[Chorus: Scarface]
I can squeeze without✦ blinkin',✦ I'm a cold-blooded✦ nigga✦
Bank robber✦ (Ooh!), I'm a natural✦ born killer✦
Drug dealer,✦ anything✦ it took to survive✦
Even✦ if it took the nigga✦ to die—I'm a gangsta,✦ right?
[Verse 2: Scarface]
I got a brick from a sucker✦ that he wanted✦ to move
But the whole while I'm cookin',✦ I'm like, "Fuck this dude"
It's on, thirty-six zones✦ of my own
Keep the money✦ for myself, and take the work back home
Call that nigga✦ on the phone: ("Ayy") "I just got knocked
And the cops was askin'✦ 'bout you, come get me hot"
Never✦ showed,✦ so fuck him and the money✦ that I owed✦
I got a get-rich-quick scheme, steppin' on the dope
It's cold, but that's it, I'm on it like I want it
And twenty-eight cash and change, the whole game's✦ on it
That means I'm on my feet and I can front the homies✦ D
Break 'em off a couple of C, and double up they fee
Take it over,✦ shoot up they spot, make it hot
And when the cops dry it out, put my work on the block
And if they wanna✦ ride for they corners, we ride right with 'em
Dummy✦ move, whole thing, the goon squad get 'em
[Chorus: Scarface]
I can squeeze without✦ blinkin',✦ I'm a cold-blooded✦ nigga✦
Bank robber✦ (Ooh!), I'm a natural✦ born killer✦
Drug dealer,✦ anything✦ it took to survive✦
Even✦ if it took the nigga✦ to die—I'm a gangsta,✦ right?
[Verse 3: Scarface]
No more petty✦ rock-hustlin', I'm in for the run
And I'm for sure I'm gon' be murdered for this shit that I done
But I'ma✦ die standin' up, 'cause I'm a stand-up nigga✦
Fuck dyin' like a bitch on my knees—I'm a killer✦
So don't nobody✦ cry, 'cause I was destined to get it
Just remember–I'm the one who took the dope game and flipped it
And pimped✦ it, and destroyed everything✦ in the way
Of me seein' first motherfuckin' light of the day
A triggerman, deadly✦ as fuck with a loaded✦ AK
Spot my enemy✦ and kill him the American way
I turned✦ a dream into✦ reality✦ with a 'fuck you' mentality✦
Silencin' all these niggas in the neighborhood who challenged me
Family✦ grievin' from they loved✦ ones'✦ fatality✦
He ain't got a reason✦ to die, then kill him—it's✦ a tragedy
[Chorus: Scarface]
I can squeeze without✦ blinkin',✦ I'm a cold-blooded✦ nigga✦
Bank robber✦ (Ooh!), I'm a natural✦ born killer✦
Drug dealer,✦ anything✦ it took to survive✦
Even✦ if it took the nigga✦ to die—I'm a gangsta,✦ right?
