[Verse 1]

How did you end up here?

Everything seems so clear

Something you must have missed

Why are you laying there waiting for him to say something else?

Nothing is left to say

All that is left is pain

Still, you do nothing but lay and he swear that it’s all a lie

How many tears to cry?

How many times to wake

To silent hostility posing as sleep that you thought would fix?

All of the stones and sticks

Hurled at phones and bricks

And figured this time will be different but clearly it’s all the same

Didn't he call your name?

Once or was that in a dream

Feels like a million years ago, what was it yesterday?

What did he swear you say?

Something 'bout "houses plagued"

Pride and prejudice swinging, a trial you’re always on

You know it won’t be long

How much you can be wrong

Before he realizes you’re human and you got a heart of your own?

Everything here is stone

Break you down to the bone

One day he’ll wake up and you will be gone

[Hook]

This is hustler shit

No love lost

Just blood, no talk

Guns tossed

What’s in a name?

Keep it out your mouth

Swallow your tongue

What you talking ‘bout?

What side is you on?

The game don’t wait

What set you claim?

The same old state

And it’s beef if you want

So jump, motherfucker

Jump, motherfucker (x4)

[Verse 2]

Blood is stuck to your hands

Thought that that was your man

Man if they knew your thoughts

Locked in a box of indifference and there was no getting out

Getting it all around

They know who run this town

But they don’t know who running you when you running from everything

What’s a mob to a king?

Emperors got new clothes

Naked and crying and holding on, what were you fighting 'bout?

Into the lion’s mouth

Never could keep it straight

Something ‘bout being invisible; how could he let you be?

Angry and go to sleep

Give you the coldest stare

Now he is laying there, motionless; why does his chest not move?

What does he wanna prove?

Weren't you always true?

Didn't you give up everything so that you could make it work?

God, he is such a jerk

Daggers don’t mince no words

Why not just end it out here and they’ll never talk shit again

Remember when you were friends?

Everything has to end

But why is it always so sudden with him?

[Hook]

This is hustler shit

No love lost

Just blood, no talk

Guns tossed

What’s in a name?

Keep it out your mouth

Swallow your tongue

What you talking ‘bout?

What side is you on?

The game don’t wait

What set you claim?

The same old state

And it’s beef if you want

So jump, motherfucker

Jump, motherfucker (x4)

[Verse 3]

Two men dead in the street

More vendetta, more beef

Household should be discreet

Dignity gets in the way typically when they’re so alike

Why must these boys all fight?

Guess it’s just in the blood

Just territorial animals; space has been running low

Where else is there to go?

Other than underground

Six feet is perfectly adequate; bring out the yellow tape

Outline them on the street

Of morning’s glooming peace

Nothing is left for the day but the dawn

[Hook]

What set you claim?

The same old state

And it’s beef if you want

So jump, motherfucker

Jump, motherfucker

[Outro]

This is hustler shit

What you switching for?

No office do business at the liquor store

What’s in a name?

Keep it out your mouth

Think it’s a game?

Shit, walk it out

No birds in the house

We talk metaphor

Keep your flag out

Semaphore

And it’s beef if you want

So jump, motherfucker

Jump, motherfucker (x18)
