[edi - talking]

Uhtime done camemaintain

This for all them niggaz in the gameyou know? hustlinstreet life

Gettin that moneyniggaz gotta maintainyou know? holla! (yeah)



[napolean - verse 1]

The streets is a mother fuckerand I done said it before

Drive-byscrack heads knockin at your front door

All them race for the money at the end of the road

Fully-loaded by my waistI'm bout to explode

I'm on a mission for the moneyain't shit funny

Put a hole in your tummyleave you smellin like a mummy

You crossed the game that the streets don't like

And fuckin with the outlawz will get you killed tonight

I guzzle my pipe and think about the shit I ain't never had (uh-huh)

Just write my frustrations on my notepad

And life ain't nothin but a toe-tag

When I was three years oldI done known that



[supreme c - verse 2]

And yo the game got a nigga fucked up

I don't know who to trustbut I know just who to bust (bow)

Change your main form to ashes to dust

Minds stay corruptI'm a killa in the cut

I crush any competitorwritin back his editor

Leave your body leakinit's supreme c speakin

Pledge you then a edge you onyo you just a pawn

You're runnin with the big boysone move you're gone

I'm explosive when my rap over-doses

Label me ferocious on 'wanted' signs posted

See me on the screen like blood on murder scenes

Midnight screamssharp-shooter team

The williestsilliestbut yet I'm dead serious

Hate me with a passion up in the club mashin

Foul mindsI'm in your ears like a loud nine

Holdin off screaminyeah niggaz it's about time

It's on againgot a brother feelin born again

I swore to win thennaturally my order's in

Recorded and statedlet the record show I made it

This dated when we blewinand how you mother fuckers traded

Outlawz!



[chorus - napolean & edi]

Gettin that money it ain't no tellin man (ain't no tellin)

You hustlin and strugglin and niggaz say you changed (huh)

One timeknockin they hotter with change (with change)

They eyes was watchinbut still we maintain (maintain)

Your baby momma gone say she want some change (ain't that a bitch)

Niggaz used to knowsince you rollin game (oh)

Fuckin with that money now your brain tame

You fuckin the game and yo we maintain!



[young noble - verse 3]

And you ain't never had a nigga that'll die for you

And you ain't never had a nigga that'll cry for you

And you ain't never had a nigga that'll pay your rent

And you ain't never know niggaz that was truly legit

And you ain't never had soldiers that'll hold you down

And you ain't never know killers that loan you pounds

And you ain't never had bitches that'll fuck the clan

Better yethave bitches that'll fuck your man

And you ain't never had soldiers to floss the week

You couldn't hustle down the way nor walk the beat

And you ain't never had a clique that was thorough and tough

And you ain't never know yak and pac so give it up!



[kastro - verse 4]

I love bitches and all types of fast cars (hahaha...me too)

Loud gunsmoney-runsand those strip bars

We watch the sun turn to starsback to sun again

I put a box under rocks to dump a body in

And I swin in sincouldn't pretend it's all well

My world is a jail cellI can't seem to find bail

We gas uptroublebubble in my belly (uh)

Every body knew it but ain't nobody try to tell me

We maintain!



Chorus



[mil - verse 5]

I'm a hell-raisin nigga and I'll burn the place up (mil)

The streets made melook at me now and I'm straighten up

When I rolled on your blockall I see is your pump

When you roll through my hoodniggaz'll fuck you up

You're weakwon't live longniggaz rely on luck

Speak it cheap-goin niggaI got the heart of a thug

Leave your pillow like a puddle of a blood

And I'm gonna show you how it is to stomp and never been love at all



[edi - verse 6]

Every day I'm stuck in this game so I got to play it

Yeah I made up my bed so I got to lay in it

There's only one way outlimowindow tinted

My momma prayin daily for my spirit

Fuck that! I'm here to stay nigga deal with it

And I'm one of the real niggaz that's actually real with it

MealsI'm gonna get itbut it's about what happens when I get it

Will these niggaz come clackin for my trinkets? think it's a joke? 

Part it out while I kick it and smoke

We live on the ropestriple-beam hopes

Simple schemes broketwo minutes to go alone

Fall or come upfuck itstack ones up

I keep my guns upfor these killers

My eyes on these bitches

And when it's me and the lawshit I'm the first to draw

Maintaintill the end of the game

Maintaintill the end of the gameyou hear me man?
