I spark like a blunt's tip 00:15
Smoking Cavi making green like Mitch 00:16
Get for rap vocals dispatch with every attempt 00:18
I had his gang shook up when Dre cook up 00:21
Every thug look up 00:24
Grotte got me on chill eyes blood shot heavy built 00:25
Layered out like quill 00:28
Clear to guilt 00:31
I rock for rollers from low riders to hennit toastas 00:31

Accept no imitation straight losing his stack 00:37

I'm pulling strings killing kings cutting off pinky rings 01:41
Seizing control of the whole game 01:45
I take a pull from the blunt and heal and blew the smoke from my lungs into the world of hip hop 01:47

Masters of the game every move we make, through manipulation is the move I choose for you to take 01:58

[English]
I spark like a blunt's tip
Smoking Cavi making green like Mitch
Get for rap vocals dispatch with every attempt
I had his gang shook up when Dre cook up
Every thug look up
Grotte got me on chill eyes blood shot heavy built
Layered out like quill
Clear to guilt
I rock for rollers from low riders to hennit toastas
Cut off dead weight to keep my formulas kosher
Accept no imitation straight losing his stack
Slimmers chances on Michael Jackson getting his black fans back
My reputations like a Tech 9
Knock out the best in the circle
3 minutes wreck time
See the hand is faster than I can chase it
Dre be real Soul assassins got potential buttons activated
No illusion to have you caught up in the rapture
Executive decisions from the motherfuckers!
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
I'm pulling strings killing kings cutting off pinky rings
Seizing control of the whole game
I take a pull from the blunt and heal and blew the smoke from my lungs into the world of hip hop
Ill gangs turn into soldiers by the millions assassins we multiply by the masses
Masters of the game every move we make, through manipulation is the move I choose for you to take
You see what I want you to see
And you turn into whatever I want you to be
Whether it be enemy or ally the aftermath results in Soul Assassins world wide
From coast to coast I got soldiers on post injecting you with the high fuck overdose
Dre in the hell staying real
All you non-believing
Get your cap peeled
Executive order make your time shorter get your recorder play it back
Puff your chronic sack
Your mind body and soul have been captured and taken captive by the motherfuckers
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
You want the puppet?
I'll pull your string, I'm making moves
I'm the master causing you to do what you do
