Lyrics

[Chorus] Branded Scorned is the one who ran (I need y'all to listen to this) What do you do when you're branded (Listen), and you know you're a man? Wherever you go, for the rest of your life You must prove (Yea...), you're a man [Verse 1] See now I'm back wit the force, read about the kid From the front to the back of The Source You see me back on the course Scream on every beat untill my voice get crackled and hoarse Front seat niggas never sit in the back with a boss Fuck the fact that it cost, the pricetag of the Porsche Will cost ya life, have ya motha feel an immaculate loss *Breath* But of course, come and speak to the best And watch me spit a jewel sharper to carve the meat of your flesh You lookin weak in the chest, you see the street is a test Women on the stoop smoking holding a seed to they breast You see the street is a mess Strugglin holdin a couple pounds of weed then the rest Now I proceed to the rest of my niggas Keepin it fresh Though we must stay on the grind I superseded the stress We always seem to finesse from the East to the West You Know we w-w-we keep the teflon from the street to the vest Kill that nigga slow like how you get defeated in chess Got you under pressure--hairline receded effects Hot air niggas I only feel the heat of your breath Rap niggas beef in their album, probably needed the press And as a man I never found the slightest need to impress Another man because I'm proud and I believe that I'm blessed But yo, I always found the need to address these weaker niggas That speak to the street always keepin the people abreast Now you've been- [Chorus] Branded Scorned is the one who ran What do you do when your branded and you know you're a man? Wherever you go, for the rest of your life You must prove, you're a man [Verse 2] Higher science and I'm changin the crime in Watch my son 'cause you'd be fucking with the child of a Giant Im in a place stuck between bein lovin and violent, *voice switch* Becomin more of a threat when I move subtle and silent Then set it off to be the only one to quiet the riot My destiny's the only thing between the sky and the pilot Relate, it's like bustin a 3-8 Be late, I be takin most of the brick leaving a pile outta shape I never quit watching these niggas try to hide they mistake Takin a shit watching they body floatin by in the lake Make it quick you weak niggas better try to escape And create the quickest way to reach the fire escape Snitch niggas always quick to go and lie on a tape But it's okay 'cause Super Hero niggas die with a cape It's so great to watch them finally break, stand aside from the fake Street niggas gotta slide for the take Bein broke and not bein able to buy me a steak Stacking my paper so see now I can buy an estate So I rely on the love and I reply to the hate So much pain in the struggle my whole body'll ache...come on... From the gates, so awake that was the plan of my fate Now I'm straight...got me my OWN knife and fork on my plate Wanna scorch a debate, wait...do me a favor nigga just remember The date 'cause you been... [Chorus] Branded Scorned is the one who ran What do you do when your branded and you know you're a man? Wherever you go, for the rest of your life You must prove, you're a man
