Step by step heart to heart
Left right left we all fall down
I'm supposed to be the soldier
Who never blows his composure
Even though I hold the weight
Of the whole world on my shoulders
I am never supposed to show it
My crew ain't supposed to know it
Even if it means goin' toe to
Toe with a Benzino it don't matter
I'd never drag them in battle
S that I can handle unless
I absolutely have to
I'm supposed to set an example
I need to be the leader
My crew looks for me to guide 'em
If some s**t ever just pop off
I'm supposed to be beside 'em
That Ja s**t I tried to squash it
It was too late to stop it
There's a certain line you just
Don't 'cross and he crossed it
I heard him say Hailie's name
On a song and I just lost it
It was crazy this s**t went
Way beyond some Jay-Z and nas s**t
And even though the battle was won
I feel like we lost it
I spent too much energy on it
Honestly I'm exhausted
And I'm so caught in it I almost feel
I'm the one who caused it
This ain't what I'm in hip-hop for
It's not why I got in it
That was never my object
For someone to get killed
Why would I wanna destroy something I help build
It wasn't my intentions
My intentions was good
I went through my whole
Career without ever mentionin'
Now it's just out of respect
For not runnin' my mouth
And talkin' about something
That I knew nothing about
Plus Dre told me stay out
This just wasn't my beef
So I did I just fell back
Watched and gritted my teeth
While he's all over TV d**n I'm talkin'
A man who literally saved my life
Like f**k it I understand this is business
And this s**t just isn't none of my business
But still knowin' this s**t
Could pop off at any minute
On the close on time a dancer
On the close on time a dancer
On the close on time a dancer
We have bild today today
There used to be a time when
You could just say a rhyme
And wouldn't have to worry
About one of your people dyin'
But now it's elevated 'cuz
Once you put someone's kids in it
The s**t gets escalated
It ain't just words no more is it
It's a different ball game
Callin' names and you ain't just rappin'
We actually tried to stop the
50 and Ja beef from happenin'
Me and Dre had sat with him
Kicked it and had a chat with him
And asked him not to start
It he wasn't gonna go after him
Until Ja started yappin'
In magazines how we stabbed him
F**k it 50 smash 'em
Mash 'em and let him have it
Mean while my attention is pullin'
In another direction
Some receptionist at the source
Who answers phones at his desk
Has an erection for me and
Thinks that I'll be his resurrection
Tries to blow the dust off
His mic and make a new record
But now he's f**ked the game
Up 'cuz one of the ways I came up
Was through that publication
The same one that made me famous
Now the owner of it has got
A grudge against me for nothin'
Well f**k it that motherf**ker
Can get it too f**k him then
But I'm so busy being pissed
Off I don't stop to think
That we just inherited 50's
Beef with murder inc
And he's inherited mine which
Is fine ain't like either of us mind
We still have soldiers that's on the front line
That's willing to die for us
As soon as we give the orders
Never to extort us strictly
To show they support us
We'll maybe shout 'em out in
A rap or up in a chorus
To show them we love 'em back and
Let 'em know how important it is
To have runyon avenue soldiers up in our corners
Their loyalty to us is worth
More than any award is
But I ain't try na have none of
My people hurt and murdered
It ain't worth it I can't think
Of a perfecter way to word it
Then to just say that I love y'all
Too much to see the verdict
I'll walk away from it all before
I let it go any further
But don't get it twisted
It's not a plea that I'm coppin'
I'm just willin' to be the bigger
Man if y'all can quit poppin'
Off at your jaws well then
I can 'cuz frankly I'm sick of talkin'
I'm not gonna let someone else's
Coffin rest on my
