[00:00.100]Yeah, I'm territorial, man
[00:04.805]My city, my block, my people, my things, look
[00:11.664]Saint Johns my block has always shown love
[00:14.383]Shouldn't be a wonder why I talk about it so much
[00:17.354]They watched me grow up, they watched me get clowned
[00:20.142]They watched me swole up, they watched me slim down
[00:23.021]They know I'm no punk that ****s with the in-crowd
[00:25.854]They watch me throw knucks, they know I get down
[00:28.665]They watch me blow up, shit, they watch me spit now
[00:31.529]While I don't know much, I know I did them proud
[00:34.365]I get it tatted on my back, 'cause I back the city
[00:37.346]That way everywhere I'm at always have it with me
[00:40.341]I'm territorial, you know about my family history
[00:43.177]And loyalty is just encoded in my natural instinct
[00:46.393]So don't move unless we say
[00:48.394]All regrets be saved 'til my flesh decay
[00:51.047]Droppin' F.B.A., that's Family Before Anything
[00:53.998]Cross that, don't expect leeway
[00:56.713]I'm territorial, my city, my street
[00:59.616]My block, my people, my things
[01:02.112]I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us
[01:06.254]May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses
[01:09.636]My city, my street
[01:11.121]My block, my people, my things
[01:13.458]I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened
[01:17.623]And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses
[01:19.719]I won't work my life away for what a nine-to-five will pay
[01:23.021]Honestly I can say that ain't the life of me
[01:26.252]Night and day my life's insane
[01:28.355]But despite the pain in my domain, I am King
[01:32.031]I ride the beat like a train
[01:33.889]I've seen brighter days, but life's a peach, why complain?
[01:37.729]I'd rather go to County then sing
[01:39.686]Territorial, even my cell in County is clean
[01:42.646]I ain't a killer, man, picture a bounty on me
[01:45.417]Warning shots, before you cross that boundary, think
[01:48.571]'Cause that could cost the life of a man
[01:51.226]When I draw the line in the sand, where right or wrong is a plan
[01:54.122]If not the rifle to blam, I got the knife in my hand
[01:56.951]If it's just bare fists I'll fight you off if I can
[01:59.747]This my block, that's yo' street, rep it
[02:02.701]My big guy Josh, that's my co-defendant
[02:05.838]It's my work, they should hold me separate
[02:08.410]But I'd rather die first than give the police leverage
[02:12.022]I follow wherever my life's pointin' me
[02:14.576]Defendin' my ground, that's my life's point to me
[02:17.269]Illmaculate never conflicted with my loyalty
[02:19.989]When in his absence, consider me vice royalty
[02:23.907]I'm territorial, my city, my street
[02:26.761]My block, my people, my things
[02:29.204]I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us
[02:33.405]May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses
[02:36.827]My city, my street
[02:38.124]My block, my people, my things
[02:40.622]I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened
[02:44.787]And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses
[02:47.731]I'm of the rarest breed, they should never dare to speak
[02:50.250]In my presence, their cups are full and they're scared to drink
[02:53.122]I give 'em clarity
[02:54.523]I choose my words like my friends: carefully
[02:56.896]And back both with sincerity
[02:58.875]Steppin' back from the mirror, I need air to breathe
[03:01.671]You know what I mean, you know what I mean
[03:04.566]Standin' there [?] twenty-fifth hour
[03:07.545]Money clip out, in a drunken fit soured
[03:09.820]Ain't nothin' left that kills you once it gets counted
[03:12.716]I'm familiar with the feeling when your hustle gets doubted
[03:15.806]Lately it just seems there's a bunch of shit poutin'
[03:18.467]Certain people, when I see 'em, beat the ****in' shit out 'em
[03:21.180]Don't force me to lose control, 'cause truth be told
[03:23.764]I treasure the lives of those close to me more than I do my own
[03:26.638]So I swore that I'd put the chrome to your forehead prob'ly
[03:29.762]Try to **** with my fam? Over your dead body!
[03:32.504]I'm territorial, my city, my street
[03:35.334]My block, my people, my things
[03:37.801]I'm territorial, you complain when you brush past us
[03:42.003]May the Lord forgive you for your trespasses
[03:45.152]My city, my street
[03:46.765]My block, my people, my things
[03:49.187]I'm territorial, I don't wanna look at what happened
[03:53.370]And may the Lord forgive me for my trespasses
