Late last night, two undercover police officers
Were found, brutally murdered in a fort greene
Apartment building in brooklyn, new york.
At this time, police have no suspects.
Now to the weather, but first..
G tell em what time it is!
[kool g. rap]
I got a chance to get some money so Im takin it
No joke, because this bein broke shit just aint makin it
Cause I grew up in the fast line
See my pops ran the numbers and my moms held the blackjack games
Now Im able to leave the cradle
I dont remember the dinners, only the kilos on my kitchen table
Sittin right beside a pistol
And Im watchin my pops, pick up bricks made out of crystal
While he was countin the green
I seen nothin but strainers, containers, scales and rocks on a triple beam
People was too afraid to stick him up
Because he had the most notorious brothers to come and pick him up
When I reached ten years old
I never recalled seein any more money and drugs in the household
Cause now pops was on his feet
And to keep us from gettin hurt he kept his dirt in the street
And if he tried to attack, your familys wearin black
Because he just got your death, put on a contract
Another sucker to rub
Even my mothers walkin around packin a .357 snub
And many cops dropped dead
I seen a man pull out a pistol and blow off an undercovers head
Cause its hard to get by
And thats why, when youre young in the streets
You gotta live and let die
Some say this aint the life to choose
Rage is snapped away you get a page in the daily news
But I just wanna get paid off
Cause if I was workin a regular nine to five Id get laid off
Some people say, sellin weight, is a death date
But I cant wait, to set up shop, in the next state
I aint worried bout a brother tryin to take mines
Cause my plot comes with a hundred shot nine
Police are right on my heels
But Im always one step ahead of the punks makin dope deals
They cant stop me cause Im proper
And if they ever try to raid they better bring choppers or helicopters
I broke a lot of punks ribs
Dumpin they bodies in lots, then I ran and shot up the cribs
Because a brother aint fakin it
If theres a record for killin the most niggaz then yo Im breakin it
I wish a brother would flex
I spray him up and then take all of his money and give his girl sex
Thats how Im livin in the street
You either give a sucker two in the head, or youll be dead meat
Im sendin punks six feet deep
And gettin money in lumps, cause this aint twenty-one jump street
You wanna stop what I supply
Aiyyo, the hell with that, I gotta live and let die
Police, police! everybody down, everybody down!
Dont fucking move, get down! *beep beep*
Hey, where is everybody? *beep beep*
Look, theres nobody here *beep beep beep*
Whats that fucking noise? *beep beep beep!*
Its a bomb, its a bomb, lets go
Get the fuck out of here! *flatline sound*
You gotta live and let die *explosion*
Forget all that bullshit about savin the soul
Some chumpll pump your ass full of bulletholes
So Im out to make a killin
And all you suckers are chillin cause I aint just an ordinary villain
I got a rep for mass murder
If you look bigger, I just pull the trigger, a female I just hurt her
I got the .38 long
But a dame can get the same if shes comin out of her mouth wrong
And if you try to oppose this
Next time you see your mother shell be covered with roses
It aint about a fair fight
Because I only get open for smokin suckers in daylight
Another punk bites the dust
Cause I just bust blood out your butt like pus
The broke life I aint missin
Because now I got a lot, and thats more than a pot to piss in
And if Im sellin you kis
Just put the gs on the bed, and then go head and take a freeze
And while youre numbin your tongue with the yum yum
I pull out a gun, cause I want every last crumb
I put a slug in your face
Then I waits to start packin the trap back in the suitcase
Another punk had to fry
I dont want to do it but yo I gotta live and let die
