Even though the pistol in my hand, I'm a businessman
But first these words I have to say
Came a long way from the place that I started from
When you scream and curse my name
Go ahead, spit it out, that's right, get it out
Put you on track where you just, you was out of line
Prepared, never scared, had to peak at my pinnacle
We must go our separate ways
It's not that I don't hear you
It's just that I don't feel you
We must go our separate ways
Without you, I'll do better
Ever seen a man's last breath beaten out of him?
Yeah, stop askin' where the fuck I'm at, yeah
Nigga, you invade my space
Ridicule, try to downplay, try to minimize
Nigga, you invade my space
People grow apart, don't expect you to understand
Get a life, nigga, I got mines, know'mtalkinbout?
It's pitiful, you can never bang with the criminal
Nigga, you invade my space
I'm alge-ballin', dumb niggaz can't add it up
This cannot continue
All my people fightin' for they soul, you are not alone
This cannot continue
Did a gang of shit, I'm surprised that I'm still alive
Tryin' to see where I'm at
Hooked on a brand new high called monopolize
But first these words I have to say
Forever on my grind, you despise and belittle it
All these rappers comin' out, ain't nobody showin' up
Fishburn's yellin' wake up, open up my eyes
(You invade my space)
And criticize when you on your grind, so I realized
Nigga, you invade my space
I know we don't see eye to eye, you ain't never lied
It's just that I don't feel you
It's not that I don't hear you
Three wheels, lock it up, ammo, stock it up
It's not that I don't hear you
Here's a little tidbit, X rock that real shit
Cock back, back 'em up, fuck what you throwin' up
Yeah, blacked out, tatted up, let's go, saddle up
It's not that I don't hear you
Let's part ways and then pray for better days
Without you, I'll do better
Dump like a L.A.P.D. cop, overkill shit
Without you, I can do better
Side by side on the bottom of a slave ship
We must go our separate ways
Without you, I'll do better
You the king of the streets? Well, I ain't heard none of that
So I can respond, nigga, fuck what you talk about
But first these words I have to say
You know that young shit, the 'Hey nigga, where you from?' shit
But first these words I have to say
This cannot continue
Mentally you still shackled up on some lame shit
The shit starts in your heart, then spill out your mouth
(Nigga, you invade my space)
We should part ways 'fore somebody catch a homicide
Hate manifest from the inside out
Seems to be the theme in the land of the Philistine
Now that I found that my path is original
Never waste my pearls on the swine and the ignorant
Frank Sinatra hustle, Rat Pack, 'Did it My Way'
Tryin' to be where I'm at all the fuckin' time, c'mon
Drop like a guillotine, money over everythin'
And I ain't got the time to fuck around with the dumb shit
Don't believe them lies from them guys that you idolize
Recognize, lost a lotta love when my momma died
That's why it's time to roll, get where I gotta go
I see you tryin' to stand up but you don't stand out
(You invade my space)
When you scream and curse my name
I'm not like you, but you think we identical
Yeah, knowhatI'msayin'?
When you scream and curse my name
It's not for niggaz 'cause George Bush comin' after us
Just like the South say, watch what your mouth say
I'm the odd man out, watch it all pan out
It's just that I don't feel you
It's just that I don't feel you
(Nigga, you invade my space)
I realize somebody 'bout to die, so I came to say
When you scream and curse my name
Man, where your talent at? Show me where your balance at
