Lyrics

The Life

[Intro]

Blaow [x13]

Haha, come on

That's right

For Life [x4]

Yeah, shonuff

Y'all scared, First Family, nigga, for Life, haaah

For Life [x4]

Check-Check it out, y'all

First Family [x4]

Turn that up...

[Verse 1: Billy Danze]

Good morning, America, salute (Salute, uh)

I'm here to warn you the shit that you goin' through

Stealin' on your own too (Uh)

Your life could be easily drained

Cowards ain't got no aim (No)

Slugs ain't got no name (No)

It's not a game, can I get a witness?

CLACK CLACK

That's them cats that came with me, I got Bo

Tef flippin' thangs with me

And we are actual survivors

Of the slimy snake pits of you connivers (Why?)

That thought we couldn't hold our fort

WATCH YOUR BACK, DANZE (Blaow [x5])

Come on

Try to blast me, I'll do work then murk

They'll never be able to catch me

I'll bust a round for you

Empty this pound for you

For the rappin' Fire Empire I'll open, the ground for you

[Chorus]

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Stuck up in this bitch

[Verse 2: Lil' Fame]

I'm movin' with terrorists, criminals, menaces (Yeah)

Career thugs that prepare slugs for their death sentences

FIRST FAMILY

Look, I hope you cats understandin' me

MISTER FIZZY WOMACK

The man to be-

THE FIRING RAPIDLY

Representin' 'to the day, after in-finity

What these niggas that begin to meet

FUCK THESE RAP DUDES

To whatever they pretend to be

MAYDAY, MAYDAY

Jokes, I blow spots like, Timothy McVeigh

Without a ride I struck, line 'em up, watch your block get struck

When I'm through, make 'em hide and duck

I blow, face, bottoms, speakers and they tweeters burnin' mad receivers

Walkin' out, with the baddest [shivers?], kid, believe us (Believe us)

[Chorus]

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Stuck up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

Stuck up in this bitch

[Verse 2: Billy Danze]

I represents Brownsville Death Trap

Come on in, if you had my hand, nigga, you'd throw your name

(I hear that)

Listen, I hate to fuck up the mood

Who's the man thinking they can stand in Danze shoes?

Unidentical to fake or nots, and then props

The First Family will still come, stompin' down your blocks

(Style)

Nah, I ain't come to cause all this, just a simple conversation

But of course I got my Fire on

[Verse 3: Lil' Fame]

Full clips for cats that want no cool shit

You're a great salesman, but I'm, sick of buyin' your bullshit

FIRING SQUAD'S THE BOMBEST

Here's your ticket to just, enter the ass kickin' contest

Yo, don't ever be pushin' me to get into no type of ghetto complication

'Cause I'mma be blastin' and mashin' fools that be wantin' a confrontation

I'M SKEPTIC

I got a grip on for the thugs at night

IT'S HECTIC

But I'mma keep on puttin' down my rights, For Life

For Life

(For Life)

[Chorus]

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Stuck up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

Stuck up in this mothafucka

For Life

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka

M.O.P

Stuck up in this mothafucka

For Life [x4]

Yeah

M.O.P

Back up in this mothafucka
