Lyrics

i'm supposed to be
the soldier
who never blows
his composure

even though i hold
the weight of
the whole world
on my shoulders
i ain't ever
supposed to show it
my crew ain't
supposed to know it

even if it means
goin' toe-to-toe
with a benzino
it don't matter
i'd never drag 'em
in battles
that i can handle

'less i absolutely
have to
i'm supposed to
set an example
i need to be
the leader
my crew looks for me
to guide 'em

if some s###
ever does pop off
i'm supposed to be
beside 'em
now ja said i tried
to squash it

it was too late
to stop it
there's a certain line
you just don't cross
and he crossed it

i heard him say
hailie's name
on a song
and i just lost it
it was crazy
this s### went
way beyond some
jay-z and nas s###

and even though
the battle was won
i feel like we lost it
i spent so much
energy on it

honestly
i'm exhausted and
i'm so caught in it
i almost feel
i'm the one
who caused it

this ain't what
i'm in hip-hop for
it's not why i got in it
that was never
my object
for someone
to get killed

why would i wanna
destroy somethin'
i helped build
that wasn't
my intentions
my intentions
was good

i went through
my whole career
without ever
mentionin'
and that was just
out of respect
for not
runnin' my mouth

and talkin' about
somethin' that
i knew nothin' about
plus dre told me
stay out
this just wasn't
my beef
so i did

i just fell back
watched and
gritted my teeth
while he's
all over tv

down-talkin' a man
who literally
saved my life
like f### it
i understand
this is business

and this s###
just isn't
none of my business
but still knowin'
the s### could
pop off
at any minute
'cause

there used to
be a time when
you could just say
a rhyme and wouldn't
have to worry about
one of your
people dyin'

but now it's elevated
'cause once you put
someone's kids in it
the s### gets
escalated
it ain't just words
no more is it

it's a different
ball game
you call names and
you ain't just rappin'
we actually tried
to stop the
50 and ja beef
from happenin'

me and dre had
sat with him
kicked it and
had a chat with him
and asked him
not to start it

he wasn't gonna
go after him until
ja started yappin'
in magazines
how we stabbed him
f### it 50 smash him
mash him and
let him have it

meanwhile
my attention's pulled
in another direction
some receptionist
at the source
who answers phones
at his desk has
an erection for me

and thinks
that i'll be
his resurrection
tries to
blow the dust
off his mic
and make
a new record

but now he's
f##### the game up
'cause one of the ways
i came up

was through
that publication
the same one that
made me famous
now the owner of it
has got a grudge
against me
for nothin'

well f### it
that m###########
can get it too
f### him then

but i'm so busy
bein' p##### off
i don't stop to think
that we just inherited
50's beef
with murder inc.

and he's
inherited mine
which is fine
ain't like
either of us mind

but we still
have soldiers
that's on
the front line
who's willin'
to die for us
as soon as
we give the orders

never to extort us
strictly to show
they support us
and maybe
shout 'em out in a rap
or up in a chorus
to show 'em
we love 'em back

and let 'em know
how important it is
to have
runyon avenue
soldiers up
in our corners

their loyalty to us
is worth more than
any award is
but i ain't tryin'
to have
none of my people
hurt or murdered
it ain't worth it

i can't think of
a perfecter way
to word it than
to just say that
i love y'all too much
to see the verdict

i'll walk away
from it all
'fore i let it go
any further
but don't
get it twisted
it's not a plea
that i'm coppin'

i'm just willin' to be
the bigger man
if y'all can quit
poppin' off
at the jaws
well then i can

'cause frankly
i'm sick of talkin'
i'm not gonna let
someone else's coffin
rest on
my conscience 'cause
