[G#] It's kill or be killed, ain't nothing to [Fm] lose.

Tucks and his socks on him.
Chucks, and the Charlotte Hornet cap
when he flowed, then they all surprised on him.
Yes, he's a Fuji, but he go all Nas on
him.
Well, he ain't go prize on him.
And he's got that crossover.

Nope, no, I don't know pilots.
Nigga, I ain't no pirates.
Violence to islands.
Shout out to my hydrants.
Put your hands up
like it's a motherfucking silence.

It's just an injury.
My victory's [E] undefeated.
Thought you knew me well.
Go back and delete it.
[A] I'm in every joint [Em] this year.
Or to use it.
Yes, the AKs are [N] instruments.
We do drum them somewhere between [Am] killer and King Solomon.
And the shades take half [E] the face.
We over them and treat obstacles like ass.
_ [C] Man, [E] they really made me do this.
I was peaceful like a Buddhist.
But then niggas came and screwed it up like Judas.
Now I'm suited up to do this.
Ruger suddenly intruders turn around like.
Who the fuck do you think you are?
[B] And I paid my dues.
