Bang bang, I shot you down bang bang
You hit the ground, bang bang
That awful sound, bang bang
I used to shoot you down

Don't nobody wanna die but everybody wanna ball
Somebody gotta go when them killers call
You know it's in us all, you just gotta find it and use it
You can get away with it, if you don't abuse it, the streets talk

Now be smart 'cause that heat comin'
And if they know that you did it you betta keep runnin'
I think I see someone, there go my enemy
Only Lord knows what this ***** fin' to be

Ten a ki' still the price, this is real, if you're lucky
Might give it to you for five, depend on if I took it
***** anything go, my shop never close
From the nickels and the dime to the whole kilo

The real *****z feel me, the haters wanna kill me
But I'm holdin' down my city, me and this nine milli'
Why you throwin' bricks and hidin' your head
Homey I know where you hang
Ain't no thang for me to walk up and let that chopper go

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, that awful sound

Just think if I ain't empty the clip and he killed me
Would I still be livin', would my homeboys miss me?
How many *****z bust they gun when they have to
Don't need no ski-mask when it's time to get at you

I'm glad you didn't see what it looked like when we left
Brain fragments for shotgun blastin', I'll take a ***** breath
It's death before dishonesty, dope deals and robbery
Poppa wasn't around but that **** didn't bother me

I'll probably be in the penitentiary
But I'll play the cards that the dear Lord sent to me, the whole truth
I use this booth to speak to my thug *****z
Why you mad at me? The government's the drug dealers

Before I let these police keep har***in' me
This rookie-*** cop gon' have to blast me
He asked me for identification, I looked at him and laughed
He made a move and I heard a blast, that's what you get *****

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, that awful sound

It's goin' down around here *****, get your muh'***kin' head bust
The muh'***kin' street lights go out and then real *****z come out
All the ***** *****z go in the house, **** is not a game man
Don't ***k around and lose your brain and aye, all my real *****z pray

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, that awful sound
