I ain't afraid to say, like you ain't afraid to hate
Wanna tell you face to face
Better turn or you won't see heaven's gate
Wanna go to war with the Mormons
Wanna take a bath with the catholics
Gonna find yo'self in a burning hell
Where them demons laughin'
And they got you and they hit you on the slow-mo
They got you suckers in a cell screamin', oh no
And so I write with my pen, hope you repent for your sin
Can't take your pills and bottle of gin in case you can't get in
Don't wanna see you burn, want to see you turn, baby
And if you don't, you'll be screaming like a little lady
Now do you hear me, Shady, 'cause it ain't all gravy
And one day wishing, and you screaming, Jesus Christ, save me
Burn baby burn, that's right, we said it
If you don't turn, you better not forget it
Burn baby burn, you wanna play with God
If you don't turn, you suckers think you hard
Burn baby burn, you know it's holy war
If you don't turn, my father's gonna settle the score
Burn baby burn, na na, now what? Na, na, now what?

I'm teachin' cats, how to live with wife and the kids
Not doin' time on the bids, 'cause son, I know how it is
I spent my time in Riker's Island too
Never seen a smiling crew, they wanna slither you
You know how Riker's Island do, dudes get in they face
Slithered and livin' with scars
The only dreams that they livin' is dreamin' life without bars
And son, they gotta wake up
And then they eat to keep they weight up
The stress got 'em losing their mind, about to break up
You rappers ain't feelin' me, say no room for me in the industry
But it's clear to see, what the indy is missin' is me
You rappers got the same flow, talk about the same moan
About your little dough, we know how the story go
I know just what I'm doin' and who I'm doin' it for
I spit it real for my kids, just like I spit it for yours
And for the ones feelin' like blowin' a hole in they head
Feelin' like they better off dead, ever since you got your deal
Ever since you made your mil', your gift was meant to heal
But still you wanna kill, talk about your purple pills
Rolling through your purple hills, I ain't gonna front
'Cause you phonies can't keep it real
You wanna holla back, then get at me, dog
Finally somebody got the gall
To spit it to y'all, let's ride out
Burn baby burn, that's right, we said it
If you don't turn, you better not forget it
Burn baby burn, you wanna play with God
If you don't turn, you suckers think you hard
Burn baby burn, you know it's holy war
If you don't turn, my father's gonna settle the score
Burn baby burn, na na, now what? Na, na, now what?

The ghetto ain't fabulous and yet you tellin' us
How you came straight from the gutter and how we gotta bust
I've saw behind the bars, you know they life is scarred
And how they 'bout to lose they life by fightin' on the yard
They lookin' through the fence, you on the other side
On MTV you makin' mil's and still you gonna lie
And you don't even know just what we goin' through
And if you do then you should come and help us make it through
Now have you ever had a partner to die, to see their momma cry
Kids at their casket with the tears in they eye
And if you do now, tell me how they gonna make it
And when they feel they can't take it
Because they know they can't shake it
You just another big lying talking brother
Don't care about these mothers or if we kill each other
Number 1 like Nell, you can be on TRL
But if you don't switch it up, you can still go to vroom
Burn baby burn, that's right, we said it
If you don't turn, you better not forget it
Burn baby burn, you wanna play with God
If you don't turn, you suckers think you hard
Burn baby burn, you know it's holy war
If you don't turn, my father's gonna settle the score
Burn baby burn, na na, now what? Na, na, now what?
