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

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

Scarface delivers a masterclass in '93 Southern storytelling, utilizing a relentless, mono-tonal intensity that reinforces the bleak nihilism of his subject matter, turning simple narrative sequences into visceral, high-stakes cinema.

Verified Doubles & Entendres

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

① A literal invocation of retributive justice/lex talionis.② A direct threat framing the opponent's existence as a debt that can only be settled via homicide.

"If your shit is flimsy then your ass is gonna bend"

① Physical fragility/cowardice when faced with armed confrontation.② A metaphor for moral or structural character breaking under the pressure of street violence.

"Stain you, with one up in the chamber"

① To cause a physical stain (blood) on a person.② A colloquialism for marking or ending someone's life, reinforced by the literal 'chamber' of the firearm.

Exceptional command of pacing and vocal weight

Cohesive world-building through direct, brutal imagery

Seamless integration of internal multisyllabic clusters

High level of thematic maturity for 1993

Relies heavily on genre-standard tropes (eye for an eye)

Vocabulary is intentionally utilitarian rather than expansive

Lack of complex multi-layered wordplay compared to later technical eras
