Can`t keep runnin` away.....
Verse One: Fat Lip
I must admit on some occasions I went out like a punk
and a chump or a sucka or something to that effect
Respect I usedto never get when all I got was upset
when niggas use to be like `What`s up fool!` and tried
to seat a nigga like the Lip for no reason at all I can
recall crip niggas throwin` c in my face down the hall
I`m kickin` it in the back of the school eatin` chicken at
three, wonderin` why is everybody always pickin` on me
I tried to talk and tell tham chill I did nothing to deserve
this But when it didn`t work I wasn`t scared just real
nervous and unprepared to deal with scrappin` no doubt
cuz my pappy never told me how to knock a nigga out
But now in 95 I must survive as a man on my own Fuck
around with Fatlip yes ya get blown I`m not tryin to show
no macho is shown but when it`s on, if it`s on, then it`s on!
Verse Two: Slim Kid Tre
There comes a time in every mans life when he`s gotta
handle up on his own Can`t depend on friends to
help you in a sqeeze, please they got problems of their
own Down for the count on seven chickens shits don`t
get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear
zones Used to get jacked back in high school I played
it cool just so some real shit won`t get full blown Being
where I`m from they let the smoke come quicker than an
evil red-neck could lynch a helpless colored figure And
as a victim I invented low-key til the keyhole itself got
lower than me So I stood up and let my free form form
free I don`t sweat it I let the bullshit blow in the breeze
in other words just freeze
Verse Three: Knumbskull #1
It`s 1995 now that I`m older stress weighs on my shoulders
heavy as boulders but I told ya
till the day that I die I still will be a soldier and that`s all I told
ya and that`s all I showed ya
and all this calamity is rippin` my sanity
Can it be I`m a celebrity
whose on the brink of insanity
Now don`t be wishin`s of switchin` any positions with me
cuz when you in my position, it ain`t never easy
to do any type of maintaining cuz all this gaming and famin` from
entertainin` is hella straining to the brain and...
But I can`t keep runnin I just gotta keep keen and cunnin`...
