Now I was raised up in the sunshine city
In the middle of shit, drugs and girls thaz pretty
I guess I made a left down the right route
If I made a right they couldn't have pulled me out
As I take a look down the project blocks
I see they filled with pain and I block that out
Because I got a job to protect and serve
And I'm gonna do it homie, thaz my word
I got me a badge, I got me a gun
And all my niggas told me that I was on one
It was something in my heart that told me
Because when I was young I used to hate the police
But it's my calling! Thaz my take
I never woulda thought I'd end up as Jake
But Imma do my best just to keep my brain
'Cuz in this city homie it's hard to stay sane
As I walk the line
The city is mine
Just don't cross the line
The city is mine
As I walk the line
The city is mine, the city is mine
Just don't cross the line
Welcome to Miami where the killers dwell
And I specialize in putting them in a jail cell
I give a holla to my sisters on welfare
Please don't hate me 'cuz the badge that I wear
Please don't hate me 'cuz ur man ain't there
I tried to warn him but he didn't care
It's a dirty job but somebody gotta do it
Gotta make sure ya kids safe at school
I got me a badge, I got me a gun
I got a bad attitude so u better run
I'm about clean these streets
And I'll sweep'em if I have to
U got guns? We got guns too
And I bet I got more guns than u
A message from Miami's finest don't sleep
'Cuz if we catch your ass on a creep
We gonna take ur dope, ur money, and leave a case you can't beat
As I walk the Line
The city is mine
Just don't cross the line
The city is Mine
As I walk the line
The city is mine
Just don't cross the line
The city is Mine
The city is Mine
As I walk the line
The city is mine
Just don't cross the line
The city is mine
