega]

Time to unify the belt

Time is money, utilize your wealth

Fate is something you decide yourself

Life is what you make it, you remind yourself

If you forget it, in the end you define yourself


[Verse 2: Cormega]

My name is spoken in places they weighin' coke

And if actions speak louder than words, how the fuck do you explain these vocals

My fate is chosen in unison when my baby growin'

Not facin' numerous cases, them days are over

I shed enough tears to measure the rains of Noah

When they subside, its clear, I'm much wiser

Some rhyme of drug tide, but very few can match my residue

Or resume, Mega's the truth

A lot of hearts get tested when the feds come through

Niggas who did work start revealin' like forensic experts

Lyrically I'm humidity, you sweat in my verse

It's so dope you need a mass when you measure it, what Mega spit

My phlegm was sent to the lab for evidence, and deemed inadmissible

I never flip, I represent to thoroughest weather in the belly of [?]

When asked for a real nigga to stand, I'm who the ghetto sent


[Hook]


[Verse 3: Havoc]

Look at my eyes, you see the bloodshot

Years of givin' niggas the blood clot

Niggas snitchin', pointin' my mugshot

You see a fella's heart, 'specially when the gun pop

You be a man apart like Vin Diesel, this ain't a part

You cowards movie role, never let them [?] blow

You cowards faker than fools gold, the truth told

Nines on our dicks, we don't do those

Never had to, you lyin' 'bout little shit like that

Imagine real shit, shit that can get you clapped

Niggas takin' from you things that you can't get back

I'm talkin' 'bout your life on earth

To me, you niggas live as Smurfs, turn to blue when the gungle the work

I'm from a bloodline of felons, some hear the rest in heaven

It ain't a game, half of the clique is seven

Me and Mega come through like H2s

Get your camcorder ready, nigga it's breakin' news

Dog it's real
