[Intro] One neighbourhood'll put their barrio on the wall and then, you know, we come in, write next to it or cross em out and they'll cross us back out. And then it gets into um, you know, maybe a fist fight and then maybe guys will get knifed behind it and then shooting and then someone dies. And you know they might wanna get back at us and if they do get back at us we might go down and k** two of em. Then they'll come back and maybe get one of us and we'll go back and get two or three more. It just goes on and on. It don't stop [Verse 1 - Ill Bill] Homie you can call me hot furnace Ill Bill AKA Nocturnus Walk up to you at point blank range and pop burners Walk away like nothing happened Walking while I'm clapping, laughing while I'm talking Awesome with the Magnum, spasm with the four-fifth, caution with the asthma The OG kush we smoke will send your lungs into a spasm Live fast and we die young, a bunch of live guns Get your mind flung through space and time When we rhyme run for the hills Iron Maiden, die in pain Have your entire society rioting Flipping over cars violently then fiery The double gun salute, a hundred guns asking, “Who the f** is you?” We the top tier, you could get your head popped here Stop there, we could earth you and nobody would care and that's deeper than an unborn In the womb of a prawn at the bottom of the Indian Ocean in the calm [Interlude] What's the worst thing you can imagine?
