Yeah
Shit can happen
Shit can happen
Shit can happen
Shit can happen

Shit can happen
Shit can happen
Shit can happen
That's right, motherfuckers, we pack, same slangin', orangutangin', wildin' out on hood
raps that say I act like I'm too famous to say hi, and tell her what my name is, but really I'm still nameless
You niggas don't get it yet, do you? Dilla not platinum, a flop, I still put it through you
With a Luger that'll spit fire, and hit higher than a pitch-wide bitch like Mariah
You think for one second since we got a deal that we won't deal with you in front of St. Andrew's still?
You gay rappers better learn that, I won't stop until I see them turn back
If you don't slow that roll, you packed, you gon' see these run-your-nab niggas that really need some Prozac
The show that acts to others, but gay to lay you down next to your mother's mother's grandmother
You know I'm feelin' real rowdy tonight, ready to fight, and half the niggas I give dab to I don't even like
Insane cat who never gave a damn about your name, I give the fuck about it like the next L.A. Clippers game
I'll kill you in ways you couldn't even fathom, you and your madam, it's really unexplainable how I have him
People call themselves dreamin' about a challenge, nigga, we got a gift, why you barely makin' it off mere talent?
My skills are deeply embedded, even your host said it, she was not neat, I fucked her, now she's bowlegged
In the middle of rappin', I drop the mic and have her stand down and jump on the ground and start scrappin'
Can I even call an artist, my nigga, we get it crackin', while the paramedics pick you up, we on the side laughin'
This ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh, shit can't happen to him and your ass
You can't be touched, don't think you can't, cause niggas ain't fuckin' around no more, man
This ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh, shit can't happen to him and your ass
You can't be touched, don't think you can't, cause niggas ain't fuckin' around no more, man
The feds can't hold me, I hold feds, I was born with a dark-ass cloud over my head, rainin' acid
You can't refrain from gettin' your ass kicked, cause you talk too much, you ask for it, I'm on some massive shit
Everybody ignore me, they wouldn't fuck with me if I was performin' at an orgy
These niggas get confronted, then they change stories
I catch em' when they thinkin' everything's hunky-dory
I even have you pour me the gasoline for me
Pullin' up slowly, cocktailin' your homies
You met a lot of niggas which you wouldn't wanna know me
Your ass might not even make it home with your rollie
Don't even try, in your system like eagle-eye, tryin' to beef with me
Nigga, please, your people die
I'm so wicked that my mama gave birth illegally
I survived the abortion immediately
Surprise!
Picture me sittin' in a jail cell rottin', barricaded in a motel with twelve shotguns
When the cops come knockin', each hand's got one
Ready to dump slugs, heavy as shot putts
One-man army, guns can't harm me
Youngin' on me, worse than my Uncle Ronnie
Ever since I got my first gun pulled on me, I can't stop airin' out my dirty laundry
Middle fingers flip, that sense of shit
Your friends just flipped over the swift bendin' shit
Ever since I spit some shit on Infinite, I been givin' it a hundred and ten percent
That's when I spent most of my energy spent on enemies
Eighty percent of what I invent is innocent
Twenty percent is from bein' hungry or sin
Ten's because I love bein' under your skin
Yeah, shit can happen, so stick to rappin'
Quit the yappin', or I'ma lift the mackin'
That can lead to another mishap happenin'
Skip the crap, get the can and whoop ass crackin'
Now, this ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh
Shit can happen to him and your ass
You can be touched, don't think you can't
Cause niggas ain't fuckin' around no more, man
This ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh
Shit can happen to him and your ass
You can be touched, don't think you can't
Cause niggas ain't fuckin' around no more, man
It can and it will (Nigga, nigga)
Fuck around with Amityville
And you die, insanity spills
From the mentality of twelve motherfuckers
In six different bodies with their personalities split
Fucking you up with hit after hit
Sticking you up with clip after clip
Making you suck dick after dick
Dirty motherfucking dozen
The Kon Artis
Motherfucking Peter S. Bizarre
Swifty McVay
The Kuniva
Dirty father-fucking Harry
Putting you down in a cemetery
You get buried, you get buried
All of you motherfuckers suck our motherfuckin' cocks
We are not playin', we are not playin', we are not bullshittin'
This is not a motherfuckin' joke
All of you motherfuckers
