Only The Strong Survive

Lyrics

[Intro: CL Smooth] Yeah, DJ Krush in the house, the Carmel kingpin CL Smooth And only the strong survive [Verse 1: CL Smooth] Actual facts, the ghetto reacts to warfare Real bullets miss you by your hair Survival of the fittest, hell for the three time losers The prisoners of enemy maneuvers Hold down the fort, cause life is short enough to get it taken Forsaken when your mental plane's breakin' Concealin' a 4 pound with every area we surround Cause clown, I get down for my crown Take it to the streets for the honor and respect Connect the lethal, plus my young guns are unbeatable Aidin' and abettin' the foul is a violation That's why my retaliation is premeditation The invitation is to run with a crew you can't do And too great to infiltrate from a nickel-plate I state: This be the illest ever known on a rush Swervin' with the krush [Verse 2: CL Smooth] Slip into the world of sheisty individuals A troubled man stalked by criminals Creepin' through the city, I step on the block to chat With thugs from all the drugs for fatcat Steppin' off the set, now hand on my tool Thinkin' how bad I wanna flip on that fool Times are wastin', chasin' these punks for petty loot When there is a real mission to execute I put the plan in effect, forget what you heard When you get the word from 1st and 3rd For real, I got the fam and all my soldiers to feed With the yardi gunslingers on stash puffin' weed Envision the prison that I walk through, leavin' any witness When I'm about to handle my business No escape from the duct tape and artillery Now tell me big man, where's the money? Ain't a damn thing funny [Verse 3: CL Smooth] Cops play for medals, killers play for corners And in the middle are your sons and all your daughters Who gives the orders to chaos and mayhem? Who has the proper guidance and mind to save them? From this cold world of heartless ghetto dwellers Pimps to prostitutes and dope sellers Fellas, strive to be the lead, not follow Ladies, you can be the queens of tomorrow Dig it, I want all that and more for my peeps in the struggle to jilter Food, clothin' and shelter Is essential to maintain the hardcore from the soft That pushed me to the edge but I can't fall off My battlegrounds keep the sound of babies cryin' Gunshots and cursin', can you feel my reel? Here's the deal, by any means necessary, go all out And keep this alive, cause only the strong survive
