Yo 'Face, let's set it off
{*gunshot*}
[Scarface]
It was the day that hell had broke loose, demons in the sky with the {?}
Take over✦ the heavens and burn it over✦
It's darker✦ than the hearts of men, but I ain't scared✦ cause I'm a soldier
I walk with my weapon across my shoulder
Refuse✦ to live, yet impossible for me to say I'd rather✦ die
Cause I'm a killer✦ with the devil's eye (uh-huh)
I want the world to feel my heart, my heart, my set, my set
And these niggaz who contested me regret✦ that
Poisonin my own breed to terminate✦ yo' offerin
And may they die young and never✦ live to cause {?}
I'm just wrapped up inside✦ a homicidal mindstate✦
Destined to outrun✦ the time it takes to catch fate
The day that shall come, that thou shalt be done
The day that I run 'til then I smile with the gun
Let off a shot and make the whole world hear it
Murder,✦ I've written in blood, y'all fear it
[Outro]
As I walk through the valley✦ of death I shall
Fear no man but God
