[dmx - dialogue]

I ain't goin back to jail

Next timethe county or the state see me

It's gonna be in a bag



Uhh! this is it baby!

End of the roadha hah!

When you a dawgyou a dawg for life!

You don't hear me thoughyou don't hear me though

You don't hear me thoughc'monc'mon!



[method man]

Watch them young guns that take nonenobody safe

From the friday the 13thghetto jason

Itchy trigger finger achinsnatch yo' ass

Out that s-class for fakinforty-fo' blast

Is a bloodbathtake your first step down a thug path

Ain't no love herejust slugs here

Kids know the half you get plugged herethat's just impossible

For the weak to last now behold the unstoppable

Third eye watchin youwatchin me

Throwin rocks from the penalty boxcop a plea

Young g we was born to diedon't cry for me

Just keep the heat closely and ride for me

Cause we family for better or worseyou and i

From the dirtyou snatch purseso hard it hurt

To be hereand each yearI'm pourin out more beer

For deceased peersholdin fort

Police line 'do not cross'they found his corpse

In the loft with the head cut offand butt naked

Homicide the crime methodadd another

Killer verse to the murder recordthe grand finale



[lennox speaking - movie dialogue]

Who wan' test mec'mon!

[nas escobar]

Hot cornerscops with warrantsevery block is boring

Friday nightgetting bentlick a poem

My dawgnot even home a month yetand blaze a girl

In the stomachhe robbin niggaz who pumpin

Lil' blood got poppedby the group home cat

Everybody nervous in the hoodpullin they gats

Fiend yellin outwho got those?  go and see

Shorty snot-nosedhe don't floss but he got dough

Thug facesfugitives runnin from court cases

Slugs shootin past for the love of drug paper

Queens cap peelerssoldiersdrug dealers

And god'll throw a beam of lightning down cause he feel us

May the next onestrike me down if I'm not the realest

The mayor wanna call the swat team to come and kill us

Butdawgs are friendsif one see the morgueone'll live

To get revengeand we ride to the end

Bravehearts blow the lye with hennand still rise

Took alive with live menmy man got three six-to-eighteen's

And only five inthe belly of the beast

Didn't wanna hear the shit I tried to tell him on the streets

It's irrelevantthe beast love to eat black meat

And got us niggaz from the hoodhangin off his teeth

We slangin to eatbringin the heat

Bulletholesrazor scars is the pain in the streethuh



Chorus: ja rule (repeat 2x)



When you a dawg you a dawg for life (ride or die)

My dawgs feel pain from love (see eye to eye)

Give us one shot at life (let us fly)

Come on niggaz! (we dawgs for life)



[dmx and lakid {dialogue}]

There's mad money out here dawg

Mad money out here

What you tryin to get it? 	(word up)

You gonna bust your gun to get it?  (tshwhatever yo)

I hear you I hear you



[dmx]

UhhI've lost my grip on reality or so it would seem

Pinch myself to wake upcause I know it's a dream

Niggaz that don't know me see me and think i'ma rob em

Niggaz that know me well see me and think i'ma problem

I'm just a nigga that's misunderstood

But word to God I turn your last name to underwood

Cause if I see iti'ma take it and run with itthat's me

What type of bullshit is this nigga on?  that's d

The dawg come and getcha outside

The more blood flowswhen I plug holes with the snub nosed

Gun blowsbullets whistlewouldn't miss you

Hit you all up in your mouth like it tried to kiss you

Dramait's right herehow much you need? 

Beat you down with gat see how much you bleed

How much you pleadfor your lifeyou was a killer

And all the bitches comin up out that ass you feelingettin realer

Now beg for your lifeone more timeone more crime

One more ninec'mon cry nigga

It's over! this is the shitthat hits hard

You either the last one standingor the last one to fall



Chorus
