Ecstasy, coke
You say it's love, it is poison
School's where I learned they should be burned, it is poison
Physician's prescriptin' us medicine which is poison
Doctor's injectin' our infants with the poison
[Verse 1]
Religion misoverstood is poison
Niggas up in my hood be getting shot, given poison
In hospitals, shots riddle the block
Little children and elderly women run for they lives
Drizzlin' rain come out the sky every time somebody dies
Must be out my fuckin' mind, what is this, the hundredth time
Sending flowers to funerals, readin' rest in peace
You know, the usual, death comes in threes
Life is short is what some nigga said
Not if you measure life by how one lives and what he did
And funny how these black-killer companies is makin' money off us
Fast food, cola, soda, Skull and Bone crosses, it's all poison
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Religion misoverstood is poison
Sisters up in my hood try to do good given choices
When pregnant, drop out of school or have abortions
Stop workin', hopin' that they find a man that will support them
Up late night, on they mother's cordless
Thinkin' a perm or bleachin' cream
Will make them better when they're gorgeous
White girls tanning, liposuction
Fake titties are implanted, fake lips, that's life destruction
Light-skinned women, bi-racial, hateful toward themselves
Denying even their blood
I don't judge Tiger Woods but I overstand the mental poison
That's even worser than drugs, yo it's poison
[Hook]
Religion misoverstood is poison
Radio and TV poison, white Jesus poison
And any thoughts of taking me down is poison
Who want beef now
My heat shall anoint them, plaow
[Bridge]
Never to worry
All the wrong-doers got it comin' back to 'em a thousand times over
Every dog has it's day and everythin' flips around
Even the most greatest nation in the world has it coming back to em
Everybody reaps what they sews, that's how it goes
Innocent lives will be taken, it may get worse but we'll get through it
Y'all, be strong
[Verse 3]
The Chinamen built the railroad, the Indians saved the Pilgrim
And in return the Pilgrim killed 'em
They call it Thanksgiving, I call your holiday "hell-day"
Cause I'm from poverty, neglected by the wealthy
Me and my niggas share gifts, everyday like Christmas
Slay bitches, and party everyday like this is the last
I'm with my heckles, connecting and we hitting the lab
This is my level, fuck if it get you mad
It's all poison, all of my words to enemies it is poison
Rappers only talk about ki's, it's all poison
How could you call yourself MC's
You ain't poison
Think about the kids you mislead, with the poison
And any thoughts of taking me down is all poison
Who want beef now
My heat shall anoint them, plaow
[Hook]
What goes around comes around, my nigga
And what goes up, it must come down, my nigga
The soldiers found below the ground, my nigga
Just hold it down we older now, my nigga
[Verse 4]
This nigga Ike with the Iverson jersey, light-skinned with herpes
Fuckin' sisters in Harlem, Brooklyn and D.C
This is the problem cause he never tell em he got it
From lettin' fags suck him off, Rikers Island in '93
Drives a Benz, hangs at all the parties, all the concerts
Backstage where the stars be, rocking they shirts
In bitches faces like clockwork, what's your name, where you from
Chain blingin', thinkin' girls everywhere is dumb
Taking pride in ruining their lives
So they could never have babies and they could never be wives
He never used a condom. Give him head? He got ya
Met the wrong bitch and now he dead from the monster: AIDS
I contemplate, believing in karma
Those on top could just break and won't be eating tomorrow
I know some bitches who be sleeping on niggas' dreams. They leave
When that nigga blow, she the first bitch on her knees
Knowing dudes that's neglecting their seeds
Instead of taking care of em, they're spending money on trees
I pray for you, deadbeat daddies
Cause when them kids get grown it's too late for you
Now you old and you getting shitted on
It's all scientific, mystic; you know, the Earth and the stars
Don't hesitate to say you heard it from Nas
What is destined shall be
George Bush killer til George Bush kills me
Much blessings, be healthy. Remember:
What goes around comes around, my nigga
And what goes up, it must come down, my nigga
The soldiers found below the ground, my nigga
Just hold it down we older now, my nigga
