Lost In The Echo/Soldier [Extended Intro]

Yo', never was a thug, just infatuated with guns,

never was a gangsta, 'til I graduated to one,

and got the rep of a villain, for weapon concealin',

took the image of a thug, kept **** appealin',

willin' to stick out my neck

for respect if it meant life or death,

never live to regret what I said,

when you're me, people just want to see,

if it's true, if it's you

what you say in your rap's, what you do,

so they feel, as part of your obligation to fulfill,

when they see you on the streets

face to face, are you for real,

in confrontation ain't no conversation

if you feel you're in violation,

any hesitation'll get you killed, if you feel it, kill it,

if you conceal it, reveal it

being reasonable will leave you full of bullets,

pull it, squeeze it, till it's empty

tempt me, push me, *****es,

I need a good reason

to give this trigger a good squeeze...

Deep below

Each word gets lost in the echo

So one last lie I can see through

This time I finally let you

Go, go, go.

I love pissin' you off, it get's me off,

like my lawyer's

when the ******' judge let's me off,

all you mother******s gotta do is set me off,

i'll violate and all the mother******' bet's be off,

i'm a lit fuse, anything I do *****, it's news,

pistol whippin' mother******' bouncers, six-two,

who needs bullets

soon as I pull it, you sweat bullets,

an excellent method to get rid of the next bully,

it's actually better cause instead you murderin',

you can hurt em

and come back again and kick dirt at 'em,

it's like pourin' salt in the wounds

assault and get sued,

you can smell the lawsuits soon as I waltz in the room,

everybody halts and stops, calls the cops,

all you see is ******* comin' out their halter tops,

runnin' and duckin' out the Hard Rocks parking lot,

you'll all get shot whether its your fault or not, cause...

Go, go, go.

I spit it slow so these kids know that i'm talkin' to 'em,

give it back to these damn critics and sock it to em,

i'm like a thug, with a little bit of Pac influence,

I spew it, and look how I got you ******* rockin' to it,

you mother******s could never do it like I could do it,

don't even try it, you'll look stupid, do not pursue it,

don't ever in your life, try to knock the truest,

I spit the illest ****, ever been dropped to two inch,

so ticky-tock listen as the sound ticks on the clock,

listen to the sound of Kim as she licks on a ****,

listen to the sound of me spillin' my heart through this pen,

mother******s know that i'll never be Marshall again,

full of controversy until I retire my jersey,

'til the fire inside dies and expires at thirty, and

Lord have mercy on any more of these rappers that verse me,

and put a curse on authorities in the face of adversity, i'm a...
