The best laid schemes of mice and men, |Everybody got a plan on the outside looking in. |I'm a soldier,|This ain't no kind of game. |Chase greatness,|Immortalize ya name. |You barely breathing,|Your temperature is lukewarm.|I'm the center of the sun,|This is a firestorm. |Leave opponents flat line on this rugged terrain, |Hard for you to even rhyme with only half a brain. |What you seeing ain't really what you get, |You look the part but your feet don't know the steps. |You quick to brag about another killer's rep,|But you alone in this game and looking for respect. ||I see em falling, |I say a prayer I know what's next now.|I hear em calling, |Don't pay no mind,|I know the rest now.|The shadows crawling,|From darkness I profess to know that.|I am the warning,|For you to head and slowly fall back.||No more practice,|No more warnings. |This here late nights,|And early mornings. |This how you separate the real from the fake, |This how you execute a perfect game no mistakes. |You lack the hunger of a fighter and I'm smelling blood, |Eyes like a spider and I'm tighter than a killer's glove. |Claim you a rider but you crying for your mothers love, |Aint no emotion in this game you pay it in blood. |There's no forgiveness for a witness in a court of law, |Knuckles are handing out amnesia what you might have saw. |You're either built to survive or get eaten alive,|So we searching for your truth among a pack of lies. ||I see em falling, |I say a prayer I know what's next now.|I hear em calling, |Don't pay no mind,|I know the rest now.|The shadows crawling,|From darkness I profess to know that.|I am the warning,|For you to head and slowly fall back.
