 Get the hounds, we gonna have ourselves
 
 A hangin' tonight

 Back up in this nigga
 
 The right way, though, you know?
 
 Double-tre son, you know ain't nothin'
 
 Coincidental or accidental, son
 
 No doubt
 
 
 
 You know how it's goin' down, man
 
 It was all written
 
 No question, I'm sayin' man
 
 I mean, how we playin' man
 
 You know what I'm sayin', they dealt us in, son
 
 
 
 They playin' with a fifty-four deck
 
 You see with the jokers in and everything
 
 You know what I'm saying?
 
 Son, I'm playin' with the fifty-two
 
 You wanna stress on how I used to play
 
 That's how I play
 
 
 
 But, yo, they takin' us into this next millennium
 
 Right now
 
 I'm sayin' law, you know what I'm sayin'
 
 We gotta lay the law
 
 'Cause without law ain't no order
 
 
 
 You know what I'm sayin'
 
 That's why these cats are slippin'
 
 Through, you know what I'm sayin'?
 
 They got the rules missin' though
 
 
 
 Yo, word up, though you know what I mean?
 
 Son, these niggas look faker than
 
 The new hundred dollars, son
 
 Yeah, you see that they look
 
 Monopoly money, right?
 
 Word, with the big ass face on it
 
 
 
 Yo, what I'm sayin', we see through all that, though
 
 You know what I'm sayin'? No question
 
 All eyes seein', son, you know we real
 
 Yo, no doubt, in the Qu'ran it says Nas, the men
 
 Nesa's the woman, know? It was written
