We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
|
[Violent J] |
|
The overwhelming workload that it takes |
|
The shakin' off snakes |
|
The pains and the aches |
|
Wrong moves and mistakes |
|
They disrupt, corrupt and distract you from your mission |
|
And all those who let go and spend their lives wishin and missin |
|
I couldn't listen in school, I felt I had a different callin |
|
But all everybody did was roll their eyes and start yawnin |
|
But this is real life and only you is livin through your eyes |
|
There are dreamers, those who want it |
|
And us, who won't be denied |
|
Its a struggle every day, success is far from fuckin free |
|
Unless you plucked it from a tree, with J and ICP |
|
Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J Refuse to Lose! |
|
Livin' proof do what you got and you can do what you choose |
|
[Shaggy 2 Dope] |
|
Hate to sit back on this track like a little bitch and remininsce <<<< |
|
But instead I'll kick a little history all about the hatchet |
|
By this time in the game, most motherfuckers fell apart |
|
In these years we still shinin and we now just gettin our start |
|
Inner City Posse jumped on the scene and we was mad crewed up |
|
In the end when shit got rough it was just the two of us |
|
When you was in the club gettin ya grind and ya sip on |
|
We was in the parkin lot gettin our flyers on |
|
Did my first show when I was sixteen |
|
It's still part of my scheme |
|
J holdin out a drive-thru window at Burger King to support our dreams |
|
It seemed like yesterday, the world wasn't ready for two clown freaks |
|
But we kept grindin |
|
Now who on whose dick, lil Bitch shit |
|
We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
|
[Monoxide Child] |
|
I woke up in the morning with my head on backwords |
|
Went from street livin to an underground master |
|
Went from sellin baggies in allies to sellin from here to Cali |
|
And rollin with the Psychopathic family |
|
I started up with Krazees hooked up with Violent J |
|
The rest is still bein written like a biography |
|
Don't think you know my story, cause there's too much to tell |
|
Just know that I've been underground and I've been doin well |
|
Since the days of makin tapes in the basement |
|
We came a long way, I'd like to see you do the same shit |
|
Monoxide, and I'm Twiztid with a Z |
|
Carnival representin' til I D-I-E |
|
[Madrox] |
|
We met ICP way back, touring once or twice |
|
They was real cool, Felt like we known 'em all our life |
|
They said You ever wanna side with them |
|
We was like hell yeah we down the ground with friends |
|
They put us out, this was way before the family era |
|
When we toured for three years with a t-shirt |
|
Gettin mixed response from the bleachers and show-goers |
|
Prepared for rock-throwers and flame-throwers we stayed focused |
|
In '98 we dropped our first LP |
|
Psychopathic presentin' Twiztid Mostasteless the CD |
|
Go out and get it bitch, shit is cold as ice |
|
So dope that we released it twice |
|
And we still here |
|
We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
|
[Blaze Ya Dead Homie] |
|
It started as a guest, I moved later to a real spot |
|
Worked behind the scenes before I really got a shot |
|
In the studio, twistin still need jsdflkjlk;jsdflkdfjdf |
|
My skills got me the deal off the CD you know it's dope |
|
But it was on now in '99, the first GOTJ |
|
Ya Dead Homie Blaze and ABK rippin the stage |
|
The first time I ever got to grind in the sunshine |
|
Six minutes shorter the EP's full play time |
|
Still confusin some, give love for One Less G |
|
That's when we moved to the streets and people started hearin me |
|
From Colton Grundy to Clockwork Grey my skills increased |
|
Don't believe me? Pick up my next CD |
|
[Anybody Killa] |
|
I keep it grindin like an old set of car brakes |
|
Started off with a duel player and casette tapes |
|
By '95 my life was frustrated so I developed my mentals and let the funk recreate it |
|
And then I hit the stage with my homie Blaze thuggin for life |
|
City to city tours under the light |
|
Straight outta Detroit grindin Warrior baby |
|
I ain't never gonna stop, my heat's never on safety |
|
This is Psychopathic bitch boy and we so sweet |
|
What you know about the label runnin under the streets? |
|
This be Anybody Killa homie, like me or not |
|
Over a hundred thousand sold bitch with one bout to drop |

For real |
|
We kept hustlin |

|
[Bonez Dubb] |
|
Mothafuckas don't trip I'm one of the youngest homies on the |
|
And keepin it grindin with a |
|
And on my way to the fuckin top |
|
Because we underneath the surface be prepared to be real hurt bitch |
|
We came from the gutter and now i'm fuckin your mother and workin it |
|
I know I'm only 24 up in this hoe but check it yo |
|
I was smokin it before some of y'all was even startin to grow |
|
Some of y'all don't even know |
|
So many shows by eighteen |
|
And by my twenty-first I was on the national scene |
|
And see, been given an oppurtunity to speak my words and yo |
|
Be keepin it wicked and run with the hatchet for sho so slow your roll |
|
My name is Bonez and this be O-T |

We murderin fucks til the sun comes up that's why they call us A.M.B |
|
[Otis] |
|
Hey homie I hope you listen to my rappin |
|
Cause rappin is all I have it's all that every fuckin mattered |
|
Your heart can get shattered your pockets can get fatter |
|
Just grind like me and mine and you'll shine like my family |
|
In the beginning my mission was to make it to the hatchet |
|
Then I did it and started laughin I grinded and look what happened |
|
My mind is not on this planet, cause y'all thought that we vanished |
|
But God's Hand got my back, and the game still gets me fuckin mad |
|
I start poppin off at the mouth when somethin bothers me |
|
You mothafuckers better give it up for R.O.C |
|
You mothafuckers better give it up for A.M.B |
|
DJ Clay mixtapes, gettin paid and makin haters bleed |
|
We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
|
[Boondox] |
|
All the blood and the tears I spent on over the years |
|
And all the time on the grind I conquered most of my fears |
|
Not knowin would I make it and was it worth the sacrifice |
|
Skippin meals and skippin bills i hoped that it was worth the price |
|
Of the love of my kids and would they hate me in the end |
|
For all the time I didn't spend i knew i'd have to make amends |
|
So kept the mike in one hand the other gripped on my glock |
|
Kept one eye on the prize the other fixed up on the clock |
|
It was a hustler in my heart who let me know i wouldn't fail |
|
Would I end up on the stage or would I end up in a cell |
|
Then one Monday afternoon I got that call from Psychopathic |
|
Put the pistol in the drawer and now I'm runnin with the hatchet [Woo Woo!] |
|
We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
|
[DJ Clay] |
|
I was sixteen young and was never put on |
|
But was put down strong and when Big Rude gave me a call |
|
Sayin that the wicked clowns had a party called Big Ballas |
|
And if I want to come spin and make a couple dollars |
|
St. Andrew's Hall [Yeah!] Remember it all [Yeah!] |
|
When I went into this game who knew I would last this long |
|
Then when '06 came around you can Fuck the Fuck Off |
|
It was me and Shaggy 2 Dope I was on my first tour |
|
And little did I know it was the first of many more |
|
Now I'm pushin out mixtapes for the juggalos |
|
And the love I get from them keeps me higher than some dro |
|
That's why I'm standin here, arms crossed just to let you know how we |
|
We kept hustlin |
|
We kept grindin |
