Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - Debt to Society lyrics

[Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - Debt to Society lyrics]

Don't you be blinded
Don't believe everything that
They're writin', it's only one-sided
You still wanna punish me when I
Paid my debt back to society?
Why they lie on me?

First off
I'ma set the record straight so won't
You lend me your eardrum
Nobody need to wonder where
The hunger come from
It's full of thunder when it rumble
Stack don't fear none
Got 'em back on the track after so many years
When I was judged by twelve of my peers
That's bullshit they have your life
In the hand of strangers
Now you can add up all the tattoo tears
Still doin' what I feel I gotta do, dawg
That's number one priority
I never been the ordinary
I put the extras on it
They call a nigga minority
They said I was a lost cause
Been in and out the system, doors revolved
I should of been thinkin'
I shouldn't been drinkin' so much
'Cause problems alcohol never could solve
Drop my drawers, on top of the roof clownin'
Had to talk down on 'em, give a nigga hassle
Harassin' i'm livin' in my castle
The blast sound off, keep smashin'
Poundin' on 'em
In the mornin' arrested with a hell
Of a story to tell
Took half of a million, post bail
Fuck it, had to put it all up for sale
While society got us caught
Up in structural violence
So, when the table is turned
We fed up so we uprise
Set it off like an LA wildfire, burn, baby
Burn as the globe turns 'til it's over
Ain't no slackin'
Smack me, I'ma smack you back
And it gets worse if we
Start pullin' out debt

Don't you be blinded
Don't believe everything that
They're writin', it's only one-sided
You still wanna punish me when I
Paid my debt back to society?
Why they lie on me?

Everybody wanna know how the
Greatest is underrated
There's never been another more imitated than
Krayzie, Layzie, Bizzy, Wish, Flesh
Truly amazin'
Here to stay and ain't nobody that
Can move me or sway me
Like a deadly disease
I'm really hella contagion
You better stay away or
You'll catch the innovation
Less the limitation, stretched the litigation
Keepin' my situations heated
With complication
I'm tryna tell 'em how to know I paid my dues
A lot of other rappers couldn't walk
A day in my shoes stayed in my shoes to call
Them my street blues
I pity the fool that try to stop these trues
Now they see me comin', runnin' at 'em
Doin' a hundred
I want it, I need every dollar bill, y'all
All the debt paid up
Even write the check to myself, pay us
Yes, I'm takin' it all

Got a call just the other day
Heard what the media had to say
They don't know about me
Nothing's gonna stop me from climbin'
And I know
They twist the things I do and say
And try to get my soul to break
I'll keep risin' to the top
Give it all I've got, I'm a fighter

Don't you be blinded
Don't believe everything that
They're writin', it's only one-sided
You still wanna punish me when I
Paid my debt back to society?
Why they lie on me?

And let me break it down 'bout livin' Bizzy
Ain't nobody gonna play me, wake up swingin'
But my enemies can't get to me
Remember me, much slicker than a centipede
A deader me's a better me
You motherfuckers 'member when I talk
About the murder, murder, murder
Don't be beggin' to me
'Cause ain't nobody gonna come to my street
I keep heat tell 'em nigga, bailin', nigga
All will be well
And I don't open the lock, no, nigga
Not for the cops
I'm right here, nigga, sittin' on the porch
With my niggas gettin' scorched
While my niggas gettin' torched
We can toss in the stone
Really give 'em a book
'Member the dream, triple beam
When I go back to court in the
Nigga, this me with dinosaurs
By the way, let's tell 'em the truth
That nigga fuckin' with who?
That nigga fuckin' with you
Then let me tell you who you fuckin' with too
Now let me show how we do
See stack can't lose and the devil's bad news
Man, fuck these shoes and the county blues
Everybody wanna do it like Zeus
I came to get loose i came to get raw
I came to get seen with death or no truce
That's gon' be the truth
That's gon' be the rule
I'm in my body ready to die
Forever with you, I'm bailin' with you
You ready to kill, I'm ready to ride
I'll deal with my pride if
My dreams come true platinum still
And that's for Will and that's for real
And that's the last kill
Last time niggas ever see me
Chillin' in the body give me my shotty
I gotta get both of his dues
Now let me slide to the other
Side with all of my troops
I keep rex with the boots
And my nigga recoups who will I write to? I
Done mentioned the pilin'
That I got to pay my debt to society

Don't you be blinded
Don't believe everything that
They're writin', it's only one-sided
You still wanna punish me when I
Paid my debt back to society?
Why they lie on me? Don't you be blinded
Don't believe everything that
They're writin', it's only one-sided
You still wanna punish me when I
Paid my debt back to society?
Why they lie on me?
