Hey lil souljahs you ready for war?
But don't ask what you're fighting for
Just hope that you survive the gunfight, the drama, the stress
You get in the line of fire, we get the big ass checks

Hit the streets and perform for us
Hold hard and bring it on to us, fucker
I let you sip up some army, get a Mercedes
And kick back and let you pay me, my Mack is crazy
