Where your hood at? Where that bookbag? Where that Drac' at? Go and get that

This that treat talk, don't get caught lackin', leave you like that last one

They act hard, bullets clap 'em, leave him in that backyard (what?)

Why you lie? You ain't even get back for your last dawg (you lied)

Why you ain't slide? We was in the trenches with our mask off

How he died? Them bullets ate his face, it's D.O.A (let's get it)

Know how to die, the only thing y'all beatin' us in the race (let's get it)

We got time to slide, the only thing we duckin' is the jakes (skrrt)

Grab the Glock, and it ain't no safety (let's get it)
