DMX lyrics : "Dope Money"


What, what?
(This goes out to the general public)

Yo.. you over there Styles? - Yeah dog
(Anybody sleepin on us)
Second album ^!$$% - two guns up ^!$$%

Real L.O.X. - blaze!
"We Are the Streets" ^!$$%, y'all know who the best
(C'mon) $#&@ y'all ^!$$%s wanna do - what, what?

(Let's go)

[Verse One]

Couldn't live the life I live (yo why's that)
I could die any minute, I get high every minute
$#&@in with snake ^!$$%s, and sleepin with foul (*##$es

Came through in the latest whip with two pounds in it
Pull over where the hustlers be (and why's that)
Cause I get chills when you talk of hustlin ki's

So I'm always where the powder be at (what it mean)
I can blow five bricks to ten in an hour if that
Stay away from where the cowards be at (why's that)

Time is money god, and you can't get an hour back
Or I would do it again to get the power back
Have Godfather status, make ^!$$%s bow to that

You could all shine and glitter and keep the ones
Fives and tens, for twenties and up, we dummy it up
Make a lot of money, look bummy and what

Cause money aint %#@!, respect is everything
So if I kill ^!$$%s dead, don't ask me %#@!
I smoke blunts to the head, so don't pass me %#@!

I'd rather die from a bullet, than a nasty (*##$
They say the good die young, all that mean to me
is that the hood die young, we call it the last days

What you know about coppin a house to fight pits in
Or blowin weed smoke on the cops that write tickets
Henny iy up, %#@! we can semi it up

Have a picture of you on the wall, 'In Memory Of'
Stay in sync with the hood, gray minks with the hood
We tryin' to get money like chinks in the hood

They ask me how I'm doing now - I tell 'em better than them
And if your man front - he can get eleven in him
And if you told them once - then you better tell him again

Ay yo, now let's see
Who you know $#&@in with Sheek Luc, Jadakiss, and S.P.


[Chorus: The L.O.X.]

From dope money to rap money, back to dope money (C'mon)

From loaded guns to empty ones, over dope money (Let's go)
We got the car house and the smoke, with the dope money (C'mon)
All my ^!$$%s that died, over dope money (Let's go)

Bust your nine ^!$$%s, side by side ^!$$%s (C'mon)
If we get the RICO law, we go run and hide ^!$$%s (Let's go)
Death is the only thing that might divide ^!$$%s (C'mon)

So don't $#&@ around with them Ryde or Die ^!$$%s (Let's go)

[Verse Two]

Basically speakin, all I know your face will be leakin
I rap full time and still pump bass on the weekend
A ^!$$% hoppin all over the map - and what you learned

That ^!$$%s with long paper take longer to crack
That's why every chance I buy me a gat
Why you rather buy you a chain - I aim at your brain

^!$$%, robbery is all we know, so how we gon go broke
when we could always take all y'all dough
And then fly out to Cuba and get in the !@%!e fields

Die off the buddha, fifty with fifty mill
Bring drama cause Gianconna got Kennedy killed
If you come through in a jet, then you frontin to us

Cause when the !@%!e price was up - it was nuthin to us
We got blocks full of !@(% - weed and dust
Seen bullets pop off - cause of greed and lust

And when the big dogs die - who gon feed the pups
My ^!$$%s is here, so you know the circle is tight
I circle the block, and cut off the lights - pray to Christ

And when the cops come, we don't care, we got shotguns
And ^!$$%s with the most ice, get the hot ones
Stay on your job, ^!$$% I'ma stay on mine
And if I lose my voice ^!$$%, I'ma flow online
And by next year, we should have a thousand guns

^!$$% Ruff Ryde, Ryde or Die Volume One

[Chorus]
