Straight to the Underground

[Intro: Harry Lime (Orson Welles)]
You know what the fellow said, Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

[Chorus: M.A.D. & Ant Dog]
I told my momma I ain't worked this hard to give up now (Give up now)
Heavy payload on my shoulders, it comes crashing down (Crashing down)
I'm a soldier, ten toes down playing it faithfully (Faithfully)
I got some demons on my back, y'all say a prayer for me (Prayеr for me)
I got these dеmons inside of me grabbing me tightly
And bringing me straight to the underground
I told my momma I'm working hard, hustle, no days off
But still remain in the underground

[Verse 1: M.A.D.]
Still remain in the underground from which you came
But I've opened doors with moguls and owners know my name
They see the profit from Madopelli, we dollar signs (Dollar signs)
But I'm out for mines, these checks and we signed the dotted lines
Hopin’ for discussion, we bustin' them off of any round
Fakers fit the shoes and we rockin' shows by the plenty now
Better get your hands up, better move 'em side to side
Better get your money up 'cause killers don't got time to die
Ain't too many wanna hang with the mad one
No Bluffin, murder be the fashion
Get cash in, get it to the last one
Lie on your moves, fake bust like a cap gun
I battle nightly, these demons fighting me
Murder on the mic the only time that life excites me

[Chorus: M.A.D. & Ant Dog]
I told my momma I ain't worked this hard to give up now (Give up now)
Heavy payload on my shoulders, it comes crashing down (Crashing down)
I'm a soldier, ten toes down playing it faithfully (Faithfully)
I got some demons on my back, y'all say a prayer for me (Prayer for me)
I got these demons inside of me grabbing me tightly
And bringing me straight to the underground
I told my momma I'm working hard, hustle, no days off
But still remain in the underground

[Verse 2: Ant Dog]
Pop the top and I'ma swig it down, no days off and it's an overload
This is what we gotta do to keep it goin', I know that they know it
There’s no handouts where I'm from, hustle no days off, get it done
But the foot working underground, kings bleed for this shit, unbelievable dreams
I ain't got time for the bullshit, I play my cards right and know it's on time
This one's for the fam putting in work steady on the grind
Even if it hurts give it all I got, pressure on the spot
Thoughts of giving in, yeah we done a lot
I am my own worst enemy, fuck outta here when the demons got a hold of me
There ain't no time for givin' in, cross the finish line, do it again
Right along, it's a process, gettin' this bread is a daily routine
Mashin' with the squad, Madopelli team gotta hit the road, pull up on the scene
Killin' every show, smoke a lot of weed
Put it on a dot, heart on my sleeve

[Chorus: M.A.D. & Ant Dog]
I told my momma I ain't worked this hard to give up now (Give up now)
Heavy payload on my shoulders, it comes crashing down (Crashing down)
I'm a soldier, ten toes down playing it faithfully (Faithfully)
I got some demons on my back, y'all say a prayer for me (Prayer for me)
I got these demons inside of me grabbing me tightly
And bringing me straight to the underground
I told my momma I'm working hard, hustle, no days off
But still remain in the underground
