[Verse 1] Yo son, the purple haze, I'm about to blaze And put your brain waves in a daze The similar face portrayed a way to stay strivin' Devisin' mad schemes and cream Tryna stay alive in this heavy game, I'm survivin' Success blessed with fortune and fame The game, tryna maintain, keep my physical frame the same Let my name ring infinite, poetically 'cause energetically We makin' moves (What?), dominate the groove Show me proof I can soothe your pain and sufferin' Likе a bufferin', times is rough and tough for thin leathеr Got drug sellers tellin' tales, inhale and feel Terror hit your area when it rains, break out your umbrellas I dwell up in this, total sinner's sippin' Guinness Modern day offender, eliminatin' all contenders Reality-wise, you bear the eyes of a pretender When the heat starts bubblin', you doublin' back Trouble, that's got you strugglin' black, smugglin' crack Jugglin' to get a piece, feast and rise like yeast While police from the belly of the beast search to seize ya To interrupt your lifestyle amnesia You know the steez, connects overseas stackin' cheese I need the green paradise, a villain's prophecy While you could be anything in this world, as cold as ice Think twice before you motivate, create and pay the price It's your life, 'aight [Chorus] Life's a double headed knife, life's a double headed knife Life's a double headed knife, either you stab or get stabbed Either you paid or you pay the price [Verse 2] One's for my dreams, two's for my team Three for all my niggas tryna scam for the cream Some people scream (What?), jump, shout and holler for a dollar Cling to your collar, they wanna bite what they can't swallow A nigga status and his income get so many thing in this world Diamonds and pearls, girls in beds Some lost, I bet some, I guess the rest are left broken Stress provokin', so I toke a L to the brain My adolescents was the same, I used to roll with Beatnuts Rock a fake clean cut, V.I.C. and Coach from [?] Sort of strange how the world can change, nothin' nice I'm tryna get paid before I pay the price, but yo that's just my life, 'aight [Chorus] Life's a double headed knife, life's a double headed knife Life's a double headed knife, either you stab or get stabbed Either you paid or you pay the price Life's a double headed knife, life's a double headed knife Life's a double headed knife, either you stab or get stabbed Either you paid or you pay the price [Verse 3] Define the things in life, I wanna see in my world For the pearls and diamonds, fuck rhymin', I'm makin' moves Climbin' and prove far beyond the rhythms and grooves I'm sportin' jewels and packin' tools and it's a fact Mad niggas would get my back mafia style Countin' stacks that's never been taxed Pushin' the Macs, Beamer in the act Three car garage, lay out, catch a massage So large, peep a track sung by Mary J. Blige Camouflage apparel, conceals the head and double barrel I'm firm and from the straight and narrow, crooked pharaoh Me and the mic strike together like a bow and arrow, slayin' sparrows The world is shallow son and I don't even trust my shadow The never-endin' battle of life, either you get paid or else you pay the price [Chorus] Life's a double headed knife (It's like that, y'all), life's a double headed knife (It's like that, y'all) Life's a double headed knife, either you stab or get stabbed Either you paid or you pay the price Life's a double headed knife, life's a double headed knife Life's a double headed knife, either you stab or get stabbed Either you paid or you pay the price
