Lyrics

Dirt

[Verse 1: Prodigy]

Uh, yeah

Yeah

Call it how it is, accordin' to the facts

If rap was prison, our shit would be the supermax

No sunshine, just dark skies

Nothin' but dark thoughts goin' through my mind

I got bad blood, mad love, only for the team though

Everyone one of us is the shooter, now where the beef go?

I ain't seen none of these niggas and we out here

Wanna be celebrity thugs, a lot of mouth, yeah

Oh my god, we could not be fucked with

Real shit, look at our life all in the public

We under the microscope, they all watchin' us

We have no choice but to keep it trill, they sizin' us

And if they wasn't, God always pay attention, don't he?

I couldn't live with myself bein' phony

Look, if life was a game, then I guess we winnin'

'Cause this life we made for ourselves is bitchin', uh

[Verse 2: Havoc]

Didn't want to do it but the voices tug and pullin'

On my eardrums, something that I knew I shouldn't

Got me wildin' with the ratchet out like shit is legal

Lookin' for a victim, put 'em in the fetal

Fuck is going on? When it's on, I know it's on

But shit not really poppin' and I'm lookin' for a war

Lookin' out my window, pointin' shit at police

To make matters worse, I'm sippin' on some OE

Shit got me buzzin', I'm already buggin' though

With mad other bottles that I drank about a month ago

Fuck is on my mind? I'm feelin' bipolar

Plus paranoid, lookin' over both shoulders

I woke up with blood on my hands

Fuck I do this time? Now a nigga scared

Fuck, I'll probably get the fuckin' chair

Grab my fuckin' gun, a few clothes, son, I'm outta here
