Death Wish They must got a death wish They was on the road to the riches back in the day they got off on the exit Trill disrespect shit Whenever a nigga try to fuck up your investment It's hard to digest it Young niggas don't want to get punched in they faces So they keep the burner on, to catch a bunch of cases These old niggas still think they livin' in the '80s The shawties they knew since they were babies turn crazy The bitches still holla at anybody Lookin' like they have a couple dollars Fuck suck and swallow Ain't nobody winnin' but everybody can't lose Dirts still there funeral home ain't move Going in coming out gang affiliated Rather go back before being humiliated A black cloud over the hood you can't escape it Dust smokin' niggas walk around in the matrix Loyalty is thin, tension is thick Look at a broke nigga's face when you mention a brick Stick up kids come around, when they sense that you rich Cans of lizzle get lit, when you get hit with a fifth Niggas they used to hoop dreamin' is now sellin' the piff And they still rattin' but you can't tell if you stiff Especially when the tek spit, fuck around get your head and your neck hit Lookin' for a death wish, walk Talkin' out your mouth All wreckless to a nigga that you know That'll let it off That's a death wish When your heart stops and your body gets breathless And help don't come in enough time That's a death wish When you see the blood, realize that your chest is hit And don't know where it came from That's a death wish When you know a nigga whole style's on select shit (Young money)when you violate 'em, fwah That's a death wish On that way left shit Better get right or get left shit Better hit right or get left, hit Even if you threw the best pitch Yes bitch It's Weezy F. Bitch I'm the best, bitch Muthafuck your guest list I'll be like let's just kill 'em And get breakfast Neck slit, neck shit expect this Everytime you check this I'm exit I mean excited to be your death wish Bitch I wear this G-shit on my heart not my necklace And I keep the hypno' for the hecklers And I'm from the mecca of the wreckless With a record-breaking debt list The wreckers and neglectors think all that shit won't affect us I'm high above you above law above average Niggas snitchin puttin niggas in the can like a beverage Damn I pop out your head fuck up your memories I'll put a bullet in Nina head and let her reminisce Yea You still don't remember shit You gon' remember this I'm knockin' niggas down this year I'm on my timber shit Big lion growl at you niggas on that simba shit I be on that fuck yo clique I kill every member shit Cool as December shit Bang in any weather shit And they can buy your bag but the parts sold separate Yea that's a bad bitch Like Russian roulette bitch Weezy be the genie in the bottle here's your death wish Talkin' out your mouth All wreckless to a nigga that you know That'll let it off That's a death wish When your heart stops and your body gets breathless And help don't come in enough time That's a death wish When you see the blood, realize that your chest is hit And don't know where it came from That's a death wish When you know a nigga whole style's on select shit (Young money)when you violate 'em, fwah That's a death wish
