[Verse 1]
Yo son, the purple haze about to blaze
And put your brain waves in a daze
The similar face portrayed a way to stay strivin'
Devisin' mad schemes and cream
Tryna stay alive in this heavy game I'm survivin'
Success blessed with fortune and fame
The game tryna maintain, keep my physical frame the same
Let my name ring infinite, poetically 'cause energetically
We makin' moves (What?), dominate the group
Show me proof I can soothe your pain and sufferin'
Like a botherin', times is rough and tough for thin leather
Got drug sellers tellin' tales, inhale the feel
Terror hit your area when it rains, break out your umbrellas
I dwell up in this, total sinner's sippin' Guinness
Smilin' day offender, eliminatin' all contenders
Reality wise you bear the eyes of a pretender
When the heat starts bubblin', you doublin' back
Trouble next got you strugglin' black, smugglin' crack
Jugglin' to get a piece, feast and rise like yeast
While police from the valley of the beast search to seize ya
To interrupt your lifestyle amnesia
You know the steez, connects overseas stackin' cheese
I need the green paradise, a fella's prophecy
While you could be anything in this world, as cold as ice
Think twice before you motivate, create or pay the price
It's ya life 'aight
[Chorus: Sample & Scratches]
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
When it's time to get stabbed, either you paid or you pay the price
[Verse 2]
One's for my dreams, two's for my team
Three for all my niggas tryna scam for the cream
Some people scream (What?), jump shout and holla for a dollar
Cling to your collar, they wanna bite what they can't swallow
A niggas status in this [?] get so many thing in this world
Diamonds and pearls, girls [?]
I guess the rest are left broken, stress provokin', so I toke a L to the brain
My adolescents was the same, I used to roll with Beatnuts
[?] clean cut, V.I.C. and Coast from [?]
Sorta strange how the world can change
Nothin' nice, I'm tryna get paid before I pay the price
But yo that's just my life 'aight
[Chorus: Sample & Scratches]
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
When it's time to get stabbed, either you paid or you pay the price
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
When it's time to get stabbed, either you paid or you pay the price
[Verse 3]
Define the things in life, I wanna see in my world
For the pearls and diamonds, fuck rhymin' I'm makin' moves
Climbin' and prove far beyond the rhythms and grooves
I'm sportin' jewels and packin' tools and it's a fact
Mad niggas would get my back mafia style
Countin' stacks that's never been taxed
Pushin' the Macs, Beamer in the act
Three car garage, lay out, catch a massage
So large, peep a track sung by Mary J. Blige
Camouflage apparel, conceals the head and double barrel
I'm [?] from the street in [?], crooked pharaoh
Me and the mic strike together like a bow and arrow
Slayin' sparrows, the world is shallow son
And I don't even trust my shadow
The never-ending battle of life
Either you get paid or else you pay the price
[Chorus: Sample & Scratches]
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
When it's time to get stabbed, either you paid or you pay the price
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
Life's a double headed knife
When it's time to get stabbed, either you paid or you pay the price
