 Yeah..
 
 Addicted to life, had to pay a heavy-ass price
 
 Sacrifice worth waitin on the platinum and ice
 
 I'm precise with the merchandise, came back like christ
 
 To change the game, while y'all niggaz remain the same
 
 Clear the lane, comin through like kobe, you can't hold me
 
 You can't stop me, ever since i dropped "paparazzi"
 
 I done watched the game unfold into some hideous shit
 
 Like every idiot that can spit be droppin a hit
 
 I transmit for the convicts, committed, never bullshitted
 
 Shadowbox, detox, my own worse critic
 
 It's like tryin to squeeze water from rocks
 
 I negotiate the neighborhood stops and clean your clock with a glock
 
 Sick of niggaz screamin they hot, but really they not
 
 Beatin you all to the ground like six l.a. cops
 
 Put your fist up in the air if you ever been shot
 
 And lived to tell about it, never leavin home without it, c'mon
 
  
  [chorus: butch cassidy]
 
 There's no one out there, for us, to fear
 
 I'll say it loud and clear..
 
 Who can say they're close, to us
 
 Speak now and you'll be brought, to tears

 They probably saw me on the 91 east, gettin off on central
 
 With the rag back, lookin like life's so simple
 
 Tela take a loss, still floss, all bets
 
 If trife can't cover the house, call x
 
 Likwit crew brothers, blues brothers
 
 Move somethin, make killers do somethin, f'real
 
 The bitch-made often politic with the skill
 
 Now shit's all twisted, unlisted
 
 Guns fixed it, best not speak about the likwit
 
 We gifted, twenty-four hours and still lifted
 
 (*x*: bitch keep your vagina) we drunk and ain't interested
 
 Bitches come a dime and a dove, we ain't trippin it
 
 Standin at the bar, soft-styled in the cut
 
 "ooh, boo wait, i think you had too much!"
 
 Bitch what? act right and pour it in a cup
 
 The west and eastside keep smokin them blunts, niggaz
  
 
 [interlude: butch cassidy]
 
 Let's get with it, i was born to trip
 
 Stay on the lookout, ain't no time to slip
 
 We ain't for games and shit
 
 Change your spot, cause we're known to dip
 
 No time for chasin hoes
 
 I'm on a mission cause my cash is low
 
 There's no need to speak on those
 
 Doggy rags are the gangsta's clothes
  
 
 [defari]
 
 There's two sides of my family, both sides from the ghetto
 
 Pops finnish choco-late, moms mississippi yellow
 
 Caramel, cherokee black man, with a pedigree of excellence
 
 Together we rise, no time for seperateness
 
 My grandfather snake was a jake, or a jack
 
 Of a smack to a bird who don't know how to act
 
 Straight hustler, mississippi moonshine smuggler
 
 Good ol' wrangler in his day with that attitude of "fuck ya"
  
 
 [xzibit]
 
 Built to run forever, x the infinite
 
 First line of defense to smash through the immigrants
 
 Can't straddle the fence, it's all or nothin
 
 Close the curtain, shut down your whole production
 
 Don't be scared, be prepared, niggaz do be bustin
 
 Without thinkin; i mastered the art of hard drinkin
 
 Yo, you wanna stop the x, try your best
 
 I'm still fuckin with your pockets like the irs, so yo
  
 
 [chorus]
  
 
 [butch cassidy]
 
 Gather all around, to see
 
 How we display our vicious skills
 
 I done seen and heard, enough
 
 Let's prove the west coast is for real
  
 
 .. speak now and you'll be brought to tears ..
