We chapters of the same book, just a different page

**** in the struggle all out ta get paid

Doin' what we gotta do to avoid the raid

Before you get caged, but you can't avoid the grave

We chapters of the same book, just a different page

**** in the struggle all out ta get paid

Doin' what we gotta do to avoid the raid

Before you get caged, but you can't avoid the grave

When you live by the sword, you die by the sword

I'll probably die in the vocal booth spittin' out raw

Die on stage, rippin' down tours

Die from AIDS, trickin' out-a-town whores

Die cause I didn't have one in the pipe

Might go out like Raymond, went out on his bike

And die on a death mission, two tec's spittin'

No vest section from my chest missin'

Die cause the jewels in my necklace glisten

In a V twizzy in a reckless collision

Or die in the streets over somethin' petty

Cause a broke ass **** tried to say I assed bet 'em

Die from a shot from a cig or a glock

From a kid on the block while sittin' in the drop

Or die cause I was on, ain't see 'em comin'

Too late, eight shots got my body nummin'

Die for fuckin' his bitch in his bed

Die cause a **** thought I snitched to the feds

Die wit a knife six inches in my head

I could die on death row, sentenced to the chair

Or die cuase a **** pulled his Rosco out quicker

I was high off vodka, hydro, and malt liquor

Die cause I knew I shoulda laid that man

Die cause the cops tricked me ta say that man

Die cause I hesitated ta spray that man

Die cause I hesitated ta pay that man

Die cause my man passed me a empty tool

Die cause I panicked, I couldn't keep my cool

Die cause I mixed all them pills wit Hennessy

Or die cause them **** is jelly, envied me

Die tryin' ta steal the fate of my enemy

I could go out from a case of mistaken identity

Or die cause the door wasn't open, it was locked

Die cause the 4 was broken, it wouldn't cock

Die cause a **** wasn't focused on the block

Die cause them **** thought the coke was in the spot

Die cause another **** said I said somethin

Die cause that newsy bitch said I did somthin'

Die cause a **** was tryin' ta get a name

Or die cause it was just my time ta feel the flame

Might get sparked, might not feel no pain

Or might go out like dark-skinned Jermaine

Take a couple shots ta the heart, or ta the brain

Got all the dough, don't know the cost of the game

Young buck didn't wanna come off the chain

Couldn't handle the rock, got horsed in the game

I could catch a bad break like Big or Pac

I'd rather go out in the masjid makin' salat
