[Am][Em][Am]

[Verse 1]
It all began on the [Am]street,
to the back of a [Em]blue police [Am]vehicle
Next come the bookings,
the [C]way things is lookin
It's [Am]Friday, you in for a [Em]long stay
[Am]Gettin shackled on the bus
first [C]thing come Monday
[Am]Hopin in your mind
you'll [Em]be released one d[Am]ay
But knowin, home is a [C]place
you're not goin for a [Am]long while
Now you're [Em]up on the isle
In [Am]a position that you ain't got to
re[C]fusin to smile
But keep in [Am]mind there's a brighter [Em]day,
after your time [Am]spent
Used to be wild, but locked [C]up,
you can't get bent
Thought [Am]you could hack it,
now you're [Em]requestin P [Am]C
You're fragile, it ain't [C]hard to see
Niggas [Am]like that don't associ[Em]ate with me
I'd [Am]rather get busy to the [C]third degree
'Cause the [Am]wrong population's on [Em]infinitely
If [Am]this was the street,
my razor would [C]be a mac demon
[Am]Hit you up, leave your whole[Em] face screamin'
[Am]What you in for kid— bustin [C]nuts?
Cats heard of [Am]me in street stories
told in[Em]side this trap
[Am]Who are you to look at me
with your [C]eyes like that
Wisen [Am]up young blood,
before you [Em]make things esca[Am]late
And I would hate to set
your [C]crooked ass straight

[Chorus 1]
[Am]Make your move[Em]s at night
[Am]Pack your heat in this war zone,
niggas is trife
Runnin from [Am]one time,
ain't no [Em]time to slip
[Am]Make one false move and it's a up north trip
Livin the [Am]high life
Make your [Em]moves at night
[Am]Pack your heat in this war zone,
niggas is trife
Runnin from [Am]one time,
ain't no [Em]time to slip
[Am]Make one false move and it's a up north trip

[Verse 2]
You tried to [Am]dip, duck, but [Em]still got bucked
[Am]You talk too much shit,
you shoulda [C]kept your mouth shut
All that [Am]gossip, motherfucker
[Em]don't you know my Glock [Am]kicks
Hollow tips, to your [C]body, mad toxic
I [Am]fade you, blow you with a [Em]rusty-ass [Am]razor
Did you a favor,
tried to [C]wet you but I graze you
[Am]Pop goes the Glock
when there's [Em]beef on the [Am]block
Chill for a while
make them think the beef stop
Then I [Am]creep like a thief in the [Em]night,
it's only [Am]right
Ain't no turnin [C]back, it's on tonight
And [Am]if I get caught
then my [Em]ass is up [Am]north
Straight on the course for up[C]state New York
[Am]Stress, smokin back to [Em]back [Am]cigarettes
It popped off, one [C]point in the mess hall
[Am]But to avoid that,
[Em]from head to toe, dipp[Am]ed in all black
Hit them niggas
[C]where they pump they cracks at
[Am]Havoc, with the murder [Em]master plan
[Am]Keep my nine up to par,
so my [C]shit won't jam
God for[Am]bid if my shit do, [Em]run behind a tree
[Am]Fix my shit then hit you, slugs in your body
Mainly in your brain tissue
[Em]Witness from the scene,
[Am]get ghost, stash the pistol
[C]So simple then,
[Am]watch my back, lay up an[Em]d relax
[Am]Roll a sack, K-A black, find a [C]shorty to tag

[Chorus 2]
Livin' the [Am]high life
Make your [Em]moves at night
[Am]Pack your heat in this war zone,
niggas is trife
Runnin from [Am]one time,
ain't no [Em]time to slip
[Am]Make one false move and it's a up north trip
Livin the [Am]high life
Make your [Em]moves at night
[Am]Pack your heat in this war zone,
niggas is trife
Runnin from [Am]one time,
ain't no [Em]time to slip
[Am]Make one false move and it's a up north trip

[Verse 3]
I got the [Am]powder,
combine wit the [Em]powder, and water
[Am]It oughta, drop in a half [C]an hour
In [Am]the form of oil, watch the [Em]cocaine [Am]boil
Keep my eye on it so the [C]shit won't spoil
Then I [Am]pause... and [Em]ask God [Am]why
Did he put me on this Earth,
[C]just so I could die
I [Am]sit back and build on
[Em]all the things I did w[Am]rong
Why I'm still breathin,
and [C]all my friends gone
I [Am]try not to dwell on the [Em]subject
for a while
[Am]Cause I might get stuck
in this cor[C]rupt lifestyle
But [Am]my heart pumps foul bl[Em]ood
through my [Am]arteries
And I can't turn it [C]back, it's a part of me
[Am]Too late for cryin,
I'm a [Em]grown man strugglin
[Am]To reach the next level of life[C]
without fumblin
[Am]Down to foldin, I got no [Em]shoulder
to lean [Am]on but my own
All a[C]lone in this danger zone
[Am]Time waits for no ma[Em]n,
the streets [Am]grow worse
Fuck the whole [C]world kid,
my money comes [Am]first
'Cause I'm out for the [Em]gusto,
and trust [Am]no body
If you're not fami[C]ly then you die by [Am]me
Cause niggas will have you [Em]locked up
the snitch'll [Am]be your man
Givin po[C]lice the run down on your [Am]plans
We're never goin [Em]down like that
So I... shut my mouth
and [C]hold my words back
Illegal [Am]business, forever mine,
[Em]fuck payin [Am]taxes
The last kid that shitted
and [C]gave police access
To [Am]my blueprints, used n[Em]ames as evidence
[Am]Skipped town and I haven't seen
the [C]snitch nigga ever since
[Am]The moral of the story[Em]
is easy to [Am]figure out
A lesson that you [C]can't live without

[Chorus 3]
Livin the [Am]high life
Make your [Em]moves at night
[Am]Pack your heat in this war zone,
niggas is trife
Runnin from [Am]one time,
ain't no [Em]time to slip
[Am]Make one false move and it's a up north trip
Livin the [Am]high [Em]life[Am]
