I come from Bed-Stuy
Where niggas either do or they gon' die
Gotta keep the ratchet close by
Someone murdered, nobody seen, nobody heard it
Just another funeral service
Niggas will get at you, come through shinin', they yap you
In broad daylight kidnap you
Feds get clapped too
Police stay on us like tattoos
Niggas only grind 'cause we have to
Money is power, sling crack, weed and powder
Fiends come through every hour
It's all about that dollar and we no deal with cowards
Weak lamb get devoured by the lion
In the concrete jungle, the strong stand and rumble
The weak fold and crumble, it's the land of trouble

Better say quick who you close to
Don't come through if niggas don't know you

The life of a hustler, the life of a gambler
Dice games kill' mo' niggas than cancer
You know who you fuck with
Brooklyn don't run, we run shit
Roll up and just bumrush shit
We don't play that, out in BK, not at all
Four pound leave your face on the wall
