    Cowards we ain't cut from the same cloth

    You a 5M6 nigga, I ride your bitch nigga

    17

    You fuck with the wrong one this time

    Block noteUses a degrading label to strip status

    Target50 Cent

    MeaningWhat it means: In “You a 5M6 nigga, I ride your bitch nigga,” Murder Inc. Records replaces 50 Cent's chosen public identity with the degrading label in the quoted bar, making contempt—not neutral description—the point of the line. Why it was said: The record belongs to the long-running conflict between Ja Rule and Murder Inc. and 50 Cent's camp. The dispute widened to include G-Unit, Eminem, Dr. Dre, DMX, Busta Rhymes and others through affiliations, response records and personal accusations. The insult supplies listeners with a short rival definition of 50 Cent; repeating that definition is meant to damage the authority the target brings into the feud.

    And I promise you

    19

    You be the next nigga they pay homage to

    20

    And they gonna find you somewhere in a vacant lot

    21

    With the garbage, I'm a murderer so I'm heartless

  7. 22

    I drop the top on the CL420 as I

    23

    Swallow Henny, gettin' head from your hunnie

    24

    And before I let you hit me, I hit you

    25

    And split you, leavin' you for the paramedics to get you

  8. 26

    [Chorus: Tah Murdah & Black Child]

    27

    When shit gets ugly

    28

    It's back to the block fuckin with them custies

    [Verse 2: Black Child]

    36

    I spit venomous murderous shit with the innocence

    37

    Of a child, in the penal, foul, and official

    38

    Futuristic, chick shit, black big dick

    39

    From mistresses, we roll triple sixes

  11. 40

    That's back-to-back Benzes, my friends is my enemies

    41

    They feel the energy like it's ten of me

    42

    Murder's the remedy when the henny's in me

    43

    I'm unfriendly in the club where the women be

  12. 44

    Sippin Italy, feelin' me, killin' me, for the Benji's

    45

    Not the broads in my bed

    46

    I can't front, I love them whores that give me head

    47

    I like my presidents dead, and I can't stand the feds

  13. 48

    I got mansions with saunas, while niggas on the corner

    49

    And laughin' at the police when they can't find my burner

    50

    I like cars with a stash box, cash, and drop-top

    51

    I smash the block, nigga blast the cops

  14. 52

    [Chorus: Tah Murdah & Black Child]

    53

    When shit gets ugly

    54

    It's back to the block fuckin with them custies

    62

    When shit gets ugly, in the purse where the snub be

    63

    Murderous bitch, give a fuck if you hate or love me

    64

    Feel you above me, bitch but down inside

    65

    What chick you know hit strips and broke down fives

    Block noteTurns money and possessions into leverage

    Target50 Cent

    MeaningWhat it means: In “What chick you know hit strips and broke down fives,” Murder Inc. Records contrasts financial power or possessions with 50 Cent's alleged lack of money, access, or control. Why it was said: The record belongs to the long-running conflict between Ja Rule and Murder Inc. and 50 Cent's camp. The dispute widened to include G-Unit, Eminem, Dr. Dre, DMX, Busta Rhymes and others through affiliations, response records and personal accusations. The comparison converts status into material evidence and is meant to make 50 Cent's success claims look hollow beside something listeners can picture and measure.

    72

    Yeah, Yeah

    73

    May the lord be with niggas who shout my name in vain

    74

    I'm a Murderer motherfucker, you nigga, loose change

    75

    I get head in the whip, probably from your bitch

    Block noteTurns sexual access into humiliation

    Target50 Cent

    MeaningWhat it means: In “I get head in the whip, probably from your bitch,” Murder Inc. Records uses a sexual claim or joke to deny 50 Cent control of an intimate relationship and to make the opponent look publicly rejected, displaced, or embarrassed. Why it was said: The record belongs to the long-running conflict between Ja Rule and Murder Inc. and 50 Cent's camp. The dispute widened to include G-Unit, Eminem, Dr. Dre, DMX, Busta Rhymes and others through affiliations, response records and personal accusations. The point is provocation rather than romance: bringing private access into the record raises the emotional cost of the feud and pressures 50 Cent to answer a claim that an audience can easily repeat.
