Now the funeral is over,^✦ and all the tears are dried up

Niggas^✦ hangin'^✦ tape on the cut getting fired^✦ up

Lookin'^✦ for the nigga^✦ who pulled^✦ his pistol^✦ on my homie

An eye for an eye, so now your life is what you owe me

Look deep into^✦ the eyes of your motherfuckin'^✦ killer^✦

I want you to witness your motherfuckin'^✦ murder,^✦ nigga^✦

And since you wants to kill then your ass has gots to fry

But ain't no police,^✦ therefore your ass has gots to die

We play the game for keeps and if you slipped I guess you sleep

You sure 'nough fucked^✦ and now your ass is six-feet deep

'Cause where I come from yo, everybody's got a gat

And niggas^✦ try your ass just to see where you got your heart at

And if your shit is flimsy^✦ then your ass is gonna^✦ bend

And like I said before^✦ there'll be no tears in the end

I'm rollin'^✦ through your hood and now my heart is filled^✦ with anger^✦

You at your sister's^✦ house and now your sister's^✦ life's^✦ in danger^✦ (By a total^✦ stranger)

With a gang of, niggas^✦ wantin'^✦ to bang you

And hang you, stain you, with one up in the chamber

Let's take a trip up Holaway

So you can see how many^✦ niggas^✦ in my hood is down to die today^✦

We standin' up for our own shit

And if you outside the clique then you die, bitch (Quick)

It ain't no love in this motherfucker^✦

It ain't no love for yourself or your other^✦ brother, uh

Because we real with this shit so we stay true

And since we bang then we do what O.G. say do

I've got the mind of the man in the mirror so I'm lookin'^✦ at me vaguely

But I can't seem to fade me

I've got my pistol^✦ pawn cocked^✦

Ready^✦ to lick shots nonstop until^✦ I see your monkey-ass drop

And let your homies^✦ know who done it

'Cause when it comes^✦ to this gangsta shit you motherfuckers know who run it, uh

So when you put this motherfucker^✦ to the test

You gotta^✦ realize something nigga^✦ (You fucking with the very^✦ best)

I got this killa^✦ up inside^✦ of me

I can't talk to my mother^✦ so I talk to my diary^✦

I'm goin' off on the deep end

I found myself^✦ face-to-face with myself^✦ while I'm sleepin'

I see your picture in my head and my hands shake

You can run, you can hide but there's^✦ no escape^✦

My inner^✦ feelings show no mercy^✦ on my enemy^✦

I got to get this motherfucker^✦ fore he gets to me

So in your own blood, you'll bathe

And I won't stop until^✦ I put this motherfucker^✦ in his fuckin'^✦ grave

And I can say this once again^✦

You can cry but you'll still die, they'll be no tears in the end
