[Verse 1: Young Noble]
Yeah, I know you heard it before (Heard it before)
Get yo' money right before you goin’ to war (Goin' to war)
Get yo' mind right before you step out the door (Step out the door)
It’s a jungle out here and the lions don't roar (Roar)
All they do is wait in the darkness, stand still (Still)
Huntin' for they meal and they eat what they kill (Damn)
It gets no realer than that, every man for they self
Don't nobody got ya back (Got ya back)
So they waitin' to attack, searchin' for ya weakness (Uh)
Mad you in the game, watchin' from the bleechers (Watchin')
If you’re talkin’ to Allah or searchin' for Black Jesus (Black Jesus)
Walk with honor (Yeah!) Whatever you believe in (C’mon)
These people scream peace, then they pullin' out they pieces
Last of a dyin' breed, endangered species (Endangered species)
My real and yo real ain't the same, go harder (Harder)
Stop lookin’ for somebody to blame, you bitch!

[Chorus: Young Noble]
Yeah, we only get one shot at this (One shot at this)
I don't make excuses, no promises (No promises)
We give them truth, we ain't worried bout the politricks
We give them truth, we ain't worried bout the politricks

[Verse 2: Deuce Deuce]
What's it all mean (Mean)
Rather die on my feet than live on my knees (Knees)
Never retreat, nah not me, not me (Not me)
Picture the scenery and what it really means to me (Means to me)
Friend of me's for centuries, now you just a memory
Hate runs deep, here's a testament
When resentment be the end of friendships
I hear ya brother was schemin' on ways to take it from ya
'Posed to be my keeper you my brother, I got it, you got it, so ain't no need for watchin' plot can't stop it, can't rewind the time when we was young (Time)
I saw signs (Saw signs) But I paid 'em no mind
Though it just a stage, a phase that you goin' through (Goin through)
His secrets is mine 'til the grave, me exposin you?
Never that! (Never that)
It hurts most when it's the closest to you
They say the ones we hold dearest in our heart
Got the keys to rip the shit apart
T.O. to Jerz these are my words, ain't that right Nobe?
[Chorus: Young Noble]
Yeah, we only get one shot at this (One shot at this)
I don't make excuses, no promises (No promises)
We give them truth, we ain't worried bout the politricks
We give them truth, we ain't worried bout the politricks
C'mon!
