[00:10.32] Don't say sticks and stones
[00:12.00] They might break your bones
[00:13.25] But the nine millimeter, it'll bore your dome
[00:15.65] I'm talkin about the toe-taggin
[00:17.22] Huh, the body-baggin
[00:19.07] Man, niggas are dyin, huh, mommas are cryin, casket buyin
[00:22.31] Who, me dyin, leave my family cryin?
[00:24.53] Hell no, I cause, um, bloodbaths and showers
[00:26.88] Send me commissary, motherfuck them flowers
[00:29.46] Thoughts of slaughter, of leaving my daughters
[00:32.04] Hours and hours of fears running through my mind
[00:34.61] As I pick up the Zig 9
[00:36.29] Beef starts with the shove and ends with the shovel
[00:39.96] And niggas standing on your corner reminiscing of you
[00:42.87] But your ass is out and you're dead and gone
[00:45.20] So who'd you rather be?
[00:46.85] The murdered, or the murderer?
[00:48.63] Niggas got me stressed - I got my Tek and my vest
[00:51.86] And I sing who Jah bless, let no man curse
[00:54.06] Or one of us will leave here tonight in a hearse
[00:56.74] For we'll be tried by 12
[00:58.26] And fertilizing daisies
[00:59.76] Crying mommas and cousins and crying babies
[01:02.28] Due to the fact that death is a must
[01:04.65] Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
[01:07.47] Niggas getting bust
[01:08.97] For in God we trust
[01:10.25] So if you're comin to my town and try to slow the dough down
[01:12.48] You must be casket-bound
[01:14.26][01:25.46][02:15.41][02:25.96]
[01:14.81][01:23.06][02:15.97][02:23.44] Cause I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6
[01:16.90][02:18.38] Nigga
[01:17.71] I sign my name on the book at your funeral
[01:19.71][02:20.93] The Zig's on my hip with an extra clip
[01:25.98] La-di-da-di
[01:27.51] Saturday night and we like to party
[01:29.83] The punks are fucking around so we might catch a body
[01:32.54] Early Sunday morning, don't really wanna hurt nobody
[01:35.80] So what they tryin to get?
[01:37.52] I already got it
[01:38.60] Chump motherfuckers just a-schemin on my shit
[01:41.13] But little do they know I got the Zig on my hip with an extra clip
[01:44.97] And I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6
[01:47.81] Aw shit - murder commit
[01:50.10] And there goes another statistic runnin' through ballistic
[01:52.70] The witness say I'm wicked
[01:54.45] But that's how I kick it
[01:55.44] Cause I'll be the bastard who blasts and didn't get blasted
[01:58.04] Boy kiss dem casket
[02:00.07] I cut your wig back kid
[02:01.63] Sucker, look who died
[02:03.16] Body will be identified
[02:05.04] Momma and poppa will cry, bitch-ass man says he'll testify
[02:08.62] To see me tried, but here's I slide
[02:11.61] Upon the same corner that you did
[02:13.79] And I'm still facing a bid
[02:18.97] I sign my name at the book at your funeral
