[Intro: DMX]
What these b*tches want from a n*gga?

[Verse 1]
Ayo it's death before dishonor
You f*ck with me or my family then I'm pullin' out a Llama
The only way I can keep calm is a strain of marijuana
I send you to the zombie walk, I'm a savage, just not a desiigner
I may have suicidal thoughts, you know this sh*t's depressin'
What comes around goes around, out of my Smith & Wesson
My role models are Don Vito Corleone and Al Capone
Minus the Syphilis, but you know this sh*t infectious
Even when I'm in the zone, there's only so many sins I can atone
That when I make it to the afterlife, hell's my place, no side steppin'
Coke deals and guns, that's how I get my money for my kid's college
So they don't stoop down to my level, want them to get some knowledge
Two strikes on a criminal record, there ain't no way to get a job
So we have to do what we need to do feed the fam, which is kill and rob
If you try to dishonor me, then you will perish
After Once Upon a Time, no more mafia, there will be just Erik

[Hook: Charlie F]
It's like a lot of games bein' played
How's it goin' down?
If it's on 'til we gone then I gots to know now
Is you wit' me or what?
Yeah
It's like a lot of games are bein' played
How's it goin' down?
If it's on 'til we gone then I gots to know now
Is you wit' me or what?
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Mastering the art of manipulation is the way of life up in the crew
In this way of life there is no way of telling what will be done to you
Easily offended over honor, get the mac milly, and splat
Or else you could end up worse: in the back of the trunk like Billy Batts
Mafia trench coats, Tommy guns and automatics
Don't f*ck with the gang, or else you'll be caught in traffic
Stay on the lee low, don't be caught up on cameras
And that's a route for success, cause the fame is just so bad for us
Don't run out of stamina, or end up in the back of the trash
And you'll find out your killer could take your wife with the smack of an ass
Life's cruel but f*ck it, or else you'll lose your chance
The devil is in the pale moonlight, but will you do the dance?
I challenge death everyday to a game of chess
And I always await my checkmate, fear of bullets go through your chest
f*ck the coke game, if we tight, you know I wouldn't charge some fifty
A lot of games are going down, so the real question is are you with me?

[Hook]
