    [Child:] Why you by the window
    , what''s wrong daddy




    [Mother:] I know what''s wrong with that crazy motherfucker

    He''s just stand by the goddamn window

    with that fuckin'' AK all day

    You don''t work, you don''t fuck, you don''t,

    you don''t do a goddamn thing



    I see death around the corner, gotta stay high while I survive

    In the city where the skinny niggas die

    If they bury me, bury me as a G nigga, no need to worry

    I expect retaliation in a hurry

    I see death around the- corner, anyday

    Trying to keep it together, no one lives forever anyway

    Strugglin and strivin, my destiny''s to die

    Keep my finger on the trigger, no mercy in my eyes

    In a ball of confusion, I think about my daddy

    Madder than a motherfucker, they never shoulda had me

    I guess I seen too many murders, the doctors can''t help me

    Got me stressin'' with my pistol in my sheets, it ain''t healthy

    Am I paranoid
    - Tell me the truth

    I''m out the window with my AK, ready to shoot

    Ran out of endo and my mind can''t take the stress,

    I''m out of breath

    Make me wanna kill my damn self,

    but I see death around the corner



    [Chorus]



    (When we were kids, belonging felt good)

    I see death around the corner

    (But having respect, that feels even better)

    I see death around the corner

    (When we were kids, belonging felt good)

    I see death around the corner

    (But having respect, that feels even better)



    I see death around the corner,

    the pressure''s getting to me

    I no longer trust my homies,

    them phonies tried to do me

    Smoking too much weed,

    got me paranoid, stressed

    Pack a gat and my vest,

    under my clothes when I dress

    Here''s hopin I die the way I lived,

    straight thuggin''

    Huggin'' my trigger for all them niggas

    who was buggin''

    My homie told me once,

    don''t you trust them other suckers

    They fought like they your homies

    but they phony motherfuckers

    And even if I did die young, who cares

    All I ever got was mean mugs and cold stares

    I got homies in my head

    who done passed away screamin, please

    Young nigga, make Gs

    I can''t give up, although I''m hopeless,

    I think my mind''s gone

    All I can do is get my grind on, death around the corner



    [Chorus]



    I was raised in the city, shitty

    Ever since I was an itty bitty kitty

    Drinkin'' liquor out my momma''s titty

    And smokin'' weed was an everyday thang in my household,

    And drinking liquor til'' you out cold

    And tho'' i''m gone now, nigga it''s still on- Pow

    Bustin on them niggas til they gone

    How many more jealous ass bitches, comin for my riches

    Now I gotta stay suspicious when I bone

    Cause if I ain''t sharp and heartless,

    them bitches will start shit

    Excuse me, but this is where we part bitch

    No more game for free, please explain to me

    Why niggas trip bitch, who you came to see


    Murderin'' now but see me later man, as for my pops

    I got homies that will hunt you til you drop

    I hope the Lord will forgive me, I was a G

    And gettin high was a way of gettin free

    I see death around the corner



    [Chorus]



    This is for all the real mothafuckin niggas out there

    I know you ain''t scared to die

    We all gotta go, ya know


    A real motherfucker will pick the time he goes

    And make sure he handles his motherfuckin business

    Y''all niggas stop acting like pussies out there,

    all right



    [Movie bites]



    I''m tired off getting ripped off by guys like that



    I want his family dead, I want his house burned to the ground

    I want to got there in the middle of the night,

    I wanna piss on his head

    I want his family dead, I want his house burned to the ground

    I want to got there in the middle of the night,

    I wanna piss on his head



    I want that sonova bitch dead, I want him dead

    I want him dead, I don''t care
