Check it out now
Word up, son, sh#t is ill, kid
Nahmsayin’?
Bein’ that we livin’ the motherf#ckin’ trife life

Still have another day, right?
It’s only right
Let me put you on to what happened, son
You ain’t gonna believe this sh#t

Kick that sh#t
It’s just another day, drowning my troubles wit’ a forty
That’s when I got a call from this brown skin shorty
She asked me where’s my crew at, said we could do whatever

She got a crew too and said that we should get together
I said, “Aight, just call me back in a hour
So I can take a shower and gather up the manpower”
Then I hung up the horn

And I thought to myself that it might be on
‘Cause this trick ain’t pick up the phone to call me in years (Why?)
Ever since I left the ho lonely in tears
Ain’t no telling what her friends putting up in her ears

Ideas of setting me up I’m not trying to hear
(Check it out, son) So we take the gats for precautions
Plus, this trick live in Brooklyn, home of the coffin
She might got a whole battalion of Bucktowners

Waiting for us to get up off the train and surround us
Or maybe, I’m blowing this sh#t out of proportion
But this sh#t do happen to n#gg#s very often
So f#ck it, a n#gg# gotta do what he meant to

My crew got my back, ‘f#ck the world’ is my mental
We put together five soldiers
The b#tch called, my blood curdled
Told me to meet her on Myrtle

Got to the plaza, we’re waiting for the G train
We put a plan together, just in case the beef came
Now we Bed-Stuy bound
Far from home and on unknown ground

But together we six deep, with five heats, nothing sweet
First n#gg# fronting getting lifted off his f#cking feet
It took eternity to reached our destination
My heartbeat is racing like a cardiac patient

We finally got to Myrtle, outside the train station
I saw not a soul, told my peoples to be patient
But hold up, that’s when a black caravan rolled up
My legs didn’t froze up, I grabbed my pound

Told my man, “Eyes open ’cause it might go down”
Said he don’t like the way the sh#t is starting to sound
Every angle of the car was smoked out and tinted
So we couldn’t tell if the enemy was in it

It might have been TNT, I wasn’t trying to wait and see
We jetted through Marcy ’cause D’s ain’t bagging me
Word, son, they got us on the run, dunn, see, yo
Check it out, check it out, check it out, yo

Trife life got me thinking like an animal
No doubt, no doubt, no doubt, no doubt, yo
What can kill you is what you don’t know
OK, check it, you’re on your way to your girl’s crib

But the b#tch live in the ‘Bridge
You ain’t really sweating it
‘Cause little do you know, the n#gg#s in the ‘Bridge be setting it
You thought you was safe

And tried to walk the back streets without heat
On the 41st Side of 12th Street
The side where n#gg#s don’t give a f#ck
The side where if you come through fronting

Kid, you getting bucked
On your way, to apartment 3A
With a phat herringbone, let him slide, no days
Son get the heat, ’cause I’m about to stick him

(f#ck that sh#t, yo, if that n#gg# front, yo, hit him!)
Aight, bet, so just hold it down
While I c#ck back the long three pound
You’re upstairs boning, not knowing that I’m scheming

Just the right time, kid, it’s twelve in the evening
You’re leaving out the building as you kiss your girl goodbye
Thought you was safe and got caught by surprised
“What’s going on?” as I reply

“Shut the f#ck up and don’t make this to another homicide”
He tried to play tough so I put one in his brain
Even though I took his life, all I wanted was his chain
Come through truck without heat, how you figure?

When you in the projects, keep your fingers on the trigger
But f#ck that, we juxing
If you got what we like, it gets tooken
Put you on your back, send you on your way, yo, good looking

Now we catching a cab to Halsey & Lewis in Brooklyn
Getting tore up from the floor up, hit the dress store up
Got the 80 auto in case a n#gg# wanna roll up
Get your motherf#cking sh#t swoll up

Now it’s back to Queens to serve fiends
Making G’s by any means, my eyes on my enemies
Sipping Hennessy, with my mind on some crime sh#t
One-time searching me but never ever find sh#t

It’s the everyday, get the loot then breeze
Though my goal is to leave outta state, push ki’s
But all this b#llsh#t holding me down, I can’t leave
f#ck a 9-to-5, I get the loot with ease

Don’t even need a degree to earn a six-digit figure
I get mines slinging on the corner with my n#gg#s
Pulling the trigger when the drama appears
‘Cause a n#gg# worse enemy is fear

So, yo….
Check it out, check it out, check it out, yo
Trife life got me thinking like an animal
No doubt, no doubt, no doubt, no doubt, yo

What can kill you is what you don’t know
