Intro: (*interpolation from "Pulp Fiction") The path of the righteous man is besect on all sides by the inequities of The selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed, who in the name of the Charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak thru the Valley of Darkness, for He is truly His brother's keeper. And I will strike down upon thee with Great vengeance and FURIOUS anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy My brother. And you will know my name is the lord when I strike my Vengeance upon thee [Makaveli] Let us pray my n***a, for we definitely have sinned Chorus: Keep your eyes on your money and the cops, n***a If you ever, figure, to be a bigger n***a Gots ta keep your eyes on your money and the cops, n***a If you ever, figure, to keep livin, n***a Verse 1: It's time for you to feel the real born ridahs Lowdown, Bustop and Flipside shotters Down for Johnny Clown cos they a** out-of-bounds Hit em up and lay em down Cos the sh** y'all be doin, we done already done The war y'all tryin ta win, we done already won We ain't on the same place or the same foot ]From jackin to rappin, it's Steve Mack and the crooks ]From the eastside of Wotts, West Coast of the border Where the real g**ners do them drive-by slaughters Off the lick and weed, c**aine mixed with speed Quick to pull a trigger, break ya down to your knees Motherf**ers k** for anything where I come from Sayin "f** tha police!" on them one-on-one's For me, I'm not a follower, I'm a leader I got this tailor-made, Paul bait Peter Chorus: (x2) Gots ta keep your eyes on your money and the cops, n***a If you ever, figure, to be a bigger n***a Gots ta keep your eyes on your money and the cops, n***a If you ever, figure, to keep livin, n***a Verse 2: This ain't the life I chose, to be a hoss Stressed out, and stranded on d**h Row But sooner or later, I knew it fall in our face And we don't give a f** about you n***as cos y'all hate us You're haters, like the Gators, we ain't bustin our heads Puttin it down on this gra**, yellin "f** the Feds!"

For when it's time for war I'll be kickin down your motherf**in front door Chorus (x4)
