Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Uh, yeah, mmm

William H, ****

Holla, yeah, yo

[Verse 2]

That's why I squeeze first, ask questions last

That's how most of these so called gangstas pass

I squeeze first, ask questions last

'Cause when I pull up, always pop, that's why I'm living today

[Verse 3]

Yo, when I meet ya, I heat ya down

When I greet ya, meet ya with pound

Not the handshake, but the kind that make ya demand a wake

The kind that put land over your face

I pop ya, let doctors stitch ya

I-N-F-R-A will not miss ya

I move light like my shoes too tight

Leave **** confused from the day to the night

At night, see the light, when the pistols sparking

Daytime it gets dark when that pistol barking

I keep cash case cops arrest me

Case kids kidnap me, kids could get back me

You shall repent for you spend a red cent

If not you, somebody of close descent

Thou shalt not fuck with raw me or he

Face a thousand deaths from Mr. Shawn Corey

Carter, rap harder like I'm part of a cult

Like Cuban cigar maker 'cept I'm hard to smoke

And y'all choke, motherfuckers

[Verse 4]

That's why I squeeze first, ask questions last

That's how most of these so called gangstas pass

I squeeze first, ask questions last

'Cause when I pull up, always pop, that's why I'm living today

[Verse 5]

I said thou shalt not fuck with raw me or he

Face a thousand deaths from Mr. Shawn Corey

Carter, rap harder like I'm part of a cult

Like Cuban cigar maker 'cept I'm hard to smoke

Thou shalt not fuck with raw me or he

Face a thousand deaths from Mr. Shawn Corey

Carter, rap harder like I'm part of a cult

Like Cuban cigar maker 'cept I'm hard to smoke

And y'all choke, ****

[Verse 6]

That's why I squeeze first, ask questions last

That's how most of these so called gangstas pass

I squeeze first, ask questions last

'Cause when I pull up, always pop, that's why I'm living today

[Verse 7]

I said thou shalt not fuck with raw me or he

Face a thousand deaths from Mr. Shawn Corey

Carter, rap harder like I'm part of a cult

Like Cuban cigar maker 'cept I'm hard to smoke

Y'all choke ****

[Verse 8]

That's why I squeeze first, ask questions last

'Cause when I pull up, always pop, that's why I'm living today

[Verse 9]

See when I'm low in digits, I push blow in a blizzard

I'm a player for real, I post and pivot

Coke distribute, be where the ghosts visit

Where the demons live, shit my scene is vivid

Squeamish kids, y'all get the fuck out of this verse

It's about to get so obscene in a minute

I seen and live it, I did some things, I admit it

Wasn't proud of it, but I was a child, fuck it

Kept a pow tucked in a brown belt

Couldn't sit down, bug gun kept sticking my pelvis

Shit it was either that or be living with Elvis

**** is jealous, Hell is hot, you heard X

Wanted to tell God that I don't deserve this

Was afraid that he'd tell me I deserve less

My life was nervous, you haven't heard stress

Til you heard the cries of my mama, me giving her drama

Told her I ain't promised tomorrow, gotta live for today

And before she could say, Jay

[Verse 10]

I was out the door, pouch full of raw, a outlaw mentality

Men gotta do men things for men salary

Bad Boy, not Puff or Mike Lowery

Damn BIG woulda been proud of me

[Verse 11]

Ah, shit man...

Young Hova, ya heard?

Who could fuck with him?
