Get It In Blood Lyrics - Infamous Mobb Deep - Mobb Deep

I'm yawning while I'm waking to the early morning gunfire 

Another day another scar to require 

Jumped out my bed, tried to break my alarm 

Took a shower, and then I strapped on my firearm 

Grabbed my Pelle Pelle cause I wanna look fly when I die, 

But it ain't my turn to say goodbye 

How do I know? Some people call it instinct 

I like to call it my luck, who gives a fuck 

I'm stuck, in this environment and can't depart from it 

And if I try I always end up back where I started 

Plan A, square 1, there's no escapin' 

So I've come to realize my truth 

Tryna live my full life until my time is through 

Clocks tickin', so I don't got no time for you 

As I head outside, amongst the rest of the animals 

Is where I feel relaxed and safe and I can stand still 

It's sorta like a family bond 

We gather up all the soldiers and form into an ignition 

A swarm of kids, now it's on again, drinking straight from the bottle, warm gin dripping down my chin 

For the ones securing, you can't win against 25 niggas bent up with mac 10 semi-automatics, full-addicted crime addicts 

So long as there is cash involved, I gotta have it 

There's many different levels to the criminal mind 

Either you in it for the money or you wasting your time

My destiny will be the death of me 

Forever loving my peoples, hustling 

It's only right, niggas be juggling to survive 

It's only crime that provides for me 

So I resort to puffing dimes and dreaming of pushing a ride 

Negative thoughts fill my brain but it's the projects to blame 

Niggas forever getting loot while standing out in the rain 

So when the sun shine, niggas will be writing a rhyme 

And if a nigga owing, blood is how I'm taking mine 

As I climb the ladder, of success with techs 

Though I rather not have to watch my back get threat 

But it's like that, so while you just fucked, getting touched, 

Your man wasn't aware, that's why that nigga got bucked 

I realize open my eyes once this shit got real 

There's mad drama on the Hill when niggas getting blue steel 

I love my niggas for that, we keep it real, get loot 

And our identity is wearing army certified suits 

Most def, my people hold me down whenever with me 

Talking all that bullshit but it's the gats the rules the streets 

Survival of the fittest automatics recommended 

Given a life sentence to crime until my life is ended 

Photos 

Niggas wanna point guns in my face, so what? (What? What?) I'm taking mines in blood 

Niggas forever talking shit, so what? (And what?) I'm taking mines in blood 

Try to jam me on pack, so what? (And what?) I'm taking mines in blood 

Niggas running out their mouth, so what? (Motherfucker) I'm taking mines in blood 

How we do it, how we do it. (We taking ours in blood x2) 

How we do it, how we do it. (We taking ours in blood x2) 

We taking ours in blood. This city got me trapped like an animal with criminal thoughts 

I can't seem to turn away from this unknown force 

If only I can lay my hands on the source of my trouble 

Then maybe I can heal my scar before it bubbles, 

It's like a play, and there ain't no cure 

We observe this world's filth, therefore we're un-pure 

My life is like a bad dream I can't seem to shake 

Only my peoples who are equal understand or relate 

The way we live is never planned, it just happened that way 

So until tomorrow I'll just be surviving today 

I'm just another man, on this planet living for death 

Pops gone, I had to learn to be a man myself 

But I, don't stress that 

He did his dirt, now he pays back waiting in a federal laid back 

Pops, times is different and things ain't the same 

It's worse than ever, to get paid we do whatever 

See some rather achieve goals and be a scholar 

I rather get locked like you, earning a 6-digit dollar 

Making the desert bird holler 

Doing white collar crimes, but the fed time is hard to swallow 

And digest so I protest the pen 

I rather die before the jail cell sucks me in 

And my peoples we all share the same thinking 

We all the same on the same tempo, making cowards perpetual 

Pull out the tech, automatic metro 

My shots chase you 'round corners, leaving your family a bunch of mourners 

And I'm all-around, point as that, if you feel me you're guaranteed something you can feel back 

Kid, you don't know me, you don't wanna know me 

You tried to blow me your weak side just showed me 

Stepped out my door on 41st Side at 12, 

Didn't see my crew around so I got bent for search, 

I had to jet back upstairs so I can stash my 9 

It was a Friday night Rikers had it bad one time 

Cause niggas getting bagged on a regular son 

D's like "Fuck the drugs, all we want is the guns," 

So I proceed with caution, eyes open whenever walking 

Niggas be ass talking then be victims of extortion 

Hold myself down the only way I know 

Niggas pumping back in streets, in debt cause they owe 

Street life is like a trial, ass out if you blow 

The maximum is death son you know how that go 

Got me on point, paranoid for life 

That's why I walk the street with heat especially at night 

I represent the North side I hold the title and pride 

And when its on, I use the infrared for guide 

Aim it at your temple, with no remorse and never sentimental 

My crew is cold-hearted from all the foul shit we been through 

Surviving shootouts, bullets hitting the fence, sparking, 

Buck my fingers, with guns niggas I'm marking til the blocks darkened 

Doing my thing, let my gun clap 

It's like that!
