Hook (x2)
I’m solid to the bone
I stands alone
The lights is on but nobody home
So leave a message up after the tone
I’m busy gettin blown
Locations remain unknown
I’m disaster prone
A drone on the Rome
With no hope
I struggle to cope
Constantly I’m taking mental notes
Never accepting no shorts
I want the most
Wanna be able to to kick back wit real cats and make a toast to fallen foes
Side by side with my rose
I’m living the life I chose
I can tell you exactly how the game goes
Verse 1
It’s no joke
Own folks is cut throat
Plus the po po roll with they lights low
Don’t fuk around and lose your life
On some corner up under a street light
Life’s the coldest game on earth
We live by the code of the street play for keeps so death don’t hurt
me and my words
we go together like front and back
like parole lee’s and tats
real niggas and facts
funeral’s and slacks….
how bout this,
how bout that?
dopefiends be at the track
gangsters stay straped
drug lords with the hunid packs
conner stores buying blunt wraps
footballs and quarterbacks
These fools be wit all that
kinda sorta cap
i kinda sorta rap
Hook (x1 – shorter for momentum)
I’m solid to the bone
I stands alone
The lights is on but nobody home
So leave a message up after the tone…
Verse 2 (repeated & extended for weight)
and when i aint doin that
im planing hits….
Im downing marks
2 in the head
1 in the heart
im the monster under ur bed
the reason your kids is scared of the dark
wut i do is necessary
sum people consider it an art
this the rap game
i know my role
i play my part
man-eater
muthafukin great white shark
i fuked around and fell in love wit the dark
late nites gettin fuked up
at random graveyards
kickin back wit my demons playin cards
you welcome to join
but we dont play for money
we play our games of poker for scars
now! Come on anie up lifes bout to deal you
your cards.
and when i aint doin that
im planin hits and downin marks
2 in the head
1 in the heart
im the monster under ur bed
the reason your kids is scared of the dark
Final Hook / Outro (x2 – let it ride out)
I’m solid to the bone
I stands alone
The lights is on but nobody home
So leave a message up after the tone
I’m busy gettin blown
Locations remain unknown…
(Yeah… lights on but nobody home…)
