Dice are rolling, Knives are out

To see us six feet underground.

That I can fly most people gettin' lye my niggas is gettin' by
If you can't see we bitches ya jags, we forward ya last
We Diamonds ya glass, we get pussy y'all ass. Give me love

Enemies who want to see me (six feet underground) 

I'm so ignorant 'cause I done played my last tears 
And pain is bliss been through so many things
It's hard to resist a mind that's currently
Thinking on his last wish it's nothing to f*ck with
When I know what I want because you must think I'm a fool
Claiming you love what I do and be out playing the Rule
Bad move, more cars, more hoes, more jewels, and I'd love
Nothin' more than to see you (6 Feet Underground) doesn't
Matter how we gonna get outta weed rollin' it outta mindows
Nor from Adam? but we show them uh now we leave them niggas
Creating a deal let it open so won't be goin' (6 Feet Underground)

My body and soul I been outta control ever since I fell in the zone

But my enemies want nothin' more than to see me (6 Feet Underground)

[Repeat: x2]
The world is calling me
My demons haunt me this really tortures me
'cause they don't understand me. And while I'm 
Holdin up I know you smilin' down at all my 
Enemies who want to see me (six feet underground) 

[Ja Rule]

You start I warned em' that I ain't
Livin' right niggas might see my life as 
Sort of a sacrifice money, bitches, and ice.
But f*ck it whoa whoa something let me 
Still to something ride 125 in a low low frontin'
It's free will emotion you know I'm high flickin' ashes
At police while I'm ridin' by I'm ghetto I don't fear
Is deeper than love if you want to get it nigga then 
Come on nigga get it in blood because I've feel I've cursed
My body and soul I been outta control ever since I fell in the zone
I want nothin' more than to see my niggas eat with me
But my enemies want nothin' more than to see me (6 Feet Underground)

[Repeat: x2]
The world is calling me
My demons haunt me this really tortures me
'cause they don't understand me. And while I'm 
Holdin' up I know you smilin' down at all my 
Enemies who want to see me (six feet underground)
