For the live ones not the shook ones
For the riders not the hook ones
Immaculate conception like a black Madonna in mangers
My crew consist of millionaires failures and gangbangers
Say my name like Candyman
Then I`m creepin out the cut with a gallon in hand
I span forty nine states bounce rock skate
Similar to movin weight out of state
Lyrics lacerate spinal columns `I bury all cockroaches`
Stare in his face, Stomp-in on bustas like Kirk Franklin
Intrigued by the speed of a 911 Porsche? `But of course`
Still screaming Behold a Pale Horse
Watch my flame turn green like a Promethean torch
Pay no child support when me and my divorce
Some of y`all cats in the game look confused
Where`s your butterfly collar and your crocadile shoes?
Gotta pay dues, street crews -- you know it`s off the hook when
oh-three-one is gangbangin in Brooklyn
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
To all my live ones, not my shook ones
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
To all the riders, not the hook ones
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Music to live by, music to die by
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Uhh, Music to Driveby
I puff the Black & Mild, crusin on a Harley -- flickin ashes
Givin crazy baldheads the finger like Bob Marley
Suaver than synthetic players, that`s my word
See ever since the days of Turkish gold chains and cross cords
Uncle Sam wanna play me on some
`All you people do is get on welfare and have crack babies`
Yeah maybe, but a lot of po-po is racists
they keep a brother fightin federal cases, `ju know`
I`m sick of gettin the short end of the stick -- so I sharpen it...
and stuck Ron Goldman
If ain`t nothing wrong, something just ain`t right
Sometimes I`d rather have two dykes than five mics
See I`m fat, my shit is mo` John Blaze than that
I got John Blaze shit, and then I was un-recognized, and then fuck that
Who is you to be askin me questions?
Bustin caps in nine-eight, exposin niggaz intestines
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
To all my live ones, not the shook ones
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
To all the riders, not the hook ones
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Music to live by, music to die by
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Uhh, Music to Driveby
Now if I ever fall off, then take a picture trick
But I`ma play Dennis Rodman and kick you in the... damn!
Hip-hop smoothed out on the R&B tip, with a pop feel appeal to it
I`m so for real to it
I cream it, wet dream it
Support it like a Wonder Bra, when I bust like cleavage
Eff a spot lock up, I rock three-quarter top Nikes
on the handlebars of the homey beach crusin bikes
Fifty-thousand dollar warrants, just-us/justice, no peace
No bail, no release, from Inglewood court
South to La Brea then East to the Pen, handcuffed
I shoulda jumped off the roof like Mack 10
Create the funny styles with the chokers round the neck
Flossin at the chest hairs in a sequined vest
Ras Kass the Nova Don Juan, the phenomenon
You know I`m the bomb, I raise hell like Spawn
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
To all my live ones, not my shook ones

To all the riders, not the hook ones
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Music to live by, music to die by
`Understandable smooth shit that murderers move with` --> Nas
Uhh, Music to Driveby...
