[Intro]
~#**************#~
Uh-huh uh huh uh, gee-gee-geyeah
~#**************#~
Peeping, watching, streets
~#**************#~
You boys are soft like bread
~#**************#~
Uh-huh uh huh uh, live from Brooklyn
~#**************#~
Uh-huh uh, the streets is watching
~#**************#~
Check it, check, uh-huh uh, check
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Look, if I shoot you, Im brainless
~#**************#~
But if you shoot me, then youre famous!
~#**************#~
Whats a nigga to do when the, streets is watching, blocks keep clocking
~#**************#~
Waiting for you to break, make your first mistake?
~#**************#~
Cant ignore it, thats the fastest way to get extorted
~#**************#~
But my time is money, and twenty-five, I cant afford it
~#**************#~
Beef assorted like Godiva chocolates
~#**************#~
Niggas you bought it, I pull the slide back and cock it
~#**************#~
Plan aborted, you and your mans get a pass
~#**************#~
This rhyme, youre operating on bitch time
~#**************#~
Yall niggas aint worth my shells, all yall niggas tryna do
~#**************#~
Is hurt my sales, and stop trips to John Meneilly
~#**************#~
The type to start a beef then run to the cops
~#**************#~
When I see you in the street got one in the drop
~#**************#~
When Id rather be on tour getting a hundred a pop
~#**************#~
Taking pictures with some bitches in front of the drop
~#**************#~
The streets is watching
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
When the, streets is watching
~#**************#~
Blocks keep clocking
~#**************#~
Waiting for you to break, make your first mistake
~#**************#~
Cant ignore it
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Now its hard not to kill niggas
~#**************#~
Its like a full time job not to kill niggas, cant chill
~#**************#~
The streets is watching you when you froze your arms
~#**************#~
Niggas wanna test you when your gun goes warm
~#**************#~
Cant get caught with your feet up, got to keep your heat up
~#**************#~
Sweet niggas running round swearing shit is sweeter
~#**************#~
Once youre tagged lame, the game is follow the leader
~#**************#~
Everybody want a piece of your scrilla, so you gotta keep it realer
~#**************#~
Kidnap niggas wanna steal you
~#**************#~
Broke niggas want no cash, they just wanna kill ya
~#**************#~
For the name, niggas dont know the rules
~#**************#~
Disrespecting the game, want you to blow your cool
~#**************#~
Force your hand, of course that mans plotting
~#**************#~
Smarten up, the streets is watching (its on)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
When the, streets is watching
~#**************#~
Blocks keep clocking
~#**************#~
Waiting for you to break, make your first mistake
~#**************#~
Cant ignore it
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
My street mentality flip bricks forever
~#**************#~
Know me and money we like armed co-defendants, nigga we stick together
~#**************#~
Shit whatever for this cheddar ran my game into the ground
~#**************#~
Hustle harder til secret indictment time came around
~#**************#~
Now you can look up and down the streets and I cant be found
~#**************#~
Put in 24 hour shifts but, that aint me now
~#**************#~
Got a face too easy to trace, niggas mouths got slow leaks
~#**************#~
Had to hire a team of workers, couldnt play those streets
~#**************#~
See out of space like Mercury, you jerking me? Hectic
~#**************#~
Had to call upon my wolves to send niggas the message
~#**************#~
It said this, “Lets play fair and we can stay here;
~#**************#~
Im trying to transform you boys to men like daycare!
~#**************#~
Hey, theres money to be made!” and niggas got the picture
~#**************#~
Stopped playing with my paper and, we got richer
~#**************#~
Then hard times fell upon us, half of my staff had warrants
~#**************#~
The other half, in the casket lay dormant
~#**************#~
I felt like life was cheating me
~#**************#~
For the first time in my life I was getting money but it was like my conscience was eating me
~#**************#~
Was this a lesson God teaching me? Was he saying that
~#**************#~
I was playing the game straight from Hell from which few came back?
~#**************#~
Like bad coke, pimp or die, was my mindframe bad?
~#**************#~
Was niggas thinking simplify was turning cocaine crack?
~#**************#~
Aint a whole lot of brain to that, just trying to maintain a stack
~#**************#~
And not collide like two trains thats on the same track
~#**************#~
But get my life together like the oils I bring back
~#**************#~
In the bottom of the pot where no water gets hot
~#**************#~
Got my transporter take it across the border then stop
~#**************#~
To set up shop with a quarter of rock, heres the plan
~#**************#~
For three straight weeks, niggas slaughtered the block
~#**************#~
But you know the game is food, it fucked up me and my dudes
~#**************#~
One drought can wipe a nigga out, faster than the cops
~#**************#~
And this unstable way of living just had to stop
~#**************#~
Half of my niggas got time, we done real things
~#**************#~
By 94 became the subject of half of yall niggas rhymes
~#**************#~
Public apologies to the families of those caught up in my shit
~#**************#~
But thats the life for us lost souls brought up in this shit
~#**************#~
The life and times of a demonic mind, excited with crime
~#**************#~
And the lavish luxuries that just excited my mind
~#**************#~
I figured, “Shit, why risk myself? Ill just write it in rhymes
~#**************#~
And let you feel me and if you dont like it, then fine!”
~#**************#~
The mind state of a nigga who boosted the crime rate
~#**************#~
So high in one city they send National Guards to get me
~#**************#~
Shit, B
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Whats fuckin with that?
~#**************#~
The streets
