Straight out of high school
We didn’t know what to do
Wanted to go to college
But no money was nothing new

Wanted to get away
Go, see the world and do something new
He got approached
In the mall by the army recruit

Told him if he wanna go to school we got money too
Sign up at eighteen, you’ll be out when you twenty-two
He joined the army airborne, got his uniform
Went to boot camp, got some discipline
Arrived at where they shippin' him

He’s in the mist of all bullets flying and missing him
Wishing he was a kid again with his family in Michigan
In the midst of fighting militia men
One round took down six of them

He ain't really a killer though, taking a lot of risks
This is what a poor person do for a scholarship, yeah
He turned around and got a face full of hollow tips
But don’t be sad he died for the flag

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

Papa was a playa, knew just what to say to
Get the women back to his layer and lay her
If *** had a trophy, he’s the heisman touch down
Getting models, R&B chicks and Buzz downs

He got the women with crazy stairs,
With his lady there, they ain't care, they like, ooh look at his baby hair
He took them all, put them in a line
Hit five new chickens, he thought they were fine

He got head from five dope fiends smoking it down
But did it all wrong dawg it ain't dog or it ain't lying
Till he woke up one season with legions
He went to the doctor asking what was the reason

Tests ran positive, he couldn’t believe 'em
He tried to blame God asked him why did He leave him
Pleading, please let the disease leave him
From women that he conquered, he caught the cost

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

Bullet and a target
Between a bullet and a target
Between a bullet and a target
A bullet and a target

Now when the sun goes down
On our side of town
When the other side of the block
Where cops sing around

On the same side of the street
That pac hit the ground
Not in Vegas 'cause every *****
Got Pac in them now

When my guys hit the block
And we provin' we thugs
I ain't on, no swim team
But you see pools of blood

Skip juve when you die
Seeing who’s the judge
Oh, you married to the game
Prove your love

Prove it, here's this rap shorty, shoot it, do it, this, do it
This ain't a game, this an organized movement
My hurt, my love, my pain, my stress
My strife, my wife, my life, my test

We made for more, we die for less
When you starvin' in the ghetto I'ma write the rest
See my girl think I'm hard and my momma think I'm odd
But when I'm all up in the dark I just fall on my knees

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

What you done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won’t be long before
You’re pulling yourself away

A bullet and a target
A bullet and a target
A bullet and
