[Krayzie]
The name is Krayzie, big bad *** bone,
Wanted up north for all the gold that I stole,
Along with some cash I even took the mayor's daughter,
Now that there's kidnap, but she was with us so I brought her.
Dun got myself into a whole heap of trouble,
Double-crossed by the law so it's nobody to run to,
Yeah it's just me and my sawed-off shotgun,
I dun now call him 'Leatherface'.
I'm headed for the west heard they got a couple banks in town
That ain't been held up yet, well uh, I ought to make it by sundown,
I figure that's enough time for me to get the whole rundown,
So I continue my mission, it's gettin' dark
So now I'm watching for them *** injuns,
They like to catch up then they rob -n- split.
I'll be a rootin' tootin' shootin' *** fool, protectin' my chips.
All of a sudden, I heard somebody rumble in the bushes, stopped my horse,
"Whoa nelly! Who in the bushes, you better speak up,
Or I'mma let my shotgun's song sing out."

[Woman]
Who's this? Hope this ain't the law, draw out the bushes with my sawed-off shotgun.

[Krayzie]
"Come on out right now I'm gettin' angry."
Took a step back 'cause it could get dangerous.

[Woman]
"Please don't shoot it's just me Thug Queen Horse Stealer."

[Krayzie]
"Then why the hell is you hidin' in them bushes"

[Thug Queen]
"I'm wanted in 4 counties, for armed robbery, killed 2 sheriffs, 6 of his best men with my head,
Stole 2 horses, thought you was the law that's why
I jumped in the bushes."

[Krayzie]
"Goodness."
Now she was hotter than a barrel of fire but I could use her for the job so I told her to ride.
"Come on."

[Thug Queen]
"May I ask you what you headed to the west for?"

[Krayzie]
"I got a partner got a plan for some dough and if you're down you can pick up yourself a pretty penny.
Be in town in a minute now be sure if you're with it."

[Thug Queen]
"We be up before the sun rise got a stall(ion) here for your partner to ride hit the saloon before the moon shine down for whatever let's ride let's ride."

[Krayzie]
"These directions say we go to Tucson, Arizona.
When we arrive we'll cop a place we can bunk,
And meet my boy in the morning for details -n- hookup."

[Rooster crows]
[Krayzie]
"Rise -n- shine, good morning, howdy.
Nine o' clock we meet my boy in the saloon in the valley.
Now I dun came a long way and I don't wanna be late.

[Thug Queen]
"Tell him I'll make it to him, you know we ain't."

Move out! Giddy up giddy up giddy up [4x]

You better count your money [2x]

[Layzie]
"I'm peepin' Krayzie's 'Wanted' poster in the saloon,
So I assume it'll be trouble round here pretty soon.
Glanced across the room I seen this youngster gettin' ready to fight
But if he mess up tonight I think that Krayzie just might take his life.
So I approached him and I paused.
"Look man, I really don't wanna brawl, but won't you chill before them laws,
Come messin' up this master plan,
Since he already rowdy I'm just asked the man (dang).
You want some work well partner put in your bid
And by the way now what's your name, they call me Layzie the Kid."

[Other dude]
"The name's Powder Pete, can I get a 12 gauge!
Outlaw every day, on the front page.
Mister Kid, if you give me the low-down me and Blackjack,
Be ready for the showdown, with 2 double-barrels pointed at whatever,
We'll stick together, I'm pretty clever."

[Layzie]
"So saddle up, jump on the bandwagon because it's all goin' down."
I heard the guy runnin' the bar screamin' 'Krayzie's in town.'

[Krayzie]
"Now when we get to this saloon, you don't worry, wait outside.
Don't be stealin' nobody's *** horses."
Stepped inside the bar.
"Layzie Kid you son of a gun!"

[Layzie]
"Hey man I'm glad you made it safely, now let's go have some fun.
And this my partner Powder, he's a young gun.

[Powder Pete]
"Howdy."

[Krayzie]
"Mighty glad to meet ya son.
Oh yeah, you know I also brought a friend along, meet Thug Queen,
The horse peddler, straggler, just met her."

[Thug Queen]
"Howdy partner, already got the horses saddled up."

[Layzie]
"I hope you're good at robbin' banks like you rustle that cattle up."

[Powder Pete]
"Now y'all, it's gonna be gettin' dark real soon."

[Krayzie]
"I think you're right I say we move, come on let's."

Move out, giddy up giddy up giddy up [4x]

You better count your money [8x]

Mobb Deep - Survival of the Fittest [Explicit] --R.I.P. Prodigy-- Rest In Peace Prodigy (Albert Johnson) [ November 2, 1974 – June 20, 2017 ]. In an interview with Vibe in November 2000, Prodigy spoke about what inspired him to directly address his battle with sickle-cell anemia on the song "You Can Never Feel My Pain" from his debut studio album H.N.I.C. He attributes his nihilism to the "permanent physical suffering" caused by his lifelong battle with the condition.[

"Tupac, Ja Rule–a whole bunch of people talk about pain. And Tupac, he even said some shit about my sickle-cell [on his song "Hit 'Em Up"], so that inspired me to make a real song to show niggas what pain is."

—Prodigy, Vibe magazine, November 2000.
On June 20, 2017, it was reported that Prodigy died in Las Vegas, Nevada after having been hospitalized a few days earlier for complications related to his sickle-cell anemia. He was performing in the Art of Rap Tour in Las Vegas with Havoc, Ghostface Killah, Onyx, KRS-One and Ice-T when he was hospitalized. The exact cause of his death is yet to be determined.

Mobb Deep was an American hip hop duo from the Queensbridge Houses in New York City. The group consisted of Havoc and Prodigy and was "one of the most critically acclaimed hardcore East Coast Hip-Hop groups." They were known for their dark, hardcore delivery as exemplified in "Shook Ones (Part II)." Mobb Deep became one of the most successful rap duos in hip hop, having sold over three million records. Mobb Deep's net worth was estimated at $10 million USD. Prodigy passed away in Las Vegas, Nevada. He sucummbed to his long battle with sickle cell anemia.

Two of their albums have been critical successes; The Infamous (1995) and Hell on Earth (1996). The group briefly disbanded in 2012 but later reunited.

In 1992, before Mobb Deep was officially established, Havoc and Prodigy originally went by Poetical Prophets and released their first demo titled Flavor for the Nonbelievers which was promoted through the Unsigned Hype column of The Source magazine. In 1993, Havoc and Prodigy, released their debut album, Juvenile Hell, which was promoted by the single "Peer Pressure." Also that year, Havoc made a guest appearance on the Black Moon album Enta Da Stage on a song titled "U Da Man." In 1994 the duo released a single titled "Shook Ones Part 1".

The group saw its first major success with their second album, The Infamous, released in 1995. Mobb Deep catapulted to the top of the hardcore hip-hop scene through Havoc and Prodigy's straightforward narration of street life. In this album, Mobb Deep portrayed the struggles of living in New York City's Queensbridge Houses where Havoc grew up. Following the release of The Infamous, Mobb Deep became some of the most prolific artists of the East Coast. The production of this album was very dark and sample-based thanks to Havoc, who produced the beats from this point forward.[9] Furthermore, the hit single "Shook Ones Pt. II", a remix to the hit Shook Ones, received critical acclaim.

Mobb Deep's third album, Hell on Earth was released in 1996 debuting at number six on the Billboard Album Chart; the album continued the duo's portrayal of harsh street life while further pushing them to the forefront of Hip Hop scene along with contemporary East Coast Rappers like The Notorious B.I.G., Jay-Z, Wu-Tang Clan, Big L and fellow Queensbridge rapper Nas. Nas as well as Method Man and Raekwon of the Wu Tang Clan appear on 'Hell on Earth'.

In 1996, they appeared on the Red Hot Organization's compilation CD, America is Dying Slowly alongside Biz Markie, Wu-Tang Clan and Fat Joe among many other prominent Hip Hop artists. This compilation was solely meant to raise awareness of the AIDS epidemic among African American men and this compilation was heralded as "a masterpiece" by The Source Magazine, a Hip Hop publication. 1997 Mobb Deep was featured on Frankie Cutlass "Politics & Bullsh*t" album track title "Know Da Game" which also features Kool G Rap. In 1998, the duo collaborated with reggae dancehall artist Bounty Killer on the track "Deadly Zone" for the soundtrack to Blade. In 1999, they released the highly anticipated Murda Muzik album which, despite extensive bootlegging, had the majority of its songs unintentionally leaked. This resulted in delays in the official album release. When the album was officially released, it eventually debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and quickly received Platinum Certification and was further promoted by the popular single "Quiet Storm." Shortly afterward, Prodigy released his long-awaited solo album H.N.I.C in which he collaborated with fellow artists like (B.G., N.O.R.E.) and producers (including The Alchemist, Rockwilder and Just Blaze).

Lyrics:

Woke up quick at about noon
Just thought that I had to be in Compton soon
I gotta get drunk before the day begin
Before my mother starts bitchin' 'bout my friends
About to go and damn it went blind
Young niggaz at the pad throwin' up gang signs
Ran in the house and grabbed my clip
With the Mc10 in the side of my hip
Bailed outside and pointed my weapon
Just as I thought, the fools kept steppin'
Jumped in the fo' (6-fo) hit the juice on my ride
I got front back and side to side
Then I let the LP play
Poppin' new shit by NWA
It was "Gangsta Gangsta" at the top of the list
Then I played my own shit, it went somethin' like this :

Cruisin' down the street(s) in my 6-fo'
Jackin' the bitches, slappin' the ho's
Went to the park to get the scoop
Knuckle-heads out there cold shootin' some hoo's
A car pulls up, who can it be?
A fresh elkomino rolly Kilo G
He rolls down his window and he started to say
It's all about makin' that GTA

Cuz the boyz in de hood are alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your car
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' shit ...

[]

Down on B'z in the place to give me the pace
He said my man JB is on 3 base
The boy JB was a friend of mine
'Till I cought him in my car tryin' to steal an LP
Chased him up the street to call a truth
The silly mothafucka pull out a duz-duz
Little did he know I had a loaded 12 gage
One sucker dead, L.A. times first page

Cuz the boyz in de hood are alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your car
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' shit ...

[]

Butt ass hell and I wanna get ill
So I went to a spot where my homeboyz chill
The fellows out there - makin' that dollar
I pulled up in my 6-fo' and howlered
They greet me with a 40 and I start drinkin'
And from the 8-ball my breath start stinkin'
Love to get my girl, to rock that body
Before I left I hit the block party
Went to her house to get her out of the pad
Dumb ho' said something that made me mad
She said somethin' that I could'nt believe
So I grabbed the stupid bitch by her nappy ass weed
She started talkin' shit, would'nt you know?
Reached back like a pimp and slapped the ho'
Her father jumped out and he started to shout
So I threw a right-cross and knocked his whole ass out

Cuz the boyz in de hood are alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your car
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' shit ...

[]

I'm rollin' hard now I'm under control
Then wrapped the 6-fo' 'round the telephone poll
I looked at my card and I said oh brother
I throw it in the gatter and go buy another
Walkin' home and I see the G ride
Now Ket is drivin' Kilo on the side
As they bustin' to you they got pulled over
An undercover cop in a dark green over'
Ket got beaten for resistin' arrest
He sucked the pig in his head for wrippin' his kiest'
Now G is cut for doin' the crime
For the fence on the boy, he'll do some time

Cuz the boyz in de hood are alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your car
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' shit ...

[]

I went to get the mouth but there was no bail
The fellows start to riot in the county jail
Two dayz later in municiple court
Kilo G on trial straight cold cut a fork
Distruption of a court, said the judge
Only six years since my man did'nt budge
Bailer came over to turn him in
Kilo G looked up and gave a grin
He yelled out "FIRE!", then came Suzi
Then came suzi -
The bitch came in with a sub-machine Uzi
Police shot the bitch but did'nt hurt her
Both up state for attempted murder

Cuz the boyz in de hood are alwayz hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll bull your car
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't sayin' shit
