[Intro]

Sometimes it feels like

The world spin opposite of the way you spin

Sometimes you just gotta create your own

A world


[Verse 1: Allan Kingdom]

Ah, oh-oh

I been on a mission, man, I been on a mission

Lately (I been, I been)

In some sticky situations, I just grinder down to make it

(Roll it up, roll it up, roll it)

I've never been to prison, man, still know what it is

To break free, no, no, no (Yeah)

Now I live my vision plan, no need to hallucinate

(Ah-ah, nah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

These niggas been slipping, man, I think they gon' make me angry

If they would've listened I coulda kept my cool today

Evil got me tripping, man, I don't think that you can say

No, no, no

You're in my position, man, you just couldn't hit the brakes


[Verse 2: Raekwon]

I can't believe it, word on the streets one of my soldiers

Talking to them alphabet boys, my first reaction

Is to find out who, where, and why

Put the word out and bring 'em to me now, but keep him alive

Put some bread on his head and make sure he arrive

'Cause this is something I ain't tolerating, plus I'm getting impatient

I'm fiending to break him, for real, boy, I'm salivating

My phone rung, it's after ten o'clock sharp

They said they had 'em in one of my warehouses by the dock

Jumped in the Benz with a ill look, no grin

With a steel hook, I'm about to do this coward in

When I got there, indeed, he was already tied up

Pillow case on his head and the blood stains dried up

The moment I been waiting for is finally here

I get to see who done betrayed me, snatched the pillow case

Off his wig and told him, "Yeah, now it's time to face me"

Who I seen? My little niece boyfriend I seen

He begging me not to kill him, I told him I gotta

As I poured the gasoline, I thought about my little niece

I know she love him, but he a snail, he tried to put

Shallah up in jail, take me from my wife and kids

Why should I spare this maggot life to live?

Man, it is what it is, he chose to play this game

I lit the match and watched his frame go up in flames


[Bridge: Allan Kingdom]

Get emotion, we in motion

Make commotion, I can feel

How we roll on, keep it going

Let it go out, take the wheel

So open your eyes, I'm amazed, I know

So open your eyes to the things I know

We rode it for life, put the game on me

If we don't get it right, put the blame on me


[Verse 3: Allan Kingdom]

Guess again

Thought that you could pull the wool over a veteran

I would pull the trigger but I'm thinking that it's better I, better I

Burn you like a sinner, let me share the light, share the light (Yeah)

Gasoline, pour it in my tank, now it's absorbing in your skin

Man, this fool is dimmer

And I wish she had a better mind, better mind

Where you talking now, you were regretting mind, get it right

I been cutting loose ends, why your lips so loose talking?

I could fuck with new friends too

Gotta get it with that new star again

I could be a nuisance

But not if you use caution

Been committin' new sins, true

It's time we write some new commandments
