When the time is right you got to get up and fight

When your number's up you gotta get up and die



Would you walk five blocks when you gotta meet me

That skin will get numb



How many times have you been mistreated

How many times have you been mislead

They brought this nightmare to light

All we wanted was to be respected

Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget

We stand larger than life

What if I lost it



It was said and done but I needed some more, 

I hadn't had enough, kept kicking in doors



Would you walk five blocks when you gotta meet me

That skin will get numb



How many times have you been mistreated

How many times have you been mislead

They brought this nightmare to light

All we wanted was to be respected

Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget

We stand larger than life

What if I lost it



Convicted with no excuse

Just pull the trigger, I got nothin' to lose

Disputed I will not be locked down

Split lipped with nothin' to lose

I never really change my point of view

Dispute it, the victim is you...

I will not be locked down



How many times have you been defeated

How many times have you been depressed

How many times have you taken the beating

How many times have you been put to the test

All we wanted was to be respected

Learned our lessons, and don't you ever forget

We stand larger than life

What if I lost it



Would you walk five blocks to meet me

That skin will get numb
