DMX - The Story Lyrics
From black gangster soundtrack[dmx]Im always talking shit, cause wherever I go I walk in shitAnd now they got me on some stalking shitBroad daylight, niggaz is crying, but I dont want anyone to blastSo from the roof I pick em off like a scabAnd watch the slug bust a thug like a watermelonHe shoulda thought about that before caught a terrorAnd now another kid grows up without a daddy or a mommyCause at the funeral I hit up the caddy,Its the army for real niggaz with nothing to loseCause when its time to go you dont get to chooseI make the mutha*****in rules and I enforce it,Shortys people was loose hand so he lost itI took the joints and tossed them, in the river,At the same spot that I dumpedThis kid that didnt wanna give a nigga the combo, to the safe in the cribLook, money, thats why I did what I did{2 niggaz talking.....}[dmx]Mad stressed and Im about to have a breakdownIts time for pops who got the store on the corner to have get a shakedownHe hasnt paid for protection in like two monthsSo I figured Id leave him wit like two frontsI break up shit to let him know that Im realReminder, I know where you live so dont squealTold him, next time I come, have some paper for meDont ***** around and turn into another caper for meCause though hes cool all that cool shit stopsAnd I be in the crowd talking bout, yo who killed pops?Its a shame, he was caught up in the game and couldnt play itSo I smoked him, I asked him whos the man and made him say itThree times, and thats how many times I hit himA nigga was acting like he didnt have to pay so I did himYo I think this shit is going to my head (for real)But let that be a lesson, dont pay dues and you dead{2 niggaz talking.....}[dmx]A little birdie told me that the feds were on to meAnd they wanted to do something real wrong to meSo I broke out, blazed the l for a whileChecked my sources and found my name was on fileUnder gun for hire and extortion, but yo I never useThe same joint twice as a precaution and I heard this kid tried to set me upHe knew I knew so he tried to wet me upSee he was under investigation for drugsThey set up all types of phone taps and bugsThen when they bagged him, money went out, reprisent (he was my friend)Said theyd let him go, all he had to do was snitchAnd I know now he wish they would have kept himCause it was sweet how I crept him, wet him up then left himAnd thats for mu*****as that dont knowGo against the grain and you feel the painAight yo?
