[Verse 3: Project Pat]

Backstabber spittin' venom mane like a serpent

Lurkin' right up in your face, then explerging

Your be in this be a witness, hold your case dog

Not for your behalf, but the state, man I hate y'all

Suckers, got the game twist if you cross us

Rung one dog I ain't taking no losses

Ghetto mentality get you walking

Out on bond son, let that thang do the talking

For me, I'mma show you how the pain feel

Thought you was a friend, but the time did reveal

True colors over something that I thought was down

Project Pat, Southside M-town

Down with the conflict, and it's crucial

To all you haters, our feelings are mutual

He's in my range and I know what to do now

The last sound that he heard, boo yeah

Boo yeah, did you really wanna go there

Stuck a knife in the back of a real playa

Suffering penalties from my enemies

Black mane found dead, it's a casualty

He made me hate, 'cause he brought me hate

So I had to serve death on a trick plate

Two wrongs really don't make a right though

Sad songs what they sang at the funeral

Here we go my friend, should've known my friend

Had to meet your end, 'bout to call my friend

All homies in the hood don't be real

Some of y'all in the hood fake the deal

I feel things happen for a reason

Why do some of y'all change like a season?

It's Project hoe [?]

For a backstabber, dawg, ain't no love


[Chorus]

Smiling in your face

Whole time they wanna take your place

Them back stabbers

Back stabbers

Smiling in your face

Whole time they wanna take your place

Them back stabbers

Back stabbers
