[Intro: Akon]
Yeah! Oh-ohh, yeah

[Chorus: Akon] + (Jadakiss)
Ay, the mayor sayeth the crime slowed down
That explains why there's so many cops in my town
I done did so many years in the struggle, man
And don't know how to live out the gutter, man
Them young'ns takin over the old land
And gang bangin done moved down South to expand (bang bang)
See all them lil' kids packin muscle, man (muscle)
And they take it real serious when they hustle, man (ha-hahhhh!)

[Jadakiss]
No father figure there so he been a bastard
Knee-deep in the street even when it's drastic
Them things come wrapped, still neat in the plastic
All he doin is bringin heat to his demographic
Thank God the O.G.'s is holdin him
Short fuse, his complex Napoleon
You can try to talk to him but he ain't there
He done did a lil' bid so he ain't scared
Yeah, but when he get to drinkin
That's when he get to thinkin 'bout them bitches got him tweakin
Baby mom's is freakin
Hustle all week to get fresh on the weekend, now he gone off the deep end
What up

[Chorus]

[Jadakiss]
Uh, learned how to clap before he learned how to stack
Now he doin 30-somethin years in the max
With numbers like that it take years to relax
And it's violent so it's mandatory years on the back
Ruthless, I'm just tryna tell you what the truth is
He ain't even wanna hustle, he just wanted to shoot shit
Get high, get some pussy, run around stupid
Really a good kid, he just always wanted to do shit
Drop on the jux you can give him a quick call
But kickin it with him is like talkin to a brick wall
Come from a good fam so his books stay right
He only 23, he got a chance to see daylight
What up

[Chorus]

[Jadakiss]
Uh, don't be playin 'em close
Keep the work away from the guns, keep the money away from 'em both
Keep it trill with your set, make 'em feel your respect
No matter what you do, never reveal your connect
Don't be runnin your mouth, you know what it is
If you ain't never tell it, how could they know what you did?
That thing on your waist, got that thing off the lot
You still gotta eat dawg if you bangin or not
Frustration build up then you gotta release
When the crime slow down the dollar increase
Hundred grand in the duffel, them young'ns will bust you
And they take it real seriously when they hustle
What up

[Chorus] - 2X w/o Jadakiss ad libs
