Mobb Deep - Shook Ones, Part I lyrics
[Mobb Deep - Shook Ones, Part I lyrics]
The most violent of the violentest
Crimes we give life to
If these Queensbridge kids don't like you
We bring drama of the worst kind of enemies
Your first time will be
Your last Earth memories
It's only your own fault
I gave you fair warning
Beware of killer kids who don't care
Unaware fools will be dealt with in time
It ain't a mystery how I
Form the words in rhyme
In nineteen hundred and ninety square
All shook niggas is supposed to have fear
Tryna get a piece of this pie
We don't share
Prepare for the worst 'cause I been there
Try to keep a positive mind and
Walk a straight line don't work
So niggas is forced to do dirt
And God made dirt, so this dirt won't hurt
If I listen to the lessons
And the rules I learnt
On these streets for nineteen
Years and not leaving
My first priority's to reach
Twenty one breathing
Forever beef, nobody will ever be even
So I grab the heat before breezing
Lost in this foul mind state
I can't keep straight thinkin'
But I keep my eyes on
The Earth without blinking
It's hard to be a man in
This land of the venom
Any man try to front he get slugs in him
Because
He ain't a crook son (son)
He just a shook one (shook one)
We live the life that of diamonds and guns
And numerous ways that we
Choose to earn funds some niggas get shot
Locked down and turn nuns
Cowardly hearts and straight up shook ones
(shook ones) he ain't a crook son
He just a shook one (shook one)
For every rhyme I write it's 25 to life
To all my peoples in the Bridge
Know what I'm talking 'bout, right
Ain't no time for hesitation
That only leads to incarceration
You don't know me, there's no relation
'Cause Queens niggas don't play
I don't got time for the he say
She say I'm bigger than that
Claiming that you pack a gat but
You scared to get locked
Once you get upon the Island
Change your ways and stop
Thirteen years in the projects of
Hard times I've lived in
Wake up in the morning thank
God I'm still living
Sometimes I wonder do I deserve to live
Or I am going to burn in hell
For all the shit I did?
No time to dwell on that
'cause my brain reacts
Front if you want nigga
Lay on your back, I don't fake jacks kid
You know I bring it to you live
Stay in a child's place, kid you outta line
Criminal minds thirsty for
Recognition mission
I'm strictly sipping E&J like
Got my mind flippin'
I'm bugging digging my ways out
Of holes by hustlin' get that loot kid
You know my motherfucking function
'Cause long as I'm alive I'ma live illegal
And once I get on I'ma put on all my peoples
React quick, spit lyrics like MACs I hit
Your dome up, when I roll up
Don't be caught sleeping
'cause I'm creeping you just a shook one
He ain't a crook son he just a shook one
We live the life that of diamonds and guns
And numerous ways that we
Choose to earn funds some niggas get shot
Locked down and turn nuns
Cowardly hearts and straight up shook ones
(shook ones) he ain't a crook son
He just a shook one (shook one)
We live the life that of diamonds and guns
And numerous ways that we
Choose to earn funds some niggas get shot
Locked down and turn nuns
Cowardly hearts and straight up shook ones
(shook ones)
He ain't a crook son (crook son)
He just a shook one (shook one)
Crimes we give life to
If these Queensbridge kids don't like you
