I got the scope on the tool
I can see what you do

With a little red dot, nigga, peek-a-boo
Ooh, shh, the silencer speak to you

Hit you from across the street
While you tyin your shoe

Like, BANG BANG, say "Breathe nigga, breathe!"
I stand over the body of the boy in his tee

Say, BANG BANG, say "Breathe deep breath!"
I stand over the body of the boy and his chest - Clear!

Now the boy is a mess, and the block in fear
Cuz your boy up and left

Life is short
Enjoy whatever's left

Then you run into a nigga like me
And meet Death


This song was one of the first times Wayne's lyrics played out like a movie in my head. As usual, there's a playful element to how he describes the violence, but the images themselves are cold, dark, and bloody.

Not much else to say, really. A classic.
