Chorus:
Sticks and stones might break flesh bone
Yet nevertheless can't none of y'all touch me
Not even with a pole twelve-foot long
We beatin' ya
Might as well, join us
Trust me

[flesh-n-bone]
Lately, ever since someone's out followin' me around
And i'm feelin' little danger when i'm approachin'
And i've been ready, peelin' you stranger
Put 'em on a hanger, bang mo' murder
We broke in with no shame in my city
And it's time for to bail in this ?
And the people see me when i'm tryin' to escape
To get a breath or caught up
But can't get you gun right; slain - drop down
Will ya be found?
In the c-town, hear the buck, buck, pow
The glass sounds, stop and ya oughta wait in the ground
With a nigga's (shadow)
How many ways (in a me say) i could put you in a daze
Quick to hit 'em with the gauge
Nigga, you 'bout to get faded
Bitch, your bloody body's splattered all over the ground
Save yourself
? insane and it drive you crazy
Maybe my niggas willing to settle for somethin'
If nothin', dumpin' if you're tempted to play
I'm a real true, you're a real true
And act other niggas can't groove
Gotta get 'em on the grind, so make the move
We gonna put this shit together forever
Let's do this, nigga
Feel it, drop a nigga, this sidekick
Stop in to get your ready-to-ride trigger; peel it
All the brothers that fly to get the enemy fried
Tonight you die
You really think that you got it?
Better break it ?, get ready to go
On this mission for the land, and i'm murder 'em all
Roll, to try to save out souls

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
(thugs) be true, we stroll off in this land
And the people that be thuggin' it often cleveland style
Look, me and my niggas, we strangle and theivin', now
Leavin' out, prayin' for the northcoast
My city behind me, watch my back
All of my niggas on the clair, show love for me
Pass the weed, (get you hype) on the corner like it was ?
Wherever i roll through the hood, givin' up ?, hit the pound, stay real
Nigga where the money be, i'm a be breakin', nigga
Let's ? and got chill with my bills, sellin' herb with my thugs everyday
Let me show you the way we parlay
On the corner where the niggas see yay
Drugdealers and killas all day
Indeed, always roll with my hustla'z,
Tre, ii tru, and the shifters, afta maff, and ?
Niggas come and get some, hit th blunt of ?
Headed straight for the very top
Niggas crept on ah come up, and it'll never stop
To my family , i gots to give 'em props
Still lettin' off shots to the double glock
And i crept and i came in this thug game, man
For the love of mo' money
Niggas in this bitch, you gonna remain a thug, what?
Any my people still hungry
So here we swerve to the curb, hit that herb, hit that nerve
And i'm down to serve and splurge
Fuck around and get burned
Ya better learn

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
And ever since i was a youngsta thugsta puttin' it down
Always hustlin' to make a way
Nigga put up with the phases, made it, went through mazes
And i got all my fuckin' pay
Really want to try me, howl with the fifth dog
Pick up the sawed-off, nigga done stalked 'em
Make 'em look down the barrel, nigga pick up the shell
Off ya to hell or whatelse it costin' 'em
Chalkin' 'em, playa hater when ya try to put a stop to me
See it in your destiny, and we know it ain't never possible
But they keep at it to try to get it next to me
Arrestin' me with whip, pole,
Neck chain if you gonna bang my brain with sticks
Bricks, stones aint't strong enough to break
And shatter my bones that i swang
I see ya roll with gang, clang, yeah, i'm a catch you g's
Niggas hang in the "heart of it all" with the family
When i bang, nigga please (oughta) chill with my niggas everday
? marshall don't forget no swisha, got the cheese for the trees
Or whatever you need
We can fix ya
Did you ? now
Let's take a ride
Wanna see a playa fall tonight?
Keep a ? can you run up fast
And then a nigga really lost his life
'cause i never had time for the pettiness people
Don't get me wrong
Ain't the one to be takin' shit personal, baby
That's my sticks and stones be the name of this song

Chrous
Sticks and stones might break flesh bone
Yet nevertheless can't none of y'all touch me
Not even with a pole twelve-foot long
We beatin' ya
Might as well, join us
Trust me
(trust me, trust me, trust me)

Chorus:
The silence isn't over, but the flesh decrepitate
No time to hestitate, anticipation, much to be done
And it don't matter when you come
Really don't matter where you're from
Won't matter where you run

[flesh-n-bone]
Flesh breakin' 'em down, hittin' them up
Bottom line with your business
You gotta get a spot to handle it
Nigga, no slackin', lackin', me trackin'
Me ? is my best friendm there's my best friend
And i really can't serve and swerve and henessey
Seepin' down the side of the (cherokee jeep)
See the track in the back, strap 'cause them double double shots
Then, niggas goes (home) to get the ? when about the block
Shoot the spot, but put the muzzle on the kids who tried to
Oh, i think he better not start (hurt) shit on the double glock, dangerous
My niggas wanna have fun with you, man, and they perfect stalkers searchin'
Snatchin' up strangers, anyone
None remaining, i get 'em all finished
Niggas, wanna hear silence, makin' me ?, fuck it, set (pilliows) on fire
Thought it was over, niggas never the silence
I'm on the rise with a gun here i come
Niggas ain't no muthafuckin' where to run
Fin to get you some of this redrum, find nowhere to hide
Well, even though you tried, they got your body numb
Done, done, done, 'till it be one nine ninety nine, crime i
Find and then a niggas reap and cath your people by surprise
Drapped in a hoody, would you rather spared then snatch your life?
You still gonna pay the price, and i just might go pick up a knife and slice
And i'll pick off any who's ?, 'til your enemy dead
We gon' meet youm get my gun and trick or treat you with the bullets that fled
And to show you it's not ?, i go to beat you

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
A niggas been flippin' scripts over and over in the past
From the wasteland made up of heartless soldiers
If you really bold enough, shot it, and i might blow up, rippin' apart they
Shoulders
Go on', but the darkness rosed up, my people trippin'
If you late to pay my money back on time
And you better drop a dime or get fucked up
And your people won't find it all funny
Well, then if you caught in the act, and you dead wrong
Ever had to get dealt with, gimme a ny lil' reason or purpose
To pack a slug right in his head; hit it
Pain, no doubt that felt it, fuck up his health quick
Shit, but at least it be my honor
Ever now and then a nigga felt like he had to hit 'em like i'm jefferey dahmer
But yet i'm ready for battle, so get my armor, comin' for you
Thinkin' to get you, nigga wig-split you
What a pretty full blue moon
On the streets to get bodies soon
And i thought that we miss you
Every night we actin' fool
Better move yourself a little quicker
Fast, and if ya thought you'd get caught up in a wrath
No place to go stash what he left for me
Burner, hot incinerator, gotta 'em burnt to ash
'til he nothin' but dust, i'm gonna keep bustin', from cussin'
Murda let's them pull triggers
All of my niggas are devious
What, you really trust a family full of gravediggas?
Takin' no slaves, neither no prisoners
Here, there, gotta get 'em all finished
Anyone brave? i bet that you shiver, probably wet your pants
Every chance flesh get 'em all diminished

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
Stand up and at ease, about face, soldier
My troops come swoopin' through to do the shootin'
Refuse to cross me, punk took a loss, g
Didn't cost me, i'll be damned
Now toss me the mossy slam and the shells
(so the wind burn, saw a tint of light)
?, we spill 'em, tamin' fools
I load up my barrel, insane, who's to blame?
Flesh deck, at they chest, oh no, won't show none mercy
Betta run off in the hearse, ? have cursed on those who wanna hurt me
You feelin' it worst, feelin' up far, feelin' with the fifth dawg
Hear the niggas' triggers peel 'em, off in the coffin
Chalk around 'em white, bloody red
Afta maff, nigga, that's your ass
Buckin' with the boss in from cleveland, and achievin'
Goes on the west for heaven's sake i say
Yes, he created me, made me, reach for my pistol (gunshot)
And wonder where the demons clear my path
Receivin' that bullet path hit when i blast ya
And the niggas ? will outlast ya
Creepin on ah mo' come ups inflict for mo' cash
Get him, gone, but wanna bring it on?
Do you really, huh?
No, just take a long fall in the bottomless pit
As they see eternal droppin' down
And hit that ground, murda mo' ya, enforcer
Forcin' your so sure we're under sure not to call it war with warriors
Stories of flesh
And i got you eye-to-eye without a sign of death for the most of ya

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]

Livin life daily, all tha way

Tha solution's begun, gotta get yall, hit yall
Wit yo fellaz makin dollaz and cents

No lippin', i'm sippin, i'm tippin my ground, gettin first in my verse
Who got yo macho, shot yo kids, creepin up on yo crew
It's kinda hot, yall got yo bids, boy, and that how we do
What's tunnel mind it's soldiaz
I'm bought masterline at this line
These bookaz, that welfare line
And can forget that black on black crime
We livin, and driven, and giving them love
But what they do wit out heart
For takin and breakin and fakin then jacks
Boy ya tear'em apart
Just livin in ah world that's so so cruel
That's tha tape in yo deck
They take our money, rape our women, now come give you respect

[run] (sermon)
And i believe, a lot of us shouldn't condemn these rappers
Because if nobody would ah told me about god
The church folks would ah been talkin bad about me

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
Think bout tha in us too, me 1999
Than what would we do
We breakin it'll make ah change, fool
Do somethin knows quicker, it's all fake
Ya smoke tramps in our community flood
Wit ah master plan to get rid of ah sea me got crack
And all these diseases that make us immune
And ain't it rediculous
Look at us strugglin, hustlin
Gotta make ends meat to pay my bills
Gotta help ain't no grub on our grills
Stuffin to ge to me fillin, thats only foe real, though
Still, people feel me
So many of yall now diamonds on tha rough
Sho' nuff, better know us
When they get it, betta grip tight
Holdin my brothaz, we're marchin soldiaz
And i told ya
And it showed, decievin, caught him on camera
Some coppaz got no love, they see a thug
Comin up, steady peepin to sweeta
Foe see murd, they need go just
Wanna help tha weed trust
Don't even run to pull ah gun and pop it
Tha blacker together mens, gather strong at last
Controllin no mass, no more violence, gon' stop it
Grow up to be cloppaz, and i'm proud
Be keepin my lord's warch, and it's no
When you think it's sin, wanna lve by tha sword
Gotta die gash, ash to dust
They turnin that passin and not with tha less
Lil' easy my mentor, king
Handin over tha shoes, i go walkin in
Fill us up on gag, betta pass with tha cruel world take'em shed

Chorus

[reverend run]
Now i said, now here this
Thus sayesth the lord god
And i believe, a lot of us
Shouldn't even condemn these rappers
Because if nobody would ah told me about god
People would ah been
The church folks would ah been
Talkin bad about me
I believe we gon' have people like
Rev. snoop doggy dogg up here soon
We gon' have rev. 2pac
These brothaz need your encouragement
They do not need you to pull them down
I don't believe in bashin these people
That are out there on the street
I believe in encouraging them
I believe in bringin'em in
Because if nobody would ah helped me
I'd been messed up
Do unto others as you would want done to you
If you see ya brothaz and sista out there
On the street
And you know they back slittin
Don't just go tell sista so-and-so
You heard what happened on that child
Go and get her
Bring her in, and this is the reason you seen her
Cuz god wants you to go and get her
God wants you to love your brothaz and sistaz
Dis is not a game of hurtin each other
It's a game of helpin each other
You got to help one another
You got to love one another
You got to respect on another
We have such a crab mentality these days
You see somebody comin to the top ah the brow
You wanna pull'em down
But i believe we should help on another
I'm tellin ya right now, saints
I've given you my heart today
I'm lettin you know all the secret things that happened to me
It's not easy for to come out here and talk about
The things that happened in the past
But i want you to know somethin
That god has completely turned my life around
Let everyone stand
Give the lord a hand clap
Praise the lord

[flesh-n-bone]
You don't wanna see my flesh (flesh, flesh...)

Chorus:
It's nothin' but the bone in me
You don't wanna see my flesh bone
It's nothin' but the bone in me
You don't wanna see me

[flesh-n-bone]
Feel thug shit pumpin' out of cleveland
All up in your system, hittin it, and everybody move
No matter where you're from, come one and get with this
Here to make you party, body, so groove over to the glock
The spot, we got it poppin' all day to get through the night
Swisha, fill 'em on up with the icky, sticky, sippin' liquor got you nice
Whip out the lighter, flame on up
It be to completely ? me up
Everyone, have a nice time, get along with your people
Don't wanna hear people fuss or cuss
If they do, then i crush 'em
Break every bone off in his body
'cause all my people came here to have a wonderfultime, niggas
Everybody crashed the party
Once in awhile we can get a little wild
And ever now and then, i comin' out to show you how
In the land, my city, the way we put it down
You know what it is, how to get to my town
Listen to the rythym
Hear this sound: (sirens)
Put you deep into a motion that just don't stop
Feel them coppers come knockin' on your door
Get you ass on the floor
We jack 'til we drop
Props, sendin' out shots to my trues
Been down with that nigga flesh at the beginning and
Niggas together 'til the very ending
And i'm hit after hit, and i'm still winnin'
And you wonder what it is in me that you really wanna roll
Then see flesh gettin' busy with niggas that it be my thang
Nothin' but the bone in me

Chorus

[flesh-n-bone]
I grip me a pipe with my heater
Call upon it, when i need her
Feedin' bullets to spit on ya corner
Think to test me?
Baby, you's a goner, loner
Somebody shouda been done warned, now
When ya on the thug show, nigga flex
Check out the flesh, put it down
When your in the c-town don't fuck those
You simple-minded
Don't you find it complicated?
Checkin' the best style
So i'm out get ? tryin' to clear a ?
Start none, nigga want my forty
Get a light, my sud's froze cold
So off to economies, hit up the store
And i'd love to thank for keepin' the drink i see for me
Get me ides, get surprised, (copper stops .38) and mo' cheese
Get the with the gs, set a destination, we're facin'
Finally i'm here (i'm here)
Hit me as i go pissy-drunk, breath stunk, puff spliff after spliff
Chinese - eyes sunk shut, near me pass my beeron to the next man
Goin' up to meet a pretty lady to get my boogie on for the next dance
No ?, her intentions was to get money, and let's face it, shame on you, honey
Bitch made it known she wanna fuck me because i'm a bone
No threat, better yet i'm a pass up the ass and keep my cash
Leavin' women alone, and go stack up my bankroll
Flip paper, dollar, grab the dollar
Make me holler, feel it in me, nothin' but the bone

Chorus
