[Intro: Nature]
Yo to my people doing time
Xzibit, Juvenile, y'all need to... (Wake up everybody)
Nature
Ja Rule, Reptile come on, bring the heat

[Verse 1: Xzibit]
Look, I'm inhumane livin' in this house of pain
Stuck with a thousand street hustlers down on they luck
Repeat felons caught up with the death I was sellin'
And for the past three months yo I can still hear my victims yellin'
But I can't listen to my conscience it's nonsense
If I didn't shoot I'd be the n*gga in the suit in the box under the ground
Fox chased by the hound locked permanent frown Xzibit get down
By liftin' iron by the pound for the tough individual
Runnin' run his mouth throw some hands with the General
Walk one day in the shoes of a criminal
Death disease keep your luxuries to a minimal
I'm not talkin' about weed, jewels and Bentleys
I'm talkin' about clean clothes, hot food, and Dentyne
See what I mean livin' with the sc*m of the earth
Hit with plenty of time to adjust to life on the inside

[Sample from "Shook Ones Part II" of Mobb Deep]
"For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life"
[Verse 2: Juvenile]
You got me f*cked up I'm innocent look I ain't do sh*t
You don't want to hear my side but you believin' that b*tch
You makin' my nerves bad I need to smoke me a jo'
Cause I know y'all ain't even thinkin' 'bout lettin' me go
Where my lawyer, n*gga told me Juv' I can't do nothin' for ya
Y'all go tell that to my mother and my father
But they gon' cuss ya out so don't you even bother
You know that sh*t ain't right that
b*tch didn't see nothin' cause it was dark at night
But I guess us blacks look the same to y'all
Passin' n*ggas around like a game of ball
This is my third felony, plus my third strike
Man I ain't goin' home I got 25 to Life

[Sample from "Shook Ones Part II" of Mobb Deep]
"For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life"

[Verse 3: Nature]
QU New York, you try to criticize me I criticize you
Been the same muthaf*cka since in high school
Any beat I shed light to with crazy wattage
Blankin' out bought my first eight ball for eighty dollars
Learned who not to trust grew obnoxious
So n*ggas start to hate me same time the boys in blue watch us
Circlin' but they don't slow down
Take you to court think you seein' Judge Joe Brown they just actin'
n*ggas throwin' Tyson back in another year
f*ckin' with a n*gga's career
I c*ck back at you bust in the air
Give me space beats with plenty bass drink my Hennessey straight
'Til I hurl out third world clout I'll take n*ggas hearts
And turn killers into girl scouts works of art
Picasso from the Hydro roller/hustler
CEO/retired soldier
[Sample from "Shook Ones Part II" of Mobb Deep]
"For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life"

[Verse 4: Ja Rule]
Kill or be killed behind the wall 40 day short
Still the thought of murderer true to the sport
I bang with the best in n*ggas career criminals
Now I'm in with these youngins lookin' to feel me out
Hollerin' 'bout how they gon' hit on me now
n*ggas is real wild bangin' before trial
New case, new trial, I don't give a f*ck
I'm playin' the yard ox taped to my nuts
Ready to self destruct, Lord I don't wanna die
But what powered your honor to hit me with 25, f*ck 'em
I know that real recognize every hustle
And die with they n*ggas in the struggle, ya feel me?

[Verse 5: Reptile]
Oh God shells loaded in the semi auto quoted
Unknown cat never voted, picture me on the scene
Huntin' for greens like Mike Meyers trick or treatin' on Halloween
Mashed down in fatigues servin' the fiends
Kill or be killed metal pipes under the sleeve
In the city slicker bust checks or puff cess ruffneck
Love liquor and act figures bloodsport on the streets
No gloves pullin', knives out the 'fridge handin' out cold cuts
Uhh, streets real thug so recognize thug close yo' eyes thug
You 'bout to die thug!
Call the President I'm blowin' up ya residence
Spill acid on the corpse to clear the evidence
Protestors outside screamin' free Gotti
Guard your body SWAT teams is waitin' with the shotty
[Sample from "Shook Ones Part II" of Mobb Deep]
"For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life"

[Bridge + Sample]
Y'all need to... (Wake up everybody)
"For every rhyme I write get 25 to Life"
Y'all need to... (Wake up everybody)

[Ending: Nature]
For all my people doin' time
Kep your head up
Wyclef Jerry "Wonder"
New Millenium, new millenium come on
