[B-real] It was a cold dark night in December Running from the po-po's the alleyway I enter Trying to hideaway when I stumbled on a gun And nobody's knows nothing about where it came from And nothing hotter then the summers in June Who knows how many souls they put in the tomb When I picked it up man, I felt alot of pain Like a shot thru the brain for reasons I can't explain After it went away I felt a sudden change Like, I can do anything and don't get in my way I'm scared for my family They couldn't understand with gun in my hand I became another man No more running and hiding away from the cops No more getting robbed from the dudes on the block You're looking at a new man in the light of the sun You're staring down the barrel of a dead man's gun [Chorus] cuz you never know what's around them corners Enemies try to run up on us So I keep that gun right by my side if you want it you gotta take my life and if you got problems I got answers one shot from the revolver, can solve it anyway you want it, it don't matter if you got hard, imma go harder (you gotta take my life) [B-real] You walk into a dream and shit feels like a game everyone is different but they all end up the same Even the places and the faces all change At the end of the dream, I could see the bullets rain I thought it was me who brought these people to the death 'Til I noticed a funny thing, I was standing on the left Looking at other people with their hands on the gun And pulling the trigger until their enemies were done And with each hand that held the gun it got deeper They ended a question against the shoulder of the Reaper they all look invincible with the weapon that was cursed Until it was their turn to ride in the hearse Seems like the history is passing down to me Cuz my finger was itching to go after my enemies I welcome them all with the best on my chest Because I put em to the test And laid those bodies to rest [Chorus] cuz you never know what's around them corners Enemies try to run up on us So I keep that gun right by my side if you want it you gotta take my life and if you got problems I got answers one shot from the revolver, can solve it anyway you want it, it don't matter if you got hard, imma go harder (you gotta take my life) [B-real] Spring for more pimpin' Time passes by And people are telling me about the look in my eye Sayin' it seems there's a chip on my shoulder And for some reason my attitude has gotten bolder I knew it was true cuz I felt myself changin' But I don't care what they think cuz I'm still the same man I don't show weakness anymore without a question Don't wanna be stressin' and have to teach them rappers a lesson never a time i felt so alive and situations I thrive like bees to a hive I murder these new kids who got something against me The thought of you talkin' shit really fuckin' offends me In no time at all we come back to each other Seems like I've seen it before Swear it on my mother Shot rang out and my hands went numb Body on the floor with the dead man's gun [Chorus] cuz you never know what's around them corners Enemies try to run up on us So I keep that gun right by my side if you want it you gotta take my life and if you got problems I got answers one shot from the revolver, can solve it anyway you want it, it don't matter if you got hard, imma go harder (you gotta take my life) (you gotta take my life) (you gotta take my life) (you gotta take my life) (you gotta take my life)
