[Intro: Illmac]

Yeah, I'm territorial, man

My city, my block, my people, my things, look

[Verse 1: Illmac]

Saint Johns my block has always shown love

Shouldn't be a wonder why I talk about it so much

They watched me grow up, they watched me get clowned

They watched me swole up, they watched me slim down

They know I'm no punk that fucks with the in-crowd

They watch me throw knucks, they know I get down

They watch me blow up, shit, they watch me spit now

While I don't know much, I know I did them proud

I get it tatted on my back, 'cause I back the city

That way everywhere I'm at always have it with me

I'm territorial, you know about my family history

And loyalty is just encoded in my natural instinct

So don't move unless we say

All regrets be saved 'til my flesh decay

Droppin' F.B.A., that's Family Before Anything

Cross that, don't expect leeway

[Hook: Illmac]

I'm territorial, my city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us

May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses

My city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened

And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses

[Verse 2: OnlyOne]

I won't work my life away for what a nine-to-five will pay

Honestly I can say that ain't the life of me

Night and day my life's insane

But despite the pain in my domain, I am King

I ride the beat like a train

I've seen brighter days, but life's a peach, why complain?

I'd rather go to County then sing

Territorial, even my cell in County is clean

I ain't a killer, man, picture a bounty on me

Warning shots, before you cross that boundary, think

'Cause that could cost the life of a man

When I draw the line in the sand, where right or wrong is a plan

If not the rifle to blam, I got the knife in my hand

If it's just bare fists I'll fight you off if I can

This my block, that's yo' street, rep it

My big guy Josh, that's my co-defendant

It's my work, they should hold me separate

But I'd rather die first than give the police leverage

I follow wherever my life's pointin' me

Defendin' my ground, that's my life's point to me

Illmaculate never conflicted with my loyalty

When in his absence, consider me vice royalty

[Hook: Illmac]

I'm territorial, my city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us

May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses

My city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened

And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses

[Verse 3: Illmac]

I'm of the rarest breed, they should never dare to speak

In my presence, their cups are full and they're scared to drink

I give 'em clarity

I choose my words like my friends: carefully

And back both with sincerity

Steppin' back from the mirror, I need air to breathe

You know what I mean, you know what I mean

Standin' there [?] twenty-fifth hour

Money clip out, in a drunken fit soured

Ain't nothin' left that kills you once it gets counted

I'm familiar with the feeling when your hustle gets doubted

Lately it just seems there's a bunch of shit poutin'

Certain people, when I see 'em, beat the fuckin' shit out 'em

Don't force me to lose control, 'cause truth be told

I treasure the lives of those close to me more than I do my own

So I swore that I'd put the chrome to your forehead prob'ly

Try to fuck with my fam? Over your dead body!

[Hook: Illmac]

I'm territorial, my city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us

May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses

My city, my street

My block, my people, my things

I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened

And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses
