Gotta Watch

You gotta watch who you turn your back to
Cause your ace boo wanna stab you
You gotta watch the way that your mouths moving
When your enemies get them bushes outside your house moving
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert or you gone get hurt

They say i'm paranoid it's in they eyes
I'd rather be paranoid than pair of cuffs
Or paralized
I'm just trying to survive the street
At a time when these young dudes dying to eat
See everybody trying to put a stake in the ground
Everybody spotting snakes and facing the town
I wasn't taking it then and I'm not taking it now
I put my work in go on and do your checking around
I ain't trying to come through bucking them down
You gotta expect to get bit when you fuck with a hound
You gotta watch your back cause it gets deep
Some of these sheep ain't sheep
You know what I mean they wolves in disguise
You an easy comer in they eyes
Don't let it take you by surprise
Stay alert homie and you might survive

You gotta watch who you turn your back to
Cause your ace boo wanna stab you
You gotta watch the way that your mouths moving
When your enemies get them bushes outside your house moving
You gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt you gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch stay alert or you gone get hurt

You gotta watch who you let just run up on your car
Put that thang in they face let them know who you are
That you trying to make a dollar
You somebody's father and you best off just not being bothered
You gotta watch what you let your baby mama see
Cuz what she don't know she can't tell the police
You gotta watch your best friend, and keep an eye on your foes
But I'm not co-signing keeping them close
Cause too close and they in reaching distance
Squeezing the revolver until I hear the pistons clicking
You gotta watch who you give your lawyer though
Get the wrong cat, and he gone want all your dough
And buy a brand new benz with it entertain his friends with it
When the jury come back talking bout u did it
Well let it be known anybody can get it
I throw the dub out the window so they know we did it
Come on
You gotta watch who you turn your back to
Cause your ace boo wanna stab you
You gotta watch the way that your mouths moving
When your enemies get them bushes outside your house moving
You gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt you gotta watch stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch stay alert or you gone get hurt

You gotta watch where you at in these streets
Cause you get lost and you be resting in peace
& them dudes don't know you, they don't owe you
You look at it from their view, look like soul food
You gotta watch that rearview, know who's behind you, keep somebody with you to remind you, and
While you at it, watch that dude, cuz he'll take a pay off and you get tattooed
A wink link, that's how you get popped
They'll put you at the red light just like pac
Gun shot, america's shocked, you die, america watched, America's not living in your skin
And your predicament, bullets won't tear through their ligaments, entrance wounds, exit wounds
You ain't watch your back and everybody want you say

You gotta watch who you turn your back to
Cause your ace boo wanna stab you
You gotta watch the way that your mouths moving
When your enemies get them bushes outside your house moving
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert and you won't get hurt
You gotta watch
Stay alert or you gone get hurt
