Long Live X

[Intro: Velvet Cash & DMX]

I've been through darkness, been through drama, been through hell and back

I fight my demons with my angels, those who got my back

I hear their whispers, jealousy in their eyes

They wanna block the shine when I'm reaching new highs

Uh

Mmm, what?

Uh, what?

Uh, what?

Uh, come on

[Chorus: DMX]

Know what they say when they talkin', so I just let a nigga say what he feel

Fuckin' with the kid, they gon' end up in the coffin 'cause I'ma say what I gotta with the steel

Niggas hatin' 'cause I got a job, I know it's their job to be hatin'

And we rough ride with the mob and you know the dogs gon' be waitin'

[Verse 1: DMX]

It's about time I reacted

Look at what y'all did to this rap shit

Knowin' niggas is wrong, come on with the cat shit

Whack shit, get niggas torn down, slapped quick

And blam, blam, blam, go down, that quick

Acting like the truth was gone

And I'm saying gotta deal with the ruthless one

This two piece leave your **** ass toothless, son

I go hard, dog, don't do it, too late, it's done

Hold up

[Pre-Drop: DMX]

I'ma show you why dog is the illest

I'ma show you why dog is the illest

[Drop: DMX]

Dog, don't do it, too late, it's done

Dog, don't do it, too late, it's done

I know it's their job to be hatin'

And you know the dogs gon' be waitin'

[Verse 3: Velvet Cash]

In the dark of the night when I roll with the mob

11:25 when I took five shots

Yeah, when I turn up, I don't know how to stop

A couple L's passed, now we know what sparks

Smoke in my hand as we walk to my dock

She like, "Nice boat," I said, "Bitch, it's a yacht"

Yo, pour a little out for my dog up top (D-DMX)

Oh

[Pre-Drop: DMX]

I'ma show you why dog is the illest

I'ma show you why dog is the illest

[Drop: DMX]

Dog, don't do it, too late, it's done

Y'all gon' make me lose my mind

I know it's their job to be hatin'

What?

And you know the dogs gon' be waitin'

[Chorus: DMX]

Know what they say when they talkin', so I just let a nigga say what he feel

Fuckin' with the kid, they gon' end up in the coffin 'cause I'ma say what I gotta with the steel

Niggas hatin' 'cause I got a job, I know it's their job to be hatin'

And we rough ride with the mob and you know the dogs gon' be waitin'

[Outro: DMX]
