The Watcher (Album Version (Edited))

Things just ain't the same for gangstas
Times is changing, young niggas is aging
Becoming OGs in the game and changing
To make way for these new names and faces
But the strangest things can happen from rapping
When niggas get wrapped up in image and acting
Niggas get capped up and wrapped in plastic
Zipped up in bags when it happens, that's it
I've seen 'em come, I've watched 'em go
Watched 'em rise, witnessed it and watched 'em blow
Watched 'em all blossom and watched 'em grow
Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough
Best friends and money I lost them both
Went visited niggas in the hospital
It's all the same shit all across the globe
I just sit back and watch the show
Everywhere that I go
Ain't the same as befo' The watcher
People I used to know
Just don't know me no mo' The watcher
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know The watcher
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low I watch
I moved out of the hood for good, you blame me
Niggas aim mainly at niggas they can't be
But niggas can't hit niggas they can't see
I'm out of sight, now I'm out of they dang reach
How would you feel if niggas wanted you killed
You'd probably move to a new house on a new hill
And choose a new spot, if niggas wanted you shot
I ain't a thug, how much 2Pac in you you got
I ain't no bitch, neither
It's either my life or your life and I ain't leaving, I like breathing
Nigga, we can go round for round
Clip for clip, shit, fo' pound for pound
Nigga, if you really want to take it there, we can
Just remember that you ****ing with a family man
I got a lot more to lose than you, remember that
When you wanna come and fill these shoes
Everywhere that I go
Ain't the same as befo' The watcher
People I used to know
Just don't know me no mo' The watcher
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know The watcher
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low I watch
Things just ain't the same for gangstas
Cops is anxious to put niggas in handcuffs
They wanna hang us, see us dead, or enslave us
Keep us trapped in the same place we was raised in
Then they wonder why we act so outrageous
Run around stressed outand pull out gauges
Cause every time you let the animal out cages
It's dangerous to people who look like strangers
But now we got a new era of gangstas
Hustlers and youngsters living amongst us
Lookin' at us, now calling us busters
Can't help but reminisce back when it was us
Nigga, we started this gangsta shit
And this the mother****ing thanks I get
It's funny how time flies
I'm just having fun just watching it fly by
Everywhere that I go
Ain't the same as befo' The watcher
People I used to know
Just don't know me no mo' The watcher
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know The watcher
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low I watch
The watcher
The watcher
The watcher
The watcher
The watcher
The watcher
