I've seen so many things. Out in the streets you feel like nothing. Low and behold It's the greatest story ever told In the dark I roll Never sell my soul Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn The road's long Stay strong Hold on 'Cause I won't stop 'till the break of fucking dawn Started in '91 The high and mighty ones Big guns, tiny ones A block of ninety sons Holdin' a nine and some Wildin' out on the corner On the Terra blocks Hidin' out Vibin' out we never cry about What we don't have We go get it Live and die Laugh and cry That's how we livin' In the hardest times We write the hardest lines Never were blind To the crime For nickels and dimes When the soul is heavy you can feel it baring down Yeah, be careful what you wishin' Heavy lies the crown When you coming up from nothing, no one be around When it's time for coronation yeah they held you down You can play that role You would sell your soul I will dig your hole Put you in it - go When they ask about you Ya, We don't know I will dig your hole (Yo, yo, yo, yo) Low and behold It's the greatest story ever told In the dark I roll Never sell my soul Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn The road's long Stay strong Hold on 'Cause I won't stop 'till the break of fucking dawn Innovators over imitators If you really got the hustle you gon' get the paper Cypress black burnin' tracks like incinerators Bring the stacks for the pack, you can taste the flavor In all black coming through like the Raiders out the tunnel In the way we gonna rush you, all bite no muzzle Bring the bikes out the huddle We take off like a shuttle I'm far from subtle, yeah my niggas tryna bubble Bringing trouble to a city near you Switching lanes on these lames Leave them in the rearview Because we live this life Watch me rip this mic 'Bout to kill this show Too much shit been hot All this weed I smoke All the sacrifice All the sleepless nights I know I don't get twice So every time Imma bring it to your doorstep Ready for war more or less Low and behold It's the greatest story ever told In the dark I roll Never sell my soul Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn Just keep pushin' on and on and on I'll never stop 'till the break of fucking dawn The road's long Stay strong Hold on 'Cause I won't stop 'till the break of fucking dawn
