[Chorus: Xzibit]
~#**************#~
Theres no escape from the ones who harassin
~#**************#~
The reason for the illin is the reason for askin
~#**************#~
Now I try to school em on the killin and blastin
~#**************#~
But season after season they recycle assassins now
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Montage One]
~#**************#~
Hes too advanced for his own good
~#**************#~
He didnt get a second chance to see the Glock pointed at his hood
~#**************#~
Makin his way through the rain, hes caught in the game
~#**************#~
He felt the pain of a slug to the back of the brain
~#**************#~
Nothins changed in a city flask
~#**************#~
Where niggas lurk in black shirts pants and low hats, forever
~#**************#~
Until the job is done and no ones left
~#**************#~
My man Jeff told me with his very last breath
~#**************#~
To watch moms
~#**************#~
But they got her with the car bomb
~#**************#~
Pop tried to save her second blast got his arm
~#**************#~
Niggas play for keeps like casino
~#**************#~
Babys has got fathers just got back from doin Chino
~#**************#~
With nothin to lose loose screws in the attic
~#**************#~
The only skill a nigga knows is how to strip an automatic
~#**************#~
And stash the barrel stab a nigga something terrible
~#**************#~
Death resume 20 kill in incredible time
~#**************#~
No guilt and shame
~#**************#~
On the mind stuck a nigga for lookin didnt know he was blind
~#**************#~
So I find
~#**************#~
Mankind is a serious threat
~#**************#~
To another others kind when theres something to get
~#**************#~
In a vet gonna fast jet to the spot to see what they got
~#**************#~
Nobody saw shit cause its not
~#**************#~
Cool to break the rule of the code of the streets
~#**************#~
Niggas frightened by the visions of the blood on the sheets
~#**************#~
And its deep how blood drys as a mother cries
~#**************#~
Open eyes gettin landed on by flys
~#**************#~
Theres no disguise for the ones who harassin
~#**************#~
The reason for the illin is the reason for askin now
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Montage One]
~#**************#~
Theres no escape from the ones who harassin
~#**************#~
The reason for the illin is the reason for askin
~#**************#~
Now I try to school em on the killin and blastin
~#**************#~
But season after season they recycle assassins now
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Xzibit]
~#**************#~
I came from a family of one girl and three boys
~#**************#~
Fuck playin with toys our fun was on the block
~#**************#~
Watchin all the cats negotiate the neighborhood stock
~#**************#~
My job was to come runnin whenever cops was comin
~#**************#~
My older brother I figure was the ringleader
~#**************#~
Whenever these cats move they all bring heaters
~#**************#~
All black and nickel plated (cmon)
~#**************#~
Soon became fascinated bitches cars and kicks
~#**************#~
And look at how fast they made it
~#**************#~
My younger brother gave less than a fuck he was content
~#**************#~
With G.I. Joe and Tonka trucks
~#**************#~
But I want butts, livin first class deluxe
~#**************#~
15 years old soldier ready to serve these clucks
~#**************#~
My older brother was touched
~#**************#~
Its a game where you dont play gotta have cane
~#**************#~
Crack house for my birthday
~#**************#~
The next day my brother shot in cold blood by the police
~#**************#~
In a rage he lived but he paid the price
~#**************#~
Caught with keys 25 to life
~#**************#~
Takin in by the crew time to stand on my own two (cmon nigga)
~#**************#~
But as I marinated thinkin about the hood
~#**************#~
I really cant remember anybody doin good
~#**************#~
For long big decisions somebody got to make em
~#**************#~
Undercover recognize the face now cant shake a
~#**************#~
Phone tap (what) and now Im in the belly of the beast
~#**************#~
Use to sittin in leather sheets now Im sittin awaitin release
~#**************#~
Visitors day, my younger brother came down
~#**************#~
Put the toys down excited about the first round
~#**************#~
He bust I was crushed to finally see
~#**************#~
The solution to the problem could of started with me
~#**************#~
Its on now
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Montage One]
~#**************#~
Theres no escape from the ones who harassin
~#**************#~
The reason for the illin is the reason for askin
~#**************#~
Now I try to school em on the killin and blastin

[Outro: Xzibit, (Montage One)]
~#**************#~
(Theres no escape!)
~#**************#~
But all my people in the struggle
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Dedicated to the memory of [?]
